Microenvironment Stiffness Amplifies Post-ischemia Heart Regeneration in Response to Exogenous Extracellular Matrix Proteins in Neonatal Mice

The cardiogenesis of the fetal heart is absent in juveniles and adults. Cross-transplantation of decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) can stimulate regeneration in myocardial infarct (MI) models. We have previously shown that dECM and tissue stiffness have cooperative regulation of heart regen...
