A microRNA program regulates the balance between cardiomyocyte hyperplasia and hypertrophy and stimulates cardiac regeneration

Myocardial regeneration and proliferation of heart muscle cells is limited to a short period after birth early postnatal life, after which heart muscle cells can only grow in size and not in number. Here, the authors identified that the expression level of an endogenous microRNA cluster in heart mus...

Sumario:Myocardial regeneration and proliferation of heart muscle cells is limited to a short period after birth early postnatal life, after which heart muscle cells can only grow in size and not in number. Here, the authors identified that the expression level of an endogenous microRNA cluster in heart muscle promotes the passage of the proliferative state to adult heart growth, and modulating the expression of this cluster can stimulate heart regeneration after myocardial infarction.
