MicroRNA-221 Is Cardioprotective and Anti-fibrotic in a Rat Model of Myocardial Infarction
Reduced myocardial miR-221 expression is associated with severe cardiac fibrosis in heart failure patients. We aimed to demonstrate its mechanisms in cardioprotection and remodeling following myocardial infarction (MI). Using in vitro hypoxia and reoxygenation (H/R) of H9c2 and rat cardiac fibroblas...
