A New Ex Vivo Model to Study Cardiac Fibrosis in Whole Mouse Hearts
Fibrosis is a characteristic of many cardiac diseases for which no effective treatment exists. We have developed an ex vivo flow system, which allows induction of cardiac fibrosis in intact adult mouse hearts. Lineage-tracing studies indicated that the collagen-producing myofibroblasts originated from the resident fibroblasts. The extent of fibrosis was flow rate dependent, and pharmacological inhibition of the transforming growth factor beta signaling pathway prevented fibrosis. Therefore, in this powerful system, the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying cardiac fibrosis can be studied. In addition, new targets can be tested on organ level for their ability to inhibit fibrosis.
期刊介绍:
JACC: Basic to Translational Science is an open access journal that is part of the renowned Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC). It focuses on advancing the field of Translational Cardiovascular Medicine and aims to accelerate the translation of new scientific discoveries into therapies that improve outcomes for patients with or at risk for Cardiovascular Disease. The journal covers thematic areas such as pre-clinical research, clinical trials, personalized medicine, novel drugs, devices, and biologics, proteomics, genomics, and metabolomics, as well as early phase clinical trial methodology.
