Beneficial effects of selective HDL-raising gene transfer on survival, cardiac remodelling and cardiac function after myocardial infarction in mice
Post-myocardial infarction (MI) ejection fraction is decreased in patients with low high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels, independent of the degree of coronary atherosclerosis. The objective of this study is to evaluate whether selective HDL-raising gene transfer exerts cardioprotective...
