Follistatin‐like 1 promotes cardiac fibroblast activation and protects the heart from rupture

Follistatin‐like 1 (Fstl1) is a secreted protein that is acutely induced in heart following myocardial infarction (MI). In this study, we investigated cell type‐specific regulation of Fstl1 and its function in a murine model of MI. Fstl1 was robustly expressed in fibroblasts and myofibroblasts in th...
