This research used a pig model of heart attacks. In a large-animal model study, researchers have found that heart attack recovery is aided by injection of heart muscle cell spheroids derived from ...
The pig cardiomyocyte cells also showed upregulation of three signaling pathways—the Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase pathway, the HIPPO/YAP pathway and the Transforming Growth Factor Β pathway.
