Placental Growth Factor Promotes Cardiac Muscle Repair via Enhanced Neovascularization

Background/Aims: Transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) improves post-injury cardiac muscle repair using ill-defined mechanisms. Recently, we have shown that production and secretion of placental growth factor (PLGF) by MSCs play a critical role in the MSCs-mediated post-injury cardiac mus...
