Elucidating the changes in the heterogeneity and function of radiation-induced cardiac macrophages using single-cell RNA sequencing

PurposeA mouse model of irradiation (IR)-induced heart injury was established to investigate the early changes in cardiac function after radiation and the role of cardiac macrophages in this process.MethodsCardiac function was evaluated by heart-to-tibia ratio, lung-to-heart ratio and echocardiograp...
