In Vivo Silencing of the Transcription Factor IRF5 Reprograms the Macrophage Phenotype and Improves Infarct Healing

Objectives The aim of this study was to test whether silencing of the transcription factor interferon regulatory factor 5 (IRF5) in cardiac macrophages improves infarct healing and attenuates post–myocardial infarction (MI) remodeling. Background In healing wounds, the M1 toward M2 macrophage phe...
