Stem Cell Factor Gene Transfer Improves Cardiac Function After Myocardial Infarction in Swine

Background—Stem cell factor (SCF), a ligand of the c-kit receptor, is a critical cytokine, which contributes to cell migration, proliferation, and survival. It has been shown that SCF expression increases after myocardial infarction (MI) and may be involved in cardiac repair. The aim of this study w...
