AHA Scientific Sessions 2026 Abstract
A heart support cell group sustains nerves and pumping in mice
Loss of the cell group reduced the share of blood pumped out of the left ventricle per beat from 84.0% to 68.8%.Loss of the cell group reduced the share of blood pumped out of the left ventricle per beat from 84.0% to 68.8%.
Mouse studyMechanisms
Who was studiedMice, against control mice
What changedEjection fraction fell from 84.0 ± 1.3% to 68.8 ± 3.6% with loss of the cell group
The catchOnly 7 mice per group in the pump function test
