  • Myocardial remodeling in response to left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implant

    Homo sapiens Homo sapiens | RNA Expression   RNA Expression

    19 paired human left ventricular apex samples were harvested at the time of implant of a left ventricular assist device (PRE) and at the time of explant (POST). The cohort included patients that were clinically classified as "ischemic" (I) showing evidence of coronary artery disease, "non-ischemic" …
