Fibrin-Enriched Cardiac Extracellular Matrix Hydrogel Promotes In Vitro Angiogenesis.

ABSTRACT: Angiogenesis is essential for cardiac repair after myocardial infarction. Promoting angiogenesis has been demonstrated as an effective approach for myocardial infarction treatment. Several different strategies for inducing myocardial angiogenesis have been explored, including exogenous delivery of angiogenic genes, proteins, microRNAs, cells, and extracellular vesicles. Various types of injectable hydrogels have been investigated for cardiac tissue repair. One of the most promising injectable hydrogels in cardiac regeneration is a cardiac extracellular matrix hydrogel that is derived from decellularized porcine myocardium. It can be delivered minimally invasively via transendocardial delivery. The safety and efficacy of cardiac extracellular matrix hydrogels have been shown in small
