Extracellular Matrix of Mechanically Stretched Cardiac Fibroblasts Improves Viability and Metabolic Activity of Ventricular Cells

Background: In heart, the extracellular matrix (ECM), produced by cardiac fibroblasts, is a potent regulator of heart(,)s function and growth, and provides a supportive scaffold for heart cells in vitro and in vivo. Cardiac fibroblasts are subjected to mechanical loading all the time in vivo. Theref...
