An Infusible Decellularized Extracellular Matrix Material Binds to Vasculature in Infarcted Myocardium and Induces Pro‐Reparative Gene Expression Following Acute Myocardial Infarction Through Inherent Avidity and Bioactive Signaling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
To better characterize an infusible extracellular matrix (iECM) material, we applied size‐based fractionation to separate out components into two major fractions. We characterized these fractions to understand how material properties such as composition, morphology, and biochemical properties affect bioactive effects in the context of acute myocardial ...
