Developing new heart regeneration therapies requires standardized methods. This study presents a validated framework for precisely assessing heart regeneration after myocardial infarction (MI) in mice, improving research reliability.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Research
  • Regenerative Medicine
  • Experimental Cardiology

Background:

  • Myocardial infarction (MI) causes irreversible cardiomyocyte loss, a leading cause of mortality.
  • Assessing endogenous heart regeneration is crucial for developing new therapies.
  • Current methods for evaluating cardiac regeneration lack standardization and comprehensive quantitative assessment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate an integrated experimental framework for precise quantitative assessment of heart regeneration after ischemic injury in adult mice.
  • To establish standardized methodologies for evaluating key parameters of cardiac repair and regeneration.
  • To provide a reliable reference for future heart regeneration research.

Main Methods:

  • Serial echocardiography for assessing left ventricular function and structure.

  • Standardized Masson's trichrome staining for scar burden quantification.
  • Multi-marker strategy (EdU, pH 3, Aurora B) for cardiomyocyte cell-cycle analysis.
  • Enzymatic digestion for total cardiomyocyte enumeration and cell replenishment assessment.

    • Main Results:

    • A systematically validated framework integrating echocardiography, histology, cell-cycle markers, and cell enumeration was established.
    • The framework provides standardized, reproducible methods for assessing scar burden, cardiomyocyte proliferation, and cell replenishment.
    • This integrated approach enhances the accuracy and reliability of quantitative metrics in heart regeneration studies.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed framework offers standardized, validated methodologies crucial for advancing heart regeneration research.
    • This standardized assessment framework will improve the reliability and comparability of studies investigating cardiac repair after myocardial infarction.
    • This work provides a robust reference for the quantitative evaluation of heart regeneration in preclinical models.
