Dynamic Heterogeneity of the Heart Valve Interstitial Cell Population in Mitral Valve Health and Disease
The heart valve interstitial cell (VIC) population is dynamic and thought to mediate lay down and maintenance of the tri-laminar extracellular matrix (ECM) structure within the developing and mature valve throughout life. Disturbances in the contribution and distribution of valve ECM components are...
