The Biological Role of Nestin(+)-Cells in Physiological and Pathological Cardiovascular Remodeling
The intermediate filament protein nestin was identified in diverse populations of cells implicated in cardiovascular remodeling. Cardiac resident neural progenitor/stem cells constitutively express nestin and following an ischemic insult migrate to the infarct region and participate in angiogenesis...
