NADPH Oxidase-4 Driven Cardiac Macrophage Polarization Protects Against Myocardial Infarction–Induced Remodeling

The reactive oxygen species–generating enzyme NADPH oxidase 4 (Nox4) is up-regulated in the heart after myocardial infarction (MI). Mice with cardiomyocyte-targeted Nox4 overexpression (TG) displayed increased macrophages in the heart at baseline, with skewing toward an M2 phenotype compared with wi...
