| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Myocardial cellular function is different between endocardial and epicardial cells. It is not clear how ischemic condition affects this transmural heterogeneity. In the present study, we isolate the cells from epicardium and endocardium to compare the response of their mechanical properties to stretch. We found that ischemic condition reduces the transmural heterogeneity in the response to stretch. The present findings may provide new insight into pathophysiology of ischemic heart disease.
