The Luc group showed an average EF of 27 ± 3% and FS of 11 ± 1% 28 days after MI, while Foxm1 overexpression significantly prevented the infarction progress and maintained the cardiac function with an average EF of 36 ± 2% and FS of 16 ± 1% (Fig. 6b, c). This evidence concerns the gene FOXM1 and infarction.
