Next, in vivo therapeutic efficacy of the BCP was evaluated in a rat model of myocardial infarction (MI), created by left descending coronary artery ligation (MI + BCP group), and compared with MI alone (MI group), transplantation of DP (MI + DP group), and hiPSC-CMs (MI + CM group). The gene discussed is OPN1SW; the disease is myocardial infarction.
