Furthermore, the expression of cardiac progenitor markers (PDGFR-α, VEGFR-2, and SSEA-1), cardiac transcription factors (GATA-4, NKx 2-5, ISL-1, TBX-5, TBX-18, and MeF-2C), and cardiovascular markers (cTNT, CD31, and α-SMA) were significantly reduced in ICHD AF-MSCs. The gene discussed is TBX5; the disease is atrial fibrillation.
