FGL2 and myocardial infarction: Furthermore, increased FGL2 expression has been identified in reperfusion injury following myocardial infarction, when severe stenosis contributing to ischaemia in the myocardium is treated with blood flow being restored following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) [43], and similarly in hepatic reperfusion injury during transplant, where blood flow is restored following organ implantation [28].
