Abstract

This study evaluates the effectiveness of myocardial matrix (MM) hydrogels in mitigating negative right ventricular (RV) remodeling in a rat model of RV heart failure. The goal was to assess whether a hydrogel derived from either the right or left ventricle could promote cardiac repair. Injured rat right ventricles were injected with either RV-or left ventricular-derived MM hydrogels. Both hydrogels improved RV function and morphology and reduced negative remodeling. This study supports the potential of injectable biomaterial therapies for treating RV heart failure.
