Differential impact of mechanical unloading on structural and nonstructural components of the extracellular matrix in advanced human heart failure

Adverse remodeling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) is a significant characteristic of heart failure. Reverse remodeling of the fibrillar ECM secondary to mechanical unloading of the left ventricle (LV) by left ventricular assist device (LVAD) has been subject of intense investigation; however, lit...
