Revealing new mouse epicardial cell markers through transcriptomics. by Lars Bochmann, Padmini Sarathchandra, Federica Mori, Enrique Lara-Pezzi, Domenico Lazzaro, Nadia Rosenthal

“…<h4>Methodology</h4>Using laser capture microscopy, we isolated the epicardial layer from the adult murine heart before or after cardiac infarction in wildtype mice and mice expressing a transgenic IGF-1 propeptide (mIGF-1) that enhances cardiac repair, and analyzed the transcription profile using DNA microarrays.<h4>Principal findings</h4>Expression of epithelial genes such as basonuclin, dermokine, and glycoprotein M6A are highly enriched in the epicardial layer, which maintains expression of selected embryonic genes involved in epicardial development in mIGF-1 transgenic hearts. …”
