Comparative Study[The effect of basic fibroblast growth factor on angiogenesis and on the expression of basic fibroblast growth factor and vascular endothelial growth factor in acute infarcted myocardium].
To evaluate the effect of intramyocardial administration of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) on the angiogenesis and on the expression of bFGF and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in infarcted myocardium. ⋯ Intramyocardial administration of bFGF is useful in increasing the growth of microvessels and improving the left ventricular function in acute myocardial infarction.
