Abstract 590: EphrinA1-Fc Attenuates Dysfunction and Fibrosis in Nonreperfused Myocardium at 4 weeks Post-MI in WT B6 but Not EphA2-R Mutant Mice
TL;DR: The potential of a single administration of ephrinA1-Fc to not only attenuate acute ischemic injury but also mitigate pathological accumulation of interstitial fibrosis and remodeling, thereby reducing ventricular stiffening and the resultant progression to heart failure is demonstrated.

TL;DR: Reduced injury is due to a combination of adaptive metabolic reprogramming, improved cell survival, and decreased inflammatory cell recruitment, suggesting that ephrinA1-Fc enhances the capacity of the heart to withstand an ischemic insult.
