Cardiac regeneration shows potential for the treatment and prevention of heart failure1, 2. Animal models are indispensable and play a critical role in understanding how cardiac regeneration occurs3-6. Many amphibians and fish regenerate heart tissue in response to injury, providing insight into our understanding of human cardiovascular disease13, 14. In terms of evolution, however, the pathophysiology should be more conserved between a mouse model and humans. Heart regeneration in mammal...

Prolonged human life span leads to various aging- and lifestyle-related diseases, including heart failure, a leading cause of mortality. However, without replacement of lost or dysfunctional cardiac muscle cells, current therapeutics can only transiently improve cardiac function1, 2. Thus, it is necessary to discover and develop innovative strategies for cardiac regeneration and repair. The adult mammalian heart has limited regenerative potential. Studies from lower vertebrates, such as urodele amphibians and teleost fish, have provided unprecedented insights into the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying heart regeneration3, 4. Recently, a neonatal mouse model of heart regeneration has emerged that might enable identification and characterization of more evolutionarily conserved pathophysiological events required for human heart regeneration5. 
Apical resection refers to the surgical removal of left ventricular apex. This procedure is restricted to 1- to 7-day-old (P1 to P7) mice due to its high lethality in older mice6. The cardiac regeneration process in neonatal mice after apical resection is expected to be as follows: (I) rapid and effective formation of a hematoma to seal the apex and prevent exsanguination; (II) cardiomyocyte regeneration and restoration of systolic function5, 7. Recent work has stimulated debate on the significance and efficiency of this model8-11. Thus, it is important to present the apical resection clearly and in detail. To this end, this protocol vividly and specifically describes a video of how I did apical resection based on a previous protocol6. 
Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying cardiac regeneration is of importance for treatment of heart disease characterized by loss and/or injured cardiomyocytes, such as heart failure1, 2. Given the current and promising progress of apical resection in the research of cardiac regeneration, this study could promote the use of this technique and its uses in cardiac regeneration research.

apical resection mouse model to study early mammalian heart regeneration

La enfermedad cardiovascular afecta a todo el mundo debido a los cambios de estilo de vida intensivos. La regeneración del corazón representa una gran promesa para la reparación y la restauración de los cardiomiocitos perdidos debido a lesiones y enfermedades. En contraste con la regeneración cardiaca robusta de ciertos vertebrados inferiores, corazones de mamíferos adultos típicamente muestran una capacidad mínima para la regeneración del corazón y reparación. Sin embargo, estudios recientes han suscitado considerable interés científico con el hallazgo de que, entre el día postnatal 1 al 7 (P1 a P7), el corazón neonatal de ratón retiene potencial regenerativo significativa después de la resección apical (es decir, la amputación quirúrgica y la exposición del ápice del ventrículo izquierdo). Una gran controversia sobre este hallazgo podría ser debido a los diversos procedimientos relacionados con la cirugía utilizados en los esfuerzos para replicar o ampliar sobre este importante hallazgo. Estas instrucciones presentan dinámicamente los materiales y la metodología para la resección apical en un modelo de ratón. Las medidas más destacadas de este Surviva roedoresl cirugía involucra anestesia hipotermia, toracotomía, la amputación quirúrgica del ápex del ventrículo del corazón, y la sutura y la recuperación de los ratones. El método descrito también podría ampliar la aplicación del modelo de ratón de la resección apical para la investigación cardiovascular.

Crías de ratón fueron sacrificados 1, 2, y 21 días después de la resección apical, y sus corazones se recogieron para H &amp; E y tricrómico de Masson. De color azul en tricrómico de Masson indica la deposición de matriz extracelular epicárdica 5. Con la resección apical éxito, un coágulo de sangre se forma de manera efectiva para sellar el LV One día post-resección apical, como se muestra en la Figura 1A. Se observa una resorción gradual del coágulo de sangre y principios de ...
