Figure 2

Characterization of the infarct matrix composition after myocardial infarction. (A) Total collagen content within the 4-week infarct is significantly greater than both the healthy and 1-week conditions (n = 3 for each condition and P < 0.05). (B) LC-MS/MS spectrum count analysis describes the relative percentages of each matrix protein identified within the decellularized healthy left ventricle or scar. Note that Pstn is periostin, Ln is laminin, Eln is elastin, Fn is fibronectin, and Col is collagen. (n = 2 for each condition).
