Standardized mouse cardiac surgery protocols may boost reproducibility and reduce animal loss; leaves open translation to human cardiovascular research.
Oleg Tarnavski (2009) conducted a review in Cardiovascular disease (mouse models). Mouse surgical models (aortic constriction, pulmonary artery banding, myocardial infarction) was evaluated. Comprehensive details of three major mouse surgical procedures (aortic constriction, pulmonary artery banding, and myocardial infarction) are provided to improve reproducibility and minimize animal loss.
