Key result
Patients with chronic heart failure exhibited a pronounced loss of angiomiR-126 and -130a in angiogenic EOCs and circulating CD34(+) cells, which limited their cardiac repair capacity.

Does miR-126 mimic transfection improve the cardiac neovascularization and functional repair capacity of angiogenic EOCs from patients with chronic heart failure?
Reduced miR-126 expression in angiogenic EOCs from CHF patients limits their cardiac repair capacity, which can be restored by miR-126 mimic transfection.
Jakob et al. (2012) conducted an observational in Chronic heart failure (n=80). Chronic heart failure vs. Healthy subjects was evaluated on Expression of angiomiR-126 and -130a in angiogenic EOCs and circulating CD34(+) cells. Patients with chronic heart failure exhibited a pronounced loss of angiomiR-126 and -130a in angiogenic EOCs and circulating CD34(+) cells, which limited their cardiac repair capacity.
