Characterization of the immune cell repertoire in myocardial infarction and heart failure

Myocardial infarction (MI) is the major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The\nmost common cause of myocardial infarction is the partial or complete occlusion of\ncoronary arteries by the erosion or rupture of a vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque.

The\nmost common cause of myocardial infarction is the partial or complete occlusion of\ncoronary arteries by the erosion or rupture of a vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque.

description Myocardial infarction (MI) is the major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The\nmost common cause of myocardial infarction is the partial or complete occlusion of\ncoronary arteries by the erosion or rupture of a vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque.
