Functional Characterization of Fibronectin-Separated Valve Interstitial Cell Subpopulations in Three-Dimensional Culture

BACKGROUND: Myxomatous mitral valves (MVs) contain elevated proportions of myofibroblasts, a valve interstitial cell (VIC) subpopulation likely important in disease pathogenesis. We recently developed a novel technique for the isolation of VIC myofibroblasts using time dependent adhesion to fibronec...
