Abstract
An improved survival associated with transient reorganization of the cytoskeletal proteins and reduction in myocardial fibrosis was achieved by hepatocyte growth factor treatment in an adult hamster model of dilated cardiomyopathy. The results suggest a therapeutic potential of hepatocyte growth factor in the treatment of dilated cardiomyopathy.
