Description:
Article Adult cardiac progenitor/stem cells (CPSCs) possess valuable potential for heart repair that is limited by the elusiveness of these cells. Here Noseda et al. refine the definition of murine CPSCs producing stem cell antigen 1 (Sca1), mapping the cardiogenic signature and clonogenicity to the subgroup of Sca1 + cells expressing PDGFRα.
