Downregulation of miR-206 in MSCs effectively preserved cardiac function. (a) Representative images of rat heart function detected by echocardiogram in PBS, NC, H2O2, and miR-206 inhibitor groups at 28 days after MI (). The left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) (b) and fraction shorting (FS) (c) in the four groups were statistically analyzed (). (d) Representative images of Masson trichrome (MT) staining in PBS, NC, H2O2, and miR-206 inhibitor groups at 28 days after MI.
