FDG-PET reveals improved cardiac regeneration and attenuated adverse remodelling following Sitagliptin + G-CSF therapy after acute myocardial infarction

Conclusion
Using the innovative method of micro-PET for non-invasive serial in vivo measurements of metabolic myocardial processes in mice, we were able to provide mechanistic evidence that GS therapy improves cardiac regeneration and reduces adverse remodelling after AMI.
