Heart failure remains a major source of late morbidity and mortality after myocardial
infarction (MI). The temporospatial presence of activated fibroblasts in the injured …

Our previous study has demonstrated the feasibility of noninvasive imaging of fibroblast
activation protein (FAP)-expression after myocardial infarction (MI) in MI-territory in a rat …

Aims The aim of this retrospective analysis was to examine the pattern of cardiac 68 Ga-
fibroblast-activation protein-α inhibitor (FAPI) uptake in patients after acute myocardial …

After acute myocardial infarction (AMI), fibroblast activation protein (FAP) upregulation
exceeds the infarct region. We sought further insights into the physiologic relevance by …

Background: FAP (fibroblast activation protein) plays an important role in cardiac wound
healing and remodeling. Although initially developed as a theranostic ligand for …

Purpose Heart failure (HF) is a chronic progressive clinical syndrome associated with
structural and/or functional heart abnormalities. Active fibroblasts and ventricular …

Purpose The aim of this study was to explore the correlation of 18 F-labeled fibroblast
activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) and cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) …

Background: Myocardial infarction (MI) evokes an organized remodeling process
characterized by the activation and transdifferentiation of quiescent cardiac fibroblasts to …

Background Fibroblast activation protein (FAP) as a specific marker of activated fibroblasts
can be visualized by positron emission tomography (PET) using Ga-68-FAP inhibitors …

Introduction Fibroblast activation protein α (FAP) is a membrane-bound serine protease
expressed by activated fibroblasts during wound healing in the skin. Expression of FAP after …
