Academic Background Myocardial Infarction (MI) is one of the major global health concerns. Although myeloid cells in the bone marrow (BM) are crucial for tissue repair after MI, excessive myelopoiesis can exacerbate scarring and impair cardiac function. Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in the bone marrow possess unique regenerative capabilities, ena...
