Abstract:Acute myocardial infarction is still a cardiovascular disease with high mortality. Promoting angiogenesis after infarction can promote revascularization and improve myocardial function, which is of great significance for the repair of myocardial injury. Angiogenesis after myocardial infarction starts from the infarct boundary area and extends to the necrotic infarction core, the process of angiogenesis is complex, and its mechanisms have not been fully elucidated; there are several signal transduction pathways that can regulate the process of angiogenesis, including phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/Akt), Notch signaling pathway (Notch), janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) and sonic hedgehog signaling pathway (Shh), etc. Elucidating the related mechanisms of angiogenesis after myocardial infarction through various signal transduction pathways can provide research evidence and direction for the treatment of angiogenesis after myocardial infarction. This article reviews the characteristics of angiogenesis after myocardial infarction and the related mechanisms of signal transduction pathways in angiogenesis.
