Core Viewpoint - The study highlights the role of LYZ2 in mediating remote injury responses in the heart, suggesting that targeting LYZ2 in endocardial cells can promote rapid recovery of non-regenerative hearts after myocardial infarction [3][4][6]. Group 1: Research Findings - Local cardiac injury leads to significantly elevated expression of Lyz2 in both the damaged area and remote regions [7]. - Lyz2 acts as a positive regulator of lysosomal degradation triggered by remote injury [7]. - Gene knockout of Lyz2 can result in rapid functional recovery after myocardial infarction [7]. - Pharmacological inhibition of lysosomal degradation has cardioprotective effects [7]. Group 2: Implications for Treatment - The findings suggest that targeting remote injury responses in non-myocyte cell types could facilitate swift recovery of non-regenerative hearts post-myocardial infarction [6][7].
