Mitochondria‐derived damage‐associated molecular patterns and inflammation in the ischemic‐reperfused heart

Cardiac cell death after myocardial infarction release endogenous structures termed damage‐associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) that trigger the innate immune system and initiate a sterile inflammation in the myocardium. Cardiomyocytes are energy demanding cells and 30% of their volume are mitochon...
