Myocardial infarction (MI) is a severe global clinical condition with widespread prevalence. The adult mammalian heart's limited capacity to generate new cardiomyocytes (CMs) in response to injury remains a primary obstacle in developing effective therapies. Current approaches focus on inducing the proliferation of existing CMs through cell-cycle reentry.

The ribosome is a multi-unit complex that translates mRNA into protein. Ribosome biogenesis is the process that generates ribosomes and plays an essential role in cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, development, and transformation. The mTORC1, Myc, and noncoding RNA signaling pathways are the primary mediators that work jointly with RNA polymerases and ribosome proteins to control ribosome biogenesis and protein synthesis.

Medications and surgical intervention offer limited benefit, and stem cell therapy has emerged as a potential approach for treating ischemic diseases. The exosomes secreted by stem cells have attracted more attention because they do not trigger the immune response and can be used as drug carriers.

AmDIV (DIVARICATA) is a functional MYB transcription factor (TF) that regulates ventral identity during floral development in Antirrhinum. There are six members of DIV homologs in Arabidopsis; however, the functions of these proteins are largely unknown.
