Cardiac fibrosis is a pathological change leading to cardiac remodeling during the progression of myocardial ischemic diseases, and its therapeutic strategy remains to be explored. S100A4, a calcium-binding protein, participates in fibrotic diseases with an unclear mechanism. This study aimed to investigate the role of S100A4 in cardiac fibrosis.
