Shakked et al. highlight the importance of cardiomyocytes’ redifferentiation after dedifferentiation and proliferation in cardiac repair and show that redifferentiation depends on negative feedback signaling and LATS1/2 Hippo pathway activity. Cardiomyocyte redifferentiation not only promotes the restoration of cardiac function but also protects against future insult.
