PKCα-specific phosphorylation of the troponin complex in human myocardium: a functional and proteomics analysis.

AIMS:Protein kinase Cα (PKCα) is one of the predominant PKC isoforms that phosphorylate cardiac troponin. PKCα is implicated in heart failure and serves as a potential therapeutic target, however, the exact consequences for contractile function in human myocardium are unclear. This study aimed to in...
