Over-expression of calpastatin inhibits calpain activation and attenuates post-infarction myocardial remodeling.
Calpain is activated following myocardial infarction and ablation of calpastatin (CAST), an endogenous inhibitor of calpains, promotes left ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarction (MI). The present study aimed to investigate the effect of transgenic over-expression of CAST on the post-inf...
