Cyclic mechanical strain causes cAMP-response element binding protein activation by different pathways in cardiac fibroblasts
The transcription factor cAMP-response element binding protein (CREB) mediates the mechanical strain-induced gene expression in the heart. This study investigated which signaling pathways are involved in the strain-induced CREB activation using cultured ventricular fibroblasts from adult rat hearts....
