Signaling pathways in myocyte hypertrophy:role of GATA4, mitogen-activated protein kinases and protein kinase C
Abstract Cardiac myocytes react to increased workload and hypertrophic neurohumoral stimuli by increasing protein synthesis, reinitiating expression of fetal forms of structural genes, α-skeletal actin (α-SkA) and β-myosin heavy chain (β-MHC), and by increasing expression and secretion of atrial na...
