Signal transduction mechanisms and nuclear effectors in gene expression during hypertrophy of cardiac myocytes
Abstract During cardiac hypertrophy individual cardiac myocytes increase in size, which is accompanied by augmented protein synthesis and selective induction of a subset of genes. These phenotypic changes of myocytes are a result from altered intracellular signaling mechanisms and molecules. B-type...
