Enigma in cardiac hypertrophy.
The Enigma subfamily belongs to the PDZ(for PSD-95, DLG, ZO-1) and LIM(for LIN-11, Isl-1, MEC-3) encoding protein family. This family is composed of at least four different members: Enigma (also called PD-LIM7; LMP-1), Enigma homologue (ENH), ZASP/Cypher/ Oracle, and LMP-4. All members of the PDZ–LIM Enigma family, including ENH, are cytoplasmic proteins that bind to the cytoskeleton through a ...
متن کاملCarvacrol Ameliorates Pathological Cardiac Hypertrophy in Both In-vivo and In-vitro Models
Hypertension-induced left ventricular hypertrophy is the most important risk factor for heart failure. This study aimed at investigating the effects of monoterpenoid phenol, carvacrol, on myocardial hypertrophy using both in-vivo and in-vitro models. Male Wistar rats were divided into the control (Ctl), un-treated hypertrophy (H), and carvacrol-treated hypertrophy gro...
متن کاملCAMTA in Cardiac Hypertrophy
In this issue of Cell, the Calmodulin binding transcription activator 2 (CAMTA2), is shown by Song et al. (2006) to be an indispensable transcription coactivator for cardiac hypertrophy. CAMTA2 is activated by the dissociation of class II histone deacetylase 5 and promotes transcription of genes involved in cardiac hypertrophy through its interaction with Nkx2-5.
متن کاملCardiac hypertrophy in athletes.
The outstanding physical ability of top athletes and the frequency with which world records are broken continue to fascinate layman and physiologist alike. It is generally assumed that such great achievements are the outcome of ever more rigorous and prolonged training programmes, which cause, among other things, adaptation of the heart in various ways. The most prominent of these is left ventr...
متن کاملThe Possible Role of TNF-alpha in Physiological and Pathophysiological Cardiac Hypertrophy in Rats
Pathological cardiac hypertrophy was produced by partial abdominal aortic constriction (PAAC) for 4 wk, while physiological cardiac hypertrophy was produced by chronic swimming training (CST) for 8 wk in rats. Pentoxifylline (30 mg/kg, 300 mg/kg i.p., day-1) treatment was started three days before PAAC and CST and it was continued for 4 wk in PAAC and 8 wk in CST experimental model. The left ve...
