RhoA Regulation of Cardiomyocyte Differentiation
Earlier findings from our laboratory implicated RhoA in heart developmental processes. To investigate factors that potentially regulate RhoA expression, RhoA gene organisation and promoter activity were analysed. Comparative analysis indicated strict conservation of both gene organisation and coding sequence of the chick, mouse, and human RhoA genes. Bioinformatics analysis of the derived promo...
متن کاملMolecular regulation of cardiomyocyte differentiation.
The heart is the first organ to form during embryonic development. Given the complex nature of cardiac differentiation and morphogenesis, it is not surprising that some form of congenital heart disease is present in ≈1 percent of newborns. The molecular determinants of heart development have received much attention over the past several decades. This has been driven in large part by an interest...
متن کاملCardiomyocyte cell cycle regulation.
Although rapid progress is being made in many areas of molecular cardiology, issues pertaining to the origins of heart-forming cells, the mechanisms responsible for cardiogenic induction, and the pathways that regulate cardiomyocyte proliferation during embryonic and adult life remain unanswered. In the present study, we review approaches and studies that have shed some light on cardiomyocyte c...
متن کاملInhibition of cardiomyocyte differentiation by cADPR
Background: The role and mechanism of cADPR, an endogenous Ca 2+ mobilizing nucleotide, in cardiomyogenesis remain to be determined. Results: We found that inhibition of the cADPR cascade facilitated cardiomyocyte differentiation of mouse ES cells. Conclusion: The CD38-cADPR-Ca 2+ signaling pathway antagonizes the cardiomyocyte differentiation of mouse ES cells. Significance: Inhibition of cADP...
متن کاملsfrp1 promotes cardiomyocyte differentiation in Xenopus via negative-feedback regulation of Wnt signalling.
Wnt signalling is a key regulator of vertebrate heart development, yet it is unclear which specific Wnt signalling components are required to regulate which aspect of cardiogenesis. Previously, we identified Wnt6 as an endogenous Wnt ligand required for controlling heart muscle differentiation via canonical Wnt/β-catenin signalling. Here we show for the first time a requirement for an endogenou...
