Functions for the cardiomyokine, MANF, in cardioprotection, hypertrophy and heart failure.
We define cardiomyokines as heart-derived secreted proteins that affect cardiovascular function via autocrine, paracrine and/or endocrine mechanisms. The subject of this review is the cardiomyokine, mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor (MANF). The expression of MANF is increased in the ischemic heart, in part, through activation of ER stress, a condition that drastically impairs ...
متن کاملthe search for the self in becketts theatre: waiting for godot and endgame
this thesis is based upon the works of samuel beckett. one of the greatest writers of contemporary literature. here, i have tried to focus on one of the main themes in becketts works: the search for the real "me" or the real self, which is not only a problem to be solved for beckett man but also for each of us. i have tried to show becketts techniques in approaching this unattainable goal, base...
15 صفحه اولDistinct functions of junD in cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure.
Cardiac hypertrophic stimuli induce both adaptive and maladaptive growth response pathways in heart. Here we show that mice lacking junD develop less adaptive hypertrophy in heart after mechanical pressure overload, while cardiomyocyte-specific expression of junD in mice results in spontaneous ventricular dilation and decreased contractility. In contrast, fra-1 conditional knock-out mice have a...
متن کاملHypertension, hypertrophy, heart failure.
Heart failure presents a number of difficulties. Its very definition has proved taxing, and the clinical diagnosis is frequently incorrect. Patients with objective abnormalities of left ventricular function are not infrequently asymptomatic, hence treatment is often delayed. Even when a firm diagnosis is secured, only a minority of patients receive optimal medical treatment. Of concern is the i...
متن کاملCardiac Hypertrophy and Heart Failure
In cardiac and skeletal muscle, the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) plays a central role in the contraction relaxation cycle of the muscle by virtue of its ability to regulate the intracellular free Ca'+ concentration [Ca'+],. Ca'+ release from the SR increases [Ca'+] (10`mol/L), thus inducing contraction, whereas Ca2` uptake by the SR reduces [Ca'+] (=10-7 mol/L), producing muscle relaxation. In c...
