BACKGROUND A long-standing hypothesis has been that hypertrophy is compensatory and by normalizing wall stress acts to maintain normal cardiac function. Epidemiological data, however, have shown that cardiac hypertrophy is associated with increased mortality, thus casting doubt on the validity of this hypothesis. METHODS AND RESULTS To determine whether cardiac hypertrophy is necessary to pre...
Cellular repressor of E1A-stimulated genes (CREG) is a secreted glycoprotein of 220 amino acids. It has been proposed that CREG acts as a ligand that enhances differentiation and/or reduces cell proliferation. CREG has been shown previously to attenuate cardiac hypertrophy in vitro. However, such a role has not been determined in vivo. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that overexp...
Despite therapeutic advances, heart failure-related mortality rates remain high. Therefore, understanding the pathophysiological mechanisms involved in the remodeling process is crucial for the development of new therapeutic strategies. Andrographolide (Andr), a botanical compound, has potent cardio-protective effects due to its ability to inhibit mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs). Andr...
Evodiamine, a traditional Chinese herb Evodia rutaecarpa, has been shown its anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties. However, the role of evodiamine in cardiac hypertrophy and its possible molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effect of evodiamine on cardiac hypertrophy and explore the possible mechanisms. Aortic banding (AB) on mice was pe...
BACKGROUND Sustained cardiac pressure overload-induced hypertrophy and pathological remodeling frequently leads to heart failure. Casein kinase-2 interacting protein-1 (CKIP-1) has been identified to be an important regulator of cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. However, the physiological role of CKIP-1 in the heart is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS The results of echocardiogr...
Background: Clinical evidence points to the effective role of genetic factors and intracellular signaling pathways in physiological cardiac hypertrophy. This study aimed to assess the response of PI3K/mTORc1 signaling pathway in cardiac tissue to resistance training in obese diabetic rats. Materials and Methods: For this purpose, 21 male wistar rats (220±20 g) were obese by 6 weeks high fat di...
Growing evidence shows that protein kinase D (PKD) plays an important role in the development of pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy. However, the mechanisms involved are not clear. This study tested our hypothesis that PKD might mediate cardiac hypertrophy by negatively regulating autophagy using the technique of PKD knockdown by siRNA. Cardiac hypertrophy was induced in 8-week old m...
BACKGROUND Postnatal growth of the heart chiefly involves nonproliferative cardiomyocyte enlargement. Cardiac hypertrophy exists in a "physiological" form that is an adaptive response to long-term exercise training and as a "pathological" form that often is a maladaptive response to provocative stimuli such as hypertension and aortic valvular stenosis. A signaling cascade that includes the prot...
BACKGROUND Inflammation is induced in the heart during the development of cardiac hypertrophy. The initiating mechanisms and the role of inflammation in cardiac hypertrophy, however, remain unclear. Toll-like receptor-2 (TLR2) recognizes endogenous molecules that induce noninfectious inflammation. Here, we examined the role of TLR2-mediated inflammation in cardiac hypertrophy. METHODS AND RES...
Background: We previously reported that lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) promoted cardiomyocyte hypertrophy in vitro via one of its G protein-coupled receptor subtypes, LPA3. In this study, we examined the role of LPA3 in cardiac hypertrophy induced by isoproterenol (ISO) and myocardial infarction. Methods:In vitro, neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCMs) were subjected to LPA3 knocked-down, or pretreat...
