Abstract excerpt
A culture model for cardiac hypertrophy, stimulation of neonatal rat cardiac myocytes by alpha(1)-adrenergic agonists, has been used extensively to identify transcription factors that activate genes during cardiac hypertrophy, such as skeletal alpha-actin, beta-myosin heavy chain (betaMHC), and B-natriuretic peptide. We used this culture model to further investigate transcription factors regulating the betaMHC...
