Heart-directed Expression of a Human Cardiac Isoform of cAMP-Response Element Modulator in Transgenic Mice
30 Nov 2004
Abstract excerpt
The transcriptional activation mediated by cAMP-response element (CRE) and transcription factors of the CRE-binding protein (CREB)/CRE modulator (CREM) family represents an important mechanism of cAMP-dependent gene regulation possibly implicated in detrimental effects of chronic beta-adrenergic stimulation in end-stage heart failure. We studied the cardiac role of CREM in transgenic mice with heart-directed...
