Abstract excerpt
Preferential and specific down-regulation of genes involved in fatty acid (FA) uptake and metabolism is considered a hallmark of severe hypertrophic remodeling and progression to cardiac failure. Therefore, we investigated the time course of changes in cardiac metabolic gene expression (1) in mice subjected to regional myocardial infarction (MI) for 4 days, 1 month, or 3 months and (2) in mice overexpressing...
