Abstract excerpt
During ischemia and heart failure, there is an increase in cardiac glycolysis. To understand if this is beneficial or detrimental to the heart, we chronically elevated glycolysis by cardiac-specific overexpression of phosphatase-deficient 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase (PFK-...
