Proteomic Analysis Reveals Virus-Specific Hsp25 Modulation in Cardiac Myocytes

Abstract excerpt

Viruses frequently infect the heart but clinical myocarditis is rare, suggesting that the cardiac antiviral response is uniquely effective. Indeed, the Type I interferon (IFN) response is cardiac cell-type specific and provides one integrated network of protection for the heart. Here, a proteomic approach was used to identify additional proteins that may be involved in the cardiac antiviral response....
