Neuregulin 1 Sustains the Gene Regulatory Network in Both Trabecular and Nontrabecular Myocardium
23 Jul 2010
Abstract excerpt
RATIONALE: The cardiac gene regulatory network (GRN) is controlled by transcription factors and signaling inputs, but network logic in development and it unraveling in disease is poorly understood. In development, the membrane-tethered signaling ligand Neuregulin (Nrg)1, expressed in endocardium, is essential for ventricular morphogenesis. In adults, Nrg1 protects against heart failure and can induce...
