Direct and Indirect Involvement of MicroRNA-499 in Clinical and Experimental Cardiomyopathy
1 Jul 2012
Abstract excerpt
RATIONALE: MicroRNA-499 and other members of the myomiR family regulate myosin isoforms in pressure-overload hypertrophy. miR-499 expression varies in human disease, but results of mouse cardiac miR-499 overexpression are inconsistent, either protecting against ischemic damage or aggravating cardiomyopathy after pressure overload. Likewise, there is disagreement over direct and indirect cardiac mRNAs targeted in...
