The microRNA-15 family inhibits the TGFβ-pathway in the heart
7 Aug 2014
Abstract excerpt
AIMS: The overloaded heart remodels by cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and interstitial fibrosis, which contributes to the development of heart failure. Signalling via the TGFβ-pathway is crucial for this remodelling. Here we tested the hypothesis that microRNAs in the overloaded heart regulate this remodelling process via inhibition of the TGFβ-pathway. METHODS AND RESULTS: We show that the miRNA-15 family, which we...
