Krüppel-like Factor 13 Is a Major Mediator of Glucocorticoid Receptor Signaling in Cardiomyocytes and Protects These Cells from DNA Damage and Death

Abstract excerpt

Glucocorticoid receptor (GR) signaling has recently been shown to play a direct role in the regulation of cardiomyocyte function. In this study, we investigated the potential role of KLF13 as a downstream effector of GR action utilizing both in vivo and in vitro approaches. Our data show that KLF13 mRNA and protein levels are significantly diminished in the hearts of mice lacking GR in cardiomyocytes....
