Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Pathological cardiac remodeling is a critical process in the progression of cardiovascular diseases. To investigate the role and underlying mechanisms of the TWEAK/FN14 axis in cardiac fibrosis, we conducted both in vivo and in vitro experiments. METHODS AND RESULTS: Transcriptomic analysis and Western blotting revealed that FN14 expression was upregulated in animal models of pathological cardiac...
