Abstract excerpt
Cardiac fibrosis in perinatally nicotine-exposed hearts has been demonstrated, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Moreover, whether this phenotype is transmitted transgenerationally, as has been shown for perinatal nicotine exposure-induced asthma, is not known. MicroRNA (miR)-1, which targets a key extracellular matrix (ECM) protein, connective tissue growth factor (CTGF), and myocardial...
