Discoordinate regulation of contractile protein gene expression in the senescent rat myocardium.

Abstract excerpt

The myocardium is a highly adaptive tissue, as evidenced by phenotypic alterations throughout development and under conditions of altered hemodynamic load. With pressure overload, the myocardium displays adult-to-fetal transitions in expression of contractile and non-contractile proteins. Most intriguing is the fact that many of these transitions are also observed in the senescent heart. The purpose of this work...
