Abstract excerpt
This paper examines the quantitative relationship between the expression of myosin heavy chain (MHC) and actin at both the levels of their mRNAs and their proteins. Explanted human left ventricle tissues were obtained from non-diseased (ND) individuals and from dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) patients with terminally failing hearts who underwent heart transplantation. We found: (1) there are substantial differences...
