• Functionally opposing roles of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase in the regulation of cardiac contractility.

  BACKGROUND: Extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38-MAPK) have been shown to regulate various…

• Nuclear factor-kappaB signaling contributes to severe, but not moderate, angiotensin II-induced left ventricular remodeling.

  OBJECTIVE: The transcription factor nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) has been implicated in cardiomyocyte hypertrophy in vitro as well as in vivo; ho…

• Evidence for a functional role of angiotensin II type 2 receptor in the cardiac hypertrophic process in vivo in the rat heart.

  BACKGROUND: The precise function of angiotensin II type 2 receptor (AT2-R) in the mammalian heart in vivo is unknown. Here, we investigated the role o…
