A Glycoengineered Interferon-β Mutein (R27T) Generates Prolonged Signaling by an Altered Receptor-Binding Kinetics.

abstract：:The present study reveals a link between protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) and Homebox A9 (HoxA9) in the regulation of cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. In cardiomyocyte hypertrophy induced by β-adrenergic receptor agonist isoprenaline (ISO), PRMT5 expression was decreased while HoxA9 was upregulated. Silencing of...
