Inhibition of adrenergic neurotransmission in ischaemic regions of the canine left ventricle.

abstract：AIMS:GATA4 is a transcription factor that is up-regulated during cardiac hypertrophy and plays a fundamental role in myocyte growth and survival. In this study, we investigate the transcriptional vs. post-transcriptional mechanisms that are involved in regulating GATA4 in the heart during neonatal and pressure overload...
