Regulated transcription factors in proliferating cardiomyocytes clarified

Published in Drug Week, July 28th, 2006

According to recent research from Germany, TEF-1 and C/EBP beta are major p38 alpha MAR-regulated transcription factors in proliferating cardiomyocytes.

"P38 MAPKs (mitogen-activated protein kinases) play important roles in the regulation of cellular responses to environmental stress. Recently, this signalling pathway has also been implicated in the regulation of processes unrelated to stress, for example, in T lymphocytes and cardiomyocytes.

"In order to identify molecular targets responsible for the housekeeping functions of p38 MAPKs, we have analysed the differences in the transcriptomes of normally proliferating wild-type and p38 alpha knockout...
