Reports on cardiology findings from Seoul National University provide new insights
December 28th, 2008
New investigation results, 'Protection of cardiomyocytes from ischemic/hypoxic cell death via Drbp1 and pMe2GlyDH in cardio-specific ARC transgenic mice,' are detailed in a study published in Journal of Biological Chemistry. According to a study from Seoul, Korea, "The ischemic death of cardiomyocytes is associated in heart disease and heart failure. However, the molecular mechanism underlying ischemic cell death is not well defined." "To examine the function of apoptosis repressor with a caspase recruitment domain (ARC) in the ischemic/hypoxic damage of cardiomyocytes, we generated cardio-specific ARC transgenic mice using a mouse alpha-myosin heavy chain...
