http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/20382855http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"Cardiac hypertrophy is a common response to hemodynamic stress in the heart and can progress to heart failure. To investigate whether the transcription factor cardiovascular basic helix-loop-helix factor 1/hairy/enhancer of split related with YRPW motif 2 (CHF1/Hey2) influences the development of cardiac hypertrophy and progression to heart failure under conditions of pressure overload, we performed aortic constriction on 12-wk-old male wild-type (WT) and heterozygous (HET) mice globally underexpressing CHF1/Hey2. After aortic banding, WT and HET mice showed increased cardiac hypertrophy as measured by gravimetric analysis, as expected. CHF1/Hey2 HET mice, however, demonstrated a greater increase in the ventricular weight-to-body weight ratio compared with WT mice (P < 0.05). Echocardiographic measurements showed a significantly decreased ejection fraction compared with WT mice (P < 0.05). Histological examination of Masson trichrome-stained heart tissue demonstrated extensive fibrosis in HET mice compared with WT mice. TUNEL staining demonstrated increased apoptosis in HET hearts (P < 0.05). Exposure of cultured neonatal myocytes from WT and HET mice to H(2)O(2) and tunicamycin, known inducers of apoptosis that work through different mechanisms, demonstrated significantly increased apoptosis in HET cells compared with WT cells (P < 0.05). Expression of Bid, a downstream activator of the mitochondrial death pathway, was expressed in HET hearts at increased levels after aortic banding. Expression of GATA4, a transcriptional activator of cardiac hypertrophy, was also increased in HET hearts, as was phosphorylation of GATA4 at Ser(105). Our findings demonstrate that CHF1/Hey2 expression levels influence hypertrophy and the progression to heart failure in response to pressure overload through modulation of apoptosis and GATA4 activity."xsd:string
