In vivo application of CRISPR/Cas9 mediated gene re-expression in the failing mouse and human myocardium
(2022-11-17)Transcriptional adaptation in cardiomyocytes precedes cellular deterioration and functional decline upon myocardial stress and damage resulting in heart failure progression. The re-activation of WNT/β-catenin (CTNNB1) ... -
Molecular mechanisms of TBX5-related conduction disorders
(2021-08-24)Background Cardiovascular disease is a common cause of death. About 60 % of cardiovascular mortality is attributable to sudden cardiac death, mostly caused by arrhythmia. The origin of arrhythmia can be an underlying ... -
EZH2-GATA6 axis in Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma
(2020-09-25)Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly heterogeneous disease which is significantly driven by epigenetic alterations, e.g. installed by overexpression of Enhancer of Zeste homologue 2 (EZH2). EZH2 constitutes ... -
Human induced pluripotent stem cell models used in the study of doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy
(2020-06-24)Doxorubicin (DOX) has been used for decades to treat hematopoietic and solid tumors, although, in a subset of cancer survivors, it causes cardiotoxicity decades after treatment. The mechanisms of anthracycline-induced ... -
TET3 IMPACTS CARDIAC FIBROSIS PARTIALLY VIA REGULATION OF DNA DAMAGE RESPONSE
(2020-02-12)Activation and proliferation of cardiac fibroblasts are the prime mediators of cardiac fibrosis. Existing studies show that ROS and inflammatory cytokines produced during fibrosis not only signal proliferative stimuli but ... -
Wnt-TCF7L2-dependent transcriptional and chromatin dynamics in cardiac regeneration, homeostasis and disease
(2018-11-12)Wnt/β-catenin-dependent signaling pathway is indispensible for cardiac development, becoming quiescent in the normal adult heart, and re-activated in both regenerative responses post-injury and in cardiac hypertrophy and ... -
The Role of the Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Protein 5 (IGFBP5) in Cardiogenesis and Cardiac Remodelling
(2018-10-15)The importance of elucidating mechanisms of cardiac regulatory networks during cardiogenesis is underscored by the re-activation of fetal gene expression in the diseased adult heart. To further understand this phenomenon, ...
