Abstract
Right ventricular (RV) pressure loading induces RV profibrotic signaling and fibrosis associated with RV dysfunction. RV decorin protein levels are decreased in patients with chronic RV pressure loading. RV decorin protein levels are also decreased in 4 animal models of mechanical RV pressure loading and pulmonary arterial hypertension. Human cardiac fibroblasts overexpressing decorin show diminished collagen-1 secretion in response to mechanical or chemical profibrotic stress while decorin knockout human cardiac fibroblasts show increased collagen-1 secretion in response to stress. Downregulation of decorin may play a key role in upregulating transforming growth factor-β1 profibrotic signaling and fibrosis that contribute to RV dysfunction in RV pressure loading.
期刊介绍:
JACC: Basic to Translational Science is an open access journal that is part of the renowned Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC). It focuses on advancing the field of Translational Cardiovascular Medicine and aims to accelerate the translation of new scientific discoveries into therapies that improve outcomes for patients with or at risk for Cardiovascular Disease. The journal covers thematic areas such as pre-clinical research, clinical trials, personalized medicine, novel drugs, devices, and biologics, proteomics, genomics, and metabolomics, as well as early phase clinical trial methodology.
