Raf kinase inhibitor protein mediates myocardial fibrosis under conditions of enhanced myocardial oxidative stress

 

Fibrosis is a hallmark of maladaptive cardiac remodelling. Here we report that genome-wide quantitative trait locus (QTL) analyses
in recombinant inbred mouse lines of C57BL/6 J and DBA2/J strains identified Raf Kinase Inhibitor Protein (RKIP) as genetic
marker of fibrosis progression.

Sympathoadrenergic suppression improves heart function by upregulating the ratio of sRAGE/RAGE in hypertension with metabolic syndrome

 

Receptors-for-Advanced-Glycation-End-products (RAGE) activate pro-inflammatory programs mediated by carboxymethyllysine (CML) and high-mobility-group-box1 protein (HMGB1). The soluble isoform sRAGE neutralizes RAGE-ligands preventing cardiovascular complications in conditions associated with increased sympathetic activation like hypertension and diabetes..
