Novel Therapy for Ischemic and Pressure-Overload Heart Diseases
This novel therapy involves using valosin-containing protein (VCP) to prevent or treat ischemic and pressure overload-induced heart disease. Inactivation and reduced VCP expression are highly associated with multiple cardiac diseases. Overexpression of VCP in the heart has been found to reduce infarct size during ischemia-reperfusion injury and also...
