- Abstract:
- ... Pulmonary hypertension (PH) leads to right ventricular (RV) adaptation and remodeling and has deleterious long-term effects on RV function. The endocannabinoid receptor CB2 has been associated with protective effects in adaptation and remodeling of the left ventricle after ischemia. Therefore, we investigated the role of CB2 receptor in RV adaptation after occlusion of the left pulmonary artery (L ...

- Abstract:
- ... Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-α is downregulated in ischemic myocardium resulting in substrate switch from fatty acid oxidation to glucose utilization. Pharmacological PPAR-α activation leads to increased fatty acid oxidation and myocardial lipotoxicity. The aim of our study was to investigate the role of cardiomyocyte specific PPAR-α overexpression in myocardial adaptation to ...
