The loss of ability to proliferate (terminal differentiation) and reduction in capability to resist ischemia are key phenomena observed during postnatal development of the heart. Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) mediate signaling pathways for cell proliferation/differentiation and stress re

The control of glucose uptake and glycogen metabolism by insulin in target organs is in part mediated through the regulation of protein-serine/threonine kinases. In this study, the expression and phosphotransferase activity levels of some of these kinases in rat heart ventricle were measured to inve
During early postnatal development, cardiomyocytes, which comprise about 80% of ventricular mass and volume, become phenotypically developed to facilitate their contractile functions and terminally differentiated to grow only in size but not in cell number. These changes are due to the expression of
Background: Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) is a peptide growth factor whose biological effects are mediated through a specific receptor (IGF-IR). IGF-I and IGF-IR are detected in both fetal and adult kidneys and have both metabolic and growth effects. IGF-IR expression during postnatal kidney
