Rac is a member of the Rho family of small GTPases and acts as a molecular switch. When GTP-bound, Rac binds specific effectors to induce downstream signaling events, including actin cytoskeletal rearrangements (Hall, Science 1998;279:509-514). Herein we review the recent evidence suggesting that Ra
## Abstract Ca^2+^ signaling pathways are well studied in cardiac myocytes, but not in cardiac fibroblasts. The aim of the present study is to characterize Ca^2+^ signaling pathways in cultured human cardiac fibroblasts using confocal scanning microscope and RTβPCR techniques. It was found that spo
## Abstract Peroxisome proliferatorβactivated receptors Ξ΄ (PPARΞ΄) is known to be expressed ubiquitously, and the predominant PPAR subtype of cardiac cells. However, relatively less is known regarding the role of PPARΞ΄ in cardiac cells except that PPARΞ΄ ligand treatment protects cardiac hypertrophy
