Ucp3 (Uncoupling Protein 3) Insufficiency Exacerbates Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction During Angiotensin Ii-Induced Hypertension, Xu Chen, Sadia Ashraf, Nadia Ashraf, Romain Harmancey
Ucp3 (Uncoupling Protein 3) Insufficiency Exacerbates Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction During Angiotensin Ii-Induced Hypertension, Xu Chen, Sadia Ashraf, Nadia Ashraf, Romain Harmancey
Journal Articles
Background Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, an early stage in the pathogenesis of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, is exacerbated by joint exposure to hypertension and obesity; however, the molecular mechanisms involved remain uncertain. The mitochondrial UCP3 (uncoupling protein 3) is downregulated in the heart with obesity. Here, we used a rat model of UCP3 haploinsufficiency (ucp3
