RNA-seq transcriptonal profiling in mouse hearts under pressure overload
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Heart failure is a leading cause of death in US. Hypertension is one of the most important risk factor of heart failure. In the presence of high blood pressure, the heart manifests hypertrophic growth to ameliorate ventricular wall stress. This once adaptive response may progress into decompensation and heart failure. The precise mechanisms governing this transition remain elusive. Here, we take advantage of mouse surgical model transverce aortic constriction (TAC) to induce pressure overload in rodents. We harvest hearts at different time points post surgery and subject these samples for RNA-Seq analysis with an aim to identify early players in the process and elucidate the molecular mechanisms.
