TY - T1 - Investigating the differential expression of sirtuins and microRNA in cardiac tissue of neonatal mice SN - / UR - URN:NBN:fi:hulib-201705104089; http://hdl.handle.net/10138/184223 T3 - A1 - Yoo, Bo Ram A2 - PB - Helsingfors universitet Y1 - 2017 LA - eng AB - Cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide. Upon myocardial infarction, billions of cardiomyocytes are lost, a fibrotic scar forms, and the heart's contractile function is compromised. Mammalian cardiomyocytes lose most of their proliferative capacity shortly after birth. This decline in proliferative capacity is associated with a switch from glycolysis to oxidative phosphorylation, yielding more ATP, but also inevitably forming reactive oxygen species (ROS). Ther...
