Abstract
⺠The higher the expression of Cavβ2a in mice, the more Ca2+ influx and hypertrophy. ⺠Increased Ca2+ influx promotes hypertrophic response to TAC in mice. ⺠Cavβ2a expression induces cardiac myocyte hypertrophy in culture. ⺠Increased cytosolic Ca2+ activates calcineurin/NFAT pathway. ⺠SR-nuclear envelope Ca2+ release activates CaMK II/HDAC pathway.
