Abstract | OBJECTIVE: METHODS: Pressure-overload cardiac hypertrophy (POH) was developed in 8-week-old male Sprague Dawley rats by abdominal aortic banding. The rats were divided into three groups at the age of 20 weeks: POH without failure group, reversed POH with drugs group, and POH with failure group on high diet. Western Blot analysis, co-immunoprecipitation and proteomic analysis were performed in ventricular tissues of rat hearts. RESULTS: CONCLUSION: Chronic administration of carvedilol and fosinopril could reverse the development of POH and delay the appearance of HF, partly by regulating PKC epsilon level and its signaling complex. MAD1 and Lyn A may be important proteins participating in the reversing process.
