Epigenetic switch at atp2a2 and myh7 gene promoters in pressure overload-induced heart failure.

Re-induction of fetal genes and/or re-expression of postnatal genes represent hallmarks of pathological cardiac remodeling, and are considered important in the progression of the normal heart towards heart failure (HF). Whether epigenetic modifications are involved in these processes is currently un...
