Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
GRK2ct GRK2 inhibitor GRK2ct corresponding to the carboxyl-terminal 194 amino acids of GRK2 is expressed in failing cardiac fibroblasts using an adenoviral-mediated approach driven by the CMV promoter. Inhibition restores beta-agonist stimulated inhibition of collagen synthesis and decreases collagen synthesis in response to TGF beta stimulation Homo sapiens

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction overexpression of GRK2 in normal cardiac fibroblasts recapitulates a heart failure phenotype with minimal inhibition of collagen synthesis following beta-agonist stimulation. Knockdown of GRK2 expression in normal cardiac fibroblasts enhances cAMP production and leads to greater beta-agonist-mediated inhibition of basal and TGF beta-stimulated collagen synthesis versus control. Inhibition of GRK2 activity in failing cardiac fibroblasts by expression of the GRK2 inhibitor, GRK2ct, or siRNA-mediated knockdown restores beta-agonist stimulated inhibition of collagen synthesis and decreases collagen synthesis in response to TGF beta stimulation Homo sapiens
