G proteins in heart disease
1999
Heterotrimeric G proteins are the signal transducers for seven transmembrane spanning receptors, enabling receptor activation of individual downstream signaling pathways. Modified expression or activity of G proteins and their downstream effectors is postulated to play a role in cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. This paper reviews the evidence for and against a pathologic role for G proteins in cardiac disease.
