Abstract: Cardiac growth and remodeling (G&R) refers to structural changes in myocardial tissue in response to chronic alterations in loading conditions. One such condition is pressure overload where elevated wall stresses stimulate the growth in cardiomyocyte… read more here.

Abstract: Introduction: During pregnancy, the maternal heart undergoes physiological cardiac growth, which reverses following parturition; however, the underlying processes that contribute are largely unknown. Changes in both systemic and cardiac metabolism appear to be associated with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1161/circulationaha.117.028274
Abstract: Background: Exercise promotes metabolic remodeling in the heart, which is associated with physiological cardiac growth; however, it is not known whether or how physical activity–induced changes in cardiac metabolism cause myocardial remodeling. In this study,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1242/jeb.135046
Abstract: ABSTRACT Stress and elevated cortisol levels are associated with pathological heart growth and cardiovascular disease in humans and other mammals. We recently established a link between heritable variation in post-stress cortisol production and cardiac growth… read more here.
