Abstract:
AIM: To investigate the expression of mitog en -activated protein kinase phosphatase-1 (MKP-1) in cardiac ventricle muscles of spontane ously hypertensive rats and Wistar Kyoto rats at different ages and the relati onship between MKP-1 and myocardial hypertrophy. METHODS: The ratio of left ventricle weight to body weight (LVW/ BW) was measured to reflect myocardial hypertrophy. Protein expression of p-ERK was detected by Western blotting. MKP-1 mRNA in cardiac ventricle muscles was ex amined by RT-PCR. RESULTS: (1) The blood pressure (P
