• Abstract

  Heart failure (HF) is a complex clinical syndrome that can arise as a consequence of a broad spectrum of structural and functional cardiac abnormalities. Cardiac hypertrophy as a consequence of hypertension is a compensatory mechanism that initially protects the heart, but excessive work overload is an important predictor of HF. Despite the importance of hypertrophy as a risk factor for t…

• Abstract

  Cardiac hypertrophy is an adaptive morphological response of the heart to work overload and is an important risk factor for myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure and sudden death. Cardiac hypertrophy in response to pressure overload is initially a beneficial response and the mechanisms responsible for transition from physiological cardiac hypertrophy or compensated hypertrophy t…

• Abstract

  Cardiac hypertrophy is an adaptive morphological response of the heart to work overload and is an important risk factor for myocardial infarction, heart failure and sudden death. Cardiac hypertrophy in response to pressure overload is initially a beneficial response and the mechanisms responsible for the transition of compensated cardiac hypertrophy or physiological to decompensated hyper…

• Abstract

  The aim of this work is the study hypertensive heart disease, heart failure and cardiac hypertrophy, and cytoskeletal proteins. Specifically, we will evaluate a group of structural proteins responsible for the connection between the intracellular and extracellular environment and provide structural stability to the cell membrane of the cardiomyocytes. The absence of one or more components…

• Abstract

  Chagas' disease, caused by the protozoan flagellate Trypanosoma cruzi infection, is endemic in 21 countries of South and Central Americas. The transmission via insects has been efficiently controlled in affected areas and blood transfusion and congenital infection are the most important sources of the disease in humans. Experimental production of Chagas' disease through infection of mice …
