Protocatechuic acid attenuates isoproterenol-induced cardiac hypertrophy via downregulation of ROCK1–Sp1–PKCγ axis

Abstract Cardiac hypertrophy is an adaptive response of the myocardium to pressure overload or adrenergic agonists. Here, we investigated the protective effects and the regulatory mechanism of protocatechuic acid, a phenolic compound, using a mouse model of isoproterenol-induced cardiac hypertrophy....
