Increased expression of integrin-linked kinase improves cardiac function and decreases mortality in dilated cardiomyopathy model of rats.
AIMS: Integrin-linked kinase (ILK) is a multifunctional kinase linking the extracellular matrix to intracellular signaling pathways, whose activation in the heart gives rise to a number of functional consequences. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the therapeutic and survival benefit of cardia...
