Effects of the urocortin family of peptides on cardiac neonatal myocytes, antiapoptotic and hypertrophic effects
Urocortin 1 (UCN) and its homologues Urocortin 2 (UCN2/SRP) and urocortin 3 (UCN3/SCP) belong to the corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) family of peptides. CRF peptides have been shown to affect cardiovascular physiology. The effects of the peptides on cardioprotection after hypoxia/reoxygenation...
