General Information

General Information Comment Organism
drug target restoration of FASTK expression through genetic approaches might be a promising therapeutic strategy for alcoholic cardiomyopathy (ACM) Mus musculus
malfunction compared to wild type control, alcohol-related myocardial morphological (hypertrophy, fibrosis and cardiomyocyte apoptosis) and functional (reduced ejection fraction and compromised cardiomyocyte contraction) anomalies are worsened in FASTK deficient mice Mus musculus
physiological function the enzyme is a key post-transcriptional regulator of mitochondrial gene expression. Accelerated FASTK mRNA degradation induced by oxidative stress is responsible for the destroyed myocardial mitochondrial gene expression and respiratory function in alcoholic cardiomyopathy Mus musculus
