Circulation, 2022: Jun 21;145(25):1853-1866 PMID: 35616058Brief Summary: This translational study evaluated cardiac health and lifespan in two cardiomyocyte-specific transgenic mice with either enhanced or reduced IGF-1 signaling and in human cardiac biopsies from failing and nonfailing hearts. Increased IGF1R expression was related to better cardiac performance in young mice but faster decline of cardiac function with aging. Conversely reduced ...
