Heart failure
0.600 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Its absolute values were approximately 350 fmol/mg cytosolic protein, and its expression was not changed in heart failure. beta-Arrestin-2 levels were too low to be detectable using the same methods. beta ARK levels as determined by enzymatic activity were approximately 20 fmol/mg cytosolic protein (beta ARK-1 plus beta ARK-2) and thus almost 20-fold lower than those of beta-arrestin. beta ARK levels were increased approximately twofold in heart failure.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 8293560 1994

CUI: C0018801
Disease: Heart failure
Heart failure
0.600 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE In the heart, the major GRK isoforms, GRK2 and GRK5, undergo upregulation due to the heightened sympathetic nervous system activity that is characteristic of HF as catecholamine levels increase in an effort to drive the failing pump. 21622221 2011

Disease: Heart failure
Heart failure
0.600 Biomarker disease BEFREE One of these newly discovered cardiotoxic effects of GRK2, uncovered by our laboratory, is promotion by adrenal GRK2 of sympathetic hyperactivity of the failing heart, a significant morbidity factor in HF, targeted therapeutically nowadays by the use of beta-blockers in HF pharmacotherapy. 22229578 2012
