Essential role of GATA-4 in cell survival and drug-induced cardiotoxicity
Open accessAbstract
In recent years, significant progress has been made in understanding cardiomyocyte differentiation. However, little is known about the regulation of myocyte survival despite the fact that myocyte apoptosis is a leading cause of heart failure. Here we report that transcription factor GATA-4 is a survival factor for differentiated, postnatal cardiomyocytes and an upstream activator of the antiapoptotic gene Bcl-X. An early event in the cardiotoxic effect of the antitumor drug doxorubicin is GATA-4 depletion, which in turn causes cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Mouse heterozygotes for a null Gata4 allele have enhanced susceptibility to doxorubicin cardiotoxicity. Genetic or pharmacologic enhancement of GATA-4 prevents cardiomyocyte apoptosis and drug-induced cardiotoxicity. The results indicate that GATA-4 is an antiapoptotic factor required for the adaptive stress response of the adult heart. Modulation of survival/apoptosis genes by tissue-specific transcription factors may be a general paradigm that can be exploited effectively for cell-specific regulation of apoptosis in disease states.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
