Basigin Promotes Cardiac Fibrosis and Failure in Response to Chronic Pressure Overload in Mice

Abstract: Objective— Basigin (Bsg) is a transmembrane glycoprotein that activates matrix metalloproteinases and promotes inflammation. However, the role of Bsg in the pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy and failure remains to be elucidated. We examined the role of Bsg in cardiac hypertrophy and failure in mice and humans. Approach and Results— We performed transverse aortic constriction in Bsg +/– … Show more

“…BSG also exhibited high expression in LV of patients with cardiomyopathy [18,19]. Moreover, upregulation of serum or plasma sBSG was observed in patients with heart failure and ACS [20,26]. High expression of sBSG indicates an unfavorable prognosis in heart failure [20].…”

“…Moreover, upregulation of serum or plasma sBSG was observed in patients with heart failure and ACS [20,26]. High expression of sBSG indicates an unfavorable prognosis in heart failure [20]. In aging mice, cardiac-restricted overexpression of BSG caused adverse myocardial remodeling consisting of LV dilatation, hypertrophy, and fibrosis along with increase and activation of MMPs [21].…”
