“…Almost all TRPC isoforms are differentially expressed in left ventricular tissue and cells isolated from experimental animal models of LV remodeling and dysfunction, and in myocardial biopsies from failing human hearts ( Table 1 and Figure 1 ). Indeed, in different in vivo experimental rodent models of hypertrophy and HF induced by pressure or volume overload (abdominal, ascending or transverse aortic constriction, Dahl salt-sensitive, spontaneously hypertensive (SHR), myocardial infraction, ischemia-reperfusion injury) or by neurohormonal stress (PE, Endothelin-1 (ET-1), AngII, Isoproterenol), an increased expression of TRPC1 [ 54 , 57 , 59 , 65 , 82 , 88 , 89 , 90 , 91 , 92 ], TRPC2 [ 90 ], TRPC3 [ 59 , 90 , 93 , 94 , 95 , 96 ], TRPC4 [ 59 , 81 , 97 ], TRPC5 [ 83 ] and TRPC6 [ 59 , 72 , 81 , 90 , 94 , 95 , 96 , 98 , 99 , 100 , 101 , 102 , 103 , 104 ] has been reported. Additionally, increased TRPC1 and TRPC5 expression in failing human hearts [ 93 , 105 , 106 ], increased TRPC6 mRNA in human LV with dilated cardiomyopathy [ 100 ], and decreased expression of TRPC4 in isolated LV myocytes from patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy and severe HF have been shown [ 105 , 107 ] (…”
