| Abstract | Apoptosis is a hallmark of multiple etiologies of heart failure, including dilated cardiomyopathy. Since microRNAs are master regulators of cardiac development and key effectors of intracellular signaling, they represent novel candidates for understanding the mechanisms driving the increased dysfunction and loss of cardiomyocytes during cardiovascular disease progression. To determine the role of cardiac miRNAs in the apoptotic response, we used microarray technology to monitor miRNA levels in a validated murine phospholambam mutant model of dilated cardiomyopathy. 24 miRNAs were found to be differentially expressed, most of which have not been previously linked to dilated cardiomyopathy. We showed that individual silencing of 7 out of 8 significantly down-regulated miRNAs (mir-1, -29c, -30c, -30d, -149, -486, -499) led to a strong apoptotic phenotype in cell culture, suggesting they repress pro-apoptotic factors. To identify putative miRNA targets most likely relevant to cell death, we computationally integrated transcriptomic, proteomic and functional annotation data. We showed the dependency of prioritized target abundance on miRNA expression using RNA interference and quantitative mass spectrometry. We concluded that down regulation of key pro-survival miRNAs causes up-regulation of apoptotic signaling effectors that contribute to cardiac cell loss, potentially leading to system decompensation and heart failure. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
