Abstract

Endonuclease G and heart disease Elevated left ventricular mass, a highly heritable trait, is an important risk factor for heart failure and death. Stuart Cook and colleagues genetically dissect a locus in the rat associated with blood-pressure-independent cardiac hypertrophy and identify endonuclease G (ENDOG) as a key regulator of hypertrophy at this locus. They further show that the Endog gene is involved in proper mitochondrial function and is modulated by ERR-α and PGC1α, master regulators of mitochondrial and cardiac function. Loss of function of ENDOG causes impaired mitochondrial respiration and increased production of reactive oxygen species, which may contribute to the observed cardiac hypertrophy.
