#OriginalResearch: The relationship between #IGF1R signaling and cardiac health seems biphasic. Increased signaling at old age accentuates cardiac dysfunction by reducing autophagy and mitochondrial oxidative capacity. Mahmoud Abdellatif #AHAJournals ahajrnls.org/3tbfghU


In print today, our Circulation paper resolving the controversy of whether IGF1R signaling is cardioprotective or detrimental. Turns out both are true, depending on whether the heart is young or old! >6 yrs, 5 reviewers, and many resubmisssions to reach this "simple" conclusion. ๐
