IGF1R and familial dilated cardiomyopathy: Here, we characterised mouse atria from (1) a pathological model (cardiomyocyte-specific transgenic (Tg) that develops dilated cardiomyopathy [DCM] and AF due to reduced protective signalling [PI3K]; DCM-dnPI3K), and (2) a physiological model (cardiomyocyte-specific Tg with an enlarged heart due to increased insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor; IGF1R).
