GRK2 and hydrops fetalis: <b>Methods:</b> Using an integrated in vitro-ex vivo-in vivo methodological approach, we will evaluate the density of β1/β2-AR receptors, the downstream signaling (GRK2/β-arrestin), mitochondrial and redox parameters, and miRNA profiles in human monocytes and cardiomyocytes, and in mouse hearts after HF following pressure overload.
