Cardiac-Specific Expression of the Tetracycline Transactivator Confers Increased Heart Function and Survival Following Ischemia Reperfusion Injury

Mice expressing the tetracycline transactivator (tTA) transcription factor driven by the rat α-myosin heavy chain promoter (α-MHC-tTA) are widely used to dissect the molecular mechanisms involved in cardiac development and disease. However, these α-MHC-tTA mice exhibit a gain-of-function phenotype c...
