Rapamycin Attenuates Cardiac Fibrosis in Experimental Uremic Cardiomyopathy by Reducing Marinobufagenin Levels and Inhibiting Downstream Pro‐Fibrotic Signaling

BACKGROUND: Experimental uremic cardiomyopathy causes cardiac fibrosis and is causally related to the increased circulating levels of the cardiotonic steroid, marinobufagenin (MBG), which signals through Na/K‐ATPase. Rapamycin is an inhibitor of the serine/threonine kinase mammalian target of rapamy...
