Abstract
C/EBPB is a crucial transcription factor, participating in a variety of biological processes including cell proliferation, differentiation and development. In the cardiovascular system, C/EBPB-CITED4 signaling is known as a signaling pathway mediating exercise-induced cardiac growth. After its exact role in exercised heart firstly reported in 2010, more and more evidence confirmed that. MicroRNA (e.g. miR-222) and many molecules (e.g. Alpha-lipoic acid) can regulate this pathway and then involve in the cardiac protection effect induced by endurance exercise training. In addition, in cardiac growth during pregnancy, C/EBPB is also a required regulator. This chapter will give an introduction of the C/EBPB-CITED4 signaling and the regulatory network based on this signaling pathway in exercised heart.
