In response to pathologic stresses such as hypertension or myocardial infarction, the heart undergoes a remodeling process that is characterized by myocyte hypertrophy, myocyte death and fibrosis, resulting in impaired cardiac function and heart failure. Cardiac remodeling is associated with derepression of genes that contribute to disease progression. This review focuses on evidence linking members of the Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaMK) superfamily, specifically CaMKII, protein kinase D (PKD) and microtubule associated kinase (MARK), to stress-induced derepression of pathological cardiac gene expression through their effects on class IIa histone deacetylases (HDACs).
