MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been extensively examined in pathological cardiac hypertrophy. However, few studies focused on profiling the miRNA alterations physiological hypertrophic hearts. In this study we generated a transgenic mouse model with cardiac-specific overexpression of miR-223. Our results showed that elevation miR-223 caused hypertrophy enhanced function but no fibrosis. Using next generation RNA sequencing, observed most dys-regulated genes (e.g. Atf3/5, Egr1/3, Sfrp2, Itgb1,...
