Pathological stresses induce heart failure in animal models through activation of multiple cardiac transcription factors (TFs) working cooperatively. However, interactions among TFs in human heart failure are less understood. Here, we use genomic data to examine the evidence that 5 candidate TF families coregulate gene expression in human heart failure.
