Early activation of IKKbeta during in vivo myocardial ischemia.

چکیده
We have demonstrated that in vitro brief ischemia activates nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB in rat myocardium. We report in vivo ischemia-reperfusion (I/R)-induced NF-kappaB activation, IkappaB kinase -beta (IKKbeta) activity, and IkappaBalpha phosphorylation and degradation in rat myocardium. Rat hearts were subjected to occlusion of the coronary artery for up to 45 min or occlusion for 15 min followed by reperfusion for up to 3 h. Cytoplasmic and nuclear proteins were isolated from ischemic and nonischemic areas of each heart. NF-kappaB activation was increased in the ischemic area (680%) after 10 min of ischemia and in the nonischemic area (350%) after 15 min of ischemia and remained elevated during prolonged ischemia and reperfusion. IKKbeta activity was markedly increased in ischemic (1,800%) and nonischemic (860%) areas, and phosphorylated IkappaBalpha levels were significantly elevated in ischemic (180%) and nonischemic (280%) areas at 5 min of ischemia and further increased after reperfusion. IkappaBalpha levels were decreased in the ischemic (45%) and nonischemic (36%) areas after 10 min of ischemia and remained low in the ischemic area during prolonged ischemia and reperfusion. The results suggest that in vivo I/R rapidly induces IKKbeta activity and increases IkappaBalpha phosphorylation and degradation, resulting in NF-kappaB activation in the myocardium.

IKKbeta inhibition attenuates myocardial injury and dysfunction following acute ischemia-reperfusion injury.
Despite years of experimental and clinical research, myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (IR) remains an important cause of cardiac morbidity and mortality. The transcription factor nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) has been implicated as a key mediator of reperfusion injury. Activation of NF-kappaB is dependent upon the phosphorylation of its inhibitor, IkappaBalpha, by the specific inhibitory kap...
متن کاملEffect of losartan on NOX2 transcription following acute myocardial ischemia-reperfusion
Introduction: Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase-2 (Nox2) is one of the predominant sources of ROS production during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion and can be induced by angiotensin II. The evidence suggests that pharmacological blockers of renin-angiotensin system can exert direct tissue effects independent of their ability to regulate blood pressure. The mechanism...
متن کاملModulating Toll-like receptor mediated signaling by (1-->3)-beta-D-glucan rapidly induces cardioprotection.
OBJECTIVE Immune and inflammatory signaling pathways, initiated by the innate response, are involved in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Toll-like receptor (TLR) mediated MyD88-dependent NFkappaB pathways play a role in the induction of innate immunity. We have reported that glucan phosphate (GP) improved survival in experimental sepsis, which correlated with decreased tissue NFkap...

Tracing ischemic memory by metabolic pathways: BMIPP and beyond
Myocardial ischemia (MI) resulting in infarction is an important cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Acute ischaemia rapidly impairs myocardial contractile function. Myocardial dysfunction persisting for several hours after transient non-lethal ischaemia, eventually resulting in full functional recovery is termed as myocardial stunning. Hibernation is now thought to be...
