Insulin-like growth factor-II induces hypertrophy of adult cardiomyocytes via two alternative pathways.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-II is known to induce hypertrophy of isolated adult rat ventricular cardiomyocytes cultured in the absence of serum. However, it is not known how the growth factor exerts this hypertrophic effect. We show here that IGF-II induces hypertrophy of the cultured cardiomyocytes via two alternative pathways: (1) an IGF-I receptor-dependent pathway, or (2) a lysosome-dependent pathway when the IGF-I receptor-dependent pathway is blocked.

Exercise for the heart: signaling pathways
Physical exercise, a potent functional intervention in protecting against cardiovascular diseases, is a hot topic in recent years. Exercise has been shown to reduce cardiac risk factors, protect against myocardial damage, and increase cardiac function. This improves quality of life and decreases mortality and morbidity in a variety of cardiovascular diseases, including myocardial infarction, ca...
متن کاملInsulin-like growth factor I stimulates myofibril development and decreases smooth muscle alpha-actin of adult cardiomyocytes.
Adult rat cardiomyocytes in long-term culture express type 1 insulin-like growth factor (IGF) receptors. In contrast to insulin receptors, type 1 IGF receptors are up-regulated during culturing. IGF-I added to the cells at plating increased granular density and pseudopodia number per cell after 7 days. After 16 days, IGF-I-treated cells showed, as compared with controls, a dramatic increase of ...

Buckwheat rutin has been found to be able to inhibit angiotensin II (AngII) - induced hypertrophy in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, but the mechanism remains uncertain. In this study, myocardial hypertrophy model was made by adding AngII to the medium of cardiac myocytes of neonatal rats, meanwhile, different concentrations of buckwheat rutin were applied to observe their effects. Intrac...

متن کاملType I insulin-like growth factor receptor signaling in skeletal muscle regeneration and hypertrophy.
Skeletal muscle is able not only to increase its mass as an adaptation to mechanical loading generated by and imposed upon muscle but also to regenerate after damage, via its intrinsic regulation of gene transcription. Both cellular processes, muscle regeneration and hypertrophy, are mediated by the activation, proliferation and differentiation of muscle satellite cells and appear to be modulat...
