چکیده

Lung ischemia-reperfusion (I-R) is an important model of oxidant-mediated acute lung and vascular injury. Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is a cytoprotective gene that is markedly induced by lung I-R injury. HO-1 mRNA is increased in mouse lung after 30 min of lung hilar clamping (ischemia) followed by 2-6 h of unclamping (reperfusion) compared with control mice. In a variety of vascular cell types, HO-1 mRNA is induced after 24 h of anoxia followed by 30 min-1 h of reoxygenation (A-R). Transfection studies reveal that the promoter and 5'-distal enhancer E1 are necessary and sufficient for increased HO-1 gene transcription after A-R. Immunoblotting studies show all three subfamilies of MAPKs (ERK, JNK, and p38) are activated by 15 min of reperfusion. We also demonstrate that HO-1 gene transcription after A-R involves ERK, JNK, and p38 MAPK pathways. Together, our data show that I-R not only induces HO-1 gene expression in mouse lungs and vascular cells but that gene transcription occurs via the promoter and E1 enhancer and involves upstream MAPK pathways.

Alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone inhibits lung injury after renal ischemia/reperfusion.

Combined acute renal and pulmonary failure has a very high mortality. In animals, lung injury develops after shock or visceral or renal ischemia. Alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) is an antiinflammatory cytokine, which inhibits inflammatory, apoptotic, and cytotoxic pathways implicated in acute renal injury. We sought to determine if alpha-MSH inhibits acute lung injury after ren...

FR167653 diminishes infarct size in a murine model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.

OBJECTIVE During myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase is activated. We examined the effect of a highly specific inhibitor of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, FR167653, in an experimental model of regional myocardial ischemia-reperfusion. METHODS CD-1 mice received FR167653 intraperitoneally 24 hours before 30 minutes of transient occlusion of the l...

Introduction to Serial Review: Heme Oxygenase and Carbon Monoxide: Medicinal Chemistry and Biological Effects

Copyright © 2008 JCBN Heme oxygenase (HO) exists as constitutive (HO-2, HO-3) and inducible isoforms (HO-1), the latter which responds to regulation by multiple stress-stimuli [1]. Several signaling molecules (e.g., mitogen-activated protein kinases), transcriptional regulators (activator protein-1, NF-E2-related factor-2, hypoxia-inducible factor-1, Bach-1), as well as two enhancer regions in ...

Role of Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases in Myocardial Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury during Heart Transplantation

In solid organ transplantation, ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury during organ procurement, storage and reperfusion is an unavoidable detrimental event for the graft, as it amplifies graft inflammation and rejection. Intracellular mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways regulate inflammation and cell survival during IR injury. The four best-characterized MAPK subfamilies are t...

Expression of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases, glycogen synthase kinase, c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase, extracellular signal-regulated kinase signaling: Can it be used as molecular markers among trauma-hemorrhagic shock patients?

p38MAPK signaling pathway leads to the multi-organ injury caused by ischemia-reperfusion in animal models. Increased expression of p38MAPK is seen in ischemia-reperfusion models of kidney, liver, vascular and myocardial cells, and lung.[7] Yang et al. showed that in HS rats, MAPK’s signaling pathways indirectly regulate vascular activity.[8] A recent study reported that nuclear factor-kappa B i...
