TAT protein transduction into isolated perfused hearts: TAT-apoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain is cardioprotective.
BACKGROUND Linkage of the 11-amino-acid transduction domain of HIV TAT to a heterologous protein allows the protein to be transduced readily into cells. METHODS AND RESULTS In this study, we inserted the apoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain (ARC) or beta-galactosidase (beta-gal) cDNA into the pTAT-hemagglutinin bacterial expression vector to produce genetic in-frame TAT-ARC or ...
متن کاملApoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain is required for cardioprotection in response to biomechanical and ischemic stress.
BACKGROUND Ischemic heart disease and heart failure are associated with an increased loss of cardiomyocytes due to apoptosis. Whether cardiomyocyte apoptosis plays a causal role in the pathogenesis of heart failure remains enigmatic. The apoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain (ARC) is a recently discovered antiapoptotic factor with a highly specific expression pattern in striated m...
متن کاملApoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain protects against cell death by interfering with Bax activation.
Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) is associated with an extensive loss of myocardial cells. The apoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain (ARC) is a protein that is highly expressed in heart and skeletal muscle and has been demonstrated to protect the heart against I/R injury (Gustafsson, A. B., Sayen, M. R., Williams, S. D., Crow, M. T., and Gottlieb, R. A. (2002) Circulation 106...
متن کاملCrystal structure of caspase recruiting domain (CARD) of apoptosis repressor with CARD (ARC) and its implication in inhibition of apoptosis
Apoptosis repressor with caspase recruiting domain (ARC) is a multifunctional inhibitor of apoptosis that is unusually over-expressed or activated in various cancers and in the state of the pulmonary hypertension. Therefore, ARC might be an optimal target for therapeutic intervention. Human ARC is composed of two distinct domains, N-terminal caspase recruiting domain (CARD) and C-terminal P/E (...
متن کاملSNX13 reduction mediates heart failure through degradative sorting of apoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain.
Heart failure (HF) is associated with complicated molecular remodelling within cardiomyocytes; however, the mechanisms underlying this process remain unclear. Here we show that sorting nexin-13 (SNX13), a member of both the sorting nexin and the regulator of G protein signalling (RGS) protein families, is a potent mediator of HF. Decreased levels of SNX13 are observed in failing hearts of human...
