Apoptosis 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 کاملApoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain, a multifunctional modulator of cell death
Apoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain (ARC) is a highly potent and multifunctional inhibitor of apoptosis that is physiologically expressed predominantly in post-mitotic cells such as cardiomyocytes, skeletal muscle cells and neurons. ARC was also found to be up-regulated in many forms of malignant tumours. ARC impairs the cellular apoptotic responsiveness to a wide range of stres...
متن کاملHydrogen sulfide protects cardiomyocytes from myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury by enhancing phosphorylation of apoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain.
Hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) displays an anti-apoptotic activity against myocardial ischemia reperfusion (MIR). Apoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain (ARC) is constitutively expressed in the heart and inhibits cell apoptosis when it is phosphorylated. Here, we investigated whether H(2)S could inhibit apoptosis by affecting ARC phosphorylation using cultured rat cardiomyocytes and a ...
متن کاملNovel cardiac apoptotic pathway: the dephosphorylation of apoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain by calcineurin.
BACKGROUND Apoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain (ARC) is abundantly expressed in cardiomyocytes. Protein kinase CK2 can phosphorylate ARC at threonine-149, thereby enabling ARC to antagonize apoptosis. ARC phosphorylation occurs in a constitutive manner. Nevertheless, cardiomyocytes still undergo apoptosis that is related to cardiac diseases such as myocardial infarction and hear...
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...
