Hemoglobin S-nitrosylation plays an essential role in cardioprotection.
Homeostatic control of tissue oxygenation is achieved largely through changes in blood flow that are regulated by the classic physiological response of hypoxic vasodilation. The role of nitric oxide (NO) in the control of blood flow is a central tenet of cardiovascular biology. However, extensive evidence now indicates that hypoxic vasodilation entails S-nitrosothiol-based (SNO-based) vasoactiv...
متن کاملEquilibrative nucleoside transporter 1 plays an essential role in cardioprotection.
To better understand the role of equilibrative nucleoside transporters (ENT) in purine nucleoside-dependent physiology of the cardiovascular system, we investigated whether the ENT1-null mouse heart was cardioprotected in response to ischemia (coronary occlusion for 30 min followed by reperfusion for 2 h). We observed that ENT1-null mouse hearts showed significantly less myocardial infarction c...
متن کاملProtein S-nitrosylation and cardioprotection.
Nitric oxide (NO) plays an important role in the regulation of cardiovascular function. In addition to the classic NO activation of the cGMP-dependent pathway, NO can also regulate cell function through protein S-nitrosylation, a redox dependent, thiol-based, reversible posttranslational protein modification that involves attachment of an NO moiety to a nucleophilic protein sulfhydryl group. Th...
متن کاملProtein kinase C plays an essential role in sildenafil-induced cardioprotection in rabbits.
Sildenafil citrate (Viagra) is the most widely used pharmacological drug for treating erectile dysfunction in men. It has potent cardioprotective effects against ischemia-reperfusion injury via nitric oxide and opening of mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K(+) channels. We further investigated the role of protein kinase C (PKC)-dependent signaling pathway in sildenafil-induced cardioprotection. Rabbi...
متن کاملOestrogen plays a permissive role in cardioprotection.
Ischaemic preconditioning (IPC) is a powerful cardioprotective intervention. It can salvage upwards of 75% of the myocardium destined to otherwise infarct. This potent cardioprotective strategy has been observed in all animal species examined to date including mammals and birds. We have observed IPC’s protection in non-human primates (unpublished observation) and strong evidence exists of its e...
