SERCA2a upregulation ameliorates cellular alternans induced by metabolic inhibition.
Cardiac alternans has been associated with the incidence of ventricular tachyarrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of impaired mitochondrial function in the genesis of cellular alternans and to examine whether modulating the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)ameliorates the level of alternans. Cardiomyocytes isolated from control and doxycylin...
متن کاملMechanism of peroxynitrite interaction with cytochrome c.
Kinetics of the reaction of peroxynitrite with ferric cytochrome c in the absence and presence of bicarbonate was studied. It was found that the heme iron in ferric cytochrome c does not react directly with peroxynitrite. The rates of the absorbance changes in the Soret region of cytochrome c spectrum caused by peroxynitrite or peroxynitrite/bicarbonate were the same as the rate of spontaneous ...
متن کاملIschemia-reperfusion-induced calpain activation and SERCA2a degradation are attenuated by exercise training and calpain inhibition.
The Ca2+-activated protease calpain has been shown to play a deleterious role in the heart during ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). We tested the hypothesis that exercise training would minimize I/R-induced calpain activation and provide cardioprotection against I/R-induced injury. Hearts from adult male rats were isolated in a working heart preparation, and myocardial injury was induced with 25 min ...
متن کاملRegulation of catalase: inhibition by peroxynitrite and reactivation by reduced glutathione and glutathione S-transferase.
The regulation of stable catalase from Aspergillus niger was investigated. The preincubation of catalase with peroxynitrite (PN) resulted in a significant decrease in the production of O2, while the subsequent incubation with reduced glutathione (GSH, 1mM) led to restoration of the enzymatic activity. Western blot analysis revealed not only the increased immunoreactivities of 3-nitrotyrosine an...
متن کاملInhibition of acetylcholine synthesis and tyrosine nitration induced by peroxynitrite are differentially prevented by antioxidants.
Evidence of an overload of reactive oxygen species and peroxynitrite, a derivative of nitric oxide, in sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis suggests that peroxynitrite could impair cholinergic functions. Because of the impossibility of obtaining synaptosomes from vertebrate neuromuscular junctions, we used cholinergic synaptosomes purified from Torpedo marmorata electroneurons to characterize...
