چکیده

BACKGROUND We have already reported that TNF-α increases cardiomyocyte apoptosis and IL-10 treatment prevented these effects of TNF-α. Present study investigates the role of Akt and Jak/Stat pathway in the IL-10 modulation of TNF-α induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Cardiomyocytes isolated from adult Sprague Dawley rats were exposed to TNF-α (10 ng/ml), IL-10 (10 ng/ml) and TNF-α+IL-10 (ratio 1) for 4 h. Exposure to TNF-α resulted in an increase in cardiomyocyte apoptosis as measured by flow cytometry and TUNEL assay. IL-10 by itself had no effect, but it prevented TNF-α induced apoptosis. IL-10 treatment increased Akt levels within cardiomyocytes and this change was associated with an increase in Jak1 and Stat3 phosphorylation. Pre-exposure of cells to Akt inhibitor prevented IL-10 induced Stat3 phosphorylation. Furthermore, in the presence of Akt or Stat3 inhibitor, IL-10 treatment was unable to block TNF-α induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis. CONCLUSION It is suggested that IL-10 modulation of TNF-α induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis is mediated by Akt via Stat3 activation.

Interplay of Phosphorylated Apoptosis Repressor with CARD, Casein Kinase-2 and Reactive Oxygen Species in Regulating Endothelin-1–Induced Cardiomyocyte Hypertrophy

Objective(s):  The role of the Apoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain (ARC) in apoptosis and in certain hypertrophic responses has been previously investigated, but its regulation of Endothelin-1 induced cardiac hypertrophy remains unknown. The present study discusses the inhibitory role of ARC against endothelin–induced hypertrophy. Results:In present study Endothelin treated car...

Prevention of Hypovolemic Circulatory Collapse by IL-6 Activated Stat3

Half of trauma deaths are attributable to hypovolemic circulatory collapse (HCC). We established a model of HCC in rats involving minor trauma plus severe hemorrhagic shock (HS). HCC in this model was accompanied by a 50% reduction in peak acceleration of aortic blood flow and cardiomyocyte apoptosis. HCC and apoptosis increased with increasing duration of hypotension. Apoptosis required resusc...

Ginkgetin induces apoptosis in 786-O cell line via suppression of JAK2-STAT3 pathway

Objective(s): Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is insensitive to conventional chemotherapy. Ginkgetin effectively treats several carcinoma cells. However, little is known about effects of Ginkgetin on RCC. In the present study, using 786-O cells, we evaluate whether Ginkgetin exerts anticancer effects against RCC. Materials and Methods: 786-O cells suspended in the medium containing Ginkgetin were c...

Naringenin Enhances the Anti-Cancer Effect of Cyclophosphamide against MDA-MB-231 Breast Cancer Cells Via Targeting the STAT3 Signaling Pathway

Naringenin is a natural compound with potential anti-cancer effects against several cancer types.  Also, its precise molecular mechanisms regarding tumor growth suppression has not been completely elucidated. In the current study the apoptosis-inducing and anti-proliferative effects of Naringenin together with cyclophosphamide were studied in breast cancer cells and the participation of JAK2/ST...
