The Effect of Eight Weeks of Intermittent Training with Quercetin Encapsulated Nanoparticles on JNK and ERK Apoptosis Regulators in the Rat Model of Myocardial Infarction

Introduction: Restoration of blood flow to the ischemic heart muscle causes infarction and myocyte death. Quercetin can be effective in treating heart disease due to its antioxidant effect, but its use is limited due to its low solubility in water. Quercetin restriction can be removed by embedding it in carrier nanoparticles. The present study was designed to determine the effect of quercetin e...

New Treatment Strategies for Alcohol-Induced Heart Damage

High-dose alcohol misuse induces multiple noxious cardiac effects, including myocyte hypertrophy and necrosis, interstitial fibrosis, decreased ventricular contraction and ventricle enlargement. These effects produce diastolic and systolic ventricular dysfunction leading to congestive heart failure, arrhythmias and an increased death rate. There are multiple, dose-dependent, synchronic and syne...

Acute Catecholamine Exposure Causes Reversible Myocyte Injury Without Cardiac Regeneration.

RATIONALE Catecholamines increase cardiac contractility, but exposure to high concentrations or prolonged exposures can cause cardiac injury. A recent study demonstrated that a single subcutaneous injection of isoproterenol (ISO; 200 mg/kg) in mice causes acute myocyte death (8%-10%) with complete cardiac repair within a month. Cardiac regeneration was via endogenous cKit(+) cardiac stem cell-m...

A mechanistic role for cardiac myocyte apoptosis in heart failure.

Heart failure is a common, lethal condition whose pathogenesis is poorly understood. Recent studies have identified low levels of myocyte apoptosis (80-250 myocytes per 10(5) nuclei) in failing human hearts. It remains unclear, however, whether this cell death is a coincidental finding, a protective process, or a causal component in pathogenesis. Using transgenic mice that express a conditional...

Cardiac myocyte apoptosis provokes adverse cardiac remodeling in transgenic mice with targeted TNF overexpression.

Although cardiac myocyte apoptosis has been detected in explanted hearts from patients with end-stage dilated and ischemic cardiomyopathy, the relative contribution of apoptotic cell death to left ventricular (LV) remodeling and cardiac decompensation is not known. To determine whether progressive cardiac myocyte apoptosis contributes to the transition from a hypertrophic to a dilated cardiac p...
