Abstract:
:We have recently demonstrated that myocardial adaptation to ischemia triggers a tyrosine kinase regulated signaling pathway leading to the translocation and activation of p38 MAP kinase and MAPKAP kinase 2. Since oxidative stress is developed during ischemic adaptation and since free radicals have recently been shown to function as an intracellular signaling agent leading to the activation of nuclear transcription factor, NFkappaB, we examined whether NFkappaB was involved in the ischemic adaptation process. Isolated perfused rat hearts were adapted to ischemic stress by repeated ischemia and reperfusion. Hearts were pretreated with genistein to block tyrosine kinase while SB 203580 was used to inhibit p38 MAP kinases. Ischemic adaptation was associated with the nuclear translocation and activation of NFkappaB which was significantly blocked by both genistein and SB 203580. The ischemically adapted hearts were more resistant to ischemic reperfusion injury as evidenced by better function recovery and less tissue injury during post-ischemic reperfusion. Ischemic adaptation developed oxidative stress which was reflected by increased malonaldehyde formation. A synthetic peptide containing a cell membrane-permeable motif and nuclear sequence, SN 50, which blocked nuclear translocation of NFkappaB during ischemic adaptation, significantly inhibited the beneficial effects of adaptation on functional recovery and tissue injury. In concert, SN 50 reduced the oxidative stress developed in the adapted myocardium. These results demonstrate that p38 MAP kinase might be upstream of NFkappaB which plays a role in ischemic preconditioning of heart.
