Abstract

Objective To evaluate the functional requirement of signal transducer and activator of transcription-3 (STAT-3) in cardiac myocyte tolerance to ischemia (I) and in classical preconditioning. Methods Cardiac myocyte STAT-3 was depleted in mice using Cre-lox p technology. Isolated cardiomyocytes from wild-type (WT) and STAT-3-deficient mice were evaluated for viability following simulated ischemia (SI; 26 h). Cardiomyocytes were then preconditioned by exposure to transient simulated ischemia or via the administration of preconditioning mimetics (100 microM adenosine, 100 microM diazoxide and 0.5 ng ml(-1) TNFalpha, individually and in combination) prior to index ischemia. To evaluate the effect of cardiac myocyte depletion of STAT-3 in the context of the intact heart, these experiments were performed in isolated perfused Langendorff heart preparations which were exposed to an index insult of 30-min global ischemia and 45-min reperfusion. Ischemic preconditioning was achieved by subjecting the hearts to four cycles of 5-min ischemia followed by 5-min reperfusion prior to index ischemia. Infarct size was measured following reperfusion. Results Cell viability was diminished equally in wild-type and STAT-3-depleted cardiomyocytes. In contrast, ischemic and pharmacological preconditioning protected wild-type cardiomyocytes but not STAT-3-deficient cardiomyocytes. These results were mirrored in the intact heart. Conclusion The depletion of functional STAT-3 does not modulate toleranc…

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
