Abstract

We recently reported that α 1-adrenoceptor (α 1-AR) stimulation induces hypertrophy via activation of the mitogen/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (MEK) 1/2-extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2 pathway and generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) in adult rat ventricular myocytes (ARVM). Here we investigate the intracellular source of ROS in ARVM and the mechanism by which ROS activate hypertrophic signaling after α 1-AR stimulation. Pretreatment of ARVM with the ROS scavenger Mn(III)terakis(1-methyl-4-pyridyl) porphyrin pentachloride (MnTMPyP) completely inhibited the α 1-AR-stimulated activation of Ras-MEK1/2-ERK1/2. Direct addition of H 2 O 2 or the superoxide generator menadione activated ERK1/2, which is also prevented by MnTMPyP pretreatment. We found that ARVM express gp91 phox, p22 phox, p67 phox, and p47 phox, four major components of NAD(P)H oxidase, and that α 1-AR-stimulated ERK1/2 activation was blocked by four structurally unrelated inhibitors of NAD(P)H oxidase [diphenyleneiodonium, phenylarsine oxide, 4-(2-aminoethyl)benzenesulfonyl fluoride, and cadmium]. Conversely, inhibitors for other potential ROS-producing systems, including mitochondrial electron transport chain, nitric oxide synthase, xanthine oxidase, and cyclooxygenase, had no effect on α 1-AR-stimulated ERK1/2 activation. Taken together, our results show that ventricular myocytes express components of an NAD(P)H oxidase that appear to be involved in α 1-AR-stimulated hypertrophic signaling via ROS-mediated activation of Ras-MEK1/2-ERK1/2.

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.
