Ischemic preconditioning protects by activating prosurvival kinases at reperfusion

Abstract

Pharmacological activation of the prosurvival kinases Akt and ERK-1/2 at reperfusion, after a period of lethal ischemia, protects the heart against ischemia-reperfusion injury. We hypothesized that ischemic preconditioning (IPC) protects the heart by phosphorylating the prosurvival kinases Akt and ERK-1/2 at reperfusion. In isolated perfused Sprague-Dawley rat hearts subjected to 35 min of lethal ischemia, the phosphorylation states of Akt, ERK-1/2, and p70 S6 kinase (p70S6K) were determined after 15 min of reperfusion, and infarct size was measured after 120 min of reperfusion. IPC induced a biphasic response in Akt and ERK-1/2 phosphorylation during the preconditioning and reperfusion phases after the period of lethal ischemia. IPC induced a fourfold increase in Akt, ERK-1/2, and p70S6K phosphorylation at reperfusion and reduced the infarct risk-to-volume ratio (56.9 ± 5.7 and 20.9 ± 3.6% for control and IPC, respectively, P < 0.01). Inhibiting the IPC-induced phosphorylation of Akt, ERK-1/2, and p70S6K at reperfusion with the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor LY-294002 or the MEK-1/2 inhibitor PD-98059 abrogated IPC-induced protection (46.3 ± 5.8, 49.2 ± 4.0, and 20.9 ± 3.6% for IPC + LY-294002, IPC + PD-98059, and IPC, respectively, P < 0.01), demonstrating that the phosphorylation of these kinases at reperfusion is required for IPC-induced protection. In conclusion, we demonstrate that the reperfusion phase following sustained ischemia plays an essential role in mediating IPC-induced protection. Specifically, we demonstrate that IPC protects the heart by phosphorylating the prosurvival kinases Akt and ERK-1/2 at reperfusion.

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.
