Abstract

Activation of protein kinase Cε (PKCε), opening of mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K+channels (mitoK ATP), and increased mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) are key events in the signaling that underlies cardioprotection. We showed previously that mitoK ATP is opened by activation of a mitochondrial PKCε, designated PKCε1, that is closely associated with mitoK ATP. mitoK ATP opening then causes an increase in ROS production by complex I of the respiratory chain. This ROS activates a second pool of PKCε, designated PKCε2, which inhibits the mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT). In the present study, we measured mitoK ATP-dependent changes in mitochondrial matrix volume to further investigate the relationships among PKCε, mitoK ATP, ROS, and MPT. We present evidence that 1) mitoK ATP can be opened by H 2 O 2 and nitric oxide (NO) and that these effects are mediated by PKCε1 and not by direct actions on mitoK ATP, 2) superoxide has no effect on mitoK ATP opening, 3) exogenous H 2 O 2 or NO also inhibits MPT opening, and both compounds do so independently of mitoK ATP activity via activation of PKCε2, 4) mitoK ATP opening induced by PKG, phorbol ester, or diazoxide is not mediated by ROS, and 5) mitoK ATP-generated ROS activates PKCε1 and induces phosphorylation-dependent mitoK ATP opening in vitro and in vivo. Thus mitoK ATP-dependent mitoK ATP opening constitutes a positive feedback loop capable of maintaining the channel open after the stimulus is no longer present. This feedback pathway may be responsible for the lasting protective effect of preconditioning, colloquially known as the memory effect.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Activation of NOX via angiotensin II and the angiotensin II type 1 receptor is mediated by PKC; PKCε is also an activator of the KATP channel, which stimulates mitochondrial ROS production.

    “Of note, the activation of NOX via angiotensin II and the angiotensin II type 1 receptor is mediated by PKC; however, the isoform PKCε is also an activator of the KATP channel, which, as indicated, also stimulates mitochondrial ROS production (FIGURE 17) (187, 242).”

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.
