Research Abstract |
It is well known that sympathetic and thus catecholamine signal is activated thereafter to compensate cardiac dysfunction. The mechanism of such compensation by catecholamine has been traditionally understood as PKA-mediated enforcement of cardiac contractility. We hypothesized that Epac, a new target of cAMP signal that functions independently from PKA, also plays a key role. Epac1 inhibited the Jak-STAT pathway and iNOS protein in the heart in response via IL-6. Activation of the cAMP/Epac pathway protected the heart against cytokine-induced cardiac dysfunction, suggesting a new role of catecholamine signal in compensating cardiac dysfunction in endotoxemia.
