Research Abstract |
Clarify the mechanisms by which aging and diabetes are independent factor for the advancing the heart failure after myocardial infarction contribute to find a new therapeutic target for chronic heart failure. As shown in previous reports using animal model, we found that oxidative stress is increased in patients with heart failure, moreover, its concentration is associated with the severity and prognosis. We found the important role of DGKalpha, which exist in human heart but not in mice, in the process of ischemia reperfusion injury. We also found that oxidative stress modulated the kinase cascade, and modulated the SUMOylation and ubiquitination, finally induced myocardial injury.
