Research Abstract |
Activation of cardiac STAT3 by IL-6 cytokine family contributes to cardioprotection. Previously, we demonstrated that IL-11, an IL-6 cytokine family, has the therapeutic potential to prevent adverse cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction. In this study we investigated the postconditioning effects of Interluekin-11 (IL-11) on ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury to address the possibility that IL-11 treatment improves clinical outcome of recanalization therapy against acute myocardial infarction. In addition, we clinically determined that the serum concentration of IL-11 before and after percutaneous coronary intervention against myocardial infarction. As a result, IL-11 administration exhibits the postconditioning effects through cardiac STAT3 activation, and the serum concentration of IL-11 was undetectable before and after recanalization therapy against myocardial infarction. The results of this study will propose the possibility of IL-11 as a novel cytokine therapy to prvent heart failure.
