Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Intracellular Ca2+ overload during ischemia/reperfusion in myocardium is responsible for cellular injury leading to cardiac dysfunction, namely ischemia/reperfusion injury. Because various Ca2+ transport proteins, such as type 2 ryanodine receptor (RyR2) and store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) channel, are involved in Ca2+ overload-induced cellular injury, we investigated whether blocking these channels is effective in reducing the cardiac ischemia/reperfusion injury. In mouse hearts subjected to ischemia/reperfusion, contractile functions of left ventricle were significantly reduced compared with these baseline value. In contrast, administration of RyR2 blocker or SOCE channel blockers ameliorated the contractile dysfunction after ischemia/reperfusion. These results indicate that RyR2 and SOCE channel are involved in the development of cardiac ischemia/reperfusion injury and can provide the potential therapeutic targets to prevent the heart from ischemia/reperfusion injury.
