Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In failing heart after myocardial infarction, HERPUD1 protein levels were increased. HERPUD1 was also increased in cardiomyocytes treated with H2O2. Homozygous HERPUD1 knockout mice exacerbated cardiac dysfunction after myocardial infarction. Overexpression of HERPUD1 by adenovirus ameliorated mitochondria dysfunction and cell death in cardiomyocytes treated with H2O2. HERPUD1 may have a protective role in failing heart after myocardial infarction by attenuating mitochondria dysfunction and cardiomyocytes death.
