Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I investigated the role of myocardial suppressor of cytokine signaling-3 (SOCS3), an intrinsic negative feedback regulator of the JAK-STAT signaling pathway, in the pathophysiology of myocardial ischemic preconditioning (IPC) and myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). Activation of STAT3 was rapidly peaked and was inactivated after IPC. The infarct size 24 hour after IRI was reduced in SOCS3-CKO. These results suggested that progression of myocardial IRI was prevented in SOCS3-CKO hearts. Cardiac-specific SOCS3 deletion enhanced cardioprotective signaling pathway by ischemic preconditioning.
