Journal ArticleDOI

IL-33 and ST2 comprise a critical biomechanically induced and cardioprotective signaling system

TL;DR: IL-33/ST2 signaling is a mechanically activated, cardioprotective fibroblast-cardiomyocyte paracrine system, which is believed to be novel and may have therapeutic potential for beneficially regulating the myocardial response to overload.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interleukin-33 Prevents Apoptosis and Improves Survival After Experimental Myocardial Infarction Through ST2 Signaling

TL;DR: IL-33 prevents cardiomyocyte apoptosis and improves cardiac function and survival after MI through ST2 signaling and both echocardiographic and hemodynamic studies revealed that IL-33 improved ventricular function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protein Kinase A as Another Mediator of Ischemic Preconditioning Independent of Protein Kinase C

TL;DR: Transient preischemic activation of PKA reduces infarct size through Rho-kinase inhibition and actin cytoskeletal deactivation during sustained ischemia, implicating a novel mechanism for cardioprotection by ischemic preconditioning independent of PKC and a potential new therapeutic target.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimal Windows of Statin Use for Immediate Infarct Limitation 5-Nucleotidase as Another Downstream Molecule of Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effect of statins on ischemic-reperfusion injury and the underlying mechanisms of such effects in an in vivo canine model, and they found that myocardial phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-K) and 5′-nucleotidase activities were measured.
Journal ArticleDOI

Opening of Ca2+-activated K+ channels is involved in ischemic preconditioning in canine hearts.

TL;DR: The opening of K(Ca) channel is involved in early trigger phase of the molecular mechanism of IP, and the cardioprotective effect of IP was not blunted by the treatment with ChTX when treated only during reperfusion.
