STING-IRF3 contributes to lipopolysaccharide-induced cardiac dysfunction, inflammation, apoptosis and pyroptosis by activating NLRP3
TL;DR: Investigation of the potential molecular mechanisms of STING in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced cardiac injury using STING global knockout mice revealed that STING deficiency could alleviate LPS-induced SIC in mice, suggesting that targeting STing in cardiomyocytes may be a promising therapeutic strategy for preventing SIC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ferritinophagy-mediated ferroptosis is involved in sepsis-induced cardiac injury
Ning Li,Wei Wang,Heng Zhou,Qing-Qing Wu,Mingxia Duan,Chen Liu,Hai-Ming Wu,Wei Deng,Difei Shen,Qi-Zhu Tang +9 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that ferritinophagy-mediated ferroptosis is one of the critical mechanisms contributing to sepsis-induced cardiac injury and Targeting ferroPTosis in cardiomyocytes may be a therapeutic strategy for preventing sepsi in the future.
Journal ArticleDOI
FNDC5 alleviates oxidative stress and cardiomyocyte apoptosis in doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity via activating AKT.
Xin Zhang,Can Hu,Chun-Yan Kong,Peng Song,Hai-Ming Wu,Si-Chi Xu,Yu-Pei Yuan,Wei Deng,Zhen-Guo Ma,Qi-Zhu Tang +9 more
TL;DR: Mechanistically, it was identified that FNDC5/Irisin activated AKT/mTOR signaling and decreased DOX-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis, and moreover, direct evidence was provided that the anti-oxidant effect of F NDC5 / irisin was mediated by the AKT /GSK3β/FYN/Nrf2 axis in an mTOR-independent manner.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms contributing to cardiac remodelling
Qing-Qing Wu,Yang Xiao,Yuan Yuan,Zhen-Guo Ma,Hai-Han Liao,Chen Liu,Jin-Xiu Zhu,Zheng Yang,Wei Deng,Qi-Zhu Tang +9 more
TL;DR: This review describes the key molecular and cellular responses involved in pathological cardiac remodelling, a precursor of clinical heart failure (HF).
Journal ArticleDOI
Matrine attenuates oxidative stress and cardiomyocyte apoptosis in doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity via maintaining AMPKα/UCP2 pathway
Can Hu,Xin Zhang,Wen-Ying Wei,Ning Zhang,Hai-Ming Wu,Zhen-Guo Ma,Ling-Li Li,Wei Deng,Qi-Zhu Tang +8 more
TL;DR: Mechanistically, it is found that matrine ameliorated DOX-induced uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) downregulation, and UCP2 inhibition by genipin could blunt the protective effect of matrine on DOx-induced oxidative stress and cardiomyocyte apoptosis, and it might be a promising therapeutic agent for the treatment of DOX -induced cardiotoxicity.
