Abstract: | Bursts in reactive oxygen species productionare important mediators of contractile dysfunction duringischemia-reperfusion injury. Cellular mechanisms that mediatereactive oxygen species-induced changes in cardiac myocyte functionhave not been fully characterized. In the present study,H2O2 (50 µM) decreased contractility of adultrat ventricular myocytes. H2O2 caused aconcentration- and time-dependent activation of extracellularsignal-regulated kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2), p38, and c-JunNH2-terminal kinase (JNK) mitogen-activated protein (MAP)kinases in adult rat ventricular myocytes. H2O2 (50 µM) caused transient activation of ERK1/2 and p38 MAP kinase thatwas detected as early as 5 min, was maximal at 20 min (9.6 ± 1.2- and 9.0 ± 1.6-fold, respectively, vs. control), and returned tobaseline at 60 min. JNK activation occurred more slowly (1.6 ± 0.2-fold vs. control at 60 min) but was sustained at 3.5 h. Theprotein kinase C inhibitor chelerythrine completely blocked JNKactivation and reduced ERK1/2 and p38 activation. The tyrosine kinaseinhibitors genistein and PP-2 blocked JNK, but not ERK1/2 and p38,activation. H2O2-inducedNa+/H+ exchanger phosphorylation was blocked bythe MAP kinase kinase inhibitor U-0126 (5 µM). These resultsdemonstrate that H2O2-induced activation of MAPkinases may contribute to cardiac myocyte dysfunction duringischemia-reperfusion. |
