Integrated Stress Response Couples Mitochondrial Protein Translation With Oxidative Stress Control.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The integrated stress response (ISR) is an evolutionarily conserved process to cope with intracellular and extracellular disturbances. Myocardial infarction is a leading cause of death worldwide. Coronary artery reperfusion, the most effective means to mitigate cardiac damage of myocardial infarction, causes additional reperfusion injury. This study aimed to investigate the role of the ISR in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R).

Methods

Cardiac-specific gain- and loss-of-function approaches for the ISR were used in vivo. Myocardial I/R was achieved by ligation of the cardiac left anterior descending artery for 45 minutes followed by reperfusion for different times. Cardiac function was assessed by echocardiography.
