Increased Myocardial Dysfunction After Ischemia-Reperfusion in Mice Lacking Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase

Abstract: Background-Free radical injury contributes to cardiac dysfunction during ischemia-reperfusion. Detoxification of free radicals requires maintenance of reduced glutathione (GSH) by NADPH. The principal mechanism responsible for generating NADPH and maintaining GSH during periods of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion remains unknown. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), the rate-limiting enzyme in the pentose phosphate pathway, generates NADPH in a reaction linked to the de novo production of ribose. We theref… Show more

“…The importance of this metabolic pathway in tumorigenesis has been reported. 14,41 The key enzyme of the oxidative branch, G6PDH, has been broadly studied under different physiological situations such as ischemia, 42 growth factor activation, 43 hyperglycaemia 44 and apoptosis. 45 Furthermore TKT, which is the key enzyme of the nonoxidative branch, has also been related to diabetic retinopathy 46 and Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome.…”
