TLR4 mutation and HSP60-induced cell death in adult mouse cardiac myocytes

Abstract: Extracellular (ex) HSP60 is increasingly recognized as an agent of cell injury. Previously, we reported that low endotoxin exHSP60 causes cardiac myocyte apoptosis. Our findings supported a role for Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 in HSP60 mediated apoptosis. To further investigate the involvement of TLR4 in cardiac injury, we studied adult cardiac myocytes from C3H/HeJ (HeJ) mice, which have a mutant, nonfunctional TLR4, and compared the results with parallel studies using wild-type (WT) mice. Nuclear factor κB (N… Show more

“…Data obtained in every field were added together to make a final data count for each slide and expressed as percentage of total cell number within the relevant fields. For in vitro cell death assessment, cell culture medium (for necrosis) and cell lysate (for apoptosis) were assayed using the Cell Death Detection ELISA PLUS per manufacturer’s protocol to measure cytoplasmic histone-associated DND fragments (momo- and oligonucleosomes) as previously described ( 30 ).…”

“…Studies show that blocking the apoptotic pathway may exert a protective effect against MIRI [5,6]. More recent studies have further characterized this relationship by identifying the receptor-mediated signaling and transduction pathways involved, including pathways involving toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) [6,7]. A better molecular understanding of these apoptotic properties is a key in understanding MIRI damage and future treatment.…”

“…HSP60 can be released into the extracellular space including serum by various cell types [43]. Extracellular HSP60, even at low concentration, causes cardiac myocyte apoptosis and necrosis [44]. The higher mean plasma levels of HSP60 are closely associated with clinically manifest cardiovascular diseases in the patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes [45].…”
