β-Adrenergic receptor stimulation induces endoplasmic reticulum stress in adult cardiac myocytes: role in apoptosis

Abstract: Accumulation of misfolded proteins and alterations in calcium homeostasis induces endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, leading to apoptosis. Here we tested the hypothesis that β-AR stimulation induces ER stress, and induction of ER stress plays a pro-apoptotic role in cardiac myocytes. Using thapsigargin and brefeldin A, we demonstrate that ER stress induces apoptosis in adult rat ventricular myocytes (ARVMs). β-AR-stimulation (isoproterenol; 3h) significantly increased expression of ER stress proteins such as G… Show more

“…In our model, we cannot exclude that IH could directly induce apoptosis independently of ER stress, through the classical extrinsic or intrinsic mitochondrial apoptotic pathways. In fact, sympathetic activation and oxidative stress, both activated by IH, can also induce myocardial apoptosis, subsequent to ER stress activation or in an ER stress-independent manner (13,15,33,58,63).…”

“…Even though we could measure a substantial decrease in Rhodopsin, the most abundant photoreceptor protein, in the treated BBS12-deperived photoreceptors, the maintained significant apoptotic activity indicated residual UPR activation. In an attempt to optimize our protective treatment, we tested a third pharmacological approach based on the UPR-specific Caspase12 inhibition (54,55). Used alone, the Caspase12 inhibitor INH was ϳ20% less efficient in preventing apoptosis than VPA or GBZ (Fig.…”

“…Salubrinal is a recently discovered selective inhibitor of the dephosphorylation of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2α (eIF2α) (Boyce et al, 2005). It protects against endoplasmic reticulum-activated cell apoptosis or cardiomyocyte apoptosis (Dalal et al, 2012). Therefore, salubrinal could work as a new drug candidate for treating cardiac toxicity.…”
