NF- B activation is required for adaptive cardiac hypertrophy

Abstract: NF-kappaB inhibition attenuates cardiac hypertrophy in a gender-specific manner but does not alter the course of stress-induced LV remodelling, indicating NF-kappaB to be required for adaptive cardiac hypertrophy.

“…NF-B has been implicated in cardiac hypertrophy, and the best evidence is from a transgenic mouse model with cardiac-specific expression of a mutant IB␣ that acts as a super-repressor of NF-B (30, 31). The expression of this mutant attenuated hypertrophic phenotypes induced by angiotensin II or isoproterenol infusion as well as aortic banding (34,35). The fetal gene program was also abrogated in this model and therefore, irrespective of whether these two molecules can interact at the protein level in the cytoplasm (14 -17), NF-B and GRK5 activity in the heart may lead to inter-related or parallel hypertrophic gene transcriptional paths.…”

“…Previous studies have established that NF-κB is required for cardiac hypertrophy, but is dispensable for normal heart structure and function (8,10,11,27). Our finding that activation of IKK/NF-κB in the heart primarily induces cardiomyocyte atrophy rather than hypertrophy is not necessarily a contradiction to these studies, as the biological function of IKK/NF-κB may depend on the strength of activation and/or on context, and on the component of the IKK/NF-κB system that is manipulated.…”

“…The function of IKK/NF-κB during ischemia/reperfusion injury, myocardial infarction, and subsequent remodeling processes is controversial (1,2). As to myocyte growth, IKK/NF-κB activation in vivo is required for certain forms of hypertrophy (8)(9)(10)(11), but not for others (6,7).…”
