Role of p90 Ribosomal S6 Kinase–Mediated Prorenin-Converting Enzyme in Ischemic and Diabetic Myocardium

Abstract: Background-Epidemiological data strongly indicate that diabetes increases the incidence of heart failure. Although the benefit of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACE-I) treatment during and after myocardial infarction has been found to be greater in diabetics than nondiabetics and activation of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has been implicated, the molecular basis of these actions remains unclear. Methods and Results-We generated transgenic mice with cardiac-specific overexpression of wild-type p… Show more

“…However, it remains unclear how prorenin was activated to renin in cardiac myocytes. Recently, the expression of kallikrein-like proreninconverting enzyme (PRECE) was shown to be increased in ischemic and diabetic myocardium and to contribute to the activation of the RAS in these conditions (28). Although the types of cardiac cells that express PRECE and the cellular localization were not determined in that study, the involvement of PRECE in our studies is possible.…”

“…Diabetes mellitus (DM) was induced in male FVB mice (5 to 8 weeks old and 25 to 35 g body weight, The Jackson Laboratory, Bar Harbor, ME) by intraperitoneal injection of STZ (200 mg/kg body weight). 10,11 Tail vein blood glucose samples were measured 6 days after injection to ensure induction of hyperglycemia. As a control, vehicle (0.1 mol/L citrate buffer, pH 4.5) was injected in another group of mice.…”

“…In view of the proposed involvement of NHE1 activity in the pathogenesis of cardiac ischemic injury (12) and remodeling (13), such findings have led to the consideration of RSK as a potential therapeutic target for cardiac protection (14). Nevertheless, only limited information is available on other RSK substrates and functions in the heart, which may include roles in the phosphorylation of the inhibitory subunit of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) (15), the induction of prorenin-converting enzyme in ischemic and diabetic myocardium (16) of cardiac repolarization in response to reactive oxygen species (17).…”
