| Abstract | We previously reported that hydrogen sulfide (H2S) preconditioning (SP) produces cardioprotective effects against ischemia in rat cardiac myocytes. The present study aims to elucidate the signaling mechanisms involved in SP-induced cardioprotection by investigating the role of extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK1/2) and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt. We found that preconditioning with NaHS (a H2S donor) for three cycles significantly decreased myocardial infarct size and improved heart contractile function in the isolated rat hearts. NaHS (1–100 μM) concentration-dependently increased cell viability and percentage of rod-shaped cardiac myocytes. Blockade of ERK1/2 with PD 98059 or PI3K/Akt with LY-294002 or Akt inhibitor III during either preconditioning or ischemia periods significantly attenuated the cardioprotection of SP, suggesting that both ERK1/2 and PI3K/Akt triggered and mediated the cardioprotection of SP. Moreover, SP induced ERK1/2 and Akt phosphorylation in isolated hearts. The phosphorylation of ERK1/2 induced by SP was attenuated by either glibenclamide, an ATP-sensitive K+ channel (KATP) blocker, or chelerythrine, a specific protein kinase C (PKC) blocker. In addition, ischemic-preconditioning-induced ERK1/2 activation was reversed by inhibiting endogenous H2S production, suggesting that ERK1/2 activation induced by ischemic preconditioning was, at least partly, mediated by endogenous H2S. In conclusion, KATP/PKC/ERK1/2 and PI3K/Akt pathways contributed to SP-induced cardioprotection. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
