| Abstract | Accumulation of misfolded proteins and alterations in calcium homeostasis induces endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, leading to apoptosis. In this study, 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 GRP-78, Gadd-153, and Gadd-34, while activating caspase-12 in ARVMs. In most parts, these effects were mimicked by thapsigargin. β-AR stimulation for 15 min increased PERK and eIF-2α phosphorylation. PERK phosphorylation remained higher, while eIF-2α phosphorylation declined thereafter, reaching to ~50% below basal levels at 3 h after β-AR stimulation. This decline in eIF-2α phosphorylation was prevented by β1-AR, not by β2-AR antagonist. Forskolin, adenylyl cyclase activator, simulated the effects of ISO on eIF-2α phosphorylation. Salubrinal (SAL), an ER stress inhibitor, maintained eIF-2α phosphorylation and inhibited β-AR-stimulated apoptosis. Furthermore, inhibition of caspase-12 using z-ATAD inhibited β-AR-stimulated and thapsigargin-induced apoptosis. In vivo, β-AR stimulation induced ER stress in the mouse heart as evidenced by increased expression of GRP-78 and Gadd-153, activation of caspase-12, and dephosphorylation of eIF-2α. SAL maintained phosphorylation of eIF-2α, inhibited activation of caspase-12, and decreased β-AR-stimulated apoptosis in the heart. Thus, β-AR stimulation induces ER stress in cardiac myocytes and in the heart, and induction of ER stress plays a pro-apoptotic role. |

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.
