Abstract
Our study aimed to detect the effects of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) on exacerbating cardiomyocyte hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury and the possible mechanism. A cell model of H/R was constructed. PCSK9 mRNA and protein levels were significantly upregulated during AC16 cardiomyocyte H/R. Flowmetry detection of apoptosis, as well as JC-1, confirmed that PCSK9 upregulation of autophagy levels was accompanied by apoptosis. Furthermore, in the H/R+si-PCSK9 group, the expression of autophagy-related protein LC3 decreased and P62 increased. At the same time, the presentation of the autophagic pathway Pink1/Parkin was also downregulated. In conclusion, in AC16 cardiomyocytes treated with H/R, PCSK9 expression and autophagy levels were increased; a possible molecular mechanism was the activation of the Pink1/Parkin pathway.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
