Preload induces troponin I degradation independently of myocardial ischemia
Although global ischemia induces troponin I (TnI) degradation, regional ischemia does not. We hypothesized that this disparity is related to preload-induced proteolysis, which varies as a function of the amount of myocardium at risk of ischemia. Isolated rat hearts were buffer-perfused at controlled...

Zusammenfassung: | Although global ischemia induces troponin I (TnI) degradation, regional ischemia does not. We hypothesized that this disparity is related to preload-induced proteolysis, which varies as a function of the amount of myocardium at risk of ischemia.
Isolated rat hearts were buffer-perfused at controlled levels of preload. Increasing preload to 25 mm Hg in the absence of ischemia produced pronounced TnI degradation (27 kDa versus 31 kDa bands: 16.4 +/- 3.6% versus 4.7 +/- 1.9% in immediately excised controls, P |
