The present study investigated whether oxidative stress plays a role in ischemia-reperfusion-induced changes in cardiac gene expression of Na(+)-K(+) ATPase isoforms. The levels of mRNA for Na(+)-K(+) ATPase isoforms were assessed in the isolated rat heart subjected to global ischemia (30 min) followed by reperfusion (60 min) in the presence or absence of superoxide dismutase (5 x 10(4)U/L) plus catalase (7.5 x 10(4)U/L), an antioxidant mixture. The levels of mRNA for the alpha(2), alpha(3), and beta(1) isoforms of Na(+)-K(+) ATPase were significantly reduced in the ischemia-reperfusion hearts, unlike the alpha(1) isoform. Pretreatment with superoxide dismutase+catalase preserved the ischemia-reperfusion-induced changes in alpha(2), alpha(3), and beta(1) isoform mRNA levels of the Na(+)-K(+) ATPase, whereas the alpha(1) mRNA levels were unaffected. In order to test if oxidative stress produced effects similar to those seen with ischemia-reperfusion, hearts were perfused with an oxidant, H(2)O(2) (300 microM), or a free radical generator, xanthine (2mM) plus xanthine oxidase (0.03 U/ml) for 20 min. Perfusion of hearts with H(2)O(2) or xanthine/xanthine oxidase depressed the alpha(2), alpha(3), and beta(1) isoform mRNA levels of the Na(+)-K(+) ATPase, but had lesser effects on alpha(1) mRNA levels. These results indicate that Na(+)-K(+) ATPase isoform gene expression is altered differentially in the ischemia-reperfusion hearts and that antioxidant treatment appears to attenuate these changes. It is suggested that alterations in Na(+)-K(+) ATPase isoform gene expression by ischemia-reperfusion may be mediated by oxidative stress.

D000254 Sodium-Potassium-Exchanging ATPase An enzyme that catalyzes the active transport system of sodium and potassium ions across the cell wall. Sodium and potassium ions are closely coupled with membrane ATPase which undergoes phosphorylation and dephosphorylation, thereby providing energy for transport of these ions against concentration gradients.

D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
