As regards acute myocardial infarction, great success has been achieved in therapies that reduce the effects of myocardial ischemic injury, while few interventions have achieved satisfactory outcomes for myocardial ischemia‑reperfusion (IR) injury. Thus, new research is urgently required to achieve breakthroughs in promising treatments. Neuregulin‑1 (NRG‑1), which is an endothelium‑derived protein and the ligand of ErbB receptors, exerts cardioprotective effects and is rapidly upregulated during IR. NRG‑1/ErbB activates several downstream signaling pathways in response to myocardial IR injury. Previous studies have revealed the protective effects of NRG‑1 during heart failure, and numerous experiments have explored the mechanisms underlying the NRG‑1‑induced cardioprotective effects against myocardial IR injury. In the present review, the progress made in the research of NRG‑1 as a cardioprotective agent during IR and related conditionings is summarized. Furthermore, the potential benefits of NRG‑1 against myocardial IR injury are listed with the prospective use of NRG‑1 in clinical applications.

D015398 Signal Transduction The intracellular transfer of information (biological activation/inhibition) through a signal pathway. In each signal transduction system, an activation/inhibition signal from a biologically active molecule (hormone, neurotransmitter) is mediated via the coupling of a receptor/enzyme to a second messenger system or to an ion channel. Signal transduction plays an important role in activating cellular functions, cell differentiation, and cell proliferation. Examples of signal transduction systems are the GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID-postsynaptic receptor-calcium ion channel system, the receptor-mediated T-cell activation pathway, and the receptor-mediated activation of phospholipases. Those coupled to membrane depolarization or intracellular release of calcium include the receptor-mediated activation of cytotoxic functions in granulocytes and the synaptic potentiation of protein kinase activation. Some signal transduction pathways may be part of larger signal transduction pathways; for example, protein kinase activation is part of the platelet activation signal pathway.
