BackgroundInterleukin (IL)-6 is
elevated in myocardium after ischemia and
reperfusion. The IL-6 promoter/enhancer region contains response
elements for nuclear factor-
B, AP-1, and CCAAT/enhancer binding
protein (C/EBP). Expression and regulation of C/EBP in rat
myocardium after ischemia and reperfusion has not
been defined, nor has the behavior of the specific IL-6 receptor
(IL-6R) or the signal transducer gp130.
Methods and ResultsC/EBP DNA binding activity was not
detected in shams or in previously ischemic tissue at 15
minutes of reperfusion; it was detected at 30 minutes of reperfusion,
increased at 1 hour of reperfusion, and declined by 6 hours of
reperfusion. A supershift was observed with antiC/EBP-ß but not
with anti-
or anti-
antibodies. mRNA and protein levels of IL-6
and gp130 were detected at low levels in controls, increased at 1 hour
of reperfusion, and remained high until 6 hours of reperfusion. IL-6R
mRNA and protein were not detected in controls, but its mRNA was
induced at 1 hour of reperfusion and its protein at 2 hours of
reperfusion. Although effects of reperfusion were rapid, in
ischemic tissue not reperfused, low levels of C/EBP were
detected at 4 hours, and at 24 hours the levels were slightly elevated.
Significant upregulation in IL-6, IL-6R, and gp130 occurred only at 24
hours of sustained ischemia.
ConclusionsReperfusion after a brief period of ischemia caused induction of myocardial C/EBP (ß-subunit). The rapid and sustained production of IL-6 with concomitant expression of IL-6 receptor and gp130 suggest that these factors may participate in a local inflammatory cascade after myocardial ischemia and reperfusion.
