Abstract

In experiments on the primary culture of isolated neonatal rat cardiomyocytes it was determined that cardiomyocytes express ALOX5 gene encoding enzyme 5-lipoxygenase. Anoxia-reoxygenation does not affect significantly the expression of 5-lipoxygenase mRNA in cardiomyocytes. Transfection of 5-lipoxygenase-specific small interfering RNA’s (siRNA) into cardiomyocytes lead to a significant reduction of 5-lipoxygenase mRNA expression in cardiomyocytes 24 hours after transfec-tion. ALOX5 gene silencing resulted in improved viability of cell population (by 13,3 % P<0,001) due to decreased number of necrotic (by 14,6 %, P<0,001), but not apoptotic, cells during anoxia-reoxygenation. Our results indicate that siRNA against ALOX5 effectively protects cardiomyocytes against anoxia-reoxygenation injury.

Keywords: Anoxia-reoxygenation, cardiomyocytes, 5-lipoxygenase mRNA
