Excessive intake of Alcohol is associated with a high incidence of alcoholic cardiomyopathy (ACM), which may impair cardiac function. In our study, we explored the Abhydrolase Domain Containing 5 (ABHD5) mechanism in ACM about histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) and CaM-CaMKII/MEF2 signaling pathway. Rat models of ACM were established in Wistar rats, and in vitro cell models were constructed in rat cardiomyocytes H9C2 utilizing 12-h of treatment of Alcohol (200 mM) to study the regulatory role of ABHD5 in ACM with the involvement of HDAC4 and CaM-CaMKII/MEF2 signaling pathway, as evidenced by determination of cardiac function, myocardial fibrosis, apoptosis of cardiomyocytes and oxidative stress condition.
