Previous studies have shown that stromal interaction molecule1 (STIM1)-mediated store-operated Ca entry (SOCE) contributes to intracellular Ca accumulation in H9C2 cells subjected to hypoxia/reoxygenation(H/R) injury. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of resveratrol on STIM1-mediated intracellular Ca accumulation and subsequent cell death in the context of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. C57 BL/6 mice were fed with either saline or resveratrol (50 mg/kg daily for 2 weeks) and then subjected to myocardial I/R injury. TTC/Evans Blue staining and TUNEL assay were performed to quantify the infarct size and apoptosis index. The cardiac function was evaluated by echocardiography. Neonatal rat ventricular cardiomyocytes (NRVCs) underwent hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) to establish the in vitro model. To achieve over-expression, NRVCs were transfected with STIM1-adenovirus vector. Apoptosis was analyzed by TUNEL assay. Cell viability was measured using MTS assay and cell necrosis was determined by LDH release assay. Intracellular Ca concentration was detected by laser scanning confocal microscopy using a Fluo-3AM probe. Resveratrol significantly reduced apoptosis, decreased infarct size, and improved cardiac function in mice subjected to myocardial I/R injury. In NRVCs, resveratrol also downregulated STIM1 expression accompanied by decreased intracellular Ca accumulation elicited by H/R injury. In addition, resveratrol reduced cell apoptosis, upregulated the Bcl-2, decreased Bax, and cleaved caspase-3 expression. Furthermore, the effects of resveratrol on STIM1-mediated intracellular Ca accumulation, apoptotic proteins, and H/R-induced cell injury were exacerbated by STIM1 over-expression and were partly abolished by SOCE inhibitor SKF96365 in NRVCs in vitro. Our findings demonstrate that resveratrol exerts anti-apoptotic activity and improves cardiac functional recovery following myocardial I/R by inhibiting STIM1-induced intracellular Ca accumulation.

The ubiquitin-26S proteasome system (UPS) is associated with protein stability and activity, regulation of hormone signaling, and the production of secondary metabolites in plants. Though the mechanism of action of SmMYB36 on the tanshinone and phenolic acid biosynthesis is well understood, its regulation through post-translational modifications is unclear. A constitutive photomorphogenesis 9 (COP9) signalosome subunit 5 (SmCSN5), which interacted with SmMYB36 and inhibited its ubiquitination-based degradation, was identified in .

Oxidative stress-induced photoreceptor cell death is closely associated with the etiology of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), and sodium iodate (SI) has been widely used as an oxidant stimulus in AMD models to induce retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and photoreceptor cell death. However, the mechanism underlying SI-induced photoreceptor cell death remains controversial and unclear. In this study, we elucidate that ferroptosis is a critical form of cell death induced by SI in photoreceptor-derived 661W cells.
