We evaluated the direct effect of
hyperglycemia on apoptosis of adult rat ventricular myocytes (ARVM)
in vitro. Hyperglycemia (16.5 mM) for 24 h increased apoptosis
by greater than threefold (48.2 ± 4.4%, by the TdT-mediated dUTP
nick-end labeling method) compared with baseline (14.7 ± 2.5%).
Hyperosmolarity with mannitol (11.0 mM) in the presence of 5.5 mM
glucose also increased apoptosis by approximately twofold of
baseline. Both glucose and mannitol treatment resulted in the membrane
translocation of protein kinase C (PKC)-
, and the activation of
PKC-
was confirmed by immune complex kinase assay. PKC-
-specific
translocation inhibitor peptide (
V1-1) attenuated only apoptosis
induced by hyperglycemia but not by mannitol. A PKC-
-specific
translocation inhibitor peptide (
V1-1) affected neither type of
apoptosis. Moderate overexpression of PKC-
by adenovirus gene
transfer prevented the antiapoptotic effect of
V1-1. Furthermore,
V1-1 attenuated the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by
glucose. Taken together, our results indicate that increased ROS
production regulated by PKC-
is in part responsible for the
induction of apoptosis by hyperglycemia and that apoptosis by
hyperglycemia is mechanistically different from that by hyperosmolarity.
