This study examined the effects of either Ikappa Balpha overexpression (transgenic mice) or N-acetyl-leucinyl-leucinyl-norleucinal (ALLN) administration (proteosome inhibitor in wild-type mice) on cardiomyocyte secretion of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha ) and on cardiac performance after burn trauma. Transgenic mice were divided into four experimental groups. Ikappa Balpha overexpressing mice were given a third-degree scald burn over 40% of the total body surface area or wild-type littermates were given either a scald or sham burn to provide appropriate controls. Pharmacological studies included ALLN (20 mg/kg) administration in either burned wild-type mice or wild-type shams. Burn trauma in wild-type mice promoted nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappa B) nuclear translocation, cardiomyocyte secretion of TNF-alpha , and impaired cardiac performance. Ikappa Balpha overexpression or ALLN treatment of burn trauma prevented NF-kappa B activation in cardiac tissue, prevented cardiomyocyte secretion of TNF-alpha , and ablated burn-mediated cardiac contractile dysfunction. These data suggest that NF-kappa B activation and inflammatory cytokine secretion play a significant role in postburn myocardial abnormalities.
