Glycoprotein 130 Regulates Cardiac Myocyte Survival in Doxorubicin-Induced Apoptosis Through Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase/Akt Phosphorylation and Bcl-xL/Caspase-3 Interaction

Abstract

Activation of gp130 inhibits DOX-induced cell death in cardiac myocytes, resulting in the restoration of PI 3-kinase/Akt activities and in the inactivation of caspase-3, leading to facilitation of the protective function of Bcl-xL.
