BACKGROUND: PolyADPribose polymerase (PARP) is activated by DNA strand breaks to catalyze the addition of ADPribose groups to nuclear proteins, especially PARP-1. Excessive polyADPribosylation leads to cell death through depletion of NAD+ and ATP. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In vivo PARP activation in heart tissue slices was assayed through conversion of [33P]NAD+ into polyADPribose (PAR) following ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) and also monitored by immunohistochemical staining for PAR. Cardiac contractility, nitric oxide (NO), reactive oxygen species (ROS), NAD+ and ATP levels were examined in wild type (WT) and in PARP-1 gene-deleted (PARP-1(-/-)) isolated, perfused mouse hearts. Myocardial infarct size was assessed following coronary artery occlusion in rats treated with PARP inhibitors. RESULTS: Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) augmented formation of nitric oxide, oxygen free radicals and PARP activity. I/R induced decreases in cardiac contractility and NAD+ levels were attenuated in PARP-1(-/-) mouse hearts. PARP inhibitors reduced myocardial infarct size in rats. Residual polyADPribosylation in PARP-1(-/-) hearts may reflect alternative forms of PARP. CONCLUSIONS: PolyADPribosylation from PARP-1 and other sources of enzymatic PAR synthesis is associated with cardiac damage following myocardial ischemia. PARP inhibitors may have therapeutic utility in myocardial disease.
