Description

Application of ATF7 gene in preparing heart disease diagnosis product and medicine
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of biological medicines, and particularly relates to application of an ATF7 gene in preparing a heart disease diagnosis product and a medicine.
Background
The heart is a dynamic source of human blood transport, which transports blood to various parts of the body, providing oxygen and nutrition to other organs and tissues, and is one of the most important organs of the human body. However, with unhealthy dietary structure and lifestyle, and increased aging, the incidence and mortality of cardiovascular disease increases year by year, and a younger situation is presented with cardiovascular disease mortality that is far higher than other common diseases.
Death of cardiomyocytes is the pathological basis of numerous heart diseases, while cell necrosis is one of the major forms of cell death. Necrosis has long been considered a passive way of cell death due to pathological causes such as physical or chemical injury, hypoxia and malnutrition. However, in recent years, it has been found that, unlike conventional cognitive necrosis, there is a new cell necrosis method, which is also called as programmed necrosis or necrosis. Unlike apoptosis and pyro-apoptosis, programmed necrosis is similar to traditional necrosis, such as plasma membrane rupture, causing an inflammatory response. The production and accumulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines, the destruction of biological membranes, and the release of intracellular injury-related molecules are closely related to the development and progression of the events. Programmed necrosis is regulated by a complex network of cell signals. Current studies indicate that RIPK1 and RIPK3 can phosphorylate each other to form a dead body under tnfα induction. RIPK1 and RIPK3 are phosphorylated to obtain kinase activity, mixed lineage kinase domain like proteins (MLKL) are phosphorylated to obtain activity, further mediating cell necrosis. Meanwhile, necrosis is associated with ischemic injury and neurodegenerative diseases, and has become a hot spot for research on cell death in recent years. Cell death plays an extremely important role in normal development of embryos, maintaining normal physiological functions of cell populations and malignant lesions, and ensuring repair in the healthy survival process of multicellular organisms. However, the current research on the signal pathway of cardiomyocyte death is far from deep enough.
ATF7 is one of the members of the ATF2 transcription factor subfamily, belonging to the ATF/CREB protein superfamily. These proteins are characterized by the presence of a B-Zip DNA binding domain. ATF/CREB plays an important role in energy metabolism and cell growth, while the function of the ATF7 gene in heart tissue is not yet known.
At present, the pathogenesis of heart diseases is not completely clear, and the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of heart diseases cannot achieve satisfactory effects, so that development of new technical methods for diagnosis and prevention of heart diseases is urgently needed. The key factors targeted to heart diseases have wide prospects in clinical application, and can also provide a new thought for treating heart diseases.
The present invention has been made in view of the present circumstances.
