LOX-1 can also be expressed in other cell types, and the activation of the LOX-1 pathway has been implicated in apoptosis. There have been no reports, however, about LOX-1 expression in cardiac myocytes or regulation of myocardial cell apoptosis by LOX-1.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold><jats:italic><jats:bold><jats:italic>Methods and Results<\/jats:italic>\u2014<\/jats:bold><\/jats:italic><\/jats:bold>In primary cardiac myocytes from neonatal rats, immunohistochemical analyses using a specific monoclonal antibody against LOX-1 demonstrated that LOX-1 expression was markedly induced by stimulation with norepinephrine and endothelin-1. LOX-1 expression was upregulated in cardiac myocytes as well as in vessel walls of failing rat hearts in vivo. In the presence of a low concentration of oxidized LDL that did not induce apoptosis by itself, artificial overexpression of LOX-1 in cardiac myocytes in culture resulted in apoptosis. LOX-1 overexpression induced activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and oxidative stress in cardiac myocytes, as demonstrated by an increase in positive immunostaining for 8-hydroxy-2\u2032-deoxyguanosine. Inhibition of p38 MAPK by cotransfection of a dominant-negative form of MKK6 as well as by administration of a specific inhibitor, SB203580 or FR167653, almost completely blocked the induction of apoptosis by LOX-1 activation. Antioxidant catalase also blocked LOX-1-induced apoptosis as well as activation of p38 MAPK.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold><jats:italic><jats:bold><jats:italic>Conclusions<\/jats:italic>\u2014<\/jats:bold><\/jats:italic><\/jats:bold>These findings demonstrate that LOX-1 expression in cardiac myocytes is induced by neurohormonal factors activated in heart failure and that LOX-1-dependent apoptosis in these cells requires p38 MAPK, a component of oxidant stress-sensitive signaling
