The function of RNase L and its degradation mechanism in cardiac acute ischemic injury

RNase L is generally thought to play a key role in antiviral defenses. Although RNase L protein and mRNA are known to be highly expressed in myocardial tissue, there are few studies of the potential functions of RNase L in myocardial tissue. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that RNase L may be involved in the pathological process of cardiac ischemic injury. RNase L-overexpressing and RNase L knockdown H9c2 cell lines were subjected to the...
