| General Information | Comment | Organism |

| malfunction | streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice show upregulated expression of 12/15-LOX and inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB in diabetic hearts. Disruption of 12/15-LOX significantly improves STZ-induced cardiac dysfunction and fibrosis. Deletion of 12/15-LOX inhibits the increases of TNF-alpha and NF-kappaB as well as the production of STZ-induced reactive oxygen species in the heart. Administration of N-acetylcysteine in diabetic mice prevents STZ-induced cardiac fibrosis. Neonatal cultured cardiomyocytes exposed to high glucose conditions induce the expression of 12/15-LOX as well as TNF-alpha, NF-kappaB, and collagen markers. These increases are inhibited by treatment of the 12/15-LOX inhibitor. Disruption of 12/15-LOX reduces inflammation, oxidative stress, and fibrosis in the diabetic heart, thereby improving systolic dysfunction. Disruption of 12/15-LOX decreases cardiac inflammation induced by hyperglycemia | Mus musculus |
| metabolism | cardiac 12/15-LOX pathway induced by high glucose condition increases the expression of cardiac inflammation in vitro | Mus musculus |
| physiological function | cardiac 12/15-LOX-induced inflammation and oxidative stress are involved in the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy. 12/15-LOX induces cardiac oxidative stress in the diabetic heart | Mus musculus |
