A multiplex reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction assay was designed to measure manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) and CuZnSOD mRNAs in the left and right ventricles of rat hearts after myocardial infarction induced by occlusion of the left coronary artery. These data were compared with changes in enzymatic activities. In the left ventricle, Mn-SOD RNA increased significantly at 6 hours, peaked at 12 hours (490 +/- 38 arbitrary units), and progressively decreased (127 +/- 21 arbitrary units at 48 hours). In contrast, there was a steady accumulation of transcripts in the right ventricle up to 48 hours. In both ventricles, the changes in the MnSOD mRNA and protein content were not associated with proportional variations in enzymatic activity. There was no characteristic alteration of the CuZnSOD system in either ventricle over the 48-hour period. These results demonstrate that infarction selectively activates the MnSOD gene in the viable myocardium of both ventricles. They suggest that MnSOD may be involved in the adaptive response of myocytes to the overloading stress.
