Ischemia/reperfusion ( I / R ) injury is a major consequence of a cardiovascular intervention. The study of changes of the left and right ventricle proteomes from hearts subjected to I / R may be a key to revealing the pathological mechanisms underlying I / R ‐induced heart contractile dysfunction.Isolated rat hearts were perfused under aerobic conditions or subjected to 25 min global ischemia and 30 min reperfusion. At the end of perfusion, right and left ventricular homogenates were analyzed by 2DE.Contractile function and coronary flow were significantly reduced by I / R . 2DE followed by mass spectrometry identified ten protein spots whose levels were significantly different between aerobic left and right ventricles, eight protein spots whose levels were different between aerobic and I / R left ventricle, ten protein spots whose levels were different between aerobic and I / R right ventricle ten protein spots whose levels were different between the I / R groups. Among these protein spots were ATP synthase beta subunit, myosin light chain 2, myosin heavy chain fragments, peroxiredoxin‐2, and heat shock proteins, previously associated with cardiovascular disease.These results reveal differences between proteomes of left and right ventricle both under aerobic conditions and in response to I / R that contribute to a better understanding of I / R injury.
