Recently, they are examined various means for activating the endogenous signalling pathways leading to increased resistance of the myocardium from ischemic/reperfusion (I/R) injury. One of them is the adaptation to chronic hypoxia, which has been shown to reduce the incidence and severity of ventricular arrhythmias, improves the recovery of postischemic contractile function of the heart and particularly reduces the extent of myocardial infarction. Since the function of the heart depends on the maintenance of membrane integrity of cardiomyocytes there are very important phospholipase A2 (PLA2) which are involved in the repair of cellular membranes. Also they are an important component of the protective signalling pathways because they cleave membrane phospholipids to produce lipid signalling molecules. Elucidate the role of PLA2 and the precise mechanism of action of signalling pathways leading to cardioprotection could be important for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, in this thesis we examined the influence of continuous normobaric hypoxia (CNH) to the relative representation of cardiac PLA2 (secretory - sPLA2IIA, calcium-independent - iPLA2, cytosolic - cPLA2α and its phosphorylated form - p-cPLA2α), and proteins involved in the activation and phosphorylation of...
