Figure 7. Ube2s/β-catenin/HIF-1α axis protects against MI/R injury. Graphic description of this study. Ube2s promotes HIF-1α activation through stabilizing β-catenin via a mechanism of ubiquitination modification, whereby acting to protect against MI/R injury, including reducing myocardial apoptosis, infarction and CPK release.
