Résumé

Ceramides are important intermediates in the biosynthesis and degradation of sphingolipids that regulate numerous cellular processes, including cell cycle progression, cell growth, differentiation and death. In cardiomyocytes, ceramides induce apoptosis by decreasing mitochondrial membrane potential and promoting cytochrome-c release. Ca²⁺ overload is a common feature of all types of cell death. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of ceramides on cytoplasmic Ca²⁺ levels, mitochondrial function and cardiomyocyte death. Our data show that C₂-ceramide induces apoptosis and necrosis in cultured cardiomyocytes by a mechanism involving increased Ca²⁺ influx, mitochondrial network fragmentation and loss of the mitochondrial Ca²⁺ buffer capacity. These biochemical events increase cytosolic Ca²⁺ levels and trigger cardiomyocyte death via the activation of calpains.
