Acute myocardial infarction is characterized by ischaemia-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis, in which the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress plays an important role. The fatty acid-binding protein-4 (FABP4) has been implicated in regulating ER stress and apoptosis. Yet, whether FABP4 is involved in modulating cardiomyocyte apoptosis remains unclarified. By applying an in vitro model of hypoxia-induced apoptosis of H9c2 cardiomyocytes, we found that FABP4 expression was elevated upon hypoxia stimulation, which was further demonstrated to
