Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:2395. [PMID: 33673646 PMCID: PMC7957595 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22052395] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2021] [Revised: 02/15/2021] [Accepted: 02/24/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Cardiac preconditioning (PC) and postconditioning (PoC) are powerful measures against the consequences of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) injury. Mannitol-a hyperosmolar solution-is clinically used for treatment of intracranial and intraocular pressure or promotion of diuresis in renal failure. Next to these clinical indications, different organ-protective properties-e.g., perioperative neuroprotection-are described. However, whether Mannitol also confers cardioprotection via a pre- and/or postconditioning stimulus, possibly reducing consequences of I/R injury, remains to be seen. Therefore, in the present study we investigated whether (1) Mannitol-induced pre- and/or postconditioning induces myocardial infarct size reduction and (2) activation of mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium (mKATP) channels is involved in cardioprotection by Mannitol. Experiments were performed on isolated hearts of male Wistar rats via a pressure controlled Langendorff system, randomized into 7 groups. Each heart underwent 33 min of global ischemia and 60 min of reperfusion. Control hearts (Con) received Krebs-Henseleit buffer as vehicle only. Pre- and postconditioning was achieved by administration of 11 mmol/L Mannitol for 10 min before ischemia (Man-PC) or immediately at the onset of reperfusion (Man-PoC), respectively. In further groups, the mKATP channel blocker 5HD, was applied with and without Mannitol, to determine the potential underlying cardioprotective mechanisms. Primary endpoint was infarct size, determined by triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining. Mannitol significantly reduced infarct size both as a pre- (Man-PC) and postconditioning (Man-PoC) stimulus compared to control hearts (Man-PC: 31 ± 4%; Man-PoC: 35 ± 6%, each p < 0.05 vs. Con: 57 ± 9%). The mKATP channel inhibitor completely abrogated the cardioprotective effect of Mannitol-induced pre- (5HD-PC-Man-PC: 59 ± 8%, p < 0.05 vs. Man-PC) and postconditioning (5HD-PoC-Man-PoC: 59 ± 10% vs. p < 0.05 Man-PoC). Infarct size was not influenced by 5HD itself (5HD-PC: 60 ± 14%; 5HD-PoC: 54 ± 14%, each ns vs. Con). This study demonstrates that Mannitol (1) induces myocardial pre- and postconditioning and (2) confers cardioprotection via activation of mKATP channels.

Abstract
Ischemic heart disease (IHD) is the primary cause of death globally. IHD is associated with the disruption of blood supply to the heart muscles, which often results in myocardial infarction (MI) that further may progress to heart failure (HF). Exosomes are a subgroup of extracellular vesicles that can be secreted by virtually all types of cells, including cardiomyocytes, cardiac fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and stem and progenitor cells. Exosomes represent an important means of cell–cell communication through the transport of proteins, coding and non-coding RNA, and other bioactive molecules. Several studies show that exosomes play an important role in the progression of IHD, including endothelial dysfunction, the development of arterial atherosclerosis, ischemic reperfusion injury, and HF development. Recently, promising data have been shown that designates exosomes as carriers of cardioprotective molecules that enhance the survival of recipient cells undergoing ischemia. In this review, we summarize the functional involvement of exosomes regarding IHD. We also highlight the cardioprotective effects of native and bioengineered exosomes to IHD, as well as the possibility of using exosomes as natural biomarkers of cardiovascular diseases. Lastly, we discuss the opportunities and challenges that need to be addressed before exosomes can be used in clinical applications.

Cardiac hypoxic resistance and decreasing lactate during maximum apnea in elite breath hold divers. Sci Rep 2021; 11:2545.

Abstract
Breath-hold divers (BHD) enduring apnea for more than 4 min are characterized by resistance to release of reactive oxygen species, reduced sensitivity to hypoxia, and low mitochondrial oxygen consumption in their skeletal muscles similar to northern elephant seals. The muscles and myocardium of harbor seals also exhibit metabolic adaptations including increased cardiac lactate-dehydrogenase-activity, exceeding their hypoxic limit. We hypothesized that the myocardium of BHD possesses similar adaptive mechanisms. During maximum apnea 15O-H2O-PET/CT (n = 6) revealed no myocardial perfusion deficits but increased myocardial blood flow (MBF). Cardiac MRI determined blood oxygen level dependence oxygenation (n = 8) after 4 min of apnea was unaltered compared to rest, whereas cine-MRI demonstrated increased left ventricular wall thickness (LVWT). Arterial blood gases were collected after warm-up and maximum apnea in a pool. At the end of the maximum pool apnea (5 min), arterial saturation decreased to 52%, and lactate decreased 20%. Our findings contrast with previous MR studies of BHD, that reported elevated cardiac troponins and decreased myocardial perfusion after 4 min of apnea. In conclusion, we demonstrated for the first time with 15O-H2O-PET/CT and MRI in elite BHD during maximum apnea, that MBF and LVWT increases while lactate decreases, indicating anaerobic/fat-based cardiac-metabolism similar to diving mammals.

The Protective Effect of Cx43 Protein-Mediated Phosphocreatine on Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury. Cardiol Res Pract 2021; 2021:8838151. [PMID: 33552599 PMCID: PMC7847337 DOI: 10.1155/2021/8838151] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2020] [Revised: 12/18/2020] [Accepted: 01/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives To verify the protective effect of phosphocreatine on myocardium in an ischemic model and the possible mechanism of action. Methods The model of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) was established by the ligation balloon method. 30 SD rats were randomly divided into three groups, n = 10 in each group. Sham operation group: the coronary artery was not blocked and observed for 120 minutes. The ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) group was given ischemia for 30 minutes and ischemia reperfusion for 90 minutes. Phosphocreatine (PCr) group: after 30 minutes of ischemia, the rats were intraperitoneally injected with PCr (200 mg/kg) for 90 minutes. The animal groups of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion model in vitro were the same as those in vivo. The heart was removed by thoracotomy and washed immediately in H-K buffer solution. Then, the heart was installed on the Langendorff instrument. The concentration of PCr perfusion fluid in the PCr group was 10 mmol/L. The changes in coronary blood flow in isolated myocardium were recorded. The heart rate and electrocardiogram were recorded by RM6240BT. At the end of the experiment, myocardial pathological sections and Cx43 immunofluorescence staining were made, and the contents of malondialdehyde (MDA) in myocardial tissue were detected. Results Phosphocreatinine treatment improved the myocardial ischemia model, performance in electrocardiogram (ECG) changes (ST segment apparent), and histological changes (decrease in necrotic myocardial cells, inflammatory cell infiltration, and a reduction in myocardial edema). At the same time, MDA decreased, while coronary blood flow and Cx43 expression significantly improved. Conclusions Phosphocreatine can improve the electrocardiogram and restore histologic changes in ischemic myocardium and coronary blood flow. The postulated mechanism is by inhibiting the generation of free oxygen radicals and restoring the expression of Cx43 protein.

Abstract
Hintergrund Ziel der perioperativen Kardioprotektion ist es, die Auswirkungen eines Ischämie- und Reperfusionsschadens zu minimieren. Aus anästhesiologischer Sicht spielt dieser Aspekt insbesondere in der Herzchirurgie bei Patienten mit Einsatz der Herz-Lungen-Maschine, aber auch allgemein bei längerfristigen hypotensiven Phasen oder perioperativen ischämischen Ereignissen im nichtkardiochirurgischen Setting eine wichtige Rolle. Im Laufe der letzten Jahre konnten diverse pharmakologische sowie nichtpharmakologische Strategien der Kardioprotektion identifiziert werden. Die Ergebnisse von Studien an isoliertem Gewebe sowie von tierexperimentellen In-vivo-Studien sind vielversprechend. Eine Translation dieser kardioprotektiven Strategien in die klinische Praxis ist bislang jedoch nicht gelungen. Große klinische Studien konnten keine signifikante Verbesserung des Outcome der Patienten zeigen. Ziel der Arbeit Dieser Übersichtsartikel gibt einen Überblick über die aktuelle experimentelle Evidenz pharmakologischer und nichtpharmakologischer Kardioprotektion. Außerdem sollen mögliche Gründe für die limitierte Translation diskutiert werden. Schließlich werden Möglichkeiten aufgezeigt, wie der Schritt „from bench to bedside“ in Zukunft doch noch gelingen könnte. Material und Methoden Narrative Übersichtsarbeit. Ergebnisse und Diskussion Trotz der vielversprechenden präklinischen experimentellen Ansätze zum Thema Kardioprotektion besteht nach wie vor eine große Diskrepanz zu den Ergebnissen aus großen klinischen Studien in der perioperativen Phase. Mögliche Gründe für die limitierte Translation könnten insbesondere Komorbiditäten und Komedikationen, die Wahl des Anästhesieverfahrens, aber auch die Wahl des Studiendesigns sein. Eine sorgfältige Studienplanung mit Berücksichtigung der genannten Probleme sowie ein simultaner Einsatz mehrerer kardioprotektiver Strategien mit dem Ziel eines additiven bzw. synergistischen Effekts stellen mögliche Ansätze für die Zukunft dar.

Abstract
Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury has been found to be associated with oxidative stress. Plantamajoside (PMS) is a major compound of Plantago asiatica that was reported to possess cardioprotective and antioxidant effects. The current study was designed to investigate the effect of PMS on myocardial I/R injury. Rat cardiomyocytes H9c2 cells were exposed to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) to establish in vitro model of myocardial I/R injury. MTT assay proved that H9c2 cells viability was significant reduced under H/R treatment, while the reduction was ameliorated by PMS. H/R-induced ROS production in H9c2 cells was suppressed by PMS. The decreased activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) in the H/R group were effectively elevated by PMS. In addition, treatment with PMS attenuated H/R-stimulated production of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β in H9c2 cells. Besides, PMS significantly suppressed bax expression and caspase 3 activity, as well as increased bcl-2 expression in H/R-stimulated H9c2 cells. Furthermore, we also found that PMS significantly enhanced the activation of Akt/Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway and suppressed the activation of NF-κB signaling pathway in H/R-stimulated H9c2 cells. These results provided substantial evidence that PMS protected against myocardial I/R injury via attenuating oxidative stress, inflammatory response and apoptosis. The protective effects of PMS were attributed to the Akt/Nrf2/HO-1 and NF-κB signaling pathways.

Abstract
Cardioprotection encompasses a variety of strategies protecting the heart against myocardial injury that occurs during and after inadequate blood supply to the heart during myocardial infarction. While restoring reperfusion is crucial for salvaging myocardium from further damage, paradoxically, it itself accounts for additional cell death-a phenomenon named ischemia/reperfusion injury. Therefore, therapeutic strategies are necessary to render the heart protected against myocardial infarction. Ischemic pre- and postconditioning, by short periods of sublethal cardiac ischemia and reperfusion, are still the strongest mechanisms to achieve cardioprotection. However, it is highly impractical and far too invasive for clinical use. Fortunately, it can be mimicked pharmacologically, for example, by volatile anesthetics, noble gases, opioids, propofol, dexmedetomidine, and phosphodiesterase inhibitors. These substances are all routinely used in the clinical setting and seem promising candidates for successful translation of cardioprotection from experimental protocols to clinical trials. This review presents the fundamental mechanisms of conditioning strategies and provides an overview of the most recent and relevant findings on different concepts achieving cardioprotection in the experimental setting, specifically emphasizing pharmacological approaches in the perioperative context.

Abstract
As the incidence of ischemia-reperfusion (I-R) injury has substantially increased, there is a pressing need to develop effective strategies to treat this global health issue. I-R injury can affect all organs and is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. Pathological settings such as myocardial infarction, stroke, hemorrhagic shock, and solid organ transplant are particularly prone to cause I-R injury. Ischemia (hypoxia) and/or reperfusion (reoxygenation) induces various forms of cellular and structural damage. A major cause of damage is local inflammatory responses, which may spread to produce more advanced systemic inflammation. Management of I-R injury relies primarily on supportive measures, as specific treatment strategies are lacking. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are cell-secreted nano-scale structures containing various biomolecules involved in cell communication and multiple physiological processes. EVs derived from certain cell types have been shown to exhibit anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and angiogenic properties. This review provides an overview of EV-based therapeutics for I-R injury in kidneys, liver, heart, lungs, and brain. Additionally, the mechanisms by which EVs protect against I-R injury are discussed. Promising preclinical findings highlight the potential clinical use of EVs for I-R injury.

Abstract
Since the discovery of ischemic pre- and post-conditioning, more than 30 years ago, the knowledge about the mechanisms and signaling pathways involved in these processes has significantly increased. In clinical practice, on the other hand, such advancement has yet to be seen. This article provides an overview of ischemic pre-, post-, remote, and pharmacological conditioning related to the heart. In addition, we reviewed the cardioprotective signaling pathways and therapeutic agents involved in the above-mentioned processes, aiming to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the advancements in the field. The advancements made over the last decades cannot be ignored and with the exponential growth in techniques and applications. The future of pre- and post-conditioning is promising.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Over the years, the roles of microRNAs (miRNAs) and histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) in human diseases have been investigated. This study focused on the effect of miR-19a-3p and HDAC3 in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury (MIRI) by targeting cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2). METHODS The I/R rat models were established by coronary artery ligation, which were then treated with RGFP966 (an inhibitor of HDAC3), miR-19a-3p agomir or antagomir, or silenced CDK2 to explore their roles in the cardiac function, pathological changes of myocardial tissues, myocardial infarction area, inflammatory factors and oxidative stress factors in rats with MIRI. The expression of miR-19a-3p, HDAC3, and CDK2 was determined by RT-qPCR and western blot assay, and the interaction among which was also verified by online prediction, luciferase activity assay and ChIP assay. RESULTS The results indicated that HDAC3 and CDK2 were upregulated while miR-19a-3p was downregulated in myocardial tissues of I/R rats. The inhibited HDAC3/CDK2 or elevated miR-19a-3p could promote cardiac function, attenuate pathological changes, inflammatory reaction, oxidative stress, myocardial infarction area and apoptosis of myocardial tissues. HDAC3 mediates miR-19a-3p and CDK2 is targeted by miR-19a-3p. CONCLUSION Inhibited HDAC3 ameliorates MIRI in a rat model by elevating miR-19a-3p and reducing CDK2, which may contribute to the treatment of MIRI.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the number one threat that seriously endangers human health. However, the mechanism of their occurrence is not completely clear. Increasing studies showed that mitochondrial dysfunction is closely related to CVD. Possible causes of mitochondrial dysfunction include oxidative stress, Ca2+ disorder, mitochondrial DNA mutations, and reduction of mitochondrial biosynthesis, all of which are closely related to the development of CVD. At present, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is widely used in the treatment of CVD. TCM has the therapeutic characteristics of multitargets and multipathways. Studies have shown that TCM can treat CVD by protecting mitochondrial function. Via systematic literature review, the results show that the specific mechanisms include antioxidant stress, regulation of calcium homeostasis, antiapoptosis, and regulation of mitochondrial biosynthesis. This article describes the relationship between mitochondrial dysfunction and CVD, summarizes the TCM commonly used for the treatment of CVD in recent years, and focuses on the regulatory effect of TCM on mitochondrial function.

Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction is associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality and can cause irreversible myocardial damage. Timely reperfusion is critical to limit infarct size and salvage the ischemic myocardium. However, reperfusion may exacerbate lethal tissue injury, a phenomenon known as myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Pharmacological postconditioning (PPC), a strategy involving medication administration before or during the early minutes of reperfusion, is more efficient and flexible than preconditioning or ischemic conditioning. Previous studies have shown that various mechanisms are involved in the effects of PPC. In this review, we summarize the relative effects and potential underlying mechanisms of PPC to provide a foundation for future research attempting to develop novel treatments against myocardial I/R injury.

Dissecting Cellular Mechanisms of Long-Chain Acylcarnitines-Driven Cardiotoxicity: Disturbance of Calcium Homeostasis, Activation of Ca 2+-Dependent Phospholipases, and Mitochondrial Energetics Collapse. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21207461. [PMID: 33050414 PMCID: PMC7589681 DOI: 10.3390/ijms21207461] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2020] [Revised: 10/05/2020] [Accepted: 10/07/2020] [Indexed: 01/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Long-chain acylcarnitines (LCAC) are implicated in ischemia-reperfusion (I/R)-induced myocardial injury and mitochondrial dysfunction. Yet, molecular mechanisms underlying involvement of LCAC in cardiac injury are not sufficiently studied. It is known that in cardiomyocytes, palmitoylcarnitine (PC) can induce cytosolic Ca2+ accumulation, implicating L-type calcium channels, Na+/Ca2+ exchanger, and Ca2+-release from sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). Alternatively, PC can evoke dissipation of mitochondrial potential (ΔΨm) and mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP). Here, to dissect the complex nature of PC action on Ca2+ homeostasis and oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) in cardiomyocytes and mitochondria, the methods of fluorescent microscopy, perforated path-clamp, and mitochondrial assays were used. We found that LCAC in dose-dependent manner can evoke Ca2+-sparks and oscillations, long-living Ca2+ enriched microdomains, and, finally, Ca2+ overload leading to hypercontracture and cardiomyocyte death. Collectively, PC-driven cardiotoxicity involves: (I) redistribution of Ca2+ from SR to mitochondria with minimal contribution of external calcium influx; (II) irreversible inhibition of Krebs cycle and OXPHOS underlying limited mitochondrial Ca2+ buffering; (III) induction of mPTP reinforced by PC-calcium interplay; (IV) activation of Ca2+-dependent phospholipases cPLA2 and PLC. Based on the inhibitory analysis we may suggest that simultaneous inhibition of both phospholipases could be an effective strategy for protection against PC-mediated toxicity in cardiomyocytes.

Abstract
Since the mid-20th century, ischemic heart disease has been the world’s leading cause of death. Developing effective clinical cardioprotection strategies would make a significant impact in improving both quality of life and longevity in the worldwide population. Both ex vivo and in vivo animal models of cardiac ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury are robustly used in research. Connexin43 (Cx43), the predominant gap junction channel-forming protein in cardiomyocytes, has emerged as a cardioprotective target. Cx43 posttranslational modifications as well as cellular distribution are altered during cardiac reperfusion injury, inducing phosphorylation states and localization detrimental to maintaining intercellular communication and cardiac conduction. Pre- (before ischemia) and post- (after ischemia but before reperfusion) conditioning can abrogate this injury process, preserving Cx43 and reducing cell death. Pre-/post-conditioning has been shown to largely rely on the presence of Cx43, including mitochondrial Cx43, which is implicated to play a major role in pre-conditioning. Posttranslational modifications of Cx43 after injury alter the protein interactome, inducing negative protein cascades and altering protein trafficking, which then causes further damage post-I/R injury. Recently, several peptides based on the Cx43 sequence have been found to successfully diminish cardiac injury in pre-clinical studies.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are reported to be involved in renal hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) damage. To investigate this further, human kidney (HK-2) cells were cultured, subjected to H/R and the function of miR-30a-5p and glutamate dehydrogenase 1 (GLUD1) was evaluated. The results showed that, miR-30-5p was downregulated and GLUD1 was upregulated in HK-2 cells exposed to H/R. The relationship between miR-30a-5p and GLUD1 was determined using dual luciferase assays. Primary HK-2 cells were cultured in H/R and transfected with negative control 1 (NC1), negative control 2 (NC2), mimic, inhibitor or GLUD1 siRNA plasmids. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activities, and the rate of apoptosis in HK-2 cells were assessed. The results showed that, miR-30a-5p mimic reduced the production of ROS in HK-2 cells treated with H/R, but increased the activity of SOD, CAT and GPx. In addition, miR-30a-5p mimic significantly decreased H/R-mediated apoptosis, decreased the expression of bax and activity of caspase-3 and enhanced the expression of bcl-2. However, miR-30a-5p inhibitor showed the opposite effect with regard to the degree of oxidative damage and apoptosis in H/R-induced HK-2 cells. Silencing GLUD1 rescued the influence of miR-30a-5p inhibitor on oxidative injury and apoptosis in HK-2 cells stimulated with H/R. These results demonstrated that under H/R conditions, miR-30a-5p can reduce oxidative stress in vitro by targeting GLUD1, which may be a novel therapeutic target for liver failure and worth further study.

Abstract
Background To determine the safely and effectively of del Nido cardioplegia (DNC) in surgery for aortic root disease, with mild hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Methods From July to December 2017, all patients undergoing the surgery for aortic root disease (total aortic root replacement, valve-sparing aortic root replacement and replacement of aortic valve plus ascending aorta), with mild hypothermic CPB, were retrospectively reviewed at our institution. Patients were divided into two groups based on the type of cardioplegia: the classical blood cardioplegia (CBC group) and del Nido cardioplegia (DNC group). Demographics, operative details, perioperative data and postoperative complications were recorded and compared. A propensity score matching was performed in this study. Results The preoperative data in DNC group were similar to CBC group. The volume of ultrafiltration was lower in DNC than CBC group (2,053.49±806.62 DNC vs. 2,666.00±967.14 CBC, P=0.001), when matched. The use of temporary pacemaker was more in DNC group (n=20, 46.5%, P=0.023), and the rate of automatic heart resuscitating was higher in the CBC group (92.0% vs. 72.1% DNC group, P=0.024, unmatched).There were no differences in in-hospital mortality, troponin T (mean 0.66 ng/mL for CBC group vs. 0.49 ng/mL for DNC group, P=0.152), left ventricular ejection fraction (mean 58.37% for CBC group vs. 60.07% for DNC group, P=0.395) or other postoperative complications between two groups, after matching. In subgroup analysis, the ultrafiltration volume was lower in DNC than CBC group (1,932.26±749.39 DNC vs. 2,640.00±996.24 CBC, P=0.004), when ACC time less than or equal to 90 minutes. The apache score was better in DNC group (4.75±3.41, P=0.041), when ACC time greater than 90 min. There were no statistical significances in other characteristics between groups. Conclusions DNC is safe and effective for surgery for aortic root disease, not inferior to the CBC.

Abstract
Ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase core protein 1 (UQCRC1) plays a key role in influencing mitochondrial function. Increasing evidence supports that UQCRC1 overexpression takes part in cardioprotection. However, it remains unclear about the signaling pathway mediating the protective role of UQCRC1 overexpression. Thus, the current study aimed to investigate the signaling pathway. Inhibition of PI3K completely abolished the protective effects of UQCRC1 overexpression on cell viability and mitochondrial membrane potential after OGD or hydrogen peroxide injury in H9c2 cardiac cells, while inhibition of ERK only partially abolished these effects. Moreover, UQCRC1 overexpression dramatically increased the phosphorylation of PI3K downstream signal molecules including Akt and GSK-3β. Finally, UQCRC1 overexpression upregulated the expression of antiapoptotic protein Bcl-2, downregulated the expression of proapoptotic protein Bax, decreased active caspase 3 expression and cell apoptosis, which were completely abolished by inhibition of PI3K. In conclusion, UQCRC1 overexpression protects H9c2 cardiac cells against mimic ischemia/reperfusion injury through mediating PI3K/Akt/GSK-3β pathway to regulate apoptosis-related proteins.

Abstract
While survival rates have markedly improved following cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury, the resulting heart damage remains an important issue. Preserving mitochondrial quality and limiting NLRP3 inflammasome activation is an approach to limit IR injury, in which the mitochondrial deacetylase sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) has a role. Recent data demonstrate cytochrome P450 (CYP450)-derived epoxy metabolites, epoxydocosapentaenoic acids (EDPs), of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), attenuate cardiac IR injury. EDPs undergo rapid removal and inactivation by enzymatic and non-enzymatic processes. The current study hypothesizes that the cardioprotective effects of the synthetic EDP surrogates AS-27, SA-26 and AA-4 against IR injury involve activation of SIRT3. Isolated hearts from wild type (WT) mice were perfused in the Langendorff mode with vehicle, AS-27, SA-26 or AA-4. Improved postischemic functional recovery, maintained cardiac ATP levels, reduced oxidative stress and attenuation of NLRP3 activation were observed in hearts perfused with the analogue SA-26. Assessment of cardiac mitochondria demonstrated SA-26 preserved SIRT3 activity and reduced acetylation of manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) suggesting enhanced antioxidant capacity. Together, these data demonstrate that the cardioprotective effects of the EDP analogue SA-26 against IR injury involve preservation of mitochondrial SIRT3 activity, which attenuates a detrimental innate NLRP3 inflammasome response.

Abstract
Isolated sulphite oxidase deficiency (iSOD) is an autosomal recessive inborn error in metabolism characterised by accumulation of sulphite, which leads to death in early infancy. Sulphite oxidase (SO) is encoded by the SUOX gene and forms a heme- and molybdenum-cofactor-dependent enzyme localised in the intermembrane space of mitochondria. Within SO, both cofactors are embedded in two separated domains, which are linked via a flexible 11 residue tether. The two-electron oxidation of sulphite to sulphate occurs at the molybdenum active site. From there, electrons are transferred via two intramolecular electron transfer steps (IETs) via the heme cofactor and to the physiologic electron acceptor cytochrome c. Previously, we reported nitrite and oxygen to serve as alternative electron acceptors at the Moco active site, thereby overcoming IET within SO. Here, we present evidence for these reactions to occur in an iSOD patient with an unusual mild disease representation. In the patient, a homozygous c.427C>A mutation within the SUOX gene leads to replacement of the highly conserved His143 to Asn. The affected His143 is one of two heme-iron-coordinating residues within SO. We demonstrate, that the H143N SO variant fails to bind heme in vivo leading to the elimination of SO-dependent cytochrome c reduction in mitochondria. We show, that sulphite oxidation at the Moco domain is unaffected in His143Asn SO variant and demonstrate that nitrite and oxygen are able to serve as electron acceptors for sulphite-derived electrons in cellulo. As result, the patient H143N SO variant retains residual sulphite oxidising activity thus ameliorating iSOD progression.

Abstract
Oridonin (ORI), the major pharmacological component extracted from a traditional Chinese medicine, possesses a beneficial effect on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. However, the underlying molecular mechanism by which ORI effects take place is not completely known. Thus, whether ORI works via downregulating oxidative stress and nod-like receptor protein-3 (NLRP3) inflammasome pathway was investigated in this study. Mice underwent surgery to induce myocardial I/R injury, and some were administered ORI (10 mg/kg/day) pretreatment, while others were not. The myocardial enzymes' levels, infarct area, and inflammatory injury were measured. The activation situation of oxidative stress and NLRP3 inflammasome was also detected. We found that ORI pretreatment significantly alleviated CK-MB and cTnI levels and infarct size induced by I/R. ORI mitigated the inflammatory injury by decreasing the pathological damage and lowering TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-18 levels. Moreover, the SOD1 and eNOS levels were significantly increased by ORI, while MDA and iNOS levels were relatively decreased. The oxidative stress was reversed using ORI pretreatment. Importantly, NLRP3 inflammasome pathway was also inhibited by ORI, as reflected by the lower protein levels of NLRP3, caspase-1, and IL-1β. In conclusion, ORI alleviates myocardial injury induced by I/R via inhibiting the oxidative stress and NLRP3 inflammasome pathway.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate whether the attenuation of mitochondrial Ca2+ overload produced by pharmacological blockade of mitochondrial Ca2+ uniporter (MCU) protects the myocardium against injuries caused by cardiac ischemia and reperfusion (CIR). METHODS CIR was induced in adult male Wistar rats (300-350 g) by occlusion of the left anterior descendent coronary artery (10 min), followed by reperfusion (120 min). Rats were treated with different doses of MCU blocker ruthenium red (RuR), administered 5 min before ischemia or reperfusion. RESULTS In untreated rats, the incidences of ventricular arrhythmias (VA), atrioventricular block (AVB) and the lethality (LET) induced by CIR were 85%, 79% and 70%, respectively. In rats treated with RuR before ischemia, the incidences of VA, AVB and LET were significantly reduced to 62%, 25% and 25%, respectively. In rats treated with RuR after ischemia, the incidences of VA, AVB and LET were significantly reduced to 50%, 25% and 25%, respectively. CONCLUSION The significant reduction of the incidence of CIR-induced VA, AVB and LET produced by the treatment with RuR indicates that the attenuation of mitochondrial Ca2+ overload produced by pharmacological blockade of MCU can protect the myocardium against injuries caused by CIR.

Abstract
Mitochondria are the major source of cellular energy (ATP), as well as critical mediators of widespread functions such as cellular redox balance, apoptosis, and metabolic flux. The organelles play an especially important role in the maintenance of cardiac homeostasis; their inability to generate ATP following impairment due to ischemic damage has been directly linked to organ failure. Methods to quantify mitochondrial content are limited to low throughput immunoassays, measurement of mitochondrial DNA, or relative quantification by untargeted mass spectrometry. Here, we present a high throughput, reproducible and quantitative mass spectrometry multiple reaction monitoring based assay of 37 proteins critical to central carbon chain metabolism and overall mitochondrial function termed 'MitoPlex'. We coupled this protein multiplex with a parallel analysis of the central carbon chain metabolites (219 metabolite assay) extracted in tandem from the same sample, be it cells or tissue. In tests of its biological applicability in cells and tissues, "MitoPlex plus metabolites" indicated profound effects of HMG-CoA Reductase inhibition (e.g., statin treatment) on mitochondria of i) differentiating C2C12 skeletal myoblasts, as well as a clear opposite trend of statins to promote mitochondrial protein expression and metabolism in heart and liver, while suppressing mitochondrial protein and ii) aspects of metabolism in the skeletal muscle obtained from C57Bl6 mice.

mPTP Proteins Regulated by Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetes Mellitus Are Effectively Involved in the Processes of Maintaining Myocardial Metabolic Adaptation. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21072622. [PMID: 32283821 PMCID: PMC7177250 DOI: 10.3390/ijms21072622] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2020] [Revised: 04/04/2020] [Accepted: 04/07/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Mitochondrial permeability transition pores (mPTPs) have become an important topic in investigating the initiation and signaling pathways involved in cardioprotection. Experimental streptozotocin-induced diabetes mellitus (D) was shown to provide sufficient protection to the myocardium via compensatory mechanisms enabling mitochondria to produce energy under pathological conditions during the acute phase. The hypothesized involvement of mPTPs in these processes prompted us to use liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry-based proteomic analysis to investigate the effects of the acute-phase D condition on the structural and regulatory components of this multienzyme complex and the changes caused by compensation events. We detected ADT1, ATP5H, ATPA, and ATPB as the most abundant mPTP proteins. The between-group differences in protein abundance of the mPTP complex as a whole were significantly upregulated in the D group when compared with the control (C) group (p = 0.0106), but fold changes in individual protein expression levels were not significantly altered except for ATP5H, ATP5J, and KCRS. However, none of them passed the criterion of a 1.5-fold change in differential expression for biologically meaningful change. Visualization of the (dis-)similarity between the C and D groups and pairwise correlations revealed different patterns of protein interactions under the C and D conditions which may be linked to endogenous protective processes, of which beneficial effects on myocardial function were previously confirmed.

Abstract
Mitogen- and stress-activated protein kinase (MSK) is a recently identified nuclear cAMP-regulated enhancer B (CREB) and histone H3 kinase that responds to both mitogen- and stress-activated protein kinases. This study was designed to investigate the protective effect of MSK on the rats with focal ischemia-reperfusion injury. The rat model was established by inserting thread into the middle cerebral artery. The protein expression was measured by immunoblotting. The localization of MSK was measured by immunofluorescence assay. Highly-differentiated pheochromocytoma 12 (PC12) is used as a sympathetic neuron-like cell line and treated with glutamate to induce neurotoxicity. MSK was knocked down and overexpressed by siRNA and MSK over-expressing vector, respectively. The cell viability was measured by cell counting kit (CCK-8) assay. The coronal sections were isolated and stained with 2, 3, 5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) to determine infarct volume. Finally, astrocytes were separated from cerebral cortexes of normal rats to analyze the effects of MSK on inflammatory response. In the rats with focal ischemia-reperfusion injury, the expression of MSK was reduced, reaching the lowest level at 3 d after ischemia-reperfusion, and then recovered gradually. MSK was found mainly localized in neurons and astrocytes. The expression levels of caspase-3, caspase-8, caspase-9, and INOS showed the opposite trend with respect to MSK. Further analysis showed that overexpression of MSK exerted a protective effect on glutamate-induced neurotoxicity through inhibiting apoptosis of PC12 cells, as well as decreased the infarct size in rat with focal ischemia-reperfusion injury. On the contrary, knockdown of MSK showed opposite results. Finally, MSK suppressed LPS-induced inflammatory response by decreasing the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (INOS) and increasing the expression of interleukin-10 (IL-10) in astrocytes from cerebral cortexes of normal rats. In conclusion, MSK exerted a protective effect on rat with focal ischemia-reperfusion injury through its anti-apoptotic effect on neurons and anti-inflammatory effect on astrocytes.

Abstract
Ischemia and reperfusion injury is a complex hemodynamic pathological phenomenon that engages the metabolic to inflammatory machinery in development of disease conditions like heart failure, stroke and acute kidney failure. Target specific therapeutic approaches for ischemia reperfusion injury remains critical despite the extensive studies contributing to the understanding of its pathogenesis. Ischemic or pharmacological conditionings have been long established manipulations to harness the endogenous protective mechanisms against ischemia reperfusion injury that fostered the development of potential therapeutic targets such as sphingolipids signaling. Sphingosine 1-phosphate has been emerged as a crucial metabolite of sphingolipids to regulate the cell survival, vascular integrity and inflammatory cascades in ischemia reperfusion injury. Sphingosine 1-phosphate signaling process has been implicated to downgrade the mitochondrial dysfunction, apoptotic assembly along with upregulation of RISK and SAFE pro-survival pathways. It also regulates the endothelial dysfunction and immune cells behavior to control the vascular permeability and immune cells infiltration at ischemia reperfusion injury site. Targeting the signaling of this single moiety holds the vast potential to extensively influence the detrimental signaling of ischemia reperfusion injury. This review highlights the role and significance of S1P signaling that can be therapeutically exploit to treat ischemia reperfusion injury mediated pathological conditions in different organs.

Neuregulin-1 promotes mitochondrial biogenesis, attenuates mitochondrial dysfunction, and prevents hypoxia/reoxygenation injury in neonatal cardiomyocytes. Cell Biochem Funct 2020; 38:549-557.

Abstract
Neuregulin-1 (NRG-1)/erythroblastic leukaemia viral oncogene homologues (ErbB) pathway activation plays a crucial role in regulating the adaptation of the adult heart to physiological and pathological stress. In the present study, we investigate the effect of recombined human NRG-1 (rhNRG-1) on mitochondrial biogenesis, mitochondrial function, and cell survival in neonatal rat cardiac myocytes (NRCMs) exposed to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R). The results of this study showed that, in the H/R-exposed NRCMs, mitochondrial biogenesis was impaired, as manifested by the decrease of the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1 alpha (PGC-1α) and mitochondrial membrane proteins, the inner membrane (Tim23), mitofusin 1 (Mfn1), and mitofusin 2 (Mfn2). RhNRG-1 pretreatment effectively restored the expression of PGC-1α and these membrane proteins, upregulated the expression of the anti-apoptosis proteins Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL, preserved the mitochondrial membrane potential, and attenuated H/R-induced cell apoptosis. Blocking PGC-1 expression with siRNA abolished the beneficial role of rhNRG-1 on mitochondrial function and cell survival. The results of the present study strongly suggest that NRG-1/ErbB activation enhances the adaption of cardiomyocytes to H/R injury via promoted mitochondrial biogenesis and improved mitochondrial homeostasis. SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY: The results of this research revealed for the first time the relationship between neuregulin-1 (NRG-1)/erythroblastic leukaemia viral oncogene homologues (ErbB) activation and mitochondrial biogenesis in neonatal cardiomyocytes and verified the significance of this promoted mitochondrial biogenesis in attenuating hypoxia/reoxygenation injury. This finding may open a new field to further understand the biological role of NRG-1/ErbB signalling pathway in cardiomyocyte.

Abstract
Donation after circulatory death (DCD) could improve donor heart availability; however, warm ischemia-reperfusion injury raises concerns about graft quality. Mechanical postconditioning (MPC) may limit injury, but mechanisms remain incompletely characterized. Therefore, we investigated the roles of glucose metabolism and key signaling molecules in MPC using an isolated rat heart model of DCD. Hearts underwent 20 min perfusion, 30 min global ischemia, and 60 minu reperfusion with or without MPC (two cycles: 30 s reperfusion—30 s ischemia). Despite identical perfusion conditions, MPC either significantly decreased (low recovery = LoR; 32 ± 5%; p < 0.05), or increased (high recovery = HiR; 59 ± 7%; p < 0.05) the recovery of left ventricular work compared with no MPC (47 ± 9%). Glucose uptake and glycolysis were increased in HiR vs. LoR hearts (p < 0.05), but glucose oxidation was unchanged. Furthermore, in HiR vs. LoR hearts, phosphorylation of raptor, a downstream target of AMPK, increased (p < 0.05), cytochrome c release (p < 0.05) decreased, and TNFα content tended to decrease. Increased glucose uptake and glycolysis, lower mitochondrial damage, and a trend towards decreased pro-inflammatory cytokines occurred specifically in HiR vs. LoR MPC hearts, which may result from greater AMPK activation. Thus, we identify endogenous cellular mechanisms that occur specifically with cardioprotective MPC, which could be elicited in the development of effective reperfusion strategies for DCD cardiac grafts.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) is the principal cause of death in many countries. Silymarin (SM) is a herbal antioxidant and can be efficiently used in preventing cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). The study is aimed to enhance the absorption rate and biological activity of SM by using liquisolids besides investigating the cardioprotective activity of SM and its selected liquisolid formula against isoproterenol prompted cardiotoxicity in rats. Eight formulae were prepared according to (23) full-factorial design. The effect of viscosity increasing agent type and concentration, as well as the carrier/coat ratio on the dissolution rate and angle of repose were studied. All formulae were tested for content uniformity, micromeritic properties, dissolution performance besides the evaluation of its physicochemical properties, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Based on the factorial design outcomes, the highest desirability was obtained from F3 with excipient ratio value (R) of 20%, dissolution rate at Q5 min of 26.9%, and angle of repose of 19. Oral administration of F3 liquisolid and SM revealed a significant protective efficacy against the modification of cardiac plasma markers, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), interleukin-10 (IL-10), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 besides cardiac superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), and total protein kinase-1 (Akt-1) levels. Additionally, they minimized cardiac inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), microRNA-34a (miR-34a), and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38-MAPK) levels. In conclusion, F3 liquisolid compact possessed an overall pronounced results over pure SM reckoned to its enhanced solubility and efficacy.

A Comorbidity Model of Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury and Hypercholesterolemia in Rat Cardiac Myocyte Cultures. Front Physiol 2020; 10:1564.

Abstract
Introduction The use of comorbidity models is crucial in cardioprotective drug development. Hypercholesterolemia causes endothelial and myocardial dysfunction, as well as aggravates ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced myocardial injury. Endogenous cardioprotective mechanisms against I/R are impaired in hyperlipidemic and hyperglycemic in vivo animal models. Therefore, our aim was to develop a medium throughput comorbidity cell-based test system of myocardial I/R injury, hypercholesterolemia and hyperglycemia that mimics comorbidity conditions. Methods Cardiac myocytes isolated from neonatal or adult rat hearts were cultured in control or in three different hypercholesterolemic media with increasing cholesterol content (hiChol) or hiChol + hyperglycemic medium, respectively. Each group was then subjected to simulated ischemia/reperfusion (SI/R) or corresponding normoxic condition, respectively. Cholesterol uptake was tested by Filipin staining in neonatal cardiac myocytes. Cell viability, total cell count and oxidative stress, i.e., total reactive oxygen species (ROS) and superoxide level were measured by fluorescent assays. Results Neonatal cardiac myocytes took up cholesterol from the different hiChol media at a concentration-dependent manner. In normoxia, viability of hiChol neonatal cardiac myocytes was not significantly changed, however, superoxide levels were increased as compared to vehicle. After SI/R, the viability of hiChol neonatal cardiac myocytes was decreased and total ROS level was increased as compared to vehicle. HiChol combined with hyperglycemia further aggravated cell death and oxidative stress in normoxic as well as in SI/R conditions. Viability of hiChol adult cardiac myocytes was significantly decreased and superoxide level was increased in normoxia and these changes were further aggravated by SI/R. HiChol combined with hyperglycemia further aggravated cell death, however level of oxidative stress increased only in normoxic condition. Conclusion HiChol rat cardiac myocytes showed reduction of cell viability and increased oxidative stress, which were further aggravated by SI/R and with additional hyperglycemia. This is the first demonstration that the combination of the current hypercholesterolemic medium and SI/R in cardiac myocytes mimics the cardiac pathology of the comorbid heart with I/R and hypercholesterolemia.

Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction is a major cause of death and disability worldwide. This study was designed to elucidate the effect of resveratrol (RES) in isoproterenol (ISO)-challenged myocardial injury in rats. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly allocated to four groups (10 rats/group): negative, control positive ISO (85 mg/kg), Propranolol/ISO, and RES/ISO. RES (50 mg/kg) improved plasma lactate dehydrogenase, creatine kinase, and cardiac troponin T; brain natriuretic peptide, interleukin-10, vascular endothelial growth factor, and transforming growth factor-β1; as well as cardiac superoxide dismutase, malondialdehyde, and total protein kinase-1 (Akt-1) levels. In addition, RES reduced the expression of cardiac inducible nitric oxide synthase and microRNA-34a, as well as p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase levels compared with positive control group. In conclusion, RES could reduce the degree of MI induced by ISO by improving the antioxidant, antiapoptotic, and anti-inflammatory capacities of the body.

Abstract
Administration of propofol at the time of reperfusion has shown to protect the heart from ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) injury. The aim of the present study was to investigate the molecular mechanism underling the cardioprotective effect of propofol against myocardial I/R injury (MIRI) in vivo and in vitro. Rat heart I/R injury was induced by ligation of the left anterior descending (LAD) artery for 30 min followed by 2-hr reperfusion. Propofol pretreatment (0.01 mg/g) was performed 10 min before reperfusion. In vitro MIRI was investigated in cultured cardiomyocytes H9C2 following hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injuries. Propofol pretreatment in vitro was achieved in the medium supplemented with 25 μmol/L propofol before H/R injuries. Propofol pretreatment significantly increased miRNA-451 expression, decreased HMGB1 expression, reduced infarct size, and I/R-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis in rat hearts undergoing I/R injuries. Knockdown of miRNA-451 48 hr before I/R injury was found to increase HMGB1 expression, infarct size, and I/R-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis in rat hearts in the presence of propofol pretreatment. These in vivo findings were reproduced in vivo that knockdown of miRNA-451 48 hr before H/R injuries increased HMGB1 expression and H/R-induced apoptosis in cultured H9C2 supplemented with propofol. In addition, luciferase activity assays and gain-of-function studies found that propofol could decrease HMGB1, the target of miRNA-541. Taken together our findings provide a first demonstration that propofol-mediated cardioprotection against MIRI is dependent of microRNA-451/HMGB1. The study provides a novel target to prevent I/R injury during propofol anesthesia.

Abstract
This study examined the activation of mitophagy following cardiac arrest (CA) and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and the relationship between the change with time and apoptosis. MAIN METHODS The male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into four groups: Sham group, CPR24h group, CPR48h group, CPR72h group. The rat model of cardiac arrest was established by asphyxiation. We employed western blot to analyze the levels of mitophagy related proteins of hippocampus, JC-1 to detect mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and flow cytometry to measure the rate of apoptosis of hippocampal neurons. Moreover, we also intuitively observed the occurrence of mitophagy through electron microscopy. KEY FINDINGS The results showed that the levels of TOMM20 and Tim23 protein were significantly decreased after CPR, which were more remarkable following 72 h of CPR. However, the protein levels of dynamin related protein 1 (Drp1) and cytochrome C (Cyt-c) were strongly up-regulated after CPR. Meanwhile, the hippocampal MMP decreased gradually with time after CPR. Furthermore, we more intuitively verified the activation of mitophagy through electron microscopy. In addition, the rats of apoptosis rate of hippocampus after CPR were significantly increased, which were gradually enhanced over time from 24 h until at least 72 h following CPR. SIGNIFICANCE with the enhancement of mitophagy, the apoptosis of hippocampal neurons was gradually enhanced, which suggested mitophagy may be excessive activated and aggravating brain damage after CA and CPR.

Abstract
Therapies intended to mitigate cardiovascular complications cannot be applied in practice without detailed knowledge of molecular mechanisms. Mitochondria, as the end-effector of cardioprotection, represent one of the possible therapeutic approaches. The present review provides an overview of factors affecting the regulation processes of mitochondria at the level of mitochondrial permeability transition pores (mPTP) resulting in comprehensive myocardial protection. The regulation of mPTP seems to be an important part of the mechanisms for maintaining the energy equilibrium of the heart under pathological conditions. Mitochondrial connexin 43 is involved in the regulation process by inhibition of mPTP opening. These individual cardioprotective mechanisms can be interconnected in the process of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation resulting in the maintenance of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production. In this context, the degree of mitochondrial membrane fluidity appears to be a key factor in the preservation of ATP synthase rotation required for ATP formation. Moreover, changes in the composition of the cardiolipin’s structure in the mitochondrial membrane can significantly affect the energy system under unfavorable conditions. This review aims to elucidate functional and structural changes of cardiac mitochondria subjected to preconditioning, with an emphasis on signaling pathways leading to mitochondrial energy maintenance during partial oxygen deprivation.

Single-Channel Properties of the ROMK-Pore-Forming Subunit of the Mitochondrial ATP-Sensitive Potassium Channel. Int J Mol Sci 2019; 20:ijms20215323.

Abstract
An increased flux of potassium ions into the mitochondrial matrix through the ATP-sensitive potassium channel (mitoKATP) has been shown to provide protection against ischemia-reperfusion injury. Recently, it was proposed that the mitochondrial-targeted isoform of the renal outer medullary potassium channel (ROMK) protein creates a pore-forming subunit of mitoKATP in heart mitochondria. Our research focuses on the properties of mitoKATP from heart-derived H9c2 cells. For the first time, we detected single-channel activity and describe the pharmacology of mitoKATP in the H9c2 heart-derived cells. The patch-clamping of mitoplasts from wild type (WT) and cells overexpressing ROMK2 revealed the existence of a potassium channel that exhibits the same basic properties previously attributed to mitoKATP. ROMK2 overexpression resulted in a significant increase of mitoKATP activity. The conductance of both channels in symmetric 150/150 mM KCl was around 97 ± 2 pS in WT cells and 94 ± 3 pS in cells overexpressing ROMK2. The channels were inhibited by 5-hydroxydecanoic acid (a mitoKATP inhibitor) and by Tertiapin Q (an inhibitor of both the ROMK-type channels and mitoKATP). Additionally, mitoKATP from cells overexpressing ROMK2 were inhibited by ATP/Mg2+ and activated by diazoxide. We used an assay based on proteinase K to examine the topology of the channel in the inner mitochondrial membrane and found that both termini of the protein localized to the mitochondrial matrix. We conclude that the observed activity of the channel formed by the ROMK protein corresponds to the electrophysiological and pharmacological properties of mitoKATP.

Abstract
The mitochondrial complexes are prone to sirtuin (Sirt)3-mediated deacetylation modification, which may determine cellular response to stimuli, such as oxidative stress. In this study, we show that the cytochrome c oxidase (COX)-1, a core catalytic subunit of mitochondrial complex IV, was acetylated and deactivated both in 2,2'-azobis(2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride-treated NIH/3T3 cells and hydrogen peroxide-treated primary neuronal cells, correlating with apoptotic cell death induction by oxidative stress. Inhibition of Sirt3 by small interfering RNA or the inhibitor nicotinamide induced accumulation of acetylation of COX-1, reduced mitochondrial membrane potential, and increased cell apoptosis. In contrast, overexpression of Sirt3 enhanced deacetylation of COX-1 and inhibited oxidative stress-induced apoptotic cell death. Significantly, rats treated with ischemia/reperfusion injury, a typical oxidative stress-related disease, presented an inhibition of Sirt3-induced hyperacetylation of COX-1 in the brain tissues. Furthermore, K13, K264, K319, and K481 were identified as the acetylation sits of COX-1 in response to oxidative stress. In conclusion, COX-1 was discovered as a new deacetylation target of Sirt3, indicating that the Sirt3/COX-1 axis is a promising therapy target of stress-related diseases.-Tu, L.-F., Cao, L.-F., Zhang, Y.-H., Guo, Y.-L., Zhou, Y.-F., Lu, W.-Q., Zhang, T.-Z., Zhang, T., Zhang, G.-X., Kurihara, H., Li, Y.-F., He, R.-R.

Abstract
Background Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is associated with cardiovascular mortality and morbidity. Several studies have reported that it affects the left ventricle; however, large randomized controlled trials are lacking. The current study aimed to summarize the association between OSAS and left ventricular (LV) structure and function. Methods Electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane) and references were searched for articles published until March 2018. A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to assess LV structure and function in OSAS patients based on echocardiography. Results In total, 17 studies with 747 OSAS patients and 426 control participants were included. Patients with OSAS showed an increase in LV diastolic diameter (weighted mean difference [WMD], 95% CI: 1.24 [0.68, 1.80]; p < 0.001), LV systolic diameter (WMD, 95% CI: 1.14 [0.47, 1.81]; p = 0.001), and LV mass (WMD, 95% CI: 35.34 [20.67, 50.00]; p < 0.001). In addition, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) significantly decreased in the OSAS group compared with the controls (WMD, 95% CIs: −1.82 [−2.76, −0.87]; p < 0.001), and the reduction in LVEF was consistent with the severity of OSAS. The OSAS group also showed an increase in left atrial diameter (WMD, 95% CI: 2.13 [1.48, 2.77]; p < 0.001) and left atrial diameter volume index (WMD, 95% CIs: 3.96 [3.32, 4.61]; p < 0.001). Conclusion Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome leads to atrial dilatation, left ventricular hypertrophy, enlargement, mass increase and reduction of systolic function. Treatments for OSAS might be beneficial for the preservation of left cardiac structure and function.

Abstract
Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is considered to have a detrimental role in coronary heart disease, which is considered to be the leading cause of death worldwide. However, the molecular mechanism involved in the progression of myocardial I/R injury is still unclear. The current study aimed to investigate the expression and function of microRNA (miR)-138 in the process of myocardial I/R injury. First, miR-138 expression levels were analyzed both in myocardium with I/R injury and control myocardium using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis. Then, the relationship between the levels of miR-138 and hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)1-α was also investigated using a luciferase reporter assay. Assessment of myocardial infarct size, measurements of serum myocardial enzymes and electron microscopy analysis were all utilized to analyse the effect of miR-138 on myocardial I/R injury. The authors of current study also used western blotting to examine the expression levels of the mitochondrial fission-related proteins dynamin-1-like protein and mitochondrial fission 1 protein. It was found that miR-138 is downregulated and HIF1-α is upregulated after myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury. Overexpression of miR-138 reduced myocardial I/R injury-induced infarct sizes and myocardial enzyme levels, and it also inhibited the expression of proteins related to mitochondrial morphology and myocardial I/R-induced mitochondrial apoptosis by targeting HIF1-α. Taken together, these findings provide a novel insight into the molecular mechanism of miR-138 and HIF1-α in the progression of myocardial I/R injury. miR-138 has the potential to become a promising therapeutic target for treating myocardial I/R injury.

Abstract
In this in vivo and in vitro study, we aimed to investigate whether isoflurane preconditioning-induced neuronal protection is mediated by reactive oxygen species (ROS) signaling at the reperfusion stage. In the in vivo study, Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) and in the in vitro study, rat pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells were subjected to oxygen glucose deprivation (OGD). Isoflurane preconditioning was carried out prior to MCAO or OGD and the ROS scavenger, N-2-mercaptopropiopylglycine (2-MPG), was administered at the start of reperfusion. Infarct volume, neurological severity score, and TUNEL staining were analyzed in the in vivo study and cell viability, Bcl-2/Bax ratio, cleaved caspase 3/caspase 3 ratio, and ROS fluorescence intensity were measured in the in vitro study. In the in vivo study, infarct volume, neurological severity score, and TUNEL-positive cell count were significantly decreased with preconditioning but were abrogated by administration of 2-MPG. In the in vitro study, cell viability and Bcl-2/Bax ratio were significantly increased with preconditioning, and cleaved caspase-3/caspase-3 ratio and ROS fluorescence intensity were significantly decreased. Administration of 2-MPG for 10 min abrogated this preconditioning effect, but it did not abolish the protection when administered for 60 min of reperfusion. Isoflurane preconditioning-induced protection was abolished by ROS scavengers at the start of reperfusion, indicating that ROS signaling can mediate the isoflurane preconditioning effect, which suggests that the time window can be important.

Abstract
AbstractIn addition to nitric oxide (NO) synthases, molybdenum-dependent enzymes have been reported to reduce nitrite to produce NO. Here, we report the stoichiometric reduction in nitrite to NO by human sulfite oxidase (SO), a mitochondrial intermembrane space enzyme primarily involved in cysteine catabolism. Kinetic and spectroscopic studies provide evidence for direct nitrite coordination at the molybdenum center followed by an inner shell electron transfer mechanism. In the presence of the physiological electron acceptor cytochrome c, we were able to close the catalytic cycle of sulfite-dependent nitrite reduction thus leading to steady-state NO synthesis, a finding that strongly supports a physiological relevance of SO-dependent NO formation. By engineering SO variants with reduced intramolecular electron transfer rate, we were able to increase NO generation efficacy by one order of magnitude, providing a mechanistic tool to tune NO synthesis by SO.

Abstract
AIMS Glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta (GSK3β) link with the mitochondrial Permeability Transition Pore (mPTP) in cardioprotection is debated. We investigated the role of GSK3β in ischaemia (I)/reperfusion (R) injury using pharmacological tools. METHODS AND RESULTS Infarct size using the GSK3β inhibitor BIO (6-bromoindirubin-3'-oxime) and several novel analogues (MLS2776-MLS2779) was determined in anaesthetized rabbits and mice. In myocardial tissue GSK3β inhibition and the specificity of the compounds was tested. The mechanism of protection focused on autophagy-related proteins. GSK3β localization was determined in subsarcolemmal (SSM) and interfibrillar mitochondria (IFM) isolated from Langendorff-perfused murine hearts (30'I/10'R or normoxic conditions). Calcium retention capacity (CRC) was determined in mitochondria after administration of the inhibitors in mice and in vitro. The effects of the inhibitors on mitochondrial respiration, reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation, ATP production, or hydrolysis were measured in SSM at baseline. Cyclosporine A (CsA) was co-administered with the inhibitors to address putative additive cardioprotective effects. Rabbits and mice treated with MLS compounds had smaller infarct size compared with control. In rabbits, MLS2776 and MLS2778 possessed greater infarct-sparing effects than BIO. GSK3β inhibition was confirmed at the 10th min and 2 h of reperfusion, while up-regulation of autophagy-related proteins was evident at late reperfusion. The mitochondrial amount of GSK3β was similar in normoxic SSM and IFM and was not altered by I/R. The inhibitors did not affect CRC or respiration, ROS and ATP production/hydrolysis at baseline. The co-administration of CsA ensured that cardioprotection was CypD-independent. CONCLUSION Pharmacological inhibition of GSK3β attenuates infarct size beyond mPTP inhibition.

Abstract
Ischemic heart disease (IHD) has several risk factors, among which diabetes mellitus represents one of the most important. In diabetic patients, the pathophysiology of myocardial ischemia remains unclear yet: some have atherosclerotic plaque which obstructs coronary blood flow, others show myocardial ischemia due to coronary microvascular dysfunction in the absence of plaques in epicardial vessels. In the cross-talk between myocardial metabolism and coronary blood flow (CBF), ion channels have a main role, and, in diabetic patients, they are involved in the pathophysiology of IHD. The exposition to the different cardiovascular risk factors and the ischemic condition determine an imbalance of the redox state, defined as oxidative stress, which shows itself with oxidant accumulation and antioxidant deficiency. In particular, several products of myocardial metabolism, belonging to oxidative stress, may influence ion channel function, altering their capacity to modulate CBF, in response to myocardial metabolism, and predisposing to myocardial ischemia. For this reason, considering the role of oxidative and ion channels in the pathophysiology of myocardial ischemia, it is allowed to consider new therapeutic perspectives in the treatment of IHD.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have an equivocal role in myocardial ischaemia reperfusion injury. Within the cardiomyocyte, mitochondria are both a major source and target of ROS. We evaluate the effects of a selective, dose-dependent increase in mitochondrial ROS levels on cardiac physiology using the mitochondria-targeted redox cycler MitoParaquat (MitoPQ). Low levels of ROS decrease the susceptibility of neonatal rat ventricular myocytes (NRVMs) to anoxia/reoxygenation injury and also cause profound protection in an in vivo mouse model of ischaemia/reperfusion. However higher doses of MitoPQ resulted in a progressive alteration of intracellular [Ca2+] homeostasis and mitochondrial function in vitro, leading to dysfunction and death at high doses. Our data show that a primary increase in mitochondrial ROS can alter cellular function, and support a hormetic model in which low levels of ROS are cardioprotective while higher levels of ROS are cardiotoxic.

Jansová H, Šimůnek T. Cardioprotective Potential of Iron Chelators and Prochelators. Curr Med Chem 2019; 26:288-301. [DOI: 10.2174/0929867324666170920155439] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/19/2016] [Revised: 06/07/2017] [Accepted: 09/12/2017] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
Heart is a particularly sensitive organ to iron overload and cardiomyopathy due to the excessive cardiac iron deposition causes most deaths in disorders such as beta-thalassemia major. Free or loosely bound iron ions readily cycle between ferrous and ferric states and catalyze Haber-Weiss reaction that yields highly reactive and toxic hydroxyl radicals. Treatment with iron chelators (desferrioxamine, deferiprone, and deferasirox) substantially improved cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in iron overloaded patients. Furthermore, iron chelators have been studied in various cardiovascular disorders with known or presumed oxidative stress roles (e.g., ischemia/reperfusion injury) also in patients with normal body iron contents. The pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic properties of these chelators are critical for effective therapy. For example, the widely clinically used but hydrophilic chelator desferrioxamine suffers from poor plasma membrane permeability, which means that high and clinically unachievable concentrations/doses must be employed to obtain cardioprotection. Therefore, small-molecular and lipophilic chelators with oral availability are more suitable for this purpose, particularly in states without systemic iron overload. Apart from agents that are already used in clinical practice, aroylhydrazone iron chelators, namely salicylaldehyde isonicotinoyl hydrazone (SIH), have provided promising results. However, the use of classical iron-chelating agents is associated with a risk of toxicity due to indiscriminate iron depletion. Recent studies have therefore focused on "masked" prochelators that have little or no affinity for iron until site-specific activation by reactive oxygen species.

Possible involvement of alpha B-crystallin in the cardioprotective effect of n-butanol extract of Potentilla anserina L. on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury in rat. PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2019; 55:320-329. [PMID: 30940361 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2018.10.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2018] [Revised: 10/15/2018] [Accepted: 10/18/2018] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND It has been reported that n-butanol extract of Potentilla anserina L (NP) had protective effect against acute myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in mice. Because of limited phytochemical study on NP, its bioactive compounds and underlying protective mechanisms are largely unclear. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the major bioactive compounds and possible mechanism for the cardioprotective effect of NP on rat with I/R injury. METHODS We analyzed the phytochemical isolation of NP and identified the structure of compounds, which was elucidated by a combination of spectroscopic analyses. An I/R model was established by I-30 min/R-2 h in Sprage-Dawley rats. The rats were given intragastric administration of NP (49.3, 98.6, and 197.2 mg•kg-1) continuously for 10 days before I/R operation. The morphological changes and apoptosis of cardiomyocytes were observed by H&E staining, Transmission electron microscope and TUNEL staining respectively. The activities or contents of catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH) in plasma were detected. Apoptosis related factors were also measured by RT-PCR and western blot. In order to discover the underlying mechanism of NP on I/R, we performed proteomic analysis using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) and matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF/MS) to describe differential proteins expression. Potential target protein resulted from 2D-DIGE coupled to MALDI-TOF/MS analysis were further confirmed by immunohistochemical staining, RT-PCR, and western blot. RESULTS We isolated and identified 14 compounds, of which 7 compounds belong to triterpenes. Rats pretreated with NP showed a significant increase on the activities of GSH, SOD and CAT, and remarkable decrease on the content of MDA. NP significantly inhibited the apoptosis of cardiomyocyte and decreased the expression of Cyt C and cleaved-caspase-3. Proteomic analysis revealed that alpha B-crystallin (CryAB) might participate in the NP protective effect against I/R. NP enhanced the level of pCryAB Ser59, whereas the expression of CryAB was decreased. CONCLUSION NP was showed to alleviate I/R injury and inhibit myocardial apoptosis, which might be associated with reduction on oxidative stress and apoptosis. CryAB as a possible target involved in the NP protective effect. This study supplied valuable information to develop novel cardioprotective agents from NP extract.

VEGF-A promotes angiogenesis after acute myocardial infarction through increasing ROS production and enhancing ER stress-mediated autophagy. J Cell Physiol 2019; 234:17690-17703. [PMID: 30793306 DOI: 10.1002/jcp.28395] [Citation(s) in RCA: 110] [Impact Index Per Article: 22.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2018] [Revised: 01/26/2019] [Accepted: 01/30/2019] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
Proangiogenesis is generally regarded as an effective approach for treating ischemic heart disease. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A is a strong and essential proangiogenic factor. Reactive oxygen species (ROS), endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and autophagy are implicated in the process of angiogenesis. This study is designed to clarify the regulatory mechanisms underlying VEGF-A, ROS, ER stress, autophagy, and angiogenesis in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). A mouse model of AMI was successfully established by occluding the left anterior descending coronary artery. Compared with the sham-operated mice, the microvessel density, VEGF-A content, ROS production, expression of vascular endothelial cadherin, positive expression of 78 kDa glucose-regulated protein/binding immunoglobulin protein (GRP78/Bip), and LC3 puncta in CD31-positive endothelial cells of the ischemic myocardium were overtly elevated. Moreover, VEGF-A exposure predominantly increased the expression of beclin-1, autophagy-related gene (ATG) 4, ATG5, inositol-requiring enzyme-1 (IRE-1), GRP78/Bip, and LC3-II/LC3-I as well as ROS production in the human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) in a dose and time-dependent manner. Both beclin-1 small interfering RNA and 3-methyladenine treatment predominantly mitigated VEGF-A-induced tube formation and migration of HUVECs, but they failed to elicit any notable effect on VEGF-A-increased expression of GRP78/Bip. Tauroursodeoxycholic acid not only obviously abolished VEGF-A-induced increase of IRE-1, GRP78/Bip, beclin-1 expression, and LC3-II/LC3-I, but also negated VEGF-A-induced tube formation and migration of HUVECs. Furthermore, N-acetyl- l-cysteine markedly abrogated VEGF-A-increased ROS production, IRE-1, GRP78/Bip, beclin-1 expression, and LC3-II/LC3-I in the HUVECs. Taken together, our data demonstrated that increased spontaneous production of VEGF-A may induce angiogenesis after AMI through initiating ROS-ER stress-autophagy axis in the vascular endothelial cells.

Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2019; 510:142-148.

Abstract
Our previous study showed that Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) could protect cardiomyocytes against hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury via the JAK-STAT pathway and maintain normal myocardial mitochondria integrity in vivo. However, it is not known yet whether S1P can relieve mitochondrial dysfunction via the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway and its detailed mechanism remains to be investigated. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the mitochondrial protective effects of S1P in a cardiomyocyte H/R injury model. In the present study, we established a H/R model in H9c2 cells. Cell viability was determined by the MTT assay, and apoptosis was evaluated by annexin V-FITC/PI staining. Mitochondrial calcium ion concentration, mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm), opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP), and release of cytochrome C were detected by laser confocal microscopy. The results showed that S1P inhibited the decrease in cell viability induced by H/R injury and reduced apoptosis. Confocal microscopy showed that S1P prevented loss of ΔΨm, relieved mitochondrial calcium overload, and inhibited opening of the mPTP and release of cytochrome C. The STAT3 inhibitor STATTIC can reverse the antiapoptotic effects of S1P and block the effect of S1P on mitochondria. Taken together, our results indicate that S1P protects cardiomyocytes against H/R injury by relieving mitochondrial dysfunction via the STAT3 pathway.

Imaging assessment of cardioprotection mediated by a dodecafluoropentane oxygen-carrier administered during myocardial infarction. Nucl Med Biol 2019; 70:67-77.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The objective of this study was to investigate the cardioprotective effects of a dodecafluoropentane (DDFP)-based perfluorocarbon emulsion (DDFPe) as an artificial carrier for oxygen delivery to ischemic myocardium, using 99mTc-duramycin SPECT imaging. METHODS Rat hearts with Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) was prepared by coronary ligation for 45-min followed by reperfusion. The feasibility of 99mTc-duramycin in detecting myocardial I/R injury and its kinetic profile were first verified in the ischemic hearts with 2-h reperfusion (n = 6). DDFPe (0.6 mL/kg) was intravenously administered at 10 min after coronary ligation in fifteen rats and saline was given in thirteen rats as controls. 99mTc-duramycin SPECT images were acquired in the DDFPe-treated hearts and saline controls at 2-h (DDFPe-2 h, n = 7 and Saline-2 h, n = 6) or 24-h (DDFPe-24 h, n = 8 and Saline-24 h, n = 7) of reperfusion. RESULTS SPECT images, showing "hot-spot" 99mTc-duramycin uptake in the ischemic myocardium, exhibited significantly lower radioactive retention and smaller hot-spot size in the DDFPe-2 h and DDFPe-24 h hearts compared to controls. The infarcts in the Saline-24 h hearts extended significantly relative to measurements in the Saline-2 h. The extension of infarct size did not reach a statistical difference between the DDFPe-2 h and DDFPe-24 h hearts. Ex vivo measurement of 99mTc-duramycin activity (%ID/g) was lower in the ischemic area of DDFPe-2 h and DDFPe-24 h than that of the Saline-2 h and Saline-24 h hearts (P < 0.05). The area of injured myocardium, delineated by the uptake of 99mTc-duramycin, extended more substantially outside the infarct zone in the controls. CONCLUSIONS Significant reduction in myocardial I/R injury, as assessed by 99mTc-duramycin cell death imaging and histopathological analysis, was induced by DDFPe treatment after acute myocardial ischemia. 99mTc-duramycin imaging can reveal myocardial cell death in ischemic hearts and may provide a tool for the non-invasive assessment of cardioprotective interventions.

Abstract
Objective(s): The aim of this study is to determine the therapeutic effects of pomegranate seed oil, which is a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent, on ovarian-ischemia and reperfusion injury in rats. Materials and Methods: Fifty-six female albino Wistar rats were divided into 7 equal groups. Group 1; Sham Operation, Group 2; Ischemia, Group 3; Ischemia + Reperfusion, Group 4; Ischemia + Pomegranate 0,32 ml / kg (IP), Group 5; Ischemia + Pomegranate 0.64 ml / kg, Group 6; Ischemia + Pomegranate 0,32 ml / kg + reperfusion, Group 7; Ischemia + Pomegranate 0,64 ml / kg + reperfusion. Three hours after ischemia and 3 hours after reperfusion, the study was terminated. Results: While NADPH oxidase activity, MDA and TNF-α levels were significantly increased, SOD activity and GSH levels were reduced in ischemia and I/R groups. Low dose pomegranate seed oil application reduced significantly oxidative stress and NADPH oxidase activity in both ischemic and ischemic/reperfusion groups. At the same time, low-dose pomegranate seed oil extract reduced TNF-α levels and significantly increased antioxidant activity. Conclusion: PSO demonstrated an important therapeutic effect in the treatment of ovarian ischemia and reperfusion injury.
