Abstract
AIMS To establish the cardioprotective effect of remote ischaemic preconditioning (RIPC) in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS AND RESULTS Pubmed (MEDLINE), Cochrane and Embase were systematically searched for randomised controlled trials of RIPC in patients undergoing PCI. Periprocedural myocardial infarction (PMI) was the primary endpoint (defined as troponin elevation >3 times upper reference limit) and C-reactive protein (CRP) was a secondary endpoint. Five studies with 731 patients were included. The median age of the patients was 62 (59-68) years old, 25% were female (23-33), 29% (25-33) had diabetes mellitus, and 26.5% (19-31) presented with multivessel disease. RIPC significantly reduced the incidence of PMI (odds ratio: 0.58 [0.36, 0.93]; I2 43%), with a greater benefit when performed using the lower limb (0.21 [0.07-0.66]) compared to the upper limb (0.67 [0.46-0.99]). This reduction was enhanced for patients with multivessel disease (beta -0.05 [-0.09;-0.01], p=0.01) and with type C lesion (beta -0.014 [-0.04;-0.010], p=0.01) and did not vary according to age, female gender, diabetes mellitus, use of beta-blockers and of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors. Absolute risk difference was -0.10 [-0.19, -0.02], with a number needed to treat of 10 [6-50] patients to avoid one event. CRP -0.69 [-1.69, 0.31] was not significantly reduced by RIPC. CONCLUSIONS RIPC reduced the incidence of PMI following PCI, especially when performed in the lower limb and for patients with multivessel disease and complex lesions.

Abstract
Remote ischaemic preconditioning is emerging as a promising clinical technique which can afford immediate protection against coronary ischaemia. The mechanisms which mediate the signal transduction from remote organ to the heart are still unclear. The role of ATP sensitive potassium channels in ischaemic preconditioning has been established. It is known that the red blood cell (RBC) acts as a mediator of local autoregulation in adjusting oxygen supply to demand by sensing hypoxia and releasing ATP locally to achieve vasodilatation in the adjacent vascular beds. Our hypothesis links these two known mechanisms. Remote ischaemic preconditioning and local RBC autoregulation might share a common mechanism using the ATP sensitive potassium channels. Therefore, we hypothesize that the signal transduction by RBC might be partly responsible for this protection against ischaemia.

Abstract
Recent findings indicate that apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) may be a protective humoral mediator involved in remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC). This study sought to determine if ApoA-I mediates its protective effects via the RISK and SAFE signaling pathways implicated in RIPC. Wistar rats were allocated to one of the following groups. Control: rats were subjected to myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) without any further intervention; RIPC: four cycles of limb I/R were applied prior to myocardial ischemia; ApoA-I: 10 mg/Kg of ApoA-I were intravenously injected prior to myocardial ischemia; ApoA-I + inhibitor: pharmacological inhibitors of RISK/SAFE pro-survival kinase (Akt, ERK1/2 and STAT-3) were administered prior to ApoA-I injection. Infarct size was significantly reduced in the RIPC group compared to Control. Similarly, ApoA-I injection efficiently protected the heart, recapitulating RIPC-induced cardioprotection. The ApoA-I protective effect was associated with Akt and GSK-3β phosphorylation and substantially inhibited by pretreatment with Akt and ERK1/2 inhibitors. Pretreatment with ApoA-I in a rat model of I/R recapitulates RIPC-induced cardioprotection and shares some similar molecular mechanisms with those of RIPC-involved protection of the heart.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) may confer the protection in critical organs. The authors hypothesized that limb RIPC would reduce lung injury in patients undergoing pulmonary resection. METHODS In a randomized, prospective, parallel, controlled trial, 216 patients undergoing elective thoracic pulmonary resection under one-lung ventilation with propofol-remifentanil anesthesia were randomized 1:1 to receive either limb RIPC or conventional lung resection (control). Three cycles of 5-min ischemia/5-min reperfusion induced by a blood pressure cuff served as RIPC stimulus. The primary outcome was PaO2/FIO2. Secondary outcomes included other pulmonary variables, the incidence of in-hospital complications, markers of oxidative stress, and inflammatory response. RESULTS Limb RIPC significantly increased PaO2/FIO2 compared with control at 30 and 60 min after one-lung ventilation, 30 min after re-expansion, and 6 h after operation (238 ± 52 vs. 192 ± 67, P = 0.03; 223 ± 66 vs. 184 ± 64, P = 0.01; 385 ± 61 vs. 320 ± 79, P = 0.003; 388 ± 52 vs. 317 ± 46, P = 0.001, respectively). In comparison with control, it also significantly reduced serum levels of interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α at 6, 12, 24, and 48 h after operation and malondialdehyde levels at 60 min after one-lung ventilation and 30 min after re-expansion (all P < 0.01). The incidence of acute lung injury and the length of postoperative hospital stay were markedly reduced by limb RIPC compared with control (all P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Limb RIPC attenuates acute lung injury via improving intraoperative pulmonary oxygenation in patients without severe pulmonary disease after lung resection under propofol-remifentanil anesthesia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The ability of remote ischemic perconditioning (RIPER) to protect the liver from ischemic-reperfusion (IR) injury has been reported before; however, the mechanism behind the positive effects of RIPER remains unrevealed. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the potential role of neural elements to transfer protective signals evoked by perconditioning. MATERIALS AND METHODS Male Wistar rats were randomly allocated into six groups (sham, IR, RIPER ± denervation; n = 7 per group). Half of the animals underwent left femoral and sciatic nerve resection. In IR and RIPER groups, normothermic, partial (70%) liver ischemia lasting for 60 min was induced; parallel animals in the RIPER groups received perconditioning treatment (4 × 5 - 5 min IR, left femoral artery clamping). Hepatic microcirculation and systemic blood pressure were monitored during the first postischemic hour. After 24 h of reperfusion, liver samples were taken for histology and redox-state analysis. Automated image analysis software was used for necrosis quantification. Serum alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, and bilirubin levels were measured. RESULTS Microcirculation and blood pressure showed significant improvement during reperfusion after perconditioning. This phenomenon was completely abolished by nerve resection (P < 0.05; RIPER versus IR, IR + denervation, and RIPER + denervation). Results of necrosis quantification showed similar pattern. Besides noncharacteristic changes in aspartate aminotransferase levels, alanine aminotransferase values were significantly lower (P < 0.05) in the RIPER group compared with the other IR groups. Mild but significant alterations were observed in liver function assessed by total bilirubin levels. Further supporting results were obtained from analysis of redox homeostasis. CONCLUSIONS Perconditioning was able to reduce liver IR injury in our model via a mechanism most probably involving interorgan neural pathways.

Abstract
The adaptive response (conditioning) to environmental stressors evokes evolutionarily conserved programs in uni- and multicellular organisms that result in increased fitness and resistance to stressor induced injury. Although the concept of conditioning has been around for a while, its translation into clinical therapies targeting neurovascular diseases has only recently begun. The slow pace of clinical adoption might be partially explained by our poor understanding of underpinning mechanisms and of the complex responses of the organism to the stressor. At the 2(nd) Translational Preconditioning Meeting participants engaged in an intense discussion addressing whether the time has come to more aggressively implement clinical conditioning protocols in the treatment of cerebrovascular diseases or whether it would be better to wait until preclinical data would help to minimize clinical empiricism. This review addresses the complex involvement of biological networks in establishing ischemic tolerance at the organism level using two clinically promising conditioning modalities, namely remote ischemic preconditioning, and per- or post-conditioning, as examples.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is a treatment modality that suppresses inflammation and improves endothelial function, which are factors involved in the pathogenesis of heart failure (HF) with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction. Coronary flow reserve (CFR) is a physiological index of coronary microcirculation and is noninvasively measured by transthoracic Doppler echocardiography (TTDE). This study aimed to investigate the effects of RIC on CFR in healthy subjects and patients with HF, through the assessment by TTDE. METHODS Ten patients with HF with left ventricular ejection fraction of less than 40%, and ten healthy volunteers were enrolled in this study. RIC treatment was performed twice a day for 1 week. Our custom-made RIC device was programmed to automatically conduct 4 cycles of 5 minutes inflation and 5 minutes deflation of a blood pressure cuff to create intermittent arm ischemia. CFR measurements and laboratory tests were examined before, and after 1 week of RIC treatment. RESULTS One week of RIC treatment was well tolerated in both groups. RIC treatment increased CFR from 4.0 ± 0.9 to 4.6 ± 1.3 (mean ± standard deviation) in healthy subjects (P=0.02), and from 1.9 ± 0.4 to 2.3 ± 0.7 in patients with HF (P = 0.03), respectively. Systolic blood pressure in healthy subjects, and heart rate in HF patients decreased after RIC treatment (both P<0.01). CONCLUSION This study demonstrated that a 1 week course of RIC treatment improved coronary microcirculation in healthy subjects and patients with HF associated with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction.

Abstract
Background Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) harnesses an innate defensive mechanism that protects against inflammatory activation and ischemia‐reperfusion injury, known sequelae of cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. We sought to determine the impact of RIPC on clinical outcomes and physiological markers related to ischemia‐reperfusion injury and inflammatory activation after cardiac surgery in children. Methods and Results Overall, 299 children (aged neonate to 17 years) were randomized to receive an RIPC stimulus (inflation of a blood pressure cuff on the left thigh to 15 mm Hg above systolic for four 5‐minute intervals) versus a blinded sham stimulus during induction with a standardized anesthesia protocol. Primary outcome was duration of postoperative hospital stay, with serial clinical and laboratory measurements for the first 48 postoperative hours and clinical follow‐up to discharge. There were no significant baseline differences between RIPC (n=148) and sham (n=151). There were no in‐hospital deaths. No significant difference in length of postoperative hospital stay was noted (sham 5.4 versus RIPC 5.6 days; difference +0.2; adjusted P=0.91), with the 95% confidence interval (−0.7 to +0.9) excluding a prespecified minimal clinically significant differences of 1 or 1.5 days. There were few significant differences in other clinical outcomes or values at time points or trends in physiological markers. Benefit was not observed in specific subgroups when explored through interactions with categories of age, sex, surgery type, Aristotle score, or first versus second half of recruitment. Adverse events were similar (sham 5%, RIPC 6%; P=0.68). Conclusions RIPC is not associated with important improvements in clinical outcomes and physiological markers after cardiac surgery in children. Clinical Trial Registration URL: clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT00650507.

Abstract
Remote ischemic preconditioning (rIPC) induced by cycles of transient limb ischemia and reperfusion is a powerful cardioprotective strategy with additional pleiotropic effects. However, our understanding of its underlying mediators and mechanisms remains incomplete. We examined the role of miR-144 in the cardioprotection induced by rIPC. Microarray studies first established that rIPC increases, and IR injury decreases miR-144 levels in mouse myocardium, the latter being rescued by both rIPC and intravenous administration of miR-144. Going along with this systemic treatment with miR-144 increased P-Akt, P-GSK3β and P-p44/42 MAPK, decreased p-mTOR level and induced autophagy signaling, and induced early and delayed cardioprotection with improved functional recovery and reduction in infarct size similar to that achieved by rIPC. Conversely, systemic administration of a specific antisense oligonucleotide reduced myocardial levels of miR-144 and abrogated cardioprotection by rIPC. We then showed that rIPC increases plasma miR-144 levels in mice and humans, but there was no change in plasma microparticle (50-400 nM) numbers or their miR-144 content. However, there was an almost fourfold increase in miR-144 precursor in the exosome pellet, and a significant increase in miR-144 levels in exosome-poor serum which, in turn, was associated with increased levels of the miR carriage protein Argonaute-2. Systemic release of microRNA 144 plays a pivotal role in the cardioprotection induced by rIPC. Future studies should assess the potential for plasma miR-144 as a biomarker of the effectiveness of rIPC induced by limb ischemia, and whether miR-144 itself may represent a novel therapy to reduce clinical ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) can lead to devastating neurological outcomes, and there are few pharmacologic treatments available for treating this condition. Both animal and human studies provide evidence of inflammation being a driving force behind the pathology of SAH, leading to both direct brain injury and vasospasm, which in turn leads to ischemic brain injury. Several inflammatory mediators that are elevated after SAH have been studied in detail. While there is promising data indicating that blocking these factors might benefit patients after SAH, there has been little success in clinical trials. One of the key factors that complicates clinical trials of SAH is the variability of the initial injury and subsequent inflammatory response. It is likely that both genetic and environmental factors contribute to the variability of patients' post-SAH inflammatory response and that this confounds trials of anti-inflammatory therapies. Additionally, systemic inflammation from other conditions that affect patients with SAH could contribute to brain injury and vasospasm after SAH. Continuing work on biomarkers of inflammation after SAH may lead to development of patient-specific anti-inflammatory therapies to improve outcome after SAH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) protects tissue against ischemia-induced injury inside and outside ischemic areas. The purpose was to examine the hypothesis that daily IPC leads to improvement in endothelial function and skin microcirculation not only in the arm exposed to IPC but also in the contralateral arm. METHODS Thirteen healthy, young, normotensive male individuals (aged 22±2 years) were assigned to 7-day daily exposure of the arm to IPC (4×5 minutes). Assessment of brachial artery endothelial function (using flow-mediated dilation (FMD)) and forearm microcirculation (cutaneous vascular conductance (CVC) at baseline and during local heating) was performed before and after 7 days to examine the local (i.e., intervention arm) and remote (i.e., control arm) effect of IPC. We repeated the assessment tests 8 days after the intervention (Post+8). RESULTS FMD increased after repeated IPC (P = 0.03) and remained significantly elevated at Post+8 in the intervention (5.0±2.2%, 6.1±2.2%, and 6.6±2.3%) and contralateral arms (5.4±2.2%, 6.0±2.2%, and 7.5±2.2%). Forearm CVC also increased following repeated IPC (P = 0.006) and remained elevated at Post+8 in both arms (intervention: 0.12±0.03, 0.14±0.04, 0.16±0.04 mV/mm Hg; contralateral: 0.14±0.04, 0.015±0.04, 0.17±0.07). No interaction between IPC arm and time was evident for FMD and CVC (both P > 0.05). IPC intervention did not alter CVC responses to local heating (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Daily exposure to IPC for 7 days leads to local and remote improvements in brachial artery FMD and resting skin microcirculation that remain after cessation of the intervention and beyond the late phase of protection. These findings may have clinical relevance for micro- and macrovascular improvements.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction is a major cause of death and disability worldwide and myocardial infarct size is a major determinant of prognosis. Early and successful restoration of myocardial reperfusion following an ischemic event is the most effective strategy to reduce final infarct size and improve clinical outcome, but reperfusion may induce further myocardial damage itself. Development of adjunctive therapies to limit myocardial reperfusion injury beyond opening of the coronary artery gains increasing attention. A vast number of experimental studies have shown cardioprotective effects of ischemic and pharmacological conditioning, but despite decades of research, the translation into clinical effects has been challenging. Recently published clinical studies, however, prompt optimism as novel techniques allow for improved clinical applicability. Cyclosporine A, the GLP-1 analogue exenatide and rapid cooling by endovascular infusion of cold saline all reduce infarct size and may confer clinical benefit for patients admitted with acute myocardial infarcts. Equally promising, three follow-up studies of the effect of remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) show clinical prognostic benefit in patients undergoing coronary surgery and percutaneous coronary intervention. The discovery that RIC can be performed noninvasively using a blood pressure cuff on the upper arm to induce brief episodes of limb ischemia and reperfusion has facilitated the translation of RIC into the clinical arena. This review focus on novel advances in adjunctive therapies in relation to acute and elective coronary procedures.

Abstract
Transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) is a serious complication of transfusion medicine, considered now as the leading cause of transfusion-related mortality. It may occur in up to 1 in 5000 transfusions and carries an elevated morbidity and mortality. Clinically it presents as hypoxia and non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema, usually within 6h of transfusion. It consists of an immunological phenomenon involving the activation of neutrophils and endothelial injury, leading to capillary leak and pulmonary edema, mechanisms shared with lung ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury. Brief and repetitive periods of ischemia in an organ or limb have been shown to protect against subsequent major IR injury in distant organs, a phenomenon called remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC). Limb RIP has been shown to protect the lung against IR injury trough modulation of endothelial function as well as neutrophil activation and infiltration. The protective effects of RIPC on the lung have been confirmed in clinical trials of orthopedic and cardiothoracic surgery. RIPC is a safe, tolerable and cheap procedure. I propose that limb RIPC could be used as a preventive strategy against the development of TRALI.

Abstract
Ischemic preconditioning is emerging as an innovative and novel cytoprotective strategy to counter ischemic vascular disease. At the root of the preconditioning response is the upregulation of endogenous defense systems to achieve ischemic tolerance. Identifying suitable biomarkers to show that a preconditioning response has been induced remains a translational research priority. Preconditioning leads to a widespread genomic and proteonomic response with important effects on hemostatic, endothelial, and inflammatory systems. The present article summarizes the relevant preclinical studies defining the mechanisms of preconditioning, reviews how the human preconditioning response has been investigated, and which of these bioresponses could serve as a suitable biomarker. Human preconditioning studies have investigated the effects of preconditioning on coagulation, endothelial factors, and inflammatory mediators as well as on genetic expression and tissue blood flow imaging. A biomarker for preconditioning would significantly contribute to define the optimal preconditioning stimulus and the extent to which such a response can be elicited in humans and greatly aid in dose selection in the design of phase II trials. Given the manifold biologic effects of preconditioning a panel of multiple serum biomarkers or genomic assessments of upstream regulators may most accurately reflect the full spectrum of a preconditioning response.

Abstract
Stroke is deemed a worldwide leading cause of neurological disability and death, however, there is currently no promising pharmacotherapy for acute ischemic stroke aside from intravenous or intra-arterial thrombolysis. Yet because of the narrow therapeutic time window involved, thrombolytic application is very restricted in clinical settings. Accumulating data suggest that non-pharmaceutical therapies for stroke might provide new opportunities for stroke treatment. Here we review recent research progress in the mechanisms and clinical implications of non-pharmaceutical therapies, mainly including neuroprotective approaches such as hypothermia, ischemic/hypoxic conditioning, acupuncture, medical gases and transcranial laser therapy. In addition, we briefly summarize mechanical endovascular recanalization devices and recovery devices for the treatment of the chronic phase of stroke and discuss the relative merits of these devices.

Abstract
Lung injury can arise during or after anesthesia and can lead to a complicated postoperative course with great implications for the patient. Unfortunately, treatment of acute lung injury is at the moment mainly supportive and rates of recovery have not really improved in the recent years. In many cases, lung injury can be anticipated and preventive measures seem possible. This represents a unique challenge to the anesthesiologist, as some new opportunities to reduce the frequency and/or severity of lung injury seem now available. These chances may arise from the potency of preconditioning the lungs before the main injury, with smaller injurious insults. Although preconditioning began to be applicated first on the myocardium, experimental studies have shown potentially beneficial results also for the lungs. This review summarizes the main methods of lung preconditioning that have been tried in experimental studies in the literature and the main mechanisms that are perhaps involved. Emphasis is given in the two main methods of preconditioning that seem readily applicable in the clinical praxis, that is ischemic preconditioning, as well as preconditioning with volatile anesthetics. The few, but interesting clinical studies are also summarized and the future research points in this evolving field of anesthesia are stressed.

Abstract
RATIONALE Remote ischemic preconditioning (rIPC) with short episodes of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) of an organ remote from the heart is a powerful approach to protect against myocardial I/R injury. The signal transduction pathways for the cross talk between the remote site and the heart remain unclear in detail. OBJECTIVE To elucidate the role of circulating nitrite in cardioprotection by rIPC. METHODS AND RESULTS Mice were subjected to 4 cycles of no-flow ischemia with subsequent reactive hyperemia within the femoral region and underwent in vivo myocardial I/R (30 minutes/5 minutes or 24 hours). The mouse experiments were conducted using genetic and pharmacological approaches. Shear stress-dependent stimulation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase within the femoral artery during reactive hyperemia yielded substantial release of nitric oxide, subsequently oxidized to nitrite and transferred humorally to the myocardium. Within the heart, reduction of nitrite to nitric oxide by cardiac myoglobin and subsequent S-nitrosation of mitochondrial membrane proteins reduced mitochondrial respiration, reactive oxygen species formation, and myocardial infarct size. Pharmacological and genetic inhibition of nitric oxide/nitrite generation by endothelial nitric oxide synthase at the remote site or nitrite bioactivation by myoglobin within the target organ abrogated the cardioprotection by rIPC. Transfer experiments of plasma from healthy volunteers subjected to rIPC of the arm identified plasma nitrite as a cardioprotective agent in isolated Langendorff mouse heart preparations exposed to I/R. CONCLUSIONS Circulating nitrite derived from shear stress-dependent stimulation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase at the remote site of rIPC contributes to cardioprotection during I/R.

Abstract
Stressor-induced tolerance is a central mechanism in the response of bacteria, plants, and animals to potentially harmful environmental challenges. This response is characterized by immediate changes in cellular metabolism and by the delayed transcriptional activation or inhibition of genetic programs that are not generally stressor specific (cross-tolerance). These programs are aimed at countering the deleterious effects of the stressor. While induction of this response (preconditioning) can be established at the cellular level, activation of systemic networks is essential for the protection to occur throughout the organs of the body. This is best signified by the phenomenon of remote ischemic preconditioning, whereby application of ischemic stress to one tissue or organ induces ischemic tolerance (IT) in remote organs through humoral, cellular and neural signaling. The immune system is an essential component in cerebral IT acting simultaneously both as mediator and target. This dichotomy is based on the fact that activation of inflammatory pathways is necessary to establish IT and that IT can be, in part, attributed to a subdued immune activation after index ischemia. Here we describe the components of the immune system required for induction of IT and review the mechanisms by which a reprogrammed immune response contributes to the neuroprotection observed after preconditioning. Learning how local and systemic immune factors participate in endogenous neuroprotection could lead to the development of new stroke therapies.

Abstract
Over the last quarter of a century, a huge effort has been made to develop interventions that can minimise ischaemia reperfusion injury. The most potent of these are the ischaemic conditioning strategies, which comprise ischaemic preconditioning, remote ischaemic preconditioning and ischaemic postconditioning. While much of the focus for these interventions has been on protecting the myocardium, other organs including the kidney can be similarly protected. However, translation of these beneficial effects from animal models into routine clinical practice has been less straightforward than expected. In this review, we examine the role of ischaemic conditioning strategies in reducing tissue injury from the 'bench to the bedside' and discuss the barriers to their greater translation.

Abstract
Remote ischemic preconditioning’s (RIPC) ability to render the myocardium resistant to subsequent prolonged ischemia is now clearly established in different species, including humans. Strong evidence suggests that circulating humoral mediators play a key role in signal transduction, but their identities still need to be established. Our study sought to identify potential circulating RIPC mediators using a proteomic approach. Rats were exposed to 10-min limb ischemia followed by 5- (RIPC 5′) or 10-min (RIPC 10′) reperfusion prior to blood sampling. The control group only underwent blood sampling. Plasma samples were isolated for proteomic analysis using surface-enhanced laser desorption and ionization - time of flight - mass spectrometry (SELDI-TOF-MS). A total of seven proteins, including haptoglobin and transthyretin, were detected as up- or down-regulated in response to RIPC. These proteins had previously been identified as associated with organ protection, anti-inflammation, and various cellular and molecular responses to ischemia. In conclusion, this study indicates that RIPC results in significant modulations of plasma proteome.

Abstract
There is currently no effective prophylactic regimen available to prevent contrast-induced AKI (CI-AKI), a frequent and life-threatening complication after cardiac catheterization. Therefore, novel treatment strategies are required to decrease CI-AKI incidence and to improve clinical outcomes in these patients. Remote ischemic preconditioning (rIPC), defined as transient brief episodes of ischemia at a remote site before a subsequent prolonged ischemia/reperfusion injury of the target organ, is an adaptational response that protects against ischemic and reperfusion insult. Indeed, several studies demonstrated the tissue-protective effects of rIPC in various target organs, including the kidneys. In this regard, rIPC may offer a novel noninvasive and virtually cost-free treatment strategy for decreasing CI-AKI incidence. This review evaluates the current experimental and clinical evidence for rIPC as a potential renoprotective strategy, and discusses the underlying mechanisms and key areas for future research.

Abstract
The protective mechanism underlying remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) is unclear. This study aims to verify whether the protein expression profile in the serum could be altered by RIPC and to detect potential protein mediators. Transient limb ischemia consisting of three cycles of 5-min ischemia followed by 5-min reperfusion was performed on sixty healthy volunteers. Serum samples were collected at 30 min before transient limb ischemia and at 1 hour (h), 3 h, 8 h, 24 h, and 48 h after completion of three cycles. Changes in the serum protein profile were analyzed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and proteins were identified by MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometry. Fourteen differentially expressed proteins were identified and, respectively, involved in immune system, lipid binding and metabolism, apoptosis, and blood coagulation. Complement C3, vitronectin, and apolipoprotein A-I were further confirmed by western blotting, and the results showed that their contents decreased significantly after transient limb ischemia. It is concluded that transient limb ischemia alters the serum protein expression profile in human being, and that reduction of serum contents of complement C3 and vitronectin may represent an important part of the mechanism whereby RIPC confers its protection.

Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion is a major determinant of myocardial impairment in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. The main goal of research in cardioprotection is to develop effective techniques to avoid ischemia-reperfusion lesions. Myocardial ischemic conditioning is a powerful endogenous cardioprotective phenomenon. First described in animals in 1986, myocardial ischemic conditioning consists of applying increased tolerance of the myocardium to sustained ischemia by exposing it to brief episodes of ischemia-reperfusion. Several studies have sought to demonstrate its effective cardioprotective action in humans and to understand its underlying mechanisms. Myocardial ischemic conditioning has two forms: ischemic preconditioning (IPC) when the conditioning stimulus is applied before the index ischemia and ischemic postconditioning when the conditioning stimulus is applied after it. The cardioprotective action of ischemic conditioning was reproduced by applying the ischemia-reperfusion stimulus to organs remote from the heart. This non-invasive manner of applying ischemic conditioning has led to its application in clinical settings. Clinical trials for the different forms of ischemic conditioning were mainly developed in cardiac surgery. Many studies suggest that this phenomenon can represent an interesting adjuvant to classical cardioprotection during on-pump cardiac surgery. Ischemic conditioning was also tested in interventional cardiology with interesting results. Finally, advances made in the understanding of mechanisms that underlie the cardioprotective action of ischemic conditioning have paved the way to a new form of myocardial conditioning which is pharmacological conditioning.

BACKGROUND Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) is the application of a transient and brief ischemic stimulus to a distant site from the organ or tissue that is afterward exposed to injury ischemia, and has been found to reduce ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) in various animal models. RIPC appears to offer two distinct phases of endothelial IRI protection, which are presumably mediated through neuronal and humoral pathways. METHODS We conducted a comprehensive literature review on the available published data about the potential effect of RIPC in patients undergoing IRI in one or more vital organs. RESULTS Our search highlighted 24 randomized clinical trials about the effect of RIPC on variable clinical settings (abdominal aortic aneurysm repair, open heart surgery, percutaneous coronary intervention, living donor renal transplantation, coronary angiography, elective decompression surgery, carotid endarterectomy, recent stroke, or transient ischemic attack combined with intracranial carotid artery stenosis). Most of the trials focused on postoperative cardiac or renal function after RIPC with conflicting results. Preconditioning protocols, age limits, comorbidities, and concomitant drug use varied significantly across trials, and therefore no firm conclusions can be drawn using the available data. However, no severe local adverse events were observed in any patient undergoing limb or arm preconditioning. CONCLUSIONS RIPC is a safe and well-tolerated procedure that may constitute a potentially promising innovative treatment in atherosclerotic diseases. Large, multicenter, randomized clinical trials are required to determine an optimal protocol for the RIPC procedure, and to evaluate further the potential benefits of RIPC in human ischemic injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ischemia and reperfusion injury is critical in allograft vasculopathy (AV) development. We have shown that neutrophil-mediated medial smooth muscle cell (SMC) loss precedes AV and that prolonged cold ischemia (CI) impairs medial SMC recovery and accelerates AV development. We hypothesize that neutrophils (NØs) are responsible for failed medial SMC recovery that precedes AV. METHODS Aortic transplants were performed between fully disparate C3H/HeJ murine donors and wild-type C57BL/6 (WT B6), B6.129S7-Rag1 (Rag1(-/-); intact innate but no adaptive immunity), and B6.129S-Cybb (NOX2(-/-); NØ loss-of-function) recipients under cyclosporine A immunosuppression. Grafts were exposed to 20 or 60 minutes CI before transplant and harvested at 1 day, 2 weeks, and 8 weeks after transplant. Some WT B6 recipients were treated with remote ischemic pre-conditioning (rIPC). Grafts were assessed for medial SMCs, NØs, and lesion area. RESULTS The 60-minute vs 20-minute CI grafts exhibited reduced SMC recovery at 2 weeks in WT B6 and Rag1(-/-) recipients (WT B6: p = 0.0009; Rag1(-/-): p = 0.0006). NØ influx was greater in Rag1(-/-) recipients of 60-minute vs 20-minute CI grafts at 1 day (p = 0.0002). The difference in 2-week medial SMC recovery between ischemia groups was abrogated in NOX2(-/-) recipients. At 8 weeks, NOX2(-/-) and rIPC recipients of 60-minute CI grafts exhibited smaller neointimal lesions than B6 recipients (NOX2(-/-): p = 0.0009; rIPC: p = 0.0005). CONCLUSIONS Impaired medial SMC recovery in murine aortic allografts at 2 weeks occurs in the absence of adaptive immunity. Enhanced medial SMC recovery and reduced neointimal lesion formation in NOX2(-/-) and rIPC recipients of 60-minute CI grafts suggest a causal role for NØs in impaired medial SMC repopulation and the development of AV.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine whether remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) reduces myocardial injury, mortality, morbidity, and resource utilization in cardiac surgery. DESIGN Meta-analysis of controlled clinical trials. The primary outcome was cardiac troponin I (cTnI) concentrations. Secondary outcomes included cardiac troponin T (cTnT) concentrations, myocardial infarction, stroke, renal failure requiring hemodialysis, atrial fibrillation, inotropic score, mechanical ventilation time, length of intensive care unit stay, length of hospital stay, and death. SETTING University hospitals. PATIENTS Adult and pediatric patients undergoing cardiac surgery, including coronary artery bypass grafting, valve procedures, and correction of congenital cardiac anomalies. INTERVENTIONS Remote ischemic preconditioning through limb ischemia. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Nineteen randomized trials involving 1,235 patients were included in the meta-analysis. The cTnI concentrations at 6 (or 4-8) hours postoperatively and the total cTnI released after surgery showed a statistically significant reduction in the RIPC group compared with a control group (weighted mean difference [WMD] -2.03 ug/L, 95% confidence interval [CI] -3.25 to -0.82 ug/L, p = 0.001; WMD -65.74 ug/L*h, 95% CI -107.88 to -23.61 ug/L*h, p = 0.002, respectively). There were no differences in mortality, morbidity, and resource utilization between groups. CONCLUSIONS Current evidence suggests that RIPC reduces cardiac troponin I release in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. The clinical significance of these observations merits further investigation.

Abstract
Ischemic brain injury is not uncommon after open-heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass and seriously undermines the patients' life quality. Therefore, potential protective effects of limb ischemic preconditioning (LIP) on subsequent ischemic injury of the brain were investigated by evaluating anti-inflammatory effects and apoptosis of pyramidal neurons in the CA1 hippocampus. One hundred and eight Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into the middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) group (n=54) and the LIP group (n=54). A thread was used to occlude the middle cerebral artery in the MCAO group and the LIP group animals were pretreated with LIP followed by MCAO. In the two groups, nine samples were collected at each time-point of 0, 6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 h after MCAO to detect IL-6 and IL-17 and their mRNA levels. Neurological severity scores (NSS) were examined before the animals were sacrificed. Compared with the LIP group, cerebral histopathological changes in the MCAO group were most distinct and significantly more infiltrated inflammatory and apoptotic neuronal cells were observed at 24, 48 and 72 h post-surgery. IL-17 and IL-6 mRNA levels analyzed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) (qRT-PCR) were significantly reduced in the LIP group compared with the MCAO group at the 12, 24 and 48 h time-points. A significant reduction in IL-17 expression level was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in the LIP group at 12, 24 and 48 h, while IL-6 was significantly reduced at the 24 and 48 h time-points. The NSSs were not significantly different between the groups. Therefore, in a MCAO rat model, we have proved that LIP pretreatment can protect the brain from infarction after ischemic injury and induce ischemic tolerance, potentially, by reducing IL-17 to provide anti-inflammatory effects and attenuate apoptosis of hippocampal neuronal cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) is shown to preserve kidney function in patients at high risk of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI), the effect in patients at low-moderate risk remains unknown. The preventive effects of RIPC in patients not at high risk of CI-AKI were examined, and biomarkers with anticipated roles in renal protection via RIPC investigated. METHODS AND RESULTS Sixty patients who had moderate chronic kidney disease and who underwent angiography were randomly assigned to the control (n=30) or RIPC (intermittent arm ischemia, n=30) group. The baseline characteristics in the 2 groups did not differ significantly. CI-AKI was evaluated by measuring urinary liver-type fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP). Biomarkers were measured before and 24 and 48 h after angiography. Twenty-four hours after angiography, the percent change in urinary L-FABP level in the RIPC group was significantly smaller than in the control group (41.3±15.6 vs. 159±34.1%, P=0.003). L-FABP-based CI-AKI developed in 8 control patients (26.9%) vs. only 2 patients in the RIPC group (7.7%), suggesting that RIPC prevents CI-AKI. Factors contributing to CI-AKI were analyzed. Neither high-sensitivity C-reactive protein nor pentraxine-3 level differed significantly between the 2 groups, while the percent change in asymmetrical dimethy larginine (ADMA) level and blood derivatives of reactive oxidative metabolite levels were significantly smaller in the RIPC group. CONCLUSIONS RIPC alleviates CI-AKI in patients at low-moderate risk. This effect might be mediated partly by decreasing oxidative stress and plasma ADMA level.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Remote ischaemic preconditioning (RIPC) may protect distant organs against ischaemia-reperfusion injury. We investigated the impact of RIPC on kinin receptor expression in neutrophils following RIPC in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). METHODS Patients undergoing elective CABG with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) were randomized to RIPC (n = 15) or control (n = 15) groups. The study group underwent RIPC by inflation of a blood pressure cuff on the arm. Expression of kinin receptors, plasma concentrations of IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, TNF-α and neutrophil elastase were determined at baseline (before RIPC/sham), immediately before surgery (after RIPC/sham) and 30 min and 24 h after surgery. Plasma bradykinin levels were assessed before and after RIPC/sham, and at 30 min, 6, 12 and 24 h after surgery. Serum creatine kinase (CK), troponin I, C-reactive protein (CRP) and lactate levels were measured immediately prior to surgery and 30 min, 6, 12, 24 and 48 h after surgery. RESULTS Kinin B2 receptor expression did not differ between the groups at baseline (pre-RIPC), but was significantly lower in the RIPC group than in the control group after RIPC/sham (P < 0.05). Expressions of both kinin B1 and B2 receptors were significantly down-regulated in the RIPC group, and this persisted to 24 h after surgery (P < 0.001). Neutrophil elastase levels were significantly increased after surgery. There were no differences in CK, CRP, cytokine, lactate or troponin I levels between the groups. CONCLUSIONS RIPC down-regulated the expression of kinin B1 and B2 receptors in neutrophils of patients undergoing CABG.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is associated with myocardial necrosis, as evidenced by troponin release, in approximately one-third of cases. This is known to be linked with subsequent cardiovascular events. This study assessed the ability of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) to attenuate cardiac troponin T (cTnT) release after elective PCI. OBJECTIVE Evaluation of effect of RIPC on myocardial markers following elective PCI. METHODS One hundred and forty nine consecutive patients undergoing elective PCI with undetectable preprocedural cTnT were recruited. Subjects were randomized to receive RIPC (induced by three 5-min inflations of a blood pressure cuff to 200 mm Hg around the upper arm, followed by 5-min intervals of reperfusion) or control (cuff deflated) immediately before arrival in the cardiac catheterization room. The primary outcome was cTnT level at approximately 16 hr after PCI. Secondary outcomes included occurrence of postprocedural myocardial infarction (MI), CKMB levels at 16 hr after PCI and assessment of the inflammatory response as measured by C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. RESULTS The mean cTnT at 16 hr after PCI was lower in the RIPC group compared with the control group. (0.020 vs. 0.047 ng/ml; P = 0.047) Occurrence of postprocedural MI, CKMB and CRP levels did not differ in both groups (P = 0.097, 0.537, and 0.481 respectively). CONCLUSION The use of RIPC immediately prior to PCI attenuates procedure-related cTnT release and does not affect occurrence of post procedural MI, CKMB, or CRP levels.

Abstract
Background Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) has been shown to enhance the tolerance of remote organs to cope with a subsequent ischemic event. We hypothesized that RIPC reduces postoperative neurocognitive dysfunction (POCD) in patients undergoing complex cardiac surgery. Methods We conducted a prospective, randomized, double-blind, controlled trial including 180 adult patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. Patients were randomized either to RIPC or to control group. Primary endpoint was postoperative neurocognitive dysfunction 5–7 days after surgery assessed by a comprehensive test battery. Cognitive change was assumed if the preoperative to postoperative difference in 2 or more tasks assessing different cognitive domains exceeded more than one SD (1 SD criterion) or if the combined Z score was 1.96 or greater (Z score criterion). Results According to 1 SD criterion, 52% of control and 46% of RIPC patients had cognitive deterioration 5–7 days after surgery (p = 0.753). The summarized Z score showed a trend to more cognitive decline in the control group (2.16±5.30) compared to the RIPC group (1.14±4.02; p = 0.228). Three months after surgery, incidence and severity of neurocognitive dysfunction did not differ between control and RIPC. RIPC tended to decrease postoperative troponin T release at both 12 hours [0.60 (0.19–1.94) µg/L vs. 0.48 (0.07–1.84) µg/L] and 24 hours after surgery [0.36 (0.14–1.89) µg/L vs. 0.26 (0.07–0.90) µg/L]. Conclusions We failed to demonstrate efficacy of a RIPC protocol with respect to incidence and severity of POCD and secondary outcome variables in patients undergoing a wide range of cardiac surgery. Therefore, definitive large-scale multicenter trials are needed. Trial Registration ClinicalTrials.gov NCT00877305

Abstract
BACKGROUND Our previous randomized controlled trial demonstrated cardiorespiratory protection by remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) in children before cardiac surgery. However, the impact of RIPC on myocardial prosurvival intracellular signaling remains unknown in cyanosis. RIPC may augment phosphorylated protein signaling in myocardium and circulating leukocytes during tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) repair. METHODS AND RESULTS Children (n=40) undergoing ToF repair were double-blind randomized to RIPC (n=11 boys, 9 girls) or control (sham RIPC: n=9 boys, 11 girls). Blood samples were taken before, immediately after, and 24 hours after cardiopulmonary bypass. Resected right ventricular outflow tract muscle and leukocytes were processed for protein expression and mitochondrial respiration. There was no difference in age (7.1 ± 3.4 versus 7.1 ± 3.4 months), weight (7.7 ± 1.8 versus 7.5 ± 1.9 kg), or bypass or aortic cross-clamp times between the groups (control versus RIPC, mean±SD). No differences were seen between the groups for an increase in the ratio of phosphorylated to total protein for protein kinase B, p38 mitogen activated protein kinase, signal transducer and activator of transcription 3, glycogen synthase kinase 3β, heat shock protein 27, Connexin43, or markers associated with promotion of necrosis (serum cardiac troponin I), apoptosis (Bax, Bcl-2), and autophagy (Parkin, Beclin-1, LC3B). A high proportion of total proteins were in phosphorylated form in control and RIPC myocardium. In leukocytes, mitochondrial respiration and assessed protein levels did not differ between groups. CONCLUSIONS In patients with cyanotic heart disease, a high proportion of proteins are in phosphorylated form. RIPC does not further enhance phosphorylated protein signaling in myocardium or circulating leukocytes in children undergoing ToF repair.

Abstract
Early and successful restoration of myocardial reperfusion following an ischemic event is the most effective strategy to reduce final infarct size and improve clinical outcome. However, revascularization per se may induce further myocardial damage by myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury and worsen clinical outcome. Therefore, new therapeutic strategies are required to protect the myocardium against ischemia-reperfusion injury in patients with coronary artery disease. Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) by brief nonlethal episodes of ischemia and reperfusion to an organ or tissue remote from the heart activates innate cardioprotective mechanisms. The discovery that RIC can be performed noninvasively using a blood pressure cuff on the upper arm to induce brief episodes of limb ischemia and reperfusion has facilitated the translation of RIC into the clinical arena. Whereas some trials have shown contradictory results, recently published proof-of-concept clinical studies have reported encouraging results with RIC. Large-scale multicenter clinical trials are needed to establish the role of RIC in the current clinical practice. At present, the use of RIC in acute coronary syndromes seems particularly attractive due to its potential in-ambulance application and apparent dramatic reduction in infarct size in the patients with the largest infarcts. Cardiac arrest and stroke represent ischemia-reperfusion disorders where RIC has further potential to improve outcome beyond rapid revascularization alone.

Abstract
It has recently been hypothesized that a sub-lethal ischemic insult induced in one organ is able to protect from a harmful ischemia occurring in a different organ. The objective of this study is to identify new putative mechanisms of neuroprotection elicited by remote ischemic femoral postconditioning. A 50% reduction in the infarct volume was observed when 100min of middle cerebral artery occlusion was followed, 10min later, by the remote postconditioning stimulus represented by 20min of femoral artery occlusion. The use of in vivo silencing strategy allowed to demonstrate that NO production through nNOS mediates part of the neuroprotection. Indeed, whereas CNS nNOS expression was up-regulated by remote postconditioning, the pharmacological inhibition of nNOS or its silencing-mediated knocking-down partially prevented this neuroprotective effect. This nNOS overexpression seemed to be p-ERK dependent. In fact, p-ERK expression increased in brain cortex after remote postconditioning, and its pharmacological inhibition prevented both nNOS overexpression and remote postconditioning-mediated neuroprotection. Interestingly, neuroprotection induced by remote postconditioning was partially prevented when ganglion transmission was pharmacologically interrupted by hexamethonium, thus showing that neural factors are involved in this phenomenon. Collectively, the present study demonstrates that p-ERK and nNOS take part to the complex cascade of events triggered by ischemic remote postconditioning.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Several techniques have been developed to reduce ischemic-reperfusion injury. A novel method is the remote ischemic perconditioning, applied parallel with target organ ischemia. AIM The aim of the study was to determine the extent of liver ischemic-reperfusion injury via the application of this novel method. METHODS Male Wistar rats (n = 30, 10/group) were subjected to 60-minute partial liver ischemia and 60-minute reperfusion. Rats in the perconditioned group received conditioning treatment during the last 40 minutes of liver ischemia by infrarenal aortic clamping. Hepatic and lower limb microcirculation was monitored by laser Doppler flowmeter during reperfusion. After reperfusion, liver samples were taken for routine histological examination and redox-state assessment. Serum transaminase activities and liver tissue heat-shock protein-72 expression were measured. RESULTS Parameters of microcirculation showed significant (p<0.05) improvement in the perconditioned group in comparison with the control. Besides the significant improvement observed in the serum alanine amino-transferase activities, significantly milder tissue injury was detected histologically in the liver sections of the perconditioned group. Moreover, significant improvement was found in the redox-state parameters. CONCLUSION Perconditioning may be a reasonable possibility to reduce liver ischemic-reperfusion injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the lung-protective effect of combined remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPCpre) and postconditioning (RIPCpost) in patients undergoing complex valvular heart surgery. METHODS In this randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial, 54 patients were assigned to an RIPCpre plus RIPCpost group or a control group (1:1). Patients in the RIPCpre plus RIPCpost group received three 10-min cycles of right-side lower-limb ischemia of 250 mm Hg at both 10 min after anesthetic induction and weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass. The primary end point was to compare postoperative Pao(2)/Fio(2). Secondary end points were to compare pulmonary variables, incidence of acute lung injury, and inflammatory cytokines. RESULTS In both groups, Pao(2)/Fio(2) at 24 h postoperation was significantly decreased compared with each corresponding baseline value. However, intergroup comparisons of pulmonary variables, including Pao(2)/Fio(2) and incidence of acute lung injury, revealed no significant differences. Serum levels of IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, and tumor necrosis factor-α were all significantly increased in both groups compared with each corresponding baseline value, without any significant intergroup differences. There were also no significant differences in transpulmonary gradient of IL-6, IL-10, and tumor necrosis factor-α between the groups. CONCLUSIONS RIPCpre plus RIPCpost as tested in this randomized controlled trial did not provide significant pulmonary benefit following complex valvular cardiac surgery.

Abstract
AIMS Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is frequently accompanied by myocardial injury. The present study was performed to determine whether remote ischemic preconditioning (IP) induces cardioprotection during PCI. METHODS We enrolled 95 patients requiring nonemergency PCI for stable disease or unstable angina into this prospective clinical trial. Patients were randomized to either remote IP (induced by three 3-min cycles of blood pressure cuff inflations to 200 mm Hg around the upper arm, followed by 3-min of reperfusion n = 47) or sham control (n = 48) immediately preceding PCI. The primary outcome measure was the frequency of post-PCI myonecrosis, defined as a peak postprocedural cTnT T ≥ 0.03 ng/dL. Secondary outcome measures were the change in plasma high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) levels following PCI and in endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) counts following IP. RESULTS There was no difference in the primary endpoint of the frequency of PCI related myonecrosis which occurred in 22 (47%) and 19 (40%) patients in the remote IP and control groups, respectively, P = 0.42. There was significant increase in hsCRP post-PCI in both groups (P < 0.001), but there was no difference between the groups (median %change in hsCRP 46% vs. 54%, P = 0.73). There was no significant change in circulating early (CD34 -/CD133+/KDR+), intermediate (CD34+/CD133+/KDR+), or late (CD34+/CD133-/KDR+) EPC in the two groups immediately following IP. The composite rate of death, myocardial infarction, and target lesion revascularization at 1 year was 14.1% versus 13.7% (P = 0.90). CONCLUSIONS Our study indicates that remote IP immediately before PCI does not induce cardioprotection in low to moderate risk patients.

Abstract
Remote Ischemic Preconditioning (RIPC) induced by brief episodes of ischemia of the limb protects against multi-organ damage by ischemia-reperfusion (IR). Although it has been demonstrated that RIPC affects gene expression, the proteomic response to RIPC has not been determined. This study aimed to examine RIPC induced changes in the plasma proteome. Five healthy adult volunteers had 4 cycles of 5 min ischemia alternating with 5 min reperfusion of the forearm. Blood samples were taken from the ipsilateral arm prior to first ischaemia, immediately after each episode of ischemia as well as, at 15 min and 24 h after the last episode of ischemia. Plasma samples from five individuals were analysed using two complementary techniques. Individual samples were analysed using 2Dimensional Difference in gel electrophoresis (2D DIGE) and mass spectrometry (MS). Pooled samples for each of the time-points underwent trypsin digestion and peptides generated were analysed in triplicate using Liquid Chromatography and MS (LC-MS). Six proteins changed in response to RIPC using 2D DIGE analysis, while 48 proteins were found to be differentially regulated using LC-MS. The proteins of interest were involved in acute phase response signalling, and physiological molecular and cellular functions. The RIPC stimulus modifies the plasma protein content in blood taken from the ischemic arm in a cumulative fashion and evokes a proteomic response in peripheral blood.

Abstract
Remote ischemic conditioning (RCond) induced by short periods of ischemia and reperfusion of an organ or tissue before myocardial reperfusion is an attractive strategy of cardioprotection in the context of acute myocardial infarction. Nonetheless, its mechanism remains unknown. A humoral factor appears to be involved, although its identity is currently unknown. We hypothesized that the circulating microparticles (MPs) are the link between the remote tissue and the heart. MPs from rats and healthy humans undergoing RCond were characterized. In rats, RCond was induced by 10 min of limb ischemia. In humans, RCond was induced by three cycles of 5-min inflation and 5-min deflation of a blood-pressure cuff. In the second part of the study, rats underwent 40 min myocardial ischemia followed by 2 h reperfusion. Infarct size was measured and compared among three groups of rats: 1) myocardial infarction alone (MI) ( n = 6); 2) MI + RCond started 20 min after coronary ligation ( n = 6); and 3) MI + injection of RCond-derived rat MPs (MI + MPs) ( n = 5). MPs from endothelial cells (CD54+ and CD146+ for rats and humans, respectively) and procoagulant MPs (Annexin V+) markedly increased after RCond, both in rats and humans. RCond reduced infarct size (24.4 ± 5.9% in MI + RCond vs. 54.6 ± 4.7% in MI alone; P < 0.01). Infarct size did not decrease in MI + MPs compared with MI alone (50.2 ± 6.4% vs. 54.6 ± 4.7%, not significantly different). RCond increased endothelium-derived and procoagulant MPs in both rats and humans. However, MP release did not appear to be a biological vector of RCond in our model.
