Abstract
Remote ischemic conditioning is the phenomenon whereby brief, nonlethal episodes of ischemia in one organ (such as a limb) protect a remote organ from ischemic necrosis induced by a longer duration of severe ischemia followed by reperfusion. This phenomenon has been reproduced by dozens of experimental laboratories and was shown to reduce the size of myocardial infarction in many but not all clinical studies. In one recent large clinical trial, remote ischemic conditioning induced by repetitive blood pressure cuff inflations on the arm did not reduce infarct size or improve clinical outcomes. This negative result may have been related in part to the overall success of early reperfusion and current adjunctive therapies, such as antiplatelet therapy, antiremodeling therapies, and low-risk patients, that may make it difficult to show any advantage of newer adjunctive therapies on top of existing therapies. One relevant area in which current outcomes are not as positive as in the treatment of heart attack is the treatment of shock, where mortality rates remain high. Recent experimental studies show that remote ischemic conditioning may improve survival and organ function in shock states, especially hemorrhagic shock and septic shock. In this study, we review the preclinical studies that have explored the potential benefit of this therapy for shock states and describe an ongoing clinical study.

Abstract
Despite improved treatment options myocardial infarction (MI) is still a leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) is a mechanistic process that reduces myocardial infarction size and protects against ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury. The zinc finger transcription factor early growth response-1 (Egr-1) is integral to the biological response to I/R, as its upregulation mediates the increased expression of inflammatory and prothrombotic processes. We aimed to determine the association and/or role of Egr-1 expression with the molecular mechanisms controlling the cardioprotective effects of RIPC. This study used H9C2 cells in vitro and a rat model of cardiac ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury. We silenced Egr-1 with DNAzyme (ED5) in vitro and in vivo, before three cycles of RIPC consisting of alternating 5 min hypoxia and normoxia in cells or hind-limb ligation and release in the rat, followed by hypoxic challenge in vitro and I/R injury in vivo. Post-procedure, ED5 administration led to a significant increase in infarct size compared to controls (65.90 ± 2.38% vs. 41.00 ± 2.83%, p < 0.0001) following administration prior to RIPC in vivo, concurrent with decreased plasma IL-6 levels (118.30 ± 4.30 pg/ml vs. 130.50 ± 1.29 pg/ml, p < 0.05), downregulation of the cardioprotective JAK-STAT pathway, and elevated myocardial endothelial dysfunction. In vitro, ED5 administration abrogated IL-6 mRNA expression in H9C2 cells subjected to RIPC (0.95 ± 0.20 vs. 6.08 ± 1.40-fold relative to the control group, p < 0.05), resulting in increase in apoptosis (4.76 ± 0.70% vs. 2.23 ± 0.34%, p < 0.05) and loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (0.57 ± 0.11% vs. 1.0 ± 0.14%-fold relative to control, p < 0.05) in recipient cells receiving preconditioned media from the DNAzyme treated donor cells. This study suggests that Egr-1 functions as a master regulator of remote preconditioning inducing a protective effect against myocardial I/R injury through IL-6-dependent JAK-STAT signaling.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is a noninvasive therapeutic strategy that uses brief cycles of blood pressure cuff inflation and deflation to protect the myocardium against ischemia-reperfusion injury. We sought to compare major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) for patients who received RIC before PCI for ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) compared with standard care. METHODS We conducted a pre- and postimplementation study. In the preimplementation phase, STEMI patients were taken directly to the PCI lab. After implementation, STEMI patients received 4 cycles of RIC by paramedics or emergency department staff before PCI. The primary outcome was MACE at 90 days. Secondary outcomes included MACE at 30, 60, and 180 days. Inverse probability of treatment weighting using propensity scores estimated causal effects independent from baseline covariables. RESULTS A total of 1667 (866 preimplementation, 801 postimplementation) patients were included. In the preimplementation phase, 13.4% had MACE at 90 days compared with 11.8% in the postimplementation phase (odds ratio [OR] 0.86, 95% CI 0.62-1.21). There were no significant differences in MACE at 30, 60, and 180 days. Patients presenting with cardiogenic shock or cardiac arrest before PCI were less likely to have MACE at 90 days (42.7% pre vs 27.8% post) if they received RIC before PCI (OR 0.52, 95% CI 0.27-0.98). CONCLUSIONS A strategy of RIC before PCI for STEMI did not reduce 90-day MACE. Future research should explore the impact of RIC before PCI for longer-term clinical outcomes and for patients presenting with cardiogenic shock or cardiac arrest.

Abstract
Guidelines recommend treatment with a P2Y12 platelet adenosine diphosphate receptor inhibitor in patients undergoing elective or urgent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), but the optimal agent or timing of administration is still not clearly specified. The P2Y12 inhibitor was initially used for its platelet anti-aggregatory action to block thrombosis of the recanalized coronary artery or deployed stent. It is now recognized that these agents also offer potent cardioprotection against a reperfusion injury that occurs in the first minutes of reperfusion if platelet aggregation is blocked at the time of reperfusion. But this is difficult to achieve with oral agents which are slowly absorbed and often require time-consuming metabolic activation. Patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction who usually have a large mass of myocardium at risk of infarction seldom have sufficient time for upstream-administered oral agents to achieve a therapeutic P2Y12 level of inhibition by the time of balloon inflation. However, optimal treatment could be assured by initiating an IV cangrelor infusion shortly prior to stenting followed by subsequent post-PCI transition to an oral agent, that is, ticagrelor, once success of the recanalization and absence of need for surgical intervention are confirmed. Not only should this sequence provide optimal protection against infarction, it should also negate bleeding if coronary artery bypass grafting should be required since stopping the cangrelor infusion at any time will quickly restore platelet reactivity. It is anticipated that cangrelor-induced myocardial salvage will help preserve myocardial function and significantly diminish postinfarction heart failure.

Abstract
Ischemic diseases in an aging population pose a heavy social encumbrance. Moreover, current therapeutic approaches, which aimed to prevent or minimize ischemia-induced damage, are associated with relevant costs for healthcare systems. Early reperfusion by primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) has undoubtedly improved patient's outcomes; however, the prevention of long-term complications is still an unmet need. To face these hurdles and improve patient's outcomes, novel pharmacological and interventional approaches, alone or in combination, reducing myocardium oxygen consumption or supplying blood flow via collateral vessels have been proposed. A number of clinical trials are ongoing to validate their efficacy on patient's outcomes. Alternative options, including stem cell-based therapies, have been evaluated to improve cardiac regeneration and prevent scar formation. However, due to the lack of long-term engraftment, more recently, great attention has been devoted to their paracrine mediators, including exosomes (Exo) and microvesicles (MV). Indeed, Exo and MV are both currently considered to be one of the most promising therapeutic strategies in regenerative medicine. As a matter of fact, MV and Exo that are released from stem cells of different origin have been evaluated for their healing properties in ischemia reperfusion (I/R) settings. Therefore, this review will first summarize mechanisms of cardiac damage and protection after I/R damage to track the paths through which more appropriate interventional and/or molecular-based targeted therapies should be addressed. Moreover, it will provide insights on novel non-invasive/invasive interventional strategies and on Exo-based therapies as a challenge for improving patient's long-term complications. Finally, approaches for improving Exo healing properties, and topics still unsolved to move towards Exo clinical application will be discussed.

Abstract
Remote ischemic conditioning has been investigated for cardioprotection to attenuate myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. In this review, we provide a comprehensive overview of the current knowledge of the signal transduction pathways of remote ischemic conditioning according to three stages: Remote stimulus from source organ; protective signal transfer through neuronal and humoral factors; and target organ response, including myocardial response and coronary vascular response. The neuronal and humoral factors interact on three levels, including stimulus, systemic, and target levels. Subsequently, we reviewed the clinical studies evaluating the cardioprotective effect of remote ischemic conditioning. While clinical studies of percutaneous coronary intervention showed relatively consistent protective effects, the majority of multicenter studies of cardiac surgery reported neutral results although there have been several promising initial trials. Failure to translate the protective effects of remote ischemic conditioning into cardiac surgery may be due to the multifactorial etiology of myocardial injury, potential confounding factors of patient age, comorbidities including diabetes, concomitant medications, and the coadministered cardioprotective general anesthetic agents. Given the complexity of signal transfer pathways and confounding factors, further studies should evaluate the multitarget strategies with optimal measures of composite outcomes.

Abstract
Coronary heart diseases are of high relevance for health care systems in developed countries regarding patient numbers and costs. Disappointingly, the enormous effort put into the development of innovative therapies and the high numbers of clinical studies conducted are counteracted by the low numbers of therapies that become clinically effective. Evidently, pre-clinical research in its present form does not appear informative of the performance of treatments in the clinic and, even more relevant, it appears that there is hardly any consent about how to improve the predictive capacity of pre-clinical experiments. According to the steadily increasing relevance that pig models have gained in biomedical research in the recent past, we anticipate that research in pigs can be highly predictive for ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) therapies as well. Thus, we here describe the significance of pig models in IRI, give an overview about recent developments in evaluating such models by clinically relevant methods and present the latest insight into therapies applied to pigs under IRI.
