Abstract
Objective A major consequence of acute myocardial infarction is myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Collecting proof demonstrates that AXIN1 assume a basic part in different disease; however, the role of AXIN1 in I/R injury remains to a great extent obscure. Methods The I/R injury model on AC16 cells was constructed. siRNA transfection was used to knockdown AXIN1. The qRT-PCR assays and western blot assays were used to detect the expression level of AXIN1 and other key proteins. CCK-8 assays and cell apoptosis assays were used to detect cell proliferation and cell apoptosis. Results AXIN1 was significantly overexpressed in an in vitro model of I/R injury. Knockdown of AXIN1 significantly restored the cell proliferation inhibition caused by IR injury, while inhibiting apoptosis and inflammation. Further mechanistic studies revealed that the transcription factor c-Myc could regulate the expression of AXIN1. The effects of I/R injury on AC16 cells after overexpression of c-Myc were reversed by knockdown of AXIN1. Meanwhile, AXIN1 could regulate the SIRT1/p53/Nrf 2 pathway. Conclusion Our results show an important role for AXIN1 and provide new targets for avoiding and treating I/R injury.

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) Reprograms Circulating Extracellular Vesicles from ACS Patients Impairing Their Cardio-Protective Properties. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms221910270. [PMID: 34638611 PMCID: PMC8508604 DOI: 10.3390/ijms221910270] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2021] [Revised: 09/14/2021] [Accepted: 09/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are promising therapeutic tools in the treatment of cardiovascular disorders. We have recently shown that EVs from patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) undergoing sham pre-conditioning, before percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were cardio-protective, while EVs from patients experiencing remote ischemic pre-conditioning (RIPC) failed to induce protection against ischemia/reperfusion Injury (IRI). No data on EVs from ACS patients recovered after PCI are currently available. Therefore, we herein investigated the cardio-protective properties of EVs, collected after PCI from the same patients. EVs recovered from 30 patients randomly assigned (1:1) to RIPC (EV-RIPC) or sham procedures (EV-naive) (NCT02195726) were characterized by TEM, FACS and Western blot analysis and evaluated for their mRNA content. The impact of EVs on hypoxia/reoxygenation damage and IRI, as well as the cardio-protective signaling pathways, were investigated in vitro (HMEC-1 + H9c2 co-culture) and ex vivo (isolated rat heart). Both EV-naive and EV-RIPC failed to drive cardio-protection both in vitro and ex vivo. Consistently, EV treatment failed to activate the canonical cardio-protective pathways. Specifically, PCI reduced the EV-naive Dusp6 mRNA content, found to be crucial for their cardio-protective action, and upregulated some stress- and cell-cycle-related genes in EV-RIPC. We provide the first evidence that in ACS patients, PCI reprograms the EV cargo, impairing EV-naive cardio-protective properties without improving EV-RIPC functional capability.
