Insight into the mechanisms of therapeutic hypothermia for asphyxia cardiac arrest using a comprehensive approach of GC-MS/MS and UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS based on serum metabolomics. Heliyon 2023; 9:e16247. [PMID: 37274716 PMCID: PMC10238693 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e16247] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2022] [Revised: 05/08/2023] [Accepted: 05/10/2023] [Indexed: 06/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Cardiac arrest (CA) is a severe worldwide health problem. Therapeutic hypothermia is widely used to reduce the cardiac injury and improve the neurological outcomes after CA. However, a few studies have reported the changes of serum metabolic characteristics after CA. The healthy male New Zealand Rabbits successfully resuscitated from 10-min asphyxia-induced CA were divided randomly into the normothermia (NT) group and mild therapeutic hypothermia (HT) group. The sham group underwent sham-operation. Survival was recorded and neurological deficit score (NDS) was assessed. The serum non-targeted metabolomics were detected using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS) and gas chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) at 15 min, 3 h, 6 h and 24 h after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). Our study showed that the heart rate (HR) significantly slowed down during 0.5-6 h post ROSC, consistent with the decreasing trend of body temperature in the HT group. Compared with the NT group, the levels of Lac and PCO2 at 24 h post ROSC were lower, while a significant increase in PO2 level at 24 h post ROSC was observed in the HT group. The survival rate of the HT group was significantly higher than that of the NT group, and NDS scores were remarkably increased at 24 h post ROSC in the NT group. Significant differences in metabolic profiles at 15 min, 3 h, 6 h and 24 h post ROSC were observed among the Sham, NT and HT groups. The differential metabolites detected by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS and GC-MS/MS were screened for further study between every two groups (NT vs sham, HT vs sham and HT vs NT) at 15 min, 3 h, 6 h and 24 h post ROSC. Phenylalanine metabolism, alanine, aspartate and glutamate metabolism and tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle were enriched in NT vs sham, HT vs sham and HT vs NT respectively. Our study demonstrated that therapeutic hypothermia improves the survival and neurological outcomes in rabbit model of cardiac arrest, and firstly represents the dynamic metabolic changes in the hypothermia therapy for CA by comprehensive UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS- and GC-MS/MS-based metabolomics.

Abstract
Following the discovery of nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen sulfide (H2 S) has been identified as the third gasotransmitter in humans. Increasing evidence have shown that H2 S is of preventive or therapeutic effects on diverse pathological complications. As a consequence, it is of great significance to develop suitable approaches of H2 S-based therapeutics for biomedical applications. H2 S-releasing agents (H2 S donors) play important roles in exploring and understanding the physiological functions of H2 S. More importantly, accumulating studies have validated the theranostic potential of H2 S donors in extensive repertoires of in vitro and in vivo disease models. Thus, it is imperative to summarize and update the literatures in this field. In this review, first, the background of H2 S on its chemical and biological aspects is concisely introduced. Second, the studies regarding the H2 S-releasing compounds are categorized and described, and accordingly, their H2 S-donating mechanisms, biological applications, and therapeutic values are also comprehensively delineated and discussed. Necessary comparisons between related H2 S donors are presented, and the drawbacks of many typical H2 S donors are analyzed and revealed. Finally, several critical challenges encountered in the development of multifunctional H2 S donors are discussed, and the direction of their future development as well as their biomedical applications is proposed. We expect that this review will reach extensive audiences across multiple disciplines and promote the innovation of H2 S biomedicine.

Hydrogen Sulfide Reduces Ischemia and Reperfusion Injury in Neuronal Cells in a Dose- and Time-Dependent Manner. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms221810099. [PMID: 34576259 PMCID: PMC8467989 DOI: 10.3390/ijms221810099] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2021] [Revised: 09/13/2021] [Accepted: 09/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: The ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) of neuronal tissue, such as the brain and retina, leads to possible cell death and loss of function. Current treatment options are limited, but preliminary observations suggest a protective effect of hydrogen sulfide (H2S). However, the dosage, timing, and mechanism of inhaled H2S treatment after IRI requires further exploration. Methods: We investigated possible neuroprotective effects of inhaled H2S by inducing retinal ischemia–reperfusion injury in rats for the duration of 1 h (120 mmHg), followed by the administration of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) for 1 h at different time points (0, 1.5, and 3 h after the initiation of reperfusion) and at different H2S concentrations (120, 80, and 40 ppm). We quantified the H2S effect by conducting retinal ganglion cell counts in fluorogold-labeled animals 7 days after IRI. The retinal tissue was harvested after 24 h for molecular analysis, including qPCR and Western blotting. Apoptotic and inflammatory mediators, transcription factors, and markers for oxidative stress were investigated. Histological analyses of the retina and the detection of inflammatory cytokines in serum assays were also performed. Results: The effects of inhaled H2S were most evident at a concentration of 80 ppm administered 1.5 h after IRI. H2S treatment increased the expression of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2, decreased pro-apoptotic Bax expression, reduced the release of the inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and TNF-α, attenuated NF-κB p65, and enhanced Akt phosphorylation. H2S also downregulated NOX4 and cystathionine β-synthase. Histological analyses illustrated a reduction in TNF-α in retinal ganglion cells and lower serum levels of TNF-α in H2S-treated animals after IRI. Conclusion: After neuronal IRI, H2S mediates neuroprotection in a time- and dose-dependent manner. The H2S treatment modulated transcription factor NF-κB activation and reduced retinal inflammation.

Abstract
Conjugated polymers (CPs) are emerging as part of a promising future for gas-sensing applications. However, some of their limitations, such as poor specificity, humidity sensitivity and poor ambient stability, remain persistent. Herein, a novel combination of a polymer-monomer heterostructure, derived from a CP (PDVT-10) and a newly reported monomer [tris(keto-hydrazone)] has been integrated in an organic field-effect transistor (OFET) platform to sense H2S selectively. The hybrid heterostructure shows an unprecedented sensitivity (525% ppm-1) and high selectivity toward H2S gas. In addition, we demonstrated that the PDVT-10/tris(keto-hydrazone) OFET sensor has the lowest limit of detection (1 ppb), excellent ambient stability (∼5% current degradation after 150 days), good response-recovery behavior, and exceptional electrical behavior and gas response reproducibility. This work can help pave the way to incorporate futuristic gas sensors in a multitude of applications.

Inhaled Gases as Therapies for Post-Cardiac Arrest Syndrome: A Narrative Review of Recent Developments. Front Med (Lausanne) 2021; 7:586229.

Abstract
Despite recent advances in the management of post-cardiac arrest syndrome (PCAS), the survival rate, without neurologic sequelae after resuscitation, remains very low. Whole-body ischemia, followed by reperfusion after cardiac arrest (CA), contributes to PCAS, for which established pharmaceutical interventions are still lacking. It has been shown that a number of different processes can ultimately lead to neuronal injury and cell death in the pathology of PCAS, including vasoconstriction, protein modification, impaired mitochondrial respiration, cell death signaling, inflammation, and excessive oxidative stress. Recently, the pathophysiological effects of inhaled gases including nitric oxide (NO), molecular hydrogen (H2), and xenon (Xe) have attracted much attention. Herein, we summarize recent literature on the application of NO, H2, and Xe for treating PCAS. Recent basic and clinical research has shown that these gases have cytoprotective effects against PCAS. Nevertheless, there are likely differences in the mechanisms by which these gases modulate reperfusion injury after CA. Further preclinical and clinical studies examining the combinations of standard post-CA care and inhaled gas treatment to prevent ischemia-reperfusion injury are warranted to improve outcomes in patients who are being failed by our current therapies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Inhalation of noble and other gases after cardiac arrest (CA) might improve neurological and cardiac outcomes. This article discusses up-to-date information on this novel therapeutic intervention. DATA SOURCES CENTRAL, MEDLINE, online published abstracts from conference proceedings, clinical trial registry clinicaltrials.gov, and reference lists of relevant papers were systematically searched from January 1960 till March 2019. STUDY SELECTION Preclinical and clinical studies, irrespective of their types or described outcomes, were included. DATA EXTRACTION Abstract screening, study selection, and data extraction were performed by two independent authors. Due to the paucity of human trials, risk of bias assessment was not performed DATA SYNTHESIS: After screening 281 interventional studies, we included an overall of 27. Only, xenon, helium, hydrogen, and nitric oxide have been or are being studied on humans. Xenon, nitric oxide, and hydrogen show both neuroprotective and cardiotonic features, while argon and hydrogen sulfide seem neuroprotective, but not cardiotonic. Most gases have elicited neurohistological protection in preclinical studies; however, only hydrogen and hydrogen sulfide appeared to preserve CA1 sector of hippocampus, the most vulnerable area in the brain for hypoxia. CONCLUSION Inhalation of certain gases after CPR appears promising in mitigating neurological and cardiac damage and may become the next successful neuroprotective and cardiotonic interventions.

Abstract
Stroke is a cerebrovascular disease displaying high mortality and morbidity. Despite extensive efforts, only very few therapies are available for stroke patients as yet. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is thought to be a signalling molecule that is endogenously produced and plays functional roles in the central nervous system. Currently, numerous studies show that H2S impacts stroke outcomes in animal and cellular models. Here, we review the recent research regarding the effects of endogenously produced H2S as well as exogenous H2S donors on stroke pathology, focusing on the potential of H2S-based therapies in treating ischaemic stroke. We also discuss the several issues that hinder the clinical translation of H2S-based therapies from the bench. Taken together, we think that H2S-based therapies are promising strategies for treating cerebral ischaemia if we successfully address these issues.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a novel signaling molecule most recently found to be of fundamental importance in cellular function as a regulator of apoptosis, inflammation, and perfusion. Mechanisms of endogenous H2S signaling are poorly understood; however, signal transmission is thought to occur via persulfidation at reactive cysteine residues on proteins. Although much has been discovered about how H2S is synthesized in the body, less is known about how it is metabolized. Recent studies have discovered a multitude of different targets for H2S therapy, including those related to protein modification, intracellular signaling, and ion channel depolarization. The most difficult part of studying hydrogen sulfide has been finding a way to accurately and reproducibly measure it. The purpose of this review is to: elaborate on the biosynthesis and catabolism of H2S in the human body, review current knowledge of the mechanisms of action of this gas in relation to ischemic injury, define strategies for physiological measurement of H2S in biological systems, and review potential novel therapies that use H2S for treatment.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is now known as an important neuromodulator in the central nervous system. The aim of the current study was to investigate whether exogenous H2S gas can attenuate brain edema induced by experimental stroke and to clarify the potential mechanisms. Rats underwent 2-h middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) and received 40 ppm or 80 ppm H2S inhalation for 3h at the beginning of reperfusion. The effects of H2S were investigated by evaluating neurological function, infarct size, brain edema volume, and aquaporin4 (AQP4) protein expression at 24h after reperfusion. Moreover, to explore the possible mechanisms for the neuroprotective effects of H2S, protein kinase C (PKC) activity was detected and a PKC inhibitor, Go6983, was used via intracerebral ventricular injection. Our results showed that 40 ppm or 80 ppm H2S inhalation significantly reduced neurological deficits, infarct size, and brain edema after MCAO. The expression of AQP4 in the peri-infarct area of brain was also inhibited after inhalation of H2S. PKC was activated by H2S treatment and the PKC inhibitor attenuated the neuroprotection of H2S with an increased AQP4 expression at the same time. In conclusion, H2S inhalation attenuates brain edema, reduces infarct volume, and improves neurologic function in a rat experimental stroke model. The therapeutic benefits of H2S inhalation are associated with down-regulation of AQP4 expression via activating PKC.

Abstract
AIM To investigate whether slight variations in core temperature prior to cardiac arrest (CA) influence short-term outcomes and mitochondrial functions. METHODS AND MATERIALS Three groups of New Zealand White rabbits (n = 12/group) were submitted to 15 minutes of CA at 38°C (T-38 group), 39°C (T-39), or 40°C (T 40) and 120 minutes of reperfusion. A Sham-operated group (n = 6) underwent only surgery. Restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), survival, hemodynamics, and pupillary reactivity were recorded. Animals surviving to the end of the observation period were euthanized to assess fresh brain and heart mitochondrial functions (permeability transition and oxidative phosphorylation). Markers of brain and heart damages were also measured. RESULTS The duration of asphyxia required to induce CA was significantly lower in the T-40 group when compared to the T-38 group (P < .05). The rate of ROSC was >80% in all groups (P = nonsignificant [ns]). Survival significantly differed among the T-38, T-39, and T-40 groups: 10 (83%) of 12, 7 (58%) of 12, and 4 (33%) of 12, respectively (log-rank test, P = .027). At the end of the protocol, none of the animals in the T-40 group had pupillary reflexes compared to 8 (67%) of 12 in the T-38 group (P < .05). Troponin and protein S100B were significantly higher in the T-40 versus T-38 group (P < .05). Cardiac arrest significantly impaired both inner mitochondrial membrane integrity and oxidative phosphorylation in all groups. Brain mitochondria disorders were significantly more severe in the T-40 group compared to the T-38 group (P < .05). CONCLUSION Small changes in body temperature prior to asphyxial CA significantly influence brain mitochondrial functions and short-term outcomes in rabbits.

Abstract
Numerous papers have been published on the role of H2S during circulatory shock. Consequently, knowledge about vascular sulfide concentrations may assume major importance, in particular in the context of "acute on chronic disease", i.e., during circulatory shock in animals with pre-existing chronic disease. This review addresses the questions (i) of the "real" sulfide levels during circulatory shock, and (ii) to which extent injury and pre-existing co-morbidity may affect the expression of H2S producing enzymes under these conditions. In the literature there is a huge range on sulfide blood levels during circulatory shock, in part as a result of the different analytical methods used, but also due to the variable of the models and species studied. Clearly, some of the very high levels reported should be questioned in the context of the well-known H2S toxicity. As long as "real" sulfide levels during circulatory shock are unknown and/or undetectable "on line" due to the lack of appropriate techniques, it appears to be premature to correlate the measured blood levels of hydrogen sulfide with the severity of shock or the H2S therapy-related biological outcomes. The available data on the tissue expression of the H2S-releasing enzymes during circulatory shock suggest that a "constitutive" CSE expression may play a crucial role of for the maintenance of organ function, at least in the kidney. The data also indicate that increased CBS and CSE expression, in particular in the lung and the liver, represents an adaptive response to stress states.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the effects of hypothermia and normothermia treatments for sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) on brain injury recovery in rabbit models. METHODS Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was implemented on apnea-induced SCA rabbit models. Fifty survived rabbits were then randomly received hypothermia (n = 25, 32-34°C) or normothermia treatment (n = 25, 39-39.5°C) for 12 hours. The expected body temperatures were achieved within the first two hours, maintained for ten hours and then rewarmed. The physiological parameters, neurologic function, and the levels of adhesion molecule ICAM-1 and neuron-specific enolase (NSE) were monitored. RESULTS Hypothermia-treated rabbits had lower heart rate when achieving hypothermia (p < 0.0001) and higher SjvO2 after hypothermia maintenance (p = 0.038). The hypothermia group achieved better brain recovery performance according to the neurological deficit grading scale. ICAM-1 and NSE levels in both serum and CSF of the hypothermia group were lower than the normothemia group (all p < 0.0001) during hypothermia maintenance. CONCLUSION Hypothermia treatment after CPR provides better outcome than normothermia treatment in SCA rabbits. Hypothermia can reduce the ICAM-1 and NSE levels in both serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). This study supports the clinical implementation of hypothermia treatment for SCA and reveals that ICAM-1 and NSE are involved in the recovery of brain function after resuscitation.
