Abstract
Anxiety or depression after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is one of the key clinical problems in cardiology that need to be solved urgently. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) may be a potential biomarker for the pathogenesis and treatment of anxiety or depression after PCI. This article reviews the correlation between BDNF and cardiovascular system and nervous system from the aspects of synthesis, release and action site of BDNF, and focuses on the latest research progress of the mechanism of BDNF in anxiety or depression after PCI. It includes the specific mechanisms by which BDNF regulates the levels of inflammatory factors, reduces oxidative stress damage, and mediates multiple signaling pathways. In addition, this review summarizes the therapeutic potential of BDNF as a potential biomarker for anxiety or depression after PCI.

Abstract
Background Exploring potential therapeutic target is of great significance for myocardial infarction (MI) and post-MI heart failure. Transcription factor Yin-Yang 1 (YY1) is an essential regulator of apoptosis and angiogenesis, but its role in MI is unclear. Methods and Results The expression of YY1 was assessed in the C57BL/6J mouse heart following MI. Overexpression or silencing of YY1 in the mouse heart was achieved by adeno-associated virus 9 injection. The survival, cardiac function, and scar size, as well as the apoptosis, angiogenesis, cardiac fibrosis, T helper 2 lymphocyte cytokine production, and macrophage polarization were assessed. The effects of YY1 on Akt phosphorylation and vascular endothelial growth factor production were also investigated. The expression of YY1 in heart was significantly stimulated by MI. The survival rate, cardiac function, scar size, and left ventricular volume of mice were improved by YY1 overexpression but worsened by YY1 silencing. YY1 alleviated cardiac apoptosis and fibrosis, promoted angiogenesis, T helper 2 cytokine production, and M2 macrophage polarization in the post-MI heart, it also enhanced the tube formation and migration ability of endothelial cells. Enhanced Akt phosphorylation, along with the increased vascular endothelial growth factor levels were observed in presence of YY1 overexpression. Conclusions YY1 ameliorates cardiac injury and remodeling after MI by repressing cardiomyocyte apoptosis and boosting angiogenesis, which might be ascribed to the enhancement of Akt phosphorylation and the subsequent vascular endothelial growth factor up-regulation. Increased T helper 2 cytokine production and M2 macrophage polarization may also be involved in YY1's cardioprotective effects. These findings supported YY1 as a potential target for therapeutic investigation of MI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early-onset sepsis (EOS) remains a substantial cause of morbidity and mortality among neonates. Yet, currently available biological parameters have not proven to be accurate enough to predict EOS reliably. This study aimed to determine serum concentrations of 13 cytokines in umbilical cord blood and evaluate their diagnostic value for EOS. METHODS A prospective single-center study that included analysis of umbilical cord blood of term and preterm neonates who were born from March 2017 to November 2017. Using ELISA analysis, 13 cytokines were simultaneously quantified and correlated with the development of EOS. RESULTS Four hundred and seventy-four neonates were included, of which seven met the criteria for culture-positive EOS. Interleukin (IL)-6 (p < 0.001), IL-9 (p = 0.003), and IL-21 (p < 0.001) were significantly increased in neonates with EOS compared to controls. Sensitivity and specificity for IL-6, IL-9, and IL-21 at the defined cut-off points were 85.7 and 77.3%, 71.4 and 62.5%, and 71.4 and 52.0%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS In neonates with EOS, IL-9 and IL-21 are significantly elevated and may be employed in the diagnostic of EOS. However, diagnostic accuracy remains lower than with IL-6. Values of 13 T cell cytokines may be used as reference values for future studies in neonates. IMPACT Interleukin-9 (IL-9) and interleukin-21 (IL-21) are significantly elevated in neonates with early-onset sepsis. IL-9 and IL-21 have been shown to play a specific role in neonatal sepsis. Neonatal reference values were generated for several cytokines. IL-9 and IL-21 might be attractive biomarkers for neonatal sepsis in future. This study is likely to promote further research in this area. Values of several T cell cytokines may be used as reference values for future studies in neonates.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Over the last decades, the role of inflammation and immune system activation in the initiation and progression of coronary artery disease (CAD) has been established. OBJECTIVES The study aimed to present the interplay between cytokines and their actions preceding and shortly after ACS. METHODS We searched in a systemic manner the most relevant articles to the topic of inflammation, cytokines, vulnerable plaque and myocardial infarction in MEDLINE, COCHRANE and EMBASE databases. RESULTS Different classes of cytokines (intereleukin [IL]-1 family, Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) family, chemokines, adipokines, interferons) are implicated in the entire process leading to destabilization of the atherosclerotic plaque, and consequently, to the incidence of myocardial infarction. Especially IL-1 and TNF-α family are involved in inflammatory cell accumulation, vulnerable plaque formation, platelet aggregation, cardiomyocyte apoptosis and adverse remodeling following the myocardial infarction. Several cytokines such as IL-6, adiponectin, interferon-γ, appear with significant prognostic value in ACS patients. Thus, research interest focuses on the modulation of inflammation in ACS to improve clinical outcomes. CONCLUSION Understanding the unique characteristics that accompany each cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction could illuminate the signaling pathways involved in plaque destabilization and indicate future treatment strategies to improve cardiovascular prognosis in ACS patients.

Abstract
By virtue of their actions on NF-κB, an inflammatory nuclear transcription factor, various cytokines have been documented to play important regulatory roles in determining cardiac function under both physiological and pathophysiological conditions. Several cytokines including TNF-α, TGF-β, and different interleukins such as IL-1 IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, and IL-18 are involved in the development of various inflammatory cardiac pathologies, namely ischemic heart disease, myocardial infarction, heart failure, and cardiomyopathies. In ischemia-related pathologies, most of the cytokines are released into the circulation and serve as biological markers of inflammation. Furthermore, there is an evidence of their direct role in the pathogenesis of ischemic injury, suggesting cytokines as potential targets for the development of some anti-ischemic therapies. On the other hand, certain cytokines such as IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, and IL-10 are involved in the post-ischemic tissue repair and thus are considered to exert beneficial effects on cardiac function. Conflicting reports regarding the role of some cytokines in inducing cardiac dysfunction in heart failure and different types of cardiomyopathies seem to be due to differences in the nature, duration, and degree of heart disease as well as the concentrations of some cytokines in the circulation. In spite of extensive research work in this field of investigation, no satisfactory anti-cytokine therapy for improving cardiac function in any type of heart disease is available in the literature.

Abstract
CD4+ T-cells play crucial roles in the injured heart. However, the way in which different CD4+ T subtypes function in the myocardial infarction/reperfusion (MI/R) heart is still poorly understood. We aimed to detect the dynamic profile of distinct CD4+ subpopulation-associated cytokines/chemokines by relying on a closed-chest acute murine MI/R model. The protein levels of 26 CD4+ T-cell-associated cytokines/chemokines were detected in the heart tissues and serum of mice at day 7 and day 14 post-MI/R or sham surgery. The mRNA levels of IL-4, IL-6, IL-13, IL-27, MIP-1β, MCP-3, and GRO-α were measured in blood mononuclear cells. The protein levels of IL-4, IL-6, IL-13, IL-27, MIP-1β, MCP-3, and GRO-α increased in both injured heart tissues and serum, while IFN-γ, IL-12P70, IL-2, IL-1β, IL-18, TNF-α, IL-5, IL-9, IL-17A, IL-23, IL-10, eotaxin, MIP-1α, RANTES, MCP-1, and MIP-2 increased only in MI/R heart tissues in the day 7 and day 14 groups compared to the sham group. In serum, the IFN-γ, IL-23, and IL-10 levels were downregulated in the MI/R model at both day 7 and day 14 compared to the sham. Compared with the protein expressions in injured heart tissues at day 7, IFN-γ, IL-12P70, IL-2, IL-18, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-4, IL-5, IL-9, IL-17A, IL-23, IL-27, IL-10, eotaxin, IP-10, RANTES, MCP-1, MCP-3, and GRO-α were reduced, while IL-1β and MIP-2 were elevated at day 14. IL-13 and MIP-1β showed higher levels in the MI/R serum at day 14 than at day 7. mRNA levels of IL-4, IL-6, IL-13, and IL-27 were increased in the day 7 group compared to the sham, while MIP-1β, MCP-3, and GRO-α mRNA levels showed no significant difference between the MI/R and sham groups in blood mononuclear cells. Multiple CD4+ T-cell-associated cytokines/chemokines were upregulated in the MI/R hearts at the chronic stage. These results provided important evidence necessary for developing future immunomodulatory therapies after MI/R.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is one of the most deleterious conditions leading to cardiovascular diseases and mortality. The importance of an early and accurate diagnosis assures immediate medical treatments, which are fundamental to reduce mortality and improve prognoses. AMI is associated to an inflammatory response which includes the increase of circulating inflammatory cytokines, chemokines and immune cell activation. This study aimed to identify which are the very early immune-related biomarkers that may be used as predictors of myocardial infarction severity. In order to mimic the pathophysiological events involved in human myocardial infarction, a temporary occlusion (90 min) of the mid-left anterior descending coronary artery was performed in a swine animal model. RESULTS Lymphocyte subsets analysis in peripheral blood revealed significant alterations in CD4+/CD8+ ratio and naïve and effector/memory T cell percentages at 1 h post-myocardial infarction. Changes in TH1/TH2-related cytokine, monocyte and neutrophil markers gene expression were observed in peripheral blood lymphocytes, as well. Additionally, significant correlations between cardiac parameters (cardiac enzymes, left ventricular ejection fraction and % infarct) and blood-derived parameters (cytokine expression and lymphocyte subset distribution) were found. CONCLUSIONS Peripheral blood lymphocyte alterations are easily and swiftly detectable, so they may be good biomarkers for a very early prognosis and to predict myocardial infarction severity.

Abstract
Type 2 immunity participates in the pathogeneses of helminth infection and allergic diseases. Emerging evidence indicates that the components of type 2 immunity are also involved in maintaining metabolic hemostasis and facilitating the healing process after tissue injury. Numerous preclinical studies have suggested regulation of type 2 immunity-related cytokines, such as interleukin-4, -13, and -33, and cell types, such as M2 macrophages, mast cells, and eosinophils, affects cardiac functions after myocardial infarction (MI), providing new insights into the importance of immune modulation in the infarcted heart. This review provides an overview of the functions of these cytokines and cells in the setting of MI as well as their potential to predict the severity and prognosis of MI.

Abstract
Osteoprotegerin (OPG) and receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) are regulators of bone remodeling, but are also considered to play important roles in coronary artery disease (CAD). This study evaluated potential associations of soluble (s) RANKL and OPG with atherosclerosis-relevant cytokines. Blood was collected from 414 individuals who presented to our hospital with intermediate likelihood for CAD for further examination. Plasma concentrations of total sRANKL, OPG, and 20 cytokines were measured using sandwich-type enzyme-linked immunoassays (ELISAs; OPG and sRANKL) and Luminex laser-based fluorescence analysis and correlated with each other. The plasma levels of interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and the T-helper cell 2 cytokines interleukin-4 (IL-4) and IL-13 showed a positive correlation with sRANKL. The association with sRANKL levels was negative for IFN-γ-induced protein-10 (IP-10) and monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1). The strongest independent association with sRANKL in multivariable analyses was found for IFN-γ (positive) and IP-10 (negative), while IL-13 showed a positive and independent association with OPG plasma levels. OPG and sRANKL plasma levels correlate strongly and independently with specific circulating atherosclerosis-related cytokines in patients with intermediate cardiovascular risk.

Abstract
Cytokines, including interleukins, interferons, tumor necrosis factors, and chemokines, have a variety of pro- and anti-inflammatory effects in the body through a number of biochemical pathways and interactions. Stimuli, actions, interactions, and downstream effects of cytokines have been investigated in more depth in recent years, and clinical research has also been conducted to implicate cytokines in causal patterns in certain diseases. However, particular cutoffs of cytokines as biomarkers for disease processes have not been well studied, and this warrants future work to potentially improve diagnoses for diseases with inflammatory markers. A limited number of studies in this area are reviewed, considering diseases correlated with abnormal cytokine profiles, as well as specific cutoffs at which cytokines have been deemed clinically useful for diagnosing those diseases through Receiver Operator Characteristics modeling. In light of studies such as those discussed in this review, cytokine testing has the potential to support diagnosis due to its lack of invasiveness and low cost, compared to other common types of testing for infections and inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a condition triggered by an inflammatory process that seriously affects human health. Calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) in T lymphocytes is involved during the inflammation reaction. However, the relationship between them is not very clear. In this study, we collected human peripheral blood T lymphocytes from patients with AMI and in different stages of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) (at the onset of AMI, the first day after PCI (PCI-1), PCI-3, and PCI-5) to study the CaSR and NF-κB pathway protein expression, cytokine release and T cell apoptosis. The results showed that the expressions of CaSR, P-p65, Caspase-12, and the secretions of Th-1 and Th-2 type cytokines were increased at the onset of AMI, especially on the PCI-1. Meanwhile, the apoptosis rate of CD(3+), CD(4+) and CD(8+) T lymphocytes also increased. However, from PCI-3, all the indicators began to decline. In addition, we also found that positive CaSR small interfering RNA (siRNA) transfection in T lymphocytes and NF-κB pathway blocker Bay-11-7082 reversed the increased expressions of CaSR, P-p65, Caspase-12, reduced the secretions of Th-1 and Th-2 type cytokines, and decreased T lymphocytes apoptosis rate not only in the AMI patients but also in the normal controls. All of these results indicated that CaSR in the human peripheral blood T lymphocytes were involved in the AMI onset and progression, which probably was related to the NF-κB pathway. Our study demonstrated the relationship between AMI and CaSR, and will provide new effective prevention theory and new targets for drug treatment.

Abstract
Background Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) launches an inflammatory response and a repair process to compensate cardiac function. During this process, the balance between proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines is important for optimal cardiac repair. Stem cell transplantation after AMI improves tissue repair and increases the ventricular ejection fraction. Here, we studied in detail the acute effect of bone marrow mononuclear cell (BMMNC) transplantation on proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods Patients with STEMI treated with thrombolysis followed by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were randomly assigned to receive either BMMNC or saline as an intracoronary injection. Cardiac function was evaluated by left ventricle angiogram during the PCI and again after 6 months. The concentrations of 27 cytokines were measured from plasma samples up to 4 days after the PCI and the intracoronary injection. Results Twenty-six patients (control group, n = 12; BMMNC group, n = 14) from the previously reported FINCELL study (n = 80) were included to this study. At day 2, the change in the proinflammatory cytokines correlated with the change in the anti-inflammatory cytokines in both groups (Kendall’s tau, control 0.6; BMMNC 0.7). At day 4, the correlation had completely disappeared in the control group but was preserved in the BMMNC group (Kendall’s tau, control 0.3; BMMNC 0.7). Conclusions BMMNC transplantation is associated with preserved balance between pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines after STEMI in PCI-treated patients. This may partly explain the favorable effect of stem cell transplantation after AMI.

Abstract
Background Pathway analysis has been widely used to gain insight into essential mechanisms of the response to myocardial infarction (MI). Currently, there exist multiple pathway databases that organize molecular datasets and manually curate pathway maps for biological interpretation at varying forms of organization. However, inconsistencies among different databases in pathway descriptions, frequently due to conflicting results in the literature, can generate incorrect interpretations. Furthermore, although pathway analysis software provides detailed images of interactions among molecules, it does not exhibit how pathways interact with one another or with other biological processes under specific conditions. Methods We propose a novel method to standardize descriptions of enriched pathways for a set of genes/proteins using Gene Ontology terms. We used this method to examine the relationships among pathways and biological processes for a set of condition-specific genes/proteins, represented as a functional biological pathway-process network. We applied this algorithm to a set of 613 MI-specific proteins we previously identified. Results A total of 96 pathways from Biocarta, KEGG, and Reactome, and 448 Gene Ontology Biological Processes were enriched with these 613 proteins. The pathways were represented as Boolean functions of biological processes, delivering an interactive scheme to organize enriched information with an emphasis on involvement of biological processes in pathways. We extracted a network focusing on MI to demonstrate that tyrosine phosphorylation of Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription (STAT) protein, positive regulation of collagen metabolic process, coagulation, and positive/negative regulation of blood coagulation have immediate impacts on the MI response. Conclusions Our method organized biological processes and pathways in an unbiased approach to provide an intuitive way to identify biological properties of pathways under specific conditions. Pathways from different databases have similar descriptions yet diverse biological processes, indicating variation in their ability to share similar functional characteristics. The coverages of pathways can be expanded with the incorporation of more biological processes, predicting involvement of protein members in pathways. Further, detailed analyses of the functional biological pathway-process network will allow researchers and scientists to explore critical routes in biological systems in the progression of disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genome-wide association studies are powerful tools for nominating pathogenic variants, but offer little insight as to how candidate genes affect disease outcome. Such is the case for SH2B adaptor protein 3 (SH2B3), which is a negative regulator of multiple cytokine signaling pathways and is associated with increased risk of myocardial infarction (MI), but its role in post-MI inflammation and fibrosis is completely unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS Using an experimental model of MI (left anterior descending artery occlusion/reperfusion injury) in wild-type and Sh2b3 knockout rats (Sh2b3(em2Mcwi)), we assessed the role of Sh2b3 in post-MI fibrosis, leukocyte infiltration, angiogenesis, left ventricle contractility, and inflammatory gene expression. Compared with wild-type, Sh2b3(em2Mcwi) rats had significantly increased fibrosis (2.2-fold; P<0.05) and elevated leukocyte infiltration (>2-fold; P<0.05), which coincided with decreased left ventricle fractional shortening (-Δ11%; P<0.05) at 7 days post left anterior descending artery occlusion/reperfusion injury. Despite an increased angiogenic potential in Sh2b3(em2Mcwi) rats (1.7-fold; P<0.05), we observed no significant differences in left ventricle capillary density between wild-type and Sh2b3(em2Mcwi) rats. In total, 12 genes were significantly elevated in the post left anterior descending artery occluded/reperfused hearts of Sh2b3(em2Mcwi) rats relative to wild-type, of which 3 (NLRP12, CCR2, and IFNγ) were significantly elevated in the left ventricle of heart failure patients carrying the MI-associated rs3184504 [T] SH2B3 risk allele. CONCLUSIONS These data demonstrate for the first time that SH2B3 is a crucial mediator of post-MI inflammation and fibrosis.

Vagus nerve stimulation initiated late during ischemia, but not reperfusion, exerts cardioprotection via amelioration of cardiac mitochondrial dysfunction. Heart Rhythm 2014; 11:2278-87. [PMID: 25093803 DOI: 10.1016/j.hrthm.2014.08.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 67] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2014] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We previously reported that vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) applied immediately at the onset of cardiac ischemia provides cardioprotection against cardiac ischemic-reperfusion (I/R) injury. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine whether VNS applied during ischemia or at the onset of reperfusion exerts differential cardioprotection against cardiac I/R injury. METHODS Twenty-eight swine (25-30 kg) were randomized into 4 groups: Control (sham-operated, no VNS), VNS-ischemia (VNS applied during ischemia), VNS-reperfusion (VNS applied during reperfusion), and VNS-ischemia+atropine (VNS applied during ischemia with 1 mg/kg atropine administration). Ischemia was induced by left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery occlusion for 60 minutes, followed by 120 minutes of reperfusion. VNS was applied either 30 minutes after LAD coronary artery occlusion or at the onset of reperfusion and continued until the end of reperfusion. Cardiac function, infarct size, myocardial levels of connexin 43, cytochrome c, tumor necrosis factor α, and interleukin 4, and cardiac mitochondrial function were determined. RESULTS VNS applied 30 minutes after LAD coronary artery occlusion, but not at reperfusion, markedly reduced ventricular fibrillation incidence and infarct size (~59%), improved cardiac function; attenuated cardiac mitochondrial reactive oxygen species production, depolarization, swelling, and cytochrome c release; and increased the amount of phosphorylated connexin 43 and interleukin 4 as compared with the Control group. These beneficial effects of VNS were abolished by atropine. CONCLUSION VNS could provide significant cardioprotective effects even when initiated later during ischemia, but was not effective after reperfusion. These findings indicate the importance of timing of VNS initiation and warrant the potential clinical application of VNS in protecting myocardium at risk of I/R injury.

Inflammatory biomarkers for predicting cardiovascular disease. Clin Biochem 2013; 46:1353-71. [PMID: 23756129 DOI: 10.1016/j.clinbiochem.2013.05.070] [Citation(s) in RCA: 112] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2012] [Revised: 05/27/2013] [Accepted: 05/30/2013] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
The pathology of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is complex; multiple biological pathways have been implicated, including, but not limited to, inflammation and oxidative stress. Biomarkers of inflammation and oxidative stress may serve to help identify patients at risk for CVD, to monitor the efficacy of treatments, and to develop new pharmacological tools. However, due to the complexities of CVD pathogenesis there is no single biomarker available to estimate absolute risk of future cardiovascular events. Furthermore, not all biomarkers are equal; the functions of many biomarkers overlap, some offer better prognostic information than others, and some are better suited to identify/predict the pathogenesis of particular cardiovascular events. The identification of the most appropriate set of biomarkers can provide a detailed picture of the specific nature of the cardiovascular event. The following review provides an overview of existing and emerging inflammatory biomarkers, pro-inflammatory cytokines, anti-inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, oxidative stress biomarkers, and antioxidant biomarkers. The functions of each biomarker are discussed, and prognostic data are provided where available.

Effects of Shen-Fu Injection on the Expression of T-Cell-Specific Transcription Factors T-bet/Gata-3 in Porcine Postresuscitation Lung Injury. EVIDENCE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE 2013; 2013:464650. [PMID: 23573129 PMCID: PMC3610339 DOI: 10.1155/2013/464650] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2012] [Accepted: 02/17/2013] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
Shen-Fu injection (SFI) derived from the ancient traditional Chinese medicine. In this study, the effects of SFI on the expression of T-bet/GATA-3 and its potential mechanisms causing the shift of T cells from Th2 to Th1 on postresuscitation lung injury were examined in a porcine model of cardiac arrest. 30 pigs were randomly divided into SHAM (n = 6) and three return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) groups (n = 8
per group); 24 pigs were subjected to 8 min of electrically induced cardiac arrest and 2 min of basic life support, which received central venous injection of Shen-Fu (SFI), epinephrine (EP) or saline (SA). After successful ROSC, 18 surviving pigs were sacrificed at 24 h after ROSC (n = 6 per group). The levels of serum and lung tissue interleukin (IL)-4 and interferon (IFN)-γ were measured by ELISA, and the protein and mRNA levels of GATA-3 and T-bet in the lung tissue were determined by western blotting and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, respectively. Compared with the EP and SA groups, SFI treatment reduced the levels of IL-4 (P < 0.05), increased levels of IFN-γ (P < 0.05), and induced T-bet mRNA upregulation and GATA-3 mRNA downregulation (P < 0.05). SFI attenuated lung injury and regulated lung immune disorders. Therefore, SFI could protect postresuscitation lung injury by modulating a Th1/Th2 imbalance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study investigated whether an imbalance in Th1/Th2 cells is involved in the post-resuscitation myocardial immune dysfunction. METHODS 26 Wuzhishan miniature pigs were randomly divided into return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) group (n=20) and sham-operated group (n=6), 20 pigs were subjected to 8min of electrically induced cardiac arrest, After successful ROSC, the 16 surviving pigs were randomly assigned to be sacrificed (n=8 per group) at 12 and 24h after ROSC, respectively. CD4(+) and CD8(+) lymphocyte subsets were determined by flow cytometry, interleukin (IL)-4 and interferon (IFN)-γ in the myocardium were measured by ELISA, and protein and mRNA levels of GATA-3 and T-bet were detected in the myocardium by Western blotting and quantitative real-time PCR in the post-ROSC group (n=8 per group) at 12 and 24h after ROSC and sham-operated group (n=6) at 24h after ROSC, respectively. RESULTS CD4(+) lymphocyte subsets were significantly lower in the post-ROSC group compared with the sham-operated group (P<0.05) at 12 and 24h after ROSC. The levels of myocardium IFN-γ were markedly increased, while IL-4 was significantly decreased in the post-ROSC group compared with the sham-operated group (P<0.05) at 12 and 24h after ROSC. Protein expression and mRNA levels of T-bet were markedly increased in the myocardium of pigs in the post-ROSC group compared with the sham-operated group (P<0.05) at 12 and 24h after ROSC, while GATA-3 was significantly reduced (P<0.05). CONCLUSION The myocardial immune dysfunction induced by the change in expression levels of the transcription factors GATA-3 and T-bet may be involved in the process of post-resuscitation myocardial injury in a porcine model of cardiac arrest.
