Abstract
Ischemic heart disease remains a leading cause of human mortality worldwide. One form of ischemic heart disease is ischemia-reperfusion injury caused by the reintroduction of blood supply to ischemic cardiac muscle. The short and long-term damage that occurs due to ischemia-reperfusion injury is partly due to the proteolysis of diverse protein substrates inside and outside of cardiomyocytes. Ischemia-reperfusion activates several diverse intracellular proteases, including, but not limited to, matrix metalloproteinases, calpains, cathepsins, and caspases. This review will focus on the biological roles, intracellular localization, proteolytic targets, and inhibitors of these proteases in cardiomyocytes following ischemia-reperfusion injury. Recognition of the intracellular function of each of these proteases includes defining their activation, proteolytic targets, and their inhibitors during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. This review is a step toward a better understanding of protease activation and involvement in ischemic heart disease and developing new therapeutic strategies for its treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury causes various severe heart diseases, including myocardial infarction. This study aimed to determine the therapeutic effect of atractylenolide I (ATR-I), which is an active ingredient isolated from Atractylodes macrocephala, on myocardial I/R injury. METHODS Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly allocated to the five following groups (nine rats/group): control, I/R, and I/R + ATR-I preconditioning (10, 50, and 250 µg). The effects of ATR-I on rats with I/R injury were verified in cardiomyocytes with hypoxia/reoxygenation. Production of reactive oxygen species was determined. The proliferative ability of cardiomyocytes was detected using the bromodeoxyuridine assay. Mitochondrial membrane potential was measured using flow cytometry. Cellular apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry and the terminal dUTP-digoxigenin nick end labeling assay. RESULTS I/R and hypoxia/reoxygenation injury increased mitochondrial dysfunction and activated caspase-3 and Bax/B cell lymphoma 2 expression in vitro and in vivo. ATR-I pretreatment dose-dependently significantly attenuated myocardial apoptosis and suppressed oxidative stress as reflected by increased mitochondrial DNA copy number and superoxide dismutase activity, and decreased reactive oxygen species and Ca2+ content. CONCLUSION ATR-I protects against I/R injury by protecting mitochondrial function and inhibiting activation of caspase-3.

Abstract
Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a clinically fatal disease, caused by restoring myocardial blood supply after a period of ischemia or hypoxia. However, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Recently, increasing evidence reveal that microRNAs (miRs) participate in myocardial I/R injury. This study aimed to investigate whether miR-128-1-5p contributed to cardiomyocyte apoptosis induced by myocardial I/R injury. Here, we showed that the expression of miR-128-1-5p was decreased in mice following myocardial I/R injury. Down-regulation of miR-128-1-5p was also showed in H9c2 cardiomyocytes after hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R), and in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCMs) with H2O2 treatment. Importantly, we found that overexpression of miR-128-1-5p ameliorates cardiomyocyte apoptosis both in H9c2 cardiomyocytes and NRCMs. Moreover, we also found that growth arrest DNA damage-inducible gene 45 gamma (Gadd45g) is identified as a direct target of miR-128-1-5p, which negatively regulated Gadd45g expression. Additionally, silencing of Gadd45g inhibits cardiomyocyte apoptosis in H9c2 cardiomyocytes and NRCMs. These results reveal a novel mechanism by which miR-128-1-5p regulates Gadd45g-mediated cardiomyocyte apoptosis in myocardial I/R injury.

[PMID: 31845557 PMCID: PMC7043966 DOI: 10.4070/kcj.2019.0107] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2019] [Revised: 09/28/2019] [Accepted: 10/30/2019] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES To reveal the detail mechanism of miR-484 on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI/R) injury. METHODS Rats model of MI/R injury was established based on control (Con; sham operate) group, ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) group, miR-484 treatment (miR) group, and I/R-negative control (IR-C) group, followed by pathological and interleukin (IL)-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, and IL-1β expression evaluation. Then the myocardial apoptosis, as well as the expression of miR-484, caspase-3, and caspase-9 in myocardium were examined. Finally, the regulatory relation between miR-484 and SMAD family member 7 (SMAD7) was predicated, followed by verification analysis. RESULTS Compared with Con group, the expression of miR-484 in I/R and IR-C group was decreased. Compared with I/R and IR-C group, the expression of miR-484 was increased in miR group. Compared with Con group, the expression levels of IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-1β in cardiac myocytes of I/R group and IR-C group were increased. Compared with Con group, the apoptotic index, membrane potential of I/R, and the expression of caspase-3/9 were increased in IR-C group. Compared with the I/R and IR-C groups, the apoptotic index of myocardial cells in the ischemic region was decreased, the membrane potential was increased, and the expression of caspase-3/9 was decreased significantly in the miR group. SMAD7 was the target gene of miR-484. CONCLUSIONS MiR-484 protected myocardial cells from I/R injury by suppressing caspase-3 and caspase-9 expression during cardiomyocyte apoptosis. MiR-484 reduced the expression of IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-1β in MI/R. MiR-484 might alleviate the decreasing of mitochondrial membrane potential in MI/R cells.

Pretreatment with Total Flavonoid Extract from Dracocephalum Moldavica L. Attenuates Ischemia Reperfusion-induced Apoptosis. Sci Rep 2018; 8:17491. [PMID: 30504832 PMCID: PMC6269513 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-35726-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2018] [Accepted: 11/08/2018] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
We previously demonstrated the cardio-protection mediated by the total flavonoid extracted from Dracocephalum moldavica L. (TFDM) following myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury (MIRI). The present study assessed the presence and mechanism of TFDM-related cardio-protection on MIRI-induced apoptosis in vivo. Male Sprague-Dawley rats experienced 45-min ischemia with 12 h of reperfusion. Rats pretreated with TFDM (3, 10 or 30 mg/kg/day) were compared with Sham (no MIRI and no TFDM), MIRI (no TFDM), and Positive (trapidil tablets, 13.5 mg/kg/day) groups. In MIRI-treated rats, high dose-TFDM (H-TFDM) pre-treatment with apparently reduced release of LDH, CK-MB and MDA, enhanced the concentration of SOD in plasma, and greatly reduced the infarct size, apoptotic index and mitochondrial injury. H-TFDM pretreatment markedly promoted the phosphorylation of PI3K, Akt, GSK-3β and ERK1/2 in comparison with the MIRI model group. Western blot analysis after reperfusion also showed that H-TFDM decreased release of Bax, cleaved caspase-3, caspase-7 and caspase-9, and increased expression of Bcl-2 as evident by the higher Bcl-2/Bax ratio. TFDM cardio-protection was influenced by LY294002 (PI3K inhibitor) and PD98059 (ERK1/2 inhibitor). Taken together, these results provide convincing evidence of the benefit of TFDM pretreatment due to inhibited myocardial apoptosis as mediated by the PI3K/Akt/GSK-3β and ERK1/2 signaling pathways.

Abstract
Our previous research demonstrated that tilianin protects the myocardium in a myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury (MIRI) rat model and has prominent pharmacological potential as a cardiovascular drug. Our study aimed to investigate the molecular signaling implicated in the improvement of myocardial survival induced by tilianin, a flavonoid antioxidant. Tilianin (2.5, 5, and 10 mg/kg/d) or saline was orally administered to rats for 14 days. On the 15th day, ischemia was induced by ligating the left anterior descending artery for 45 min, followed by 4 h of reperfusion. The levels of MIRI-induced serum myocardial enzymes and cardiomyocyte apoptosis as well as infarct size were examined to assess the cardioprotective effects. Cardiac tissues were collected for western blot analyses to determine the protein expression of anti-apoptotic signaling molecules. In MIRI-treated rats, our results revealed that pre-administration of high dose-tilianin the reduced release of LDH, MDA, and CK-MB and increased the plasma SOD level, and significantly attenuated the infarct size. Western blot analysis showed that a remarkable rise in expression of Bcl-2 and XIAP, and decline in expression of Bax, Smac/Diablo, HtrA2/Omi, cleaved caspase-3, caspase-7 and caspase-9 was observed in the myocardium. The apoptosis index of cardiomyocytes further supports the cardioprotective effect of tilianin. Additionally, compared with the MIRI model group, pretreatment with high dose-tilianin group upregulated phosphorylated Akt and PI3K. In contrast, using the PI3K inhibitor LY294002 to block Akt activation effectively inhibited the protective effects of tilianin against MIRI. Tilianin pretreatment was beneficial for activating the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway and inhibiting myocardial apoptosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Myocardial apoptosis is closely related to myocardial injury caused by coronary microembolization (CME).Nuclear factor erythroid 2-like (Nrf2) has been taken into account as an inhibitor of apoptosis in various tissues. Thus, this research aims to investigate which part Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway plays in myocardial apoptosis process following the effect of CME on rats. METHODS Separate 40 rats then form them into a group of shame, a group of CME, a group of CME plus AAV-Nrf2(AAV-Nrf2 (CME) group) and a group of CME plus AAV-control (AAV-control (CME) group) stochastically and averagely. Rat CME was established by injecting into the left ventricular chamber, with or without pretreatment of adeno-associated virus Nrf2 (AAV-Nrf2). Echocardiological measurements, using Terminal-deoxynucleoitidyl Transferase Mediated Nick End Labeling (TUNEL) to stain, conducting Quantitative PCR in real time (RT-PCR) as well as Western blotting to evaluate the impacts of them functionally, morphologically and molecularly in CME. RESULTS Nrf2 decreased in cardiomyocytes after CME. Upregulation of Nrf2 inside an organism through AAV connect to improving the function of heart as well as attenuating myocardial apoptosis, following the restrain of proapoptotic mRNAs and proteins like caspase-3, caspase-9 and bax expressing as well as the increase of antiapoptotic mRNA and proteins like HO-1 and bcl-2 expressing. CONCLUSION Activation of Nrf2/HO-1 pathway can improve CME-induced cardiac dysfunction effectively and also reduce the myocardial apoptosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Trimetazidine (TMZ) is a well-known anti-ischemic agent; however, its efficacy and mechanism of cardioprotection on coronary microembolization (CME) are largely unknown. The present study was undertaken to determine whether TMZ pretreatment could attenuate myocardial apoptosis and improve cardiac function in a swine model of CME. METHODS Fifteen swine were randomly and equally divided into a sham-operated (control) group, CME group and CME plus TMZ (TMZ) group. CME was induced by injecting inert plastic microspheres (42 μm in diameter) into the left anterior descending artery. For the control group, the same dose of normal saline was substituted for the microspheres, and the TMZ group was pretreated with TMZ 30 min before microsphere injection. Cardiac function was assessed by echocardiography, myocardial apoptosis was detected by TUNEL staining, and the expression levels of cleaved caspase-9/3 were measured by Western blot 12 h after operation. RESULTS Compared to the control group, cardiac function in the CME group was significantly decreased (p < 0.05); however, TMZ pretreatment showed significantly improved cardiac function as compared to the CME group (p < 0.05). The myocardial apoptotic rate and the expression levels of cleaved caspase-9/3 increased remarkably in CME group as compared with the control group (p < 0.001). Again, TMZ pretreatment significantly reduced the apoptotic rate and also the expression levels of cleaved caspase-9/3 (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION The present study demonstrated that TMZ pretreatment could significantly inhibit CME-induced myocardial apoptosis and improve cardiac function, and that the cardioprotective effect appeared to be mediated by the blockade of the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. These results emphasize the importance of TMZ pretreatment in the therapy of CME-induced myocardial injury.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), an enzyme that is important to the regulation of nuclear function, is activated by DNA strand breakage. In massive DNA damage, PARP is overactivated, exhausting nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and leading to cell death. Recent studies have succeeded in reducing cellular damage in ischemia/reperfusion by inhibiting PARP. However, PARP plays an important part in the DNA repair system, and its inhibition may be hazardous in certain situations. We compared the short-time inhibition of PARP against continuous inhibition during ischemia/reperfusion using isolated rat hearts. The hearts were reperfused after 21 minutes of ischemia with a bolus injection of 3-aminobenzamide (3-AB) (10 mg/kg) followed by continuous 3-AB infusion (50 μM) for the whole reperfusion period or for the first 6 minutes or without 3-AB. At the end of reperfusion, contractile function, high-energy phosphate content, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide content, and infarcted area were significantly preserved in the 3-AB 6-minute group. In the 3-AB continuous group, these advantages were not apparent. At the end of reperfusion, PARP cleavage had significantly proceeded in the 3-AB continuous group, indicating initiation of the apoptotic cascade. Thus, continuous PARP inhibition by 3-AB does not reduce reperfusion injury in the isolated rat heart, which may be because of acceleration of apoptosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of our present study was to investigate the efficacy of poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibition in the development of acute kidney injury in an experimental model of severe acute pancreatitis induced by retrograde infusion of sodium taurocholate into the bile-pancreatic duct. METHODS Severity of pancreatitis was evaluated by serum amylase, lipase, tumor necrosis factor α, interleukin-1β, interleukin-6, and histological grading. The following markers of renal dysfunction and injury were measured: serum creatinine level, urea nitrogen level, myeloperoxidase activity, and histology. Activation of PARP, intercellular adhesion molecule-1, and P-selectin protein in the kidney was studied using Western blot analysis. RESULTS 3-Aminobenzamide attenuated the following: (1) serum amylase, lipase, and renal dysfunction; (2) serum concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines; (3) pancreatic and renal pathological injury; (4) renal myeloperoxidase activity; and (5) activation of PARP, intercellular adhesion molecule-1, and P-selectin in the kidney. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that PARP activation may contribute to kidney injury and that PARP inhibitors may be beneficial in renal disorders associated with severe acute pancreatitis.

Abstract
Various procedures such as angioplasty, thrombolytic therapy, coronary bypass surgery, and cardiac transplantation are invariably associated with ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Impaired recovery of cardiac function due to I/R injury is considered to be a consequence of the occurrence of both oxidative stress and intracellular Ca(2+)-overload in the myocardium. These changes in the ischemic myocardium appear to activate both extracellular and intracellular proteases which are responsible for the cleavage of extracellular matrix and subcellular structures involved in the maintenance of cardiac function. It is thus intended to discuss the actions of I/R injury on several proteases, with a focus on calpain, matrix metalloproteinases, and cathepsins as well as their role in inducing alterations both inside and outside the cardiomyocytes. In addition, modifications of subcellular organelles such as myofibrils, sarcoplasmic reticulum and sarcolemma as well as extracellular matrix, and the potential regulatory effects of endogenous inhibitors on protease activities are identified. Both extracellular and intracellular proteolytic activities appear to be imperative in determining the true extent of I/R injury and their inhibition seems to be of critical importance for improving the recovery of cardiac function. Thus, both extracellular and intracellular proteases may serve as potential targets for the development of cardioprotective interventions for reducing damage to the heart and retarding the development of contractile dysfunction caused by I/R injury.

Abstract
It has been demonstrated that increases in poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) activity causes damage to several organs under ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) conditions. The aims of this study were to investigate whether inhibition of PARP could suppress apoptosis in the bladder following acute urinary retention (AUR) and subsequent bladder emptying. Twelve-week-old male Sprague Dawley rats were divided into a control group, saline treated group, and 3-aminobenzamide (3-AB, a specific PARP inhibitor)-treated group. Sixty minutes after the administration of saline and 3-AB, the saline and 3-AB-treated groups had 60 min of over-distension and followed by 2 h of drainage. The degree of bladder apoptosis, levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), ATP and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+); expression of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR), phosphorylation of protein kinase B (Akt); and levels of Bcl-2, Bax, and caspase 3 activity in the bladder were determined. Molecular and histological analyses showed that bladder apoptosis was associated with increases in the amount of PAR and decreases in ATP and NAD+ levels in the saline treated group. In addition, phosphorylated Akt and Bcl-2/Bax ratio were significantly decreased. The activity of caspase 3 was significantly increased in the saline treated group. Inhibition of PARP significantly increased the levels of ATP and NAD+, phosphorylation of Akt, and Bcl-2/Bax ratio, and significantly reduced the activation of caspase 3. As a result, apoptosis in the bladder was attenuated. These results indicate that PARP activation may be involved in apoptosis in the bladder induced by AUR and subsequent emptying via energy depletion and suppression of Akt activity.

Abstract
Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury-induced oxidative stress plays an important role in the functional impairment of the bladder following acute bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) via induction of apoptosis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the time course of the bladder apoptosis, and apoptosis related molecular changes in the early stage of acute BOO. Twelve-week-old male Sprague Dawley rats were divided into control, acute BOO only (I), and acute BOO plus subsequent emptying (I/R) for 30, 60, 120 min, 3 days and 2 weeks. We examined the extent of bladder apoptosis, expression of Mn-superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD), Bcl-2, Bax, caspase 3 and poly (ADP-ribose) (PAR) in the bladder. Bladder apoptosis was significantly increased in the I/R group at 30, 60, and 120 min following bladder emptying. BOO plus subsequent emptying for 30, 60, 120 min showed significant decrease in MnSOD and Bcl-2 expression, and significant increase in caspase 3, Bax expression, and amounts of PAR. These results indicate that bladder apoptosis, induced by acute BOO and subsequent emptying, is associated with decreased MnSOD expression, increased PARP activity and imbalance in apoptosis pathways.
