Remote ischemic preconditioning and hypoxia-induced biomarkers in acute myocardial infarction: study on a porcine model. SCAND CARDIOVASC J 2023; 57:2251730. [PMID: 37641930 DOI: 10.1080/14017431.2023.2251730] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2023] [Revised: 07/19/2023] [Accepted: 08/18/2023] [Indexed: 08/31/2023]
Abstract
Objectives. Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) mitigates acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We hypothesized that RIPC reduces the size and severity of AMI and explored molecular mechanisms behind this phenomenon. Design. In two series of experiments, piglets underwent 60 min of the circumflex coronary artery occlusion, resulting in AMI. Piglets were randomly assigned into the RIPC groups (n = 7 + 7) and the control groups (n = 7 + 7). The RIPC groups underwent four 5-min hind limb ischemia-reperfusion cycles before AMI. In series I, the protective efficacy of RIPC was investigated by using biomarkers and echocardiography with a follow-up of 24 h. In series II, the heart of each piglet was harvested for TTC-staining to measure infarct size. Muscle biopsies were collected from the hind limb to explore molecular mechanisms of RIPC using qPCR and Western blot analysis. Results. The levels of CK-MBm (p = 0.032) and TnI (p = 0.007) were lower in the RIPC group. Left ventricular ejection fraction in the RIPC group was greater at the end of the follow-up. The myocardial infarct size in the RIPC group was smaller (p = 0.033). Western blot indicated HIF1α stabilization in the skeletal muscle of the RIPC group. PCR analyses showed upregulation of the HIF target mRNAs for glucose transporter (GLUT1), glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4), phosphofructokinase 1 (PFK1), glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), enolase 1 (ENO1), lactate dehydrogenase (LDHA) and endothelial nitric oxidate synthase (eNOS). Conclusions. Biochemical, physiologic, and histologic evidence confirms that RIPC decreases the size of AMI. The HIF pathway is likely involved in the mechanism of the RIPC.

Nrg1β Released in Remote Ischemic Preconditioning Improves Myocardial Perfusion and Decreases Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury via ErbB2-Mediated Rescue of Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase and Abrogation of Trx2 Autophagy. Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol 2021; 41:2293-2314. [PMID: 34039018 PMCID: PMC8288485 DOI: 10.1161/atvbaha.121.315957] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2021] [Accepted: 05/04/2021] [Indexed: 12/02/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) is an intervention process where the application of multiple cycles of short ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) in a remote vascular bed provides protection against I/R injury. However, the identity of the specific RIPC factor and the mechanism by which RIPC alleviates I/R injury remains unclear. Here, we have investigated the identity and the mechanism by which the RIPC factor provides protection. APPROACH AND RESULTS: Using fluorescent in situ hybridization and immunofluorescence, we found that RIPC induces Nrg1β expression in the endothelial cells, which is secreted into the serum. Whereas, RIPC protected against myocardial apoptosis and infarction, treatment with neutralizing-Nrg1 antibodies abolished the protective effect of RIPC. Further, increased superoxide anion generated in RIPC is required for Nrg1 expression. Improved myocardial perfusion and nitric oxide production were achieved by RIPC as determined by contrast echocardiography and electron spin resonance. However, treatment with neutralizing-Nrg1β antibody abrogated these effects, suggesting Nrg1β is a RIPC factor. ErbB2 (Erb-B2 receptor tyrosine kinase 2) is not expressed in the adult murine cardiomyocytes, but expressed in the endothelial cells of heart which is degraded in I/R. RIPC-induced Nrg1β interacts with endothelial ErbB2 and thereby prevents its degradation. Mitochondrial Trx2 (thioredoxin) is degraded in I/R, but rescue of ErbB2 by Nrg1β prevents Trx-2 degradation that decreased myocardial apoptosis in I/R. CONCLUSIONS: Nrg1β is a RIPC factor that interacts with endothelial ErbB2 and prevents its degradation, which in turn prevents Trx2 degradation due to phosphorylation and inactivation of ATG5 (autophagy-related 5) by ErbB2. Nrg1β also restored loss of eNOS (endothelial nitric oxide synthase) function in I/R via its interaction with Src.

Int J Cardiol Hypertens 2021; 8:100081. [PMID: 33748739 PMCID: PMC7972960 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijchy.2021.100081] [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: 12/21/2020] [Revised: 02/08/2021] [Accepted: 02/18/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous work has evaluated the effect of remote ischaemic conditioning (RIC) in a number of clinical conditions (e.g. cardiac surgery and acute kidney injury), but only one analysis has examined blood pressure (BP) changes. While individual studies have reported the effects of acute bouts and repeated RIC exposure on resting BP, efficacy is equivocal. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the effects of acute and repeat RIC on BP. METHODS A systematic search was performed using PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library of Controlled Trials up until October 31, 2020. Additionally, manual searches of reference lists were performed. Studies that compared BP responses after exposing participants to either an acute bout or repeated cycles of RIC with a minimum one-week intervention period were considered. RESULTS Eighteen studies were included in this systematic review, ten examined acute effects while eight investigated repeat effects of RIC. Mean differences (MD) for outcome measures from acute RIC studies were: systolic BP 0.18 mmHg (95%CI -0.95, 1.31; p = 0.76), diastolic BP -0.43 mmHg (95%CI -2.36, 1.50; p = 0.66), MAP -1.73 mmHg (95%CI -3.11, -0.34; p = 0.01) and HR -1.15 bpm (95%CI -2.92, 0.62; p = 0.20). Only MAP was significantly reduced. Repeat RIC exposure showed non-significant change in systolic BP -3.23 mmHg (95%CI -6.57, 0.11; p = 0.06) and HR -0.16 bpm (95%CI -7.08, 6.77; p = 0.96) while diastolic BP -2.94 mmHg (95%CI -4.08, -1.79; p < 0.00001) and MAP -3.21 mmHg (95%CI -4.82, -1.61; p < 0.0001) were significantly reduced. CONCLUSIONS Our data suggests repeated, but not acute, RIC produced clinically meaningful reductions in diastolic BP and MAP.

Major intraoperative aneurysm rupture may increase the risk of cerebral infarction following surgical clipping of unruptured intracranial aneurysms. J Clin Neurosci 2020; 82:56-62. [PMID: 33317740 DOI: 10.1016/j.jocn.2020.10.029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2020] [Revised: 09/04/2020] [Accepted: 10/18/2020] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Intraoperative aneurysm rupture (IAR) could cause a poor outcome. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between IARs and postoperative cerebral infarctions (CIs). METHOD We retrospectively reviewed patients with asymptomatic unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs) who received microsurgical clipping in two neurosurgical centers from January 2016 to June 2019. A propensity score matching was done to constitute a cohort. The data were collected regarding the clinical and radiological characteristics. The CI at 1-2 weeks and the functional outcome at two weeks after clipping were recorded. Differences between IAR patients with CIs and without CIs were compared. The relationship between the IARs and postoperative CIs was investigated by using logistic regression analysis. RESULTS This study yielded 96 UIAs patients, including 48 patients undergoing IARs and 48 patients not. Twenty patients with CIs at 1-2 weeks after clipping were identified. The rate of CIs in patients undergoing IARs was higher than that in patients not undergoing IARs (OR, 2.88; p = 0.038); moreover, the mRS was also worse in patients undergoing IARs (OR, 1.58; p = 0.015). For patients undergoing IARs, the significance was found in ischemic cerebrovascular disease (OR, 6.40; p = 0.048), Essen stroke risk score (OR, 2.14; p = 0.026), and severity of intraoperative rupture (OR, 5.63; p = 0.023). The multivariate logistic analysis demonstrated the major IARs (OR, 6.09; CI, 1.18-31.53; p = 0.031) as the independent risk factor related to postoperative CI. CONCLUSION IARs could increase the risk of postoperative CIs and worsen the functional outcome, and major IAR was the independent risk factor related to the postoperative CIs.

Abstract
Background The main aim of this systematic review was to assess whether remote ischaemic preconditioning (RIPC) protects kidneys and the heart in cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and to investigate a possible role of anaesthetic agents. Methods Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) on the effects of RIPC through limb ischaemia in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB were searched (1965-October 2016) in PubMed, Cochrane Library and article reference lists. A random effects model on standardized mean difference (SMD) for continuous outcomes and the Peto odds ratio (OR) for dichotomous outcomes were used to meta-analyse data. Subgroup analyses to evaluate the effects of different anaesthetic regimens were pre-planned. Results Thirty-three RCTs (5999 participants) were included. In the whole group, RIPC did not significantly reduce the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI), acute myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, mortality or length of intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital stays. On the contrary, RIPC significantly reduced the area under the curve for myocardial injury biomarkers (MIBs) {SMD -0.37 [95% confidence interval (CI) -0.53 to - 0.21]} and the composite endpoint incidence [OR 0.85 (95% CI 0.74-0.97)]. In the volatile anaesthetic group, RIPC significantly reduced AKI incidence [OR 0.57 (95% CI 0.41-0.79)] and marginally reduced ICU stay. Conversely, except for MIBs, RIPC had fewer non-significant effects under propofol with or without volatile anaesthetics. Conclusions RIPC did not consistently reduce morbidity and mortality in adults undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB. In the subgroup on volatile anaesthetics only, RIPC markedly and significantly reduced the incidence of AKI and composite endpoint as well as myocardial injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ischemic preconditioning is an innate mechanism of cytoprotection against ischemia, with potential for end-organ protection. The primary goal of this study was to systematically review the literature to determine the effect of ischemic preconditioning on outcomes after open and endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair. METHODS The methodology followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines. We included randomized clinical trials that evaluated the effect of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) in reducing morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing open or endovascular AAA repair surgery. The primary outcomes were death, myocardial infarction, and renal impairment. Outcomes were addressed separately for open AAA repair and endovascular AAA repair (EVAR). Data were collected on patient characteristics, methodology, and preconditioning protocol for each trial. RESULTS Nine trials of ischemic preconditioning in aortic aneurysm surgery were included with a total of 599 patients; 336 patients were included in the open AAA repair meta-analysis, and 263 patients were included in the EVAR meta-analysis. For both open and endovascular repairs, ischemic preconditioning did not have a significant effect on death, myocardial infarction, or renal impairment requiring dialysis. CONCLUSIONS The randomized clinical trials investigating the effect of ischemic preconditioning on outcomes after open and endovascular AAA repair that have been completed to date have not been adequately powered to evaluate improvements in patient-important outcomes. The evidence is insufficient to support the use of ischemic preconditioning for AAA repair in clinical practice. The variability in treatment effect across studies may be explained by clinical and methodological heterogeneity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Conventional clinical wisdom has often been nihilistic regarding the prevention and management of acute kidney injury (AKI), despite its being a frequent and morbid complication associated with both increased mortality and cost. Recent developments have shown that AKI is not inevitable and that changes in management of patients can reduce both the incidence and morbidity of perioperative AKI. The purpose of this narrative review was to review the epidemiology and outcomes of AKI in patients undergoing vascular surgery using current consensus definitions, to discuss some of the novel emerging risk stratification and prevention techniques relevant to the vascular surgery patient, and to describe a standardized perioperative pathway for the prevention of AKI after vascular surgery. METHODS We performed a critical review of the literature on AKI in the vascular surgery patient using the PubMed and MEDLINE databases and Google Scholar through September 2017 using web-based search engines. We also searched the guidelines and publications available online from the organizations Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes and the Acute Dialysis Quality Initiative. The search terms used included acute kidney injury, AKI, epidemiology, outcomes, prevention, therapy, and treatment. RESULTS The reported epidemiology and outcomes associated with AKI have been evolving since the publication of consensus criteria that allow accurate identification of mild and moderate AKI. The incidence of AKI after major vascular surgery using current criteria is as high as 49%, although there are significant differences, depending on the type of procedure performed. Many tools have become available to assess and to stratify the risk for AKI and to use that information to prevent AKI in the surgical patient. We describe a standardized clinical assessment and management pathway for vascular surgery patients, incorporating current risk assessment and preventive strategies to prevent AKI and to decrease its complications. Patients without any risk factors can be managed in a perioperative fast-track pathway. Those patients with positive risk factors are tested for kidney stress using the urinary biomarker TIMP-2•IGFBP7, and care is then stratified according to the result. Management follows current Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes guidelines. CONCLUSIONS AKI is a common postoperative complication among vascular surgery patients and has a significant impact on morbidity, mortality, and cost. Preoperative risk assessment and optimal perioperative management guided by that risk assessment can minimize the consequences associated with postoperative AKI. Adherence to a standardized perioperative pathway designed to reduce risk of AKI after major vascular surgery offers a promising clinical approach to mitigate the incidence and severity of this challenging clinical problem.

Abstract
Background Remote ischaemic preconditioning (RIPC) is a cardioprotective intervention invoking intermittent periods of ischaemia in a tissue or organ remote from the heart. The mechanisms of this effect are incompletely understood. We hypothesised that RIPC might enhance coronary vasodilatation by an endothelium-dependent mechanism. Methods We performed a prospective, randomised, sham-controlled, blinded clinical trial. Patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) undergoing elective invasive management were prospectively enrolled, and randomised to RIPC or sham (1:1) prior to angiography. Endothelial-dependent vasodilator function was assessed in a non-target coronary artery with intracoronary infusion of incremental acetylcholine doses (10− 6, 10− 5, 10− 4 mol/l). Venous blood was sampled pre- and post-RIPC or sham, and analysed for circulating markers of endothelial function. Coronary luminal diameter was assessed by quantitative coronary angiography. The primary outcome was the between-group difference in the mean percentage change in coronary luminal diameter following the maximal acetylcholine dose (Clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT02666235). Results 75 patients were enrolled. Following angiography, 60 patients (mean ± SD age 57.5 ± 8.5 years; 80% male) were eligible and completed the protocol (n = 30 RIPC, n = 30 sham). The mean percentage change in coronary luminal diameter was − 13.3 ± 22.3% and − 2.0 ± 17.2% in the sham and RIPC groups respectively (difference 11.32%, 95%CI: 1.2– 21.4, p = 0.032). This remained significant when age and sex were included as covariates (difference 11.01%, 95%CI: 1.01– 21.0, p = 0.035). There were no between-group differences in endothelial-independent vasodilation, ECG parameters or circulating markers of endothelial function. Conclusions RIPC attenuates the extent of vasoconstriction induced by intracoronary acetylcholine infusion. This endothelium-dependent mechanism may contribute to the cardioprotective effects of RIPC.

Abstract
Rapid admission and acute interventional treatment combined with modern antithrombotic pharmacologic therapy have improved outcomes in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction. The next major target to further advance outcomes needs to address ischemia-reperfusion injury, which may contribute significantly to the final infarct size and hence mortality and postinfarction heart failure. Mechanical conditioning strategies including local and remote ischemic pre-, per-, and postconditioning have demonstrated consistent cardioprotective capacities in experimental models of acute ischemia-reperfusion injury. Their translation to the clinical scenario has been challenging. At present, the most promising mechanical protection strategy of the heart seems to be remote ischemic conditioning, which increases myocardial salvage beyond acute reperfusion therapy. An additional aspect that has gained recent focus is the potential of extended conditioning strategies to improve physical rehabilitation not only after an acute ischemia-reperfusion event such as acute myocardial infarction and cardiac surgery but also in patients with heart failure. Experimental and preliminary clinical evidence suggests that remote ischemic conditioning may modify cardiac remodeling and additionally enhance skeletal muscle strength therapy to prevent muscle waste, known as an inherent component of a postoperative period and in heart failure. Blood flow restriction exercise and enhanced external counterpulsation may represent cardioprotective corollaries. Combined with exercise, remote ischemic conditioning or, alternatively, blood flow restriction exercise may be of aid in optimizing physical rehabilitation in populations that are not able to perform exercise practice at intensity levels required to promote optimal outcomes.

Abstract
Acute SAH from a ruptured intracranial aneurysm contributes for 30% of all hemorrhagic strokes. The bleeding itself occurs in the subarachnoid space. Nevertheless, injury to the brain parenchyma occurs as a consequence of the bleeding, directly, via several well-defined mechanisms and pathways, but also indirectly, or secondarily. This secondary brain injury following SAH has a variety of causes and possible mechanisms. Amongst others, inflammatory events have been shown to occur in parallel to, contribute to, or even to initiate programmed cell death (PCD) within the central nervous system (CNS) in human and animal studies alike. Mechanisms of secondary brain injury are of utmost interest not only to scientists, but also to clinicians, as they often provide possibilities for translational approaches as well as distinct time windows for tailored treatment options. In this article, we review secondary brain injury due to inflammatory changes, that occur on cellular, as well as on molecular level in the various different compartments of the CNS: the brain vessels, the subarachnoid space, and the brain parenchyma itself and hypothesize about possible signaling mechanisms between these compartments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Efficacy of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) for cardioprotection in cardiac surgery is controversial. We aimed to evaluate the clinical and molecular effects of RIPC on the concentrically hypertrophied myocardium. METHODS Seventy-two aortic stenosis patients receiving aortic valve replacement (AVR) under sevoflurane anesthesia were randomly allocated to RIPC (3cycles of 5-min inflation [300mmHg] and deflation on the left arm) or control (deflated cuff placement) group. The primary endpoints were 24-h area under the curve (AUC) for serum creatine kinase (CK)-MB and troponin (Tn)-T levels. The secondary endpoints were myocardial activation of cell signaling pathways, including reperfusion injury salvage kinases (RISK), signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT), nitric oxide synthase (NOS), and apoptosis related molecules, obtained from right atrial tissue before and after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). RESULTS There were no intergroup differences in 24-h AUCs of CK-MB and Tn-T. Phosphorylations of RISK pathway molecules were not enhanced by RIPC before and after CPB. Phosphorylation of STAT5 was significantly lower in the RIPC group before and after CPB. Phosphorylations of STAT3 and endothelial NOS were not enhanced by RIPC before and after CPB. Expression level of cleaved caspases-3/caspase-3 was significantly higher in the RIPC group before CPB. CONCLUSIONS RIPC did not provide clinical benefits or activate protective signaling in patients with concentric left ventricular hypertrophy undergoing AVR.

Abstract
Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) by repeated brief cycles of limb ischemia/reperfusion reduces myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. In left ventricular (LV) biopsies from patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), only the activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 5 was associated with RIPC’s cardioprotection. We have now used an unbiased, non-hypothesis-driven proteomics and phosphoproteomics approach to analyze LV biopsies from patients undergoing CABG and from pigs undergoing coronary occlusion/reperfusion without (sham) and with RIPC. False discovery rate-based statistics identified a higher prostaglandin reductase 2 expression at early reperfusion with RIPC than with sham in patients. In pigs, the phosphorylation of 116 proteins was different between baseline and early reperfusion with RIPC and/or with sham. The identified proteins were not identical for patients and pigs, but in-silico pathway analysis of proteins with ≥2-fold higher expression/phosphorylation at early reperfusion with RIPC in comparison to sham revealed a relation to mitochondria and cytoskeleton in both species. Apart from limitations of the proteomics analysis per se, the small cohorts, the sampling/sample processing and the number of uncharacterized/unverifiable porcine proteins may have contributed to this largely unsatisfactory result.

Abstract
Perioperative myocardial ischemia and infarction are the leading causes of morbidity and mortality following anesthesia and surgery. The discovery of endogenous cardioprotective mechanisms has led to testing of new methods to protect the human heart. These approaches have included ischemic pre-conditioning, per-conditioning, post-conditioning, and remote conditioning of the myocardium. Pre-conditioning and per-conditioning include brief and repetitive periods of sub-lethal ischemia before and during prolonged ischemia, respectively; and post-conditioning is applied at the onset of reperfusion. Remote ischemic conditioning involves transient, repetitive, non-lethal ischemia and reperfusion in one organ or tissue (remote from the heart) that renders myocardium more resistant to lethal ischemia/reperfusion injury. In healthy, young hearts, many conditioning maneuvers can significantly increase the resistance of the heart against ischemia/reperfusion injury. The large multicenter clinical trials with ischemic remote conditioning have not been proven successful in cardiac surgery thus far. The lack of clinical success is due to underlying risk factors that interfere with remote ischemic conditioning and the use of cardioprotective agents that have activated the endogenous cardioprotective mechanisms prior to remote ischemic conditioning. Future preclinical research using remote ischemic conditioning will need to be conducted using comorbid models.

Abstract
Over the course of the last 2 decades, the concept of remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) has attracted considerable research interest, because RIC, in most of its embodiments offers an inexpensive way of protecting tissues against ischemic damage inflicted by a number of medical conditions or procedures. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common side effect in the context of various medical procedures, and RIC has been suggested as a means of reducing its incidence. Outcomes regarding kidney function have been reported in numerous studies that evaluated the effects of RIC in a variety of settings (eg, cardiac surgery, interventions requiring intravenous administration of contrast media). Although several individual studies have implied a beneficial effect of RIC in preserving kidney function, 3 recently published randomized controlled trials evaluating more than 1000 patients each (Effect of Remote Ischemic Preconditioning in the Cardiac Surgery, Remote Ischaemic Preconditioning for Heart Surgery, and ERICCA) were negative. However, AKI or any other index of renal function was not a stand-alone primary end point in any of these trials. On the other hand, a range of meta-analyses (each including thousands of participants) have reported mixed results, with the most recent among them showing benefit from RIC, pinpointing at the same time a number of shortcomings in published studies, adversely affecting the quality of available data. The present review provides a critical appraisal of the current state of this field of research. It is the opinion of the authors of this review that there is a clear need for a common clinical trial framework for ischemic conditioning studies. If the current babel of definitions, procedures, outcomes, and goals persists, it is most likely that soon ischemic conditioning will be "yesterday's news" with no definitive conclusions having been reached in terms of its real clinical utility.

Abstract
An as-yet limited body of evidence suggests that calcium-regulating endocrine hormones-in particular, parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTHrP)-may have unappreciated cardioprotective effects. The current review focuses on the concept that PTHrP may, via modulation of classic cardioprotective signaling pathways, provide a novel strategy to attenuate myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cognitive function impairment is one of the most common complications in elderly patients after surgery, and an ideal nonpharmacological therapy has not yet been identified. Thus, we hypothesized that remote ischemic preconditioning could improve cognitive functions in elderly patients after surgery and investigated the mechanism underlying this effect. METHODS Ninety patients classified as American Society of Anaesthesiologists (ASA) physical status of 2 or 3 and aged 65 to 75 years who were scheduled for elective colon surgery under general anesthesia were randomly allocated to either a remote ischemic preconditioning group (Group R, n = 45) or a control group (Group C, n = 45). Remote ischemic preconditioning was performed by applying a static pressure of 200 mm Hg with a blood pressure cuff wrapped around the right upper limb for 3 ischemia cycles of 5 minutes each. RESULTS The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scores between the 2 groups were not significantly different on the day before surgery or the seventh day after surgery, but the scores on the first day after surgery (26.87 ± 0.84 vs 25.96 ± 0.85, P < .001) and third day after surgery (27.49 ± 0.66 vs 27.02 ± 0.92, P = .009) were significantly higher for Group R than those for Group C. Moreover, remote ischemic preconditioning markedly decreased the serum concentrations of the interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and S100B proteins compared with the control group (P < .001). CONCLUSION Remote ischemic preconditioning improves postoperative cognitive function in elderly patients following colon surgery. The cognitive protective effects of remote ischemic preconditioning are partially related to the inhibition of inflammation.

Effects of Renal Ischemic Postconditioning on Myocardial Ultrastructural Organization and Myocardial Expression of Bcl-2/Bax in Rabbits. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2017; 2016:9349437.

Abstract
We investigated the cardioprotective effect of renal ischemic postconditioning (RI-PostC) and its mechanisms in a rabbit model. Rabbits underwent 60 min of left anterior descending coronary artery occlusion (LADO) and 6 h of reperfusion. The ischemia-reperfusion (IR) group underwent LADO and reperfusion only. In the RI-PostC group, the left renal artery underwent 3 cycles of occlusion for 30 seconds and release for 30 seconds, before the coronary artery was reperfused. In the RI-PostC + GF109203X group, the rabbits received 0.05 mg/kg GF109203X (protein kinase C inhibitor) intravenously for 10 min followed by RI-PostC. Light microscopy and electron microscopy demonstrated that the RI-PostC group showed less pronounced changes, a smaller infarct region, and less apoptosis than the other two groups. Bcl-2 and Bax protein expression did not differ between the IR and RI-PostC + GF109203X groups. However, in the RI-PostC group, Bcl-2 protein expression was significantly higher and Bax protein expression was significantly lower than in the other two groups (P < 0.05). Changes in heart rate and mean arterial pressure were also smaller in the RI-PostC group than in the other two groups. These results indicate that RI-PostC can ameliorate myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury and increase the Bcl-2/Bax ratio through a mechanism involving protein kinase C.

Abstract
In this meeting report, particularly addressing the topic of protection of the cardiovascular system from ischemia/reperfusion injury, highlights are presented that relate to conditioning strategies of the heart with respect to molecular mechanisms and outcome in patients' cohorts, the influence of co-morbidities and medications, as well as the contribution of innate immune reactions in cardioprotection. Moreover, developmental or systems biology approaches bear great potential in systematically uncovering unexpected components involved in ischemia-reperfusion injury or heart regeneration. Based on the characterization of particular platelet integrins, mitochondrial redox-linked proteins, or lipid-diol compounds in cardiovascular diseases, their targeting by newly developed theranostics and technologies opens new avenues for diagnosis and therapy of myocardial infarction to improve the patients' outcome.

Abstract
An emerging treatment modality for reducing damage caused by ischaemia–reperfusion injury is ischaemic conditioning. This technique induces short periods of ischaemia that have been found to protect against a more significant ischaemic insult. Remote ischaemic conditioning (RIC) can be administered more conveniently and safely, by inflation of a pneumatic blood pressure cuff to a suprasystolic pressure on a limb. Protection is then transferred to a remote organ via humoral and neural pathways. The diabetic state is particularly vulnerable to ischaemia–reperfusion injury, and ischaemia is a significant cause of many diabetic complications, including the diabetic foot. Despite this, studies utilising ischaemic conditioning and RIC in type 2 diabetes have often been disappointing. A newer strategy, repeat RIC, involves the repeated application of short periods of limb ischaemia over days or weeks. It has been demonstrated that this improves endothelial function, skin microcirculation, and modulates the systemic inflammatory response. Repeat RIC was recently shown to be beneficial for healing in lower extremity diabetic ulcers. This article summarises the mechanisms of RIC, and the impact that type 2 diabetes may have upon these, with the role of neural mechanisms in the context of diabetic neuropathy a focus. Repeat RIC may show more promise than RIC in type 2 diabetes, and its potential mechanisms and applications will also be explored. Considering the high costs, rates of chronicity and serious complications resulting from diabetic lower extremity ulceration, repeat RIC has the potential to be an effective novel advanced therapy for this condition.
