Explore novel molecular mechanisms of FNDC5 in ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury by analyzing transcriptome changes in mouse model of skeletal muscle I/R injury with FNDC5 knockout. Cell Signal 2024; 113:110959. [PMID: 37918465 DOI: 10.1016/j.cellsig.2023.110959] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2023] [Revised: 10/18/2023] [Accepted: 10/30/2023] [Indexed: 11/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Irisin, a myokine derived from proteolytic cleavage of the fibronectin type III domain-containing protein 5 (FNDC5) protein, is crucial in protecting tissues and organs from ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. However, the underlying mechanism of its action remains elusive. In this study, we investigated the expression patterns of genes associated with FNDC5 knockout to gain insights into its molecular functions. METHODS We employed a mouse model of skeletal muscle I/R injury with FNDC5 knockout to examine the transcriptional profiles using RNA sequencing. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified and subjected to further analyses, including gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment, protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis, and miRNA-transcription factor network analysis. The bioinformatics findings were validated using qRT-PCR and Western blotting. RESULTS Comparative analysis of skeletal muscle transcriptomes between wild-type (WT; C57BL/6), WT-I/R, FNDC5 knockout (KO), and KO-I/R mice highlighted the significance of FNDC5 in both physiological conditions and I/R injury. Through PPI network analysis, we identified seven key genes (Col6a2, Acta2, Col4a5, Fap, Enpep, Mmp11, and Fosl1), which facilitated the construction of a TF-hub genes-miRNA regulatory network. Additionally, our results suggested that the PI3K-Akt pathway is predominantly involved in FNDC5 deletion-mediated I/R injury in skeletal muscle. Animal studies revealed reduced FNDC5 expression in skeletal muscle following I/R injury, and the gastrocnemius muscle with FNDC5 knockout exhibited larger infarct size and more severe tissue damage after I/R. Moreover, Western blot analysis confirmed the upregulation of Col6a2, Enpep, and Mmp11 protein levels following I/R, particularly in the KO-I/R group. Furthermore, FNDC5 deletion inhibited the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway. CONCLUSION This study demonstrates that FNDC5 deletion exacerbates skeletal muscle I/R injury, potentially involving the upregulation of Col6a2, Enpep, and Mmp11. Additionally, the findings suggest the involvement of the PI3K-Akt pathway in FNDC5 deletion-mediated skeletal muscle I/R injury, providing novel insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying FNDC5's role in this pathological process.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Skeletal muscle ischemia-reperfusion injuries result in a loss of contractile function, leading to limb disability or amputation. Ischemia causes hypoxia and cellular energy failure, which is aggravated by reperfusion due to the inflammatory response and oxidative stress. The consequences of the injury vary according to the duration of the period of ischemia and reperfusion. Therefore, the present work aims to evaluate ischemia-reperfusion injuries induced in the skeletal muscles of Wistar rats submitted to 3 different application periods based on morphological and biochemical parameters. METHODS For this, a tourniquet was applied to the root of the animals' hind limbs, occluding arterial and venous blood flow, and it was followed by reperfusion-the removal of the tourniquet. The groups were: control (without tourniquet); I30'/R60' (30 minutes of ischemia and 1 hour of reperfusion); I120'/R120' (2 hours and 2 hours); and I180'/R180' (3 hours and 3 hours). RESULTS All ischemia-reperfusion groups showed characteristics of muscle injury. Microscopic analyses of the extensor digitorum longus, soleus, tibialis anterior, and gastrocnemius muscles showed a significant increase in the number of injured muscle fibers in the ischemia-reperfusion groups compared to the control group. There were also significant differences between the ischemia-reperfusion groups in all muscles, showing a progressive increase in the degree of injury. The quantification of the number of injured muscle fibers between the muscles revealed that at I30'/R60', the soleus muscles had a higher number of injuries in relation to the other muscles, with statistical significance. In the I120'/R120' group, the gastrocnemius muscles presented a significantly greater number of injured fibers. There were no significant differences in the I180'/R180' group. The serum levels of creatine kinase in the I180'/R180' group were significantly higher than in the control and I30'/R60' groups. CONCLUSIONS Therefore, it was evident that the 3 ischemia-reperfusion models used were capable of causing cell damage, with these findings being more pronounced in the I180'/R180' group.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim: To establish indicators and significance of sonography in the evaluation of muscle necrosis in ischemia of the limb acording to quantitative ultrasonographic indicators and density of collagen by histological method. PATIENTS AND METHODS Materials and methods: In experiments, rabbits modeled with 6-hour limb ischemia by applying an elastic tourniquet. On days 5, 15, and 30, ultrasound and histological studies of the muscles and correlation analysis were performed between the muscles' entropy and the degree of their damage (atrophy, fibrosis and necrosis). RESULTS Results: The relative amount of structurally altered tissue was estimated morphometrically and compared with entropy. A high correlation of muscle damage with vertical δ-entropy indicates that sonography is highly likely to detect areas of necrosis and, to a lesser extent, fibrosis in the development of ischemic limb contracture in the early stages. CONCLUSION Conclusions: Vertical δ-entropy in sonography is a significant indicator of muscle damage after traumatic ischemia and has strong relationship with muscle fibrosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the protective effect of tramadol on renal tissue in rats with induced renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (I/R injury), and its effects on oxidative stress. MATERIAL AND METHODS Thirty adult, male Wistar rats weighing 250-300 g were selected as subjects. Rats were randomized into 3 groups: group 1, sham; group 2, renal I/R injury; and group 3, renal I/R+Tramadol. In order to obtain ischemia in groups 2 and 3, renal artery was clamped for 1 h. Total oxidant status (TOS) and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) were analyzed using biochemical assays in the serum samples. RESULTS TOS values were measured as 1.68±0.4 in group 1, 3.35±1.0 in group 2, and 3.49±0.9 in group 3. When group 1 was compared with group 2 and group 3, the TOS values of group 1 were significantly lower (p<0.05), whereas there was no difference between group 2 and group 3 (p>0.05). TAC values were measured as 1.65±1.4 in group 1, 1.85±0.1 in group 2, and 2.79±0.6 in group 3. The antioxidant status of group 1 was not significantly different from that of group 2 (p>0.05), whereas there was a significant difference between group 1 and group 3 (p>0.05). CONCLUSIONS Tramadol has positive effects on antioxidant levels in renal I/R injury. We think that tramadol may be used in patients who underwent renal surgery and have I/R injury risk. There is a need for studies on this subject including human series.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Skeletal muscle ischaemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) can be a life threatening condition. It is relevant to various aspects of the management of trauma and surgical patients. Currently there lacks a pharmacological agent that can be used to dampen the effects of IRI. Riluzole has been shown to reduce the effects of IRI on various organ systems, but there have yet to be any studies on the effects in IRI of skeletal muscle. Our aim was to investigate the effects of Riluzole on IRI in the skeletal muscle of pigs. METHODS Twenty-two pigs were randomly divided into groups. Riluzole was administered before ligation of the femoral artery to produce ischaemia in the tibialis anterior muscle in the experimental group but not the control group. The microscopic appearance of muscles were recorded, a TUNEL assay was used to identify DNA damage and glutathione levels were measured. RESULTS In the Riluzole group, muscle fibres appeared less wavy and less oedematous compared to the control group. The Riluzole group also had less evidence of DNA fragmentation on the TUNEL assay. The glutathione levels in the Riluzole group were also significantly greater than the control group. DISCUSSION Our findings suggest that Riluzole can potentially reduce the effects of IRI on skeletal muscle. This is potentially due to the ability of Riluzole to block sodium channels, decreasing action potentials and therefore glutamate release. It also acts to decrease intracellular calcium levels, which prevents apoptosis. Riluzole is a promising drug for the prevention of IRI in skeletal muscle, but further research is required.

Abstract
Kidneys have an important role in regulating water volume, blood pressure, secretion of hormones and acid-base and electrolyte balance. Kidney dysfunction derived from acute injury can, under certain conditions, progress to chronic kidney disease. In the late stages of kidney disease, treatment is limited to replacement therapy: Dialysis and transplantation. After renal transplant, grafts suffer from activation of immune cells and generation of oxidant molecules. Anesthetic preconditioning has emerged as a promising strategy to ameliorate ischemia reperfusion injury. This review compiles some significant aspects of renal physiology and discusses current understanding of the effects of anesthetic preconditioning upon renal function and ischemia reperfusion injury, focusing on opioids and its properties ameliorating renal injury. According to the available evidence, opioid preconditioning appears to reduce inflammation and reactive oxygen species generation after ischemia reperfusion. Therefore, opioid preconditioning represents a promising strategy to reduce renal ischemia reperfusion injury and, its application on current clinical practice could be beneficial in events such as acute renal injury and kidney transplantation.

Abstract
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a common circulatory disorder of the lower limb arteries that reduces functional capacity and quality of life of patients. Despite relatively effective available treatments, PAD is a serious public health issue associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) cycles during PAD are responsible for insufficient oxygen supply, mitochondriopathy, free radical production, and inflammation and lead to events that contribute to myocyte death and remote organ failure. However, the chronology of mitochondrial and cellular events during the ischemic period and at the moment of reperfusion in skeletal muscle fibers has been poorly reviewed. Thus, after a review of the basal myocyte state and normal mitochondrial biology, we discuss the physiopathology of ischemia and reperfusion at the mitochondrial and cellular levels. First we describe the chronology of the deleterious biochemical and mitochondrial mechanisms activated by I/R. Then we discuss skeletal muscle I/R injury in the muscle environment, mitochondrial dynamics, and inflammation. A better understanding of the chronology of the events underlying I/R will allow us to identify key factors in the development of this pathology and point to suitable new therapies. Emerging data on mitochondrial dynamics should help identify new molecular and therapeutic targets and develop protective strategies against PAD.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to assess the effects of naloxone, an opioid receptor antagonist, on the renal injury as a remote organ after hepatic ischemia reperfusion (IR) in rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty male Wistar rats were randomly allocated into four groups as follows: sham, sham + naloxone, IR and IR + naloxone. In anesthetized rats, hepatic ischemia was applied for 30 min in IR and IR + naloxone groups. Sham + naloxone and IR + naloxone groups were given naloxone (3.0 mg/kg, iv) 30 min before ischemia. After 24 h, blood and tissue samples were obtained for histopathological, tissue malondialdehyde (MDA) and biochemical analyses. RESULTS Histopathological study of liver in IR group showed enlarged sinusoids, sinusoidal congestion, cellular degenerative changes and necrosis. The kidney of the rats with hepatic IR showed pathological changes in tubular cell swelling, tubular dilatation, moderate to severe necrosis, glomerular fibrosis and hemorrhage. Histological examination confirmed the extent of hepatic and renal changes in IR group was higher (P < 0.05) than in other groups. Rats that underwent hepatic IR exhibited significant increase in serum concentrations of urea and creatinine levels (P < 0.05). The serum alanine aminotransferase and aminotransferase values were significantly higher in IR group compared to the other groups (P < 0.05). Liver IR produced a significant increase in hepatic and renal tissue MDA levels, while pretreatment with naloxone was associated with a significantly lower MDA levels (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The results of this study showed that naloxone pretreatment protected the renal injury from hepatic IR.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Limb ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) causes remote organ injury (e.g., liver injury). Oxidation and inflammation are crucial mechanisms. We investigated the effects of cepharanthine, a potent antioxidative and anti-inflammatory drug, on alleviating liver injury induced by limb I/R. METHODS Twenty-four adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized to receive sham operation (Sham), Sham plus cepharanthine, I/R, or I/R plus cepharanthine and designated as the Sham, Sham+Cep, I/R, or I/R+Cep group, respectively (n = 6 in each group). I/R was induced by applying rubber band tourniquets high around each hind limb for 3 hours followed by reperfusion for 24 hours. RESULTS The plasma levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) of the Sham and Sham+Cep groups were low, and the levels of AST and ALT of the I/R group were significantly higher than those of the Sham group (both p<0.001). By contrast, the AST and ALT of the I/R+Cep group were significantly lower than those of the I/R group (both p<0.001). The hepatic levels of nitric oxide (NO), malondialdehyde (MDA), macrophage inflammatory protein 2 (MIP-2), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2)/prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) of the Sham and Sham+Cep groups were also low. As expected, the NO, MDA, MIP-2, IL-6, and COX-2/PGE2 of the I/R group were significantly higher than those of the Sham group (all p<0.001). By contrast, the NO, MDA, MIP-2, IL-6, and COX-2/PGE2 of the I/R+Cep group were significantly lower than those of the I/R group (all p<0.05). CONCLUSION Cepharanthine alleviates liver injury in a rodent model of limb I/R. The mechanisms may involve reducing oxidation and inflammation.

Salutary Effects of Cepharanthine against Skeletal Muscle and Kidney Injuries following Limb Ischemia/Reperfusion. EVIDENCE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE 2015; 2015:504061.

Abstract
Limb ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) causes oxidation and inflammation and subsequently induces muscle and kidney injuries. Cepharanthine, a natural plant alkaloid, possesses anti-inflammatory and antioxidative properties. We elucidated the salutary effects of cepharanthine against muscle and kidney injuries following limb I/R. Adult male rats were randomized to receive I/R or I/R plus cepharanthine. I/R was achieved by applying tourniquet high around each thigh for 3 hours followed by reperfusion for 24 hours. Cepharanthine (10 mg/kg, intraperitoneal) was injected immediately before reperfusion. After euthanization, degrees of tissue injury, inflammation, and oxidation were examined. Our data revealed that the I/R group had significant increases in injury biomarker concentrations of muscle (creatine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase) and kidney (creatinine, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, and kidney injury molecule-1). Histological assays revealed moderate muscle and kidney injury characteristics in the I/R group. The I/R group also had significant increases in concentrations of inflammatory molecules (interleukin-6, macrophage inflammatory protein-2, and prostaglandin E2) and reactive nitrogen species (nitric oxide) as well as lipid peroxidation (malondialdehyde). Of note, these effects of limb I/R could be mitigated by cepharanthine. These data confirmed that cepharanthine attenuated muscle and kidney injuries induced by limb I/R. The mechanisms may involve its anti-inflammatory and antioxidative capacities.

Abstract
Background Organ injury occurs not only during periods of ischemia but also during
reperfusion. It is known that ischemia reperfusion (IR) causes both remote organ
and local injuries. Objective This study evaluated the effects of tramadol on the heart as a remote organ after
acute hindlimb IR. Methods Thirty healthy mature male Wistar rats were allocated randomly into three groups:
Group I (sham), Group II (IR), and Group III (IR + tramadol). Ischemia was induced
in anesthetized rats by left femoral artery clamping for 3 h, followed by 3 h of
reperfusion. Tramadol (20 mg/kg, intravenous) was administered immediately prior
to reperfusion. At the end of the reperfusion, animals were euthanized, and hearts
were harvested for histological and biochemical examination. Results The levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione
peroxidase (GPx) were higher in Groups I and III than those in Group II (p <
0.05). In comparison with other groups, tissue malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in
Group II were significantly increased (p < 0.05), and this increase was
prevented by tramadol. Histopathological changes, including microscopic bleeding,
edema, neutrophil infiltration, and necrosis, were scored. The total injuryscore
in Group III was significantly decreased (p < 0.05) compared with Group II. Conclusion From the histological and biochemical perspectives, treatment with tramadol
alleviated the myocardial injuries induced by skeletal muscle IR in this
experimental model.
