Abstract
Exercise has the unique aptitude to benefit overall health of body and brain. Evidence indicates that the effects of exercise can be saved in the epigenome for considerable time to elevate the threshold for various diseases. The action of exercise on epigenetic regulation seems central to building an "epigenetic memory" to influence long-term brain function and behavior. As an intrinsic bioenergetic process, exercise engages the function of the mitochondria and redox pathways to impinge upon molecular mechanisms that regulate synaptic plasticity and learning and memory. We discuss how the action of exercise uses mechanisms of bioenergetics to support a "epigenetic memory" with long-term implications for neural and behavioral plasticity. This information is crucial for directing the power of exercise to reduce the burden of neurological and psychiatric disorders.

[PMID: 39050221 PMCID: PMC11265631 DOI: 10.5847/wjem.j.1920-8642.2024.059] [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: 07/29/2023] [Accepted: 12/25/2023] [Indexed: 07/27/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND There are currently no effective drugs to mitigate the ischemia/reperfusion injury caused by fluid resuscitation after hemorrhagic shock (HS). The aim of this study was to explore the potential of the histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6)-specific inhibitor tubastatin A (TubA) to suppress nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation in macrophages under hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) conditions. METHODS The viability of RAW264.7 cells subjected to H/R after treatment with different concentrations of TubA was assessed using a cell-counting kit-8 (CCK8) assay. Briefly, 2.5 μmol/L TubA was used with RAW264.7 cells under H/R condition. RAW264.7 cells were divided into three groups, namely the control, H/R, and TubA groups. The levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the cells were detected using fluorescence microscopy. The protein expression of HDAC6, heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), NLRP3, gasdermin-D (GSDMD), Caspase-1, GSDMD-N, and Caspase-1 p20 was detected by western blotting. The levels of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-18 in the supernatants were detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS HDAC6, Hsp90, and iNOS expression levels were significantly higher (P<0.01) in the H/R group than in the control group, but lower in the TubA group than in the H/R group (P<0.05). When comparing the H/R group to the control group, ROS levels were significantly higher (P<0.01), but significantly reduced in the TubA group (P<0.05). The H/R group had higher NLRP3, GSDMD, Caspase-1, GSDMD-N, and Caspase-1 p20 expression levels than the control group (P<0.05), however, the TubA group had significantly lower expression levels than the H/R group (P<0.05). IL-1β and IL-18 levels in the supernatants were significantly higher in the H/R group compared to the control group (P<0.01), but significantly lower in the TubA group compared to the H/R group (P<0.01). CONCLUSION TubA inhibited the expression of HDAC6, Hsp90, and iNOS in macrophages subjected to H/R. This inhibition led to a decrease in the content of ROS in cells, which subsequently inhibited the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome and the secretion of IL-1β and IL-18.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Advanced mass spectrometry methods were leveraged to analyze both proteomics and metabolomics signatures in plasma upon controlled tissue injury (TI) and hemorrhagic shock (HS)-isolated or combined-in a swine model, followed by correlation to viscoelastic measurements of coagulopathy via thrombelastography. BACKGROUND TI and HS cause distinct molecular changes in plasma in both animal models and trauma patients. However, the contribution to coagulopathy of trauma, the leading cause of preventable mortality in this patient population remains unclear. The recent development of a swine model for isolated or combined TI+HS facilitated the current study. METHODS Male swine (n=17) were randomized to either isolated or combined TI and HS. Coagulation status was analyzed by thrombelastography during the monitored time course. The plasma fractions of the blood draws (at baseline; end of shock; and at 30 minutes, 1, 2, and 4 hours after shock) were analyzed by mass spectrometry-based proteomics and metabolomics workflows. RESULTS HS-isolated or combined with TI-caused the most severe omic alterations during the monitored time course. While isolated TI delayed the activation of coagulation cascades. Correlation to thrombelastography parameters of clot strength (maximum amplitude) and breakdown (LY30) revealed signatures of coagulopathy which were supported by analysis of gene ontology-enriched biological pathways. CONCLUSION The current study provides a comprehensive characterization of proteomic and metabolomic alterations to combined or isolated TI and HS in a swine model and identifies early and late omics correlates to viscoelastic measurements in this system.

Abstract
RNA interference can be applied to different target genes for treating a variety of diseases, but an appropriate delivery system is necessary to ensure the transport of intact siRNAs to the site of action. In this study, cellulose was dually modified to create a non-viral vector for HDAC3 short interfering RNA (siRNA) transfer into cells. A guanidinium group introduced positive charges into the cellulose to allow complexation of negatively charged genetic material. Furthermore, a biotin group fixed by a polyethylene glycol (PEG) spacer was attached to the polymer to allow, if required, the binding of targeting ligands. The resulting polyplexes with HDAC3 siRNA had a size below 200 nm and a positive zeta potential of up to 15 mV. For N/P ratio 2 and higher, the polymer could efficiently complex siRNA. Nanoparticles, based on this dually modified derivative, revealed a low cytotoxicity. Only minor effects on the endothelial barrier integrity and a transfection efficiency in HEK293 cells higher than Lipofectamine 2000TM were found. The uptake and release of the polyplexes were confirmed by immunofluorescence imaging. This study indicates that the modified biopolymer is an auspicious biocompatible non-viral vector with biotin as a promising moiety.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It has previously been shown that administration of valproic acid (VPA) can improve outcomes if given within an hour following traumatic brain injury (TBI). This short therapeutic window (TW) limits its use in real-life situations. Based upon its pharmacokinetic data, we hypothesized that TW can be extended to 3 hours if a second dose of VPA is given 8 hours after the initial dose. METHOD Yorkshire swine (40-45 kg; n = 10) were subjected to TBI (controlled cortical impact) and 40% blood volume hemorrhage. After 2 hours of shock, they were randomized to either (1) normal saline resuscitation (control) or (2) normal saline-VPA (150 mg/kg × two doses). First dose of VPA was started 3 hours after the TBI, with a second dose 8 hours after the first dose. Neurologic severity scores (range, 0-36) were assessed daily for 14 days, and brain lesion size was measured via magnetic resonance imaging on postinjury day 3. RESULTS Hemodynamic and laboratory parameters of shock were similar in both groups. Valproic acid-treated animals had significantly less neurologic impairment on days 2 (16.3 ± 2.0 vs. 7.3 ± 2.8) and 3 (10.9 ± 3.6 vs. 2.8 ± 1.1) postinjury and returned to baseline levels 54% faster. Magnetic resonance imaging showed no differences in brain lesion size on day 3. Pharmacokinetic data confirmed neuroprotective levels of VPA in the circulation. CONCLUSION This is the first study to demonstrate that VPA can be neuroprotective even when given 3 hours after TBI. This expanded TW has significant implications for the design of the clinical trial.

Abstract
Sepsis is a life-threatening disease caused by a systemic infection that triggers a dysregulated immune response. Sepsis is an important cause of death in intensive care units (ICUs), poses a major threat to human health, and is a common cause of death in ICUs worldwide. The pathogenesis of sepsis is intricate and involves a complex interplay of pro- and anti-inflammatory mechanisms that can lead to excessive inflammation, immunosuppression, and potentially long-term immune disorders. Recent evidence highlights the importance of immunosuppression in sepsis. Immunosuppression is recognized as a predisposing factor for increased susceptibility to secondary infections and mortality in patients. Immunosuppression due to sepsis increases a patient's chance of re-infection and increases organ load. In addition, antibiotics, fluid resuscitation, and organ support therapy have limited impact on the prognosis of septic patients. Therapeutic approaches by suppressing excessive inflammation have not achieved the desired results in clinical trials. Research into immunosuppression has brought new hope for the treatment of sepsis, and a number of therapeutic approaches have demonstrated the potential of immunostimulatory therapies. In this article, we will focus on the mechanisms of immunosuppression and markers of immune monitoring in sepsis and describe various targets for immunostimulatory therapy in sepsis.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Objective: Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACIs) have been reported to improve survival in rats with hemorrhagic shock (HS). However, no consensus exists on the most effective HDACIs and their administration routes. We herein aimed to determine the optimal HDACIs and administration route in rats with HS. Methods: Survival analysis: In experiment I, male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to HS (mean arterial pressure [MAP] was maintained at 30-40 mm Hg for 20 min), and intravenously injected with the following agents (n = 8 per group): (1) no treatment, (2) vehicle (VEH), (3) entinostat (MS-275), (4) [ N -((6-(Hydroxyamino)-6-oxohexyl)oxy)-3,5-dimethylbenzamide] (LMK-235), (5) tubastatin A, (6) trichostatin A (TSA), and (7) sirtinol. In experiment II, rats were intraperitoneally injected with TSA. Mechanism research: In experiments I and II, rats were observed for 3 h, after which blood samples and liver, heart, and lung tissues were harvested. Results: In experiment I, 75% rats in the VEH group but only 25% rats in the LMK-235 and sirtinol groups died within ≤5 h of treatment, whereas the survival of rats in the MS-275, tubastatin A, and TSA groups was significantly prolonged. MS-275, LMK-235, tubastatin A, and TSA significantly reduced histopathological scores, apoptosis cell numbers, and inflammatory cytokine levels. In experiment II, the survival was longer after i.v. TSA treatment than after i.p. TSA treatment, and the IL-6 levels in the heart were significantly lower in rat who received i.p. TSA treatment than in those who received i.v. TSA treatment. Conclusions: The i.v. effect was superior to the i.p. effect, while nonselective and isoform-specific classes I and IIb HDACIs had similar effects.

Abstract
Sepsis is a life-threatening disorder disease defined as infection-induced dysregulated immune responses and multiple organ dysfunction. The imbalance between hyperinflammation and immunosuppression is a crucial feature of sepsis immunity. Epigenetic modifications, including histone modifications, DNA methylation, chromatin remodeling, and non-coding RNA, play essential roles in regulating sepsis immunity through epi-information independent of the DNA sequence. In recent years, the mechanisms of histone modification in sepsis have received increasing attention, with ongoing discoveries of novel types of histone modifications. Due to the capacity for prolonged effects on immune cells, histone modifications can induce immune cell reprogramming and participate in the long-term immunosuppressed state of sepsis. Herein, we systematically review current mechanisms of histone modifications involved in the regulation of sepsis, summarize their role in sepsis from an immune perspective and provide potential therapeutic opportunities targeting histone modifications in sepsis treatment.

Abstract
Objective Sepsis, a life-threatening clinical syndrome, is a leading cause of mortality after experiencing multiple traumas. Once diagnosed with sepsis, patients should be given an appropriate empiric antimicrobial treatment followed by the specific antibiotic therapy based on blood culture due to its rapid progression to tissue damage and organ failure. In this study, we aimed to analyze the risk factors and outcome of sepsis in traumatic patients and to investigate the performance of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) compared with standard microbiological diagnostics in post-traumatic sepsis. Methods The study included 528 patients with multiple traumas among which there were 142 cases with post-traumatic sepsis. Patients' demographic and clinical data were recorded. The outcome measures included mortality during the emergency intensive care unit (EICU), EICU length of stay (LOS), all-cause 28-day mortality, and total ventilator days in 28 days after admission. A total of 89 blood samples from 89 septic patients underwent standard microbiological blood cultures and 89 samples of peripheral blood (n = 21), wound secretion (n = 41), bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) (19), ascites (n = 5), and sputum (n = 3) underwent mNGS. Pathogen detection was compared between standard microbiological blood cultures and mNGS. Results The sepsis group and non-sepsis group exhibited significant differences regarding shock on admission, blood transfusion, mechanical ventilation, body temperature, heart rate, WBC count, neutrophil count, hematocrit, urea nitrogen, creatinine, CRP, D-D dimer, PCT, scores of APACHE II, sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA), and Injury Severity Score (ISS) on admission to the EICU, and Multiple Organ Dysfunction Syndromes (MODS) (P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that scores of APACHE II, SOFA, and ISS on admission, and MODS were independent risk factors for the occurrence of sepsis in patients with multiple traumas. The 28-day mortality was higher in the sepsis group than in the non-sepsis group (45.07% vs. 19.17%, P < 0.001). The mortality during the EICU was higher in the sepsis group than in the non-sepsis group (P=0.002). The LOS in the EICU in the sepsis group was increased compared with the non-sepsis group (P=0.004). The total ventilator days in 28 days after admission in the sepsis group was increased compared with the non-sepsis group (P < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that septic shock, APACHE II score on admission, SOFA score, and MODS were independent risk factors of death for patients with post-traumatic sepsis. The positive detection rate of mNGS was 91.01% (81/89), which was significantly higher than that of standard microbiological blood cultures (39.33% (35/89)). Standard microbiological blood cultures and mNGS methods demonstrated double positive results in 33 (37.08%) specimens and double-negative results in 8 (8.99%) specimens, while 46 (51.69%) samples and 2 (2.25%) samples had positive results only with mNGS or culture alone, respectively. Conclusion Our study identifies risk factors for the incidence and death of sepsis in traumatic patients and shows that mNGS may serve as a better diagnostic tool for the identification of pathogens in post-traumatic sepsis than standard microbiological blood cultures.

Abstract
Objective To date, there are no studies regarding the lactylation profile and its role in critically ill patients. Thus, we aimed to examine expression of histone H3 lysine 18 (H3K18) lactylation and its role in patients with septic shock. Methods Thirteen healthy volunteers and 35 critically ill patients from the Department of Surgical Intensive Care Medicine, Beijing Hospital were enrolled in our study. Baseline information and clinical outcomes were obtained prospectively. Lactylation levels of all proteins and H3K18 from peripheral blood mononuclear (PBMC) were determined by western blotting and serum levels of inflammatory cytokines by flow cytometry. Arginase-1 (Arg1) and Krüppel-like factor-4 (Klf4) mRNA expression was evaluated by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Results Lactylation was found to be an all-protein post-translational modification and was detected in PBMCs from both healthy volunteers and critically ill patients, with a significantly higher relative density in shock patients (t=2.172, P=0.045). H3K18la was expressed in all subjects, including healthy volunteers, with the highest level in septic shock patients (compared with non-septic shock patients, critically ill without shock patients and healthy volunteers P=0.033, 0.000 and 0.000, respectively). Furthermore, H3K18la protein expression correlated positively with APACHE II scores, SOFA scores on day 1, ICU stay, mechanical ventilation time and serum lactate (ρ=0.42, 0.63, 0.39, 0.51 and 0.48, respectively, ρ=0.012, 0.000, 0.019, 0.003 and 0.003, respectively). When we matched patients with septic shock and with non-septic shock according to severity, we found higher H3K18la levels in the former group (t=-2.208, P =0.040). Moreover, H3K18la exhibited a close correlation with procalcitonin levels (ρ=0.71, P=0.010). Patients with high H3K18la expression showed higher IL-2, IL-5, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-17, IFN-α levels (ρ=0.33, 0.37, 0.62, 0.55, 0.65, 0.49 and 0.374 respectively, P=0.024, 0.011, 0.000, 0.000, 0.000 and 0.000 respectively). H3K18la expression also displayed a positive correlation with the level of Arg1 mRNA (ρ=0.561, P=0.005). Conclusions Lactylation is an all-protein post-translational modification occurring in both healthy subjects and critically ill patients. H3K18la may reflect the severity of critical illness and the presence of infection. H3K18la might mediate inflammatory cytokine expression and Arg1 overexpression and stimulate the anti-inflammatory function of macrophages in sepsis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND No agents that are specifically neuroprotective are currently approved to emergently treat patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). The histone deacetylase inhibitor, high-dose valproic acid (VPA) has been shown to have cytoprotective potential in models of combined TBI and hemorrhagic shock, but it has not been tested in an isolated TBI model. We hypothesized that VPA, administered after isolated TBI, will penetrate the injured brain, attenuate the lesion size, and activate prosurvival pathways. METHODS Yorkshire swine were subjected to severe TBI by cortical impact. One hour later, animals were randomized to VPA treatment (150 mg/kg delivered intravenously for 1 hour; n = 4) or control (saline vehicle; n = 4) groups. Seven hours after injury, animals were sacrificed, and brain lesion size was measured. Mass spectrometry imaging was used to visualize and quantitate brain tissue distribution of VPA. Sequential serum samples were assayed for key biomarkers and subjected to proteomic and pathway analysis. RESULTS Brain lesion size was 50% smaller (p = 0.01) in the VPA-treated animals (3,837 ± 948 mm) compared with the controls (1,900 ± 614 mm). Endothelial regions had eightfold higher VPA concentrations than perivascular regions by mass spectrometry imaging, and it readily penetrated the injured brain tissues. Serum glial fibrillary acid protein was significantly lower in the VPA-treated compared with the control animals (p < 0.05). More than 500 proteins were differentially expressed in the brain, and pathway analysis revealed that VPA affected critical modulators of TBI response including calcium signaling pathways, mitochondria metabolism, and biosynthetic machinery. CONCLUSION Valproic acid penetrates injured brain tissues and exerts neuroprotective and prosurvival effects that resulted in a significant reduction in brain lesion size after isolated TBI. Levels of serum biomarkers reflect these changes, which could be useful for monitoring the response of TBI patients during clinical studies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a leading cause of trauma-related morbidity and mortality. Valproic acid (VPA) has been shown to attenuate brain lesion size and swelling within the first few hours following TBI. Because injured neurons are sensitive to metabolic changes, we hypothesized that VPA treatment would alter the metabolic profile in the perilesional brain tissues to create a neuroprotective environment. METHODS We subjected swine to combined TBI (12-mm cortical impact) and hemorrhagic shock (40% blood volume loss and 2 hours of hypotension) and randomized them to two groups (n = 5/group): (1) normal saline (NS; 3× hemorrhage volume) and (2) NS-VPA (NS, 3× hemorrhage volume; VPA, 150 mg/kg). After 6 hours, brains were harvested, and 100 mg of the perilesional tissue was used for metabolite extraction. Samples were analyzed using reversed-phase liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry in positive and negative ion modes, and data were analyzed using MetaboAnalyst software (McGill University, Quebec, Canada). RESULTS In untargeted reversed-phase liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis, we detected 3,750 and 1,955 metabolites in positive and negative ion modes, respectively. There were no significantly different metabolites in positive ion mode; however, 167 metabolite features were significantly different (p < 0.05) in the negative ion mode, which included VPA derivates. Pathway analysis showed that several pathways were affected in the treatment group, including the biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids (p = 0.001). Targeted amino acid analysis on glycolysis/tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle revealed that VPA treatment significantly decreased the levels of the excitotoxic amino acid serine (p = 0.001). CONCLUSION Valproic acid can be detected in perilesional tissues in its metabolized form. It also induces metabolic changes in the brains within the first few hours following TBI to create a neuroprotective environment.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION We previously showed that the addition of valproic acid (VPA), a histone deacetylase inhibitor, to fresh frozen plasma (FFP) resuscitation attenuates brain lesion size and swelling following traumatic brain injury (TBI) and hemorrhagic shock (HS). The goal of this study was to use computational biology tools to investigate the effects of FFP+VPA on the brain transcriptome following TBI+HS. METHODS Swine underwent TBI+HS, kept in shock for 2 h, and resuscitated with FFP or FFP + VPA (n = 5/group). After 6 h of observation, brain RNA was isolated and gene expression was analyzed using a microarray. iPathwayGuide, Gene Ontology (GO), Gene-Set Enrichment Analysis, and Enrichment Mapping were used to identify significantly impacted genes and transcriptomic networks. RESULTS Eight hundred differentially expressed (DE) genes were identified out of a total of 9,118 genes. Upregulated genes were involved in promotion of cell division, proliferation, and survival, while downregulated genes were involved in autophagy, cell motility, neurodegenerative diseases, tumor suppression, and cell cycle arrest. Seven hundred ninety-one GO terms were significantly enriched. A few major transcription factors, such as TP53, NFKB3, and NEUROD1, were responsible for modulating hundreds of other DE genes. Network analysis revealed attenuation of interconnected genes involved in inflammation and tumor suppression, and an upregulation of those involved in cell proliferation and differentiation. CONCLUSION Overall, these results suggest that VPA treatment creates an environment that favors production of new neurons, removal of damaged cells, and attenuation of inflammation, which could explain its previously observed neuroprotective effects.

Valproic acid decreases resuscitation requirements after hemorrhage in a prolonged damage-control resuscitation model. J Trauma Acute Care Surg 2020; 89:752-760.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemorrhage is the leading cause of preventable death in trauma. Future military conflicts are likely to be in austere environments, where prolonged damage-control resuscitation (p-DCR) may be required for 72 hours before evacuation. There is a need to demonstrate that p-DCR is feasible and to optimize its logistics. Dried plasma (DP) is a practical alternative to conventional blood products in austere settings, and valproic acid (VPA) improves survival in preclinical models of trauma and hemorrhage. We performed the current experiment to study the synergistic effects of VPA and DP and hypothesized that VPA treatment would decrease the fluid resuscitation requirements in p-DCR. METHODS Female swine were subjected to 50% hemorrhage (associated with 20% survival using non-plasma-based p-DCR) and left unresuscitated for 1 hour to simulate medic response time. They were then randomized to receive VPA (150 mg/kg + DP 250 mL; DP-VPA group; n = 5) or DP alone (DP group; n = 6). All animals were resuscitated to a systolic blood pressure of 80 mm Hg with lactated Ringer according to the Tactical Combat Casualty Care Guidelines for 72 hours, after which packed red blood cells were transfused to simulate evacuation to higher levels of care. RESULTS The DP-VPA group needed significantly (p = 0.002) less volume of lactated Ringer to reach and maintain the target systolic blood pressure. This would translate to a 4.3 L volume sparing effect for a 70-kg person. CONCLUSION Addition of a single dose of VPA significantly decreases the volume of resuscitation required in a p-DCR model.

Abstract
Sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) is associated with high mortality rates, but clinicians lack effective treatments except supportive care or renal replacement therapies. Recently, histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors have been recognized as potential treatments for acute kidney injury and sepsis in animal models; however, the adverse effect generated by the use of pan inhibitors of HDACs may limit their application in people. In the present study, we explored the possible renoprotective effect of a selective class IIa HDAC inhibitor, TMP195, in a murine model of SA-AKI induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Administration of TMP195 significantly reduced increased serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels and renal damage induced by LPS; this was coincident with reduced expression of HDAC4, a major isoform of class IIa HDACs, and elevated histone H3 acetylation. TMP195 treatment following LPS exposure also reduced renal tubular cell apoptosis and attenuated renal expression of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and kidney injury molecule-1, two biomarkers of tubular injury. Moreover, LPS exposure resulted in increased expression of BAX and cleaved caspase-3 and decreased expression of Bcl-2 and bone morphogenetic protein-7 in vivo and in vitro; TMP195 treatment reversed these responses. Finally, TMP195 inhibited LPS-induced upregulation of multiple proinflammatory cytokines/chemokines, including intercellular adhesion molecule-1, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, tumor necrosis factor-α, and interleukin-1β, and accumulation of inflammatory cells in the injured kidney. Collectively, these data indicate that TMP195 has a powerful renoprotective effect in SA-AKI by mitigating renal tubular cell apoptosis and inflammation and suggest that targeting class IIa HDACs might be a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of SA-AKI that avoids the unintended adverse effects of a pan-HDAC inhibitor.

Abstract
Ischemia/reperfusion injury is a complex molecular cascade that causes deleterious cellular damage and organ dysfunction. Stroke, sudden cardiac arrest, and acute myocardial infarction are the most common causes of ischemia/reperfusion injury without effective pharmacologic therapies. Existing preclinical evidence suggests that histone deacetylase inhibitors may be an efficacious, affordable, and clinically feasible therapy that can improve neurologic and cardiac outcomes following ischemia/reperfusion injury. In this review, we discuss the pathophysiology and epigenetic modulations of ischemia/reperfusion injury and focus on the neuroprotective and cardioprotective effects of histone deacetylase inhibitors. We also summarize the protective effects of histone deacetylase inhibitors for other vital organs and highlight the key research priorities for their successful translation to the bedside.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Isoform-specific histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACIs) MC1568 and ACY1083 are comparable to the non-selective HDACI valproic acid (VPA) in improving survival in rodents undergoing lethal hemorrhage. However, the organ-specific properties of isoform-specific HDACIs have not been fully evaluated. Also, whether they can act synergistically is not known. We hypothesized that isoform-specific HDACIs are superior to VPA in attenuating intestinal injury and act synergistically when coadministered. METHODS Sprague Dawley rats were hemorrhaged (40% of total blood volume) and randomized to receive (n=4 per group) (1) MC1568 (5 mg/kg), (2) ACY1083 (30 mg/kg), (3) MC1568+ACY1083 (combination: 5 mg/kg + 30 mg/kg, respectively), (4) VPA (250 mg/kg), or (5) normal saline (NS; vehicle; 250 μL). Animals were observed for 3 hours, after which blood samples were collected and samples of the ileum were harvested. Expression of interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), and cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant 1 (CINC-1) was assessed in the tissues using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Intestinal cleaved caspase 3 (c-caspase 3) levels were assessed as a marker of apoptosis, and histologic sections of the ileum were examined for signs of bowel injury. Levels of IL-1β and TNF-α were also measured in the serum as global markers of inflammation. RESULTS Treatments with MC1568, ACY1083, MC1568+ACY1083, and VPA were associated with decreased IL-1β levels in the intestine and serum compared with NS. IL-1β and TNF-α levels were significantly lower in the ACY1083 group compared with the VPA group. CINC-1 levels were significantly lower in the isoform-specific HDACI groups compared with the NS; however, no significant differences were seen with VPA. All treatment groups had a lower expression of intestinal c-caspase 3 compared with NS. Furthermore, MC1568 and ACY1083 groups had lower apoptosis compared with the VPA group. Bowel injury scores were significantly lower in the isoform-specific HDACI groups compared with the NS group; however, the attenuation in the VPA-treated animals did not reach statistical significance. DISCUSSION Isoform-specific HDACIs provide superior intestinal protection compared with VPA in a rodent model of hemorrhagic shock. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Preclinical study.
