Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the fundamental causes of ischemia reperfusion (I/R) damage. I/R refers to the paradoxical progression of cellular dysfunction and death that occurs when blood flow is restored to previously ischemic tissues. I/R causes a significant rise in mitochondrial permeability resulting in the opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pores (MPTP). The MPTP are broad, nonspecific channels present in the inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM), and are known to mediate the deadly permeability alterations that trigger mitochondrial driven cell death. Protection from reperfusion injury occurs when long-term ischemia is accompanied by short-term ischemic episodes or inhibition of MPTP from opening via mitochondrial ATP dependent potassium (mitoKATP) channels. These channels located in the IMM, play an essential role in ischemia preconditioning (PC) and protect against cell death by blocking MPTP opening. This review primarily focuses on the interaction between the MPTP and mitoKATP along with their role in the I/R injury. This article also describes the molecular composition of the MPTP and mitoKATP in order to promote future knowledge and treatment of diverse I/R injuries in various organs.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Sulfonylureas are frequently used as add-on to metformin in type 2 diabetes (T2D), and individual sulfonylurea agents carry different risks of cardiovascular disease. Sulfonylureas' different affinities to cardiac mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium (mitoKATP) channels have been speculated to account for the intraclass difference in cardiovascular risk from in vitro and ex vivo studies; however, this hypothesis has not been assessed in a general population with diabetes receiving sulfonylureas added to metformin. OBJECTIVE To compare the risk of myocardial infarction (MI), ischemic stroke, or cardiovascular death in patients with T2D treated with mitoKATP channel high-affinity sulfonylureas and low-affinity sulfonylureas as add-on to metformin. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This is a new-user, active-comparator, and propensity score-matched cohort study with analysis of the Taiwanese Diabetes Mellitus Health Database from 2006, to 2017. Data analysis was performed from August 2020 to July 2021. EXPOSURES Cardiac mitoKATP channel high-affinity (glyburide and glipizide) and low-affinity (gliclazide and glimepiride) sulfonylureas combined with metformin. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Primary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), a composite of cardiovascular death or hospitalization for either MI or ischemic stroke. Secondary outcomes included individual MACE components, heart failure, arrhythmia, all-cause mortality, and severe hypoglycemia. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs). RESULTS Each sulfonylurea group comprised 53 714 patients (mean [SD] age, 54.7 [12.1] years; 31 962 men [59.5%]). MitoKATP channel high-affinity sulfonylureas vs low-affinity sulfonylureas when combined with metformin were associated with an increased risk of MACE (aHR, 1.18; 95% CI, 1.03-1.34), MI (aHR, 1.34; 95% CI, 1.04-1.73), all-cause mortality (aHR, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.03-1.57), and severe hypoglycemia (aHR, 1.82; 95% CI, 1.58-2.10), but not with increased risks of ischemic stroke, cardiovascular death, arrhythmia, and heart failure. The duration analyses revealed the highest MACE risk during 1 to 90 days after initiation of mitoKATP channel high-affinity sulfonylureas (aHR, 6.06; 95% CI, 4.86-7.55). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Use of mitoKATP channel high-affinity sulfonylureas vs low-affinity sulfonylureas was associated with an increased MACE risk in patients with T2D concomitantly receiving metformin, suggesting that high-affinity blockage of the mitoKATP channels could account for sulfonylurea-associated MACEs.

Abstract
Age-associated diseases represent a growing burden for global health systems in our aging society. Consequently, we urgently need innovative strategies to counteract these pathological disturbances. Overwhelming generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is associated with age-related damage, leading to cellular dysfunction and, ultimately, diseases. However, low-dose ROS act as crucial signaling molecules and inducers of a vaccination-like response to boost antioxidant defense mechanisms, known as mitohormesis. Consequently, modulation of ROS homeostasis by nutrition, exercise, or pharmacological interventions is critical in aging. Numerous nutrients and approved drugs exhibit pleiotropic effects on ROS homeostasis. In the current review, we provide an overview of drugs affecting ROS generation and ROS detoxification and evaluate the potential of these effects to counteract the development and progression of age-related diseases. In case of inflammation-related dysfunctions, cardiovascular- and neurodegenerative diseases, it might be essential to strengthen antioxidant defense mechanisms in advance by low ROS level rises to boost the individual ROS defense mechanisms. In contrast, induction of overwhelming ROS production might be helpful to fight pathogens and kill cancer cells. While we outline the potential of ROS manipulation to counteract age-related dysfunction and diseases, we also raise the question about the proper intervention time and dosage.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Previous studies have revealed an intraclass difference in major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) among sulfonylureas. In vitro and ex vivo studies reported several sulfonylureas to exhibit high-affinity blockage of cardiac mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium (mitoKATP) channels and could interfere with ischemic preconditioning, the most important mechanism of self-cardiac protection. However, no studies have examined whether these varying binding affinities of sulfonylureas could account for their intraclass difference in MACE. We compared mitoKATP channel high-affinity versus low-affinity sulfonylureas regarding the MACE risk in real-world settings. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Using the Taiwan nationwide health care claims database, patients with type 2 diabetes initiating sulfonylurea monotherapy between 2007 and 2016 were included in the cohort study. A total of 33,727 new mitoKATP channel high-affinity (glyburide and glipizide) and low-affinity (gliclazide and glimepiride) sulfonylurea users, respectively, were identified after 1:1 propensity score matching. Cox proportional hazard models were used to estimate adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) and 95% CI. RESULTS MitoKATP channel high-affinity sulfonylureas were associated with a significantly increased risk of three-point MACE (aHR 1.21 [95% CI 1.03-1.44]), ischemic stroke (aHR 1.23 [95% CI 1.02-1.50]), and cardiovascular death (aHR 2.61 [95% CI 1.31-5.20]), but not with that of myocardial infarction (aHR 1.04 [95% CI 0.75-1.46]). The duration-response analyses revealed the highest MACE risk to be within 90 days of therapy (aHR 4.67 [95% CI 3.61-6.06]). CONCLUSIONS Cardiac mitoKATP channel high-affinity sulfonylureas were associated with an increased MACE risk compared with low-affinity sulfonylureas in a nationwide population with diabetes.

Abstract
Therapy for diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is undergoing a revolution with the realization that some glucose-lowering drugs have nephroprotective actions that may be intrinsic to the drugs and not dependent on the impact on diabetes control, as demonstrated with the sodium glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors. Mitochondria are a critical factor required for the maintenance of kidney function, given its high energy demanding profile, with extensive use of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Consequently, deficiency of the master regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1α predisposes to kidney disease. Perhaps as a result of key role of mitochondria in fundamental cellular functions, mitochondrial dysfunction may play a role in the pathogenesis of common conditions such as DKD. Finding pharmacological agents to influence this pathway could therefore lead to early implementation of therapy. Importantly, glucose-lowering drugs such as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor activators and SGLT2 inhibitors have kidney and/or cardioprotective actions in patients with diabetes. Accumulating evidence from preclinical studies has suggested a protective effect of these drugs that is in part mediated by normalizing mitochondrial function. We now critically review this evidence and discuss studies needed to confirm mitochondrial protective benefits across a range of clinical studies.

Abstract
AbstractThe prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is increasing rapidly with its associated morbidity and mortality. Many pathophysiological pathways such as oxidative stress, inflammatory responses, adipokines, obesity‐induced insulin resistance, improper insulin signaling, and beta cell apoptosis are associated with the development of T2DM. There is increasing evidence of the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in the onset of T2DM, particularly in relation to the development of diabetic complications. Here, the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in T2DM is reviewed together with its modulation by antidiabetic therapeutic agents, an effect that may be independent of their hypoglycemic effect.

Abstract
Gasotransmitters represent a subfamily of the endogenous gaseous signaling molecules that include nitric oxide (NO), carbon monoxide (CO), and hydrogen sulphide (H(2)S). These particular gases share many common features in their production and function, but they fulfill their physiological tasks in unique ways that differ from those of classical signaling molecules found in tissues and organs. These gasotransmitters may antagonize or potentiate each other's cellular effects at the level of their production, their downstream molecular targets and their direct interactions. All three gasotransmitters induce vasodilatation, inhibit apoptosis directly or by increasing the expression of anti-apoptotic genes, and activate antioxidants while inhibiting inflammatory actions. NO and CO may concomitantly participate in vasorelaxation, anti-inflammation and angiogenesis. NO and H(2)S collaborate in the regulation of vascular tone. Finally, H(2)S may upregulate the heme oxygenase/carbon monoxide (HO/CO) pathway during hypoxic conditions. All three gasotransmitters are produced by specific enzymes in different cell types that include cardiomyocytes, endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells. As translational research on gasotransmitters has exploded over the past years, drugs that alter the production/levels of the gasotransmitters themselves or modulate their signaling pathways are now being developed. This review is focused on the cardiovascular effects of NO, CO, and H(2)S. Moreover, their donors as drug targeting the cardiovascular system are briefly described.

Abstract
Ischaemic heart disease is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The development of cardioprotective therapeutic agents remains a partly unmet need and a challenge for both medicine and industry, with significant financial and social implications. Protection of the myocardium can be achieved by mechanical vascular occlusions such as preconditioning (PC), when brief episodes of ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) are experienced prior to ischaemia; postconditioning (PostC), when the brief episodes are experienced at the immediate onset of reperfusion; and remote conditioning (RC), when the brief episodes are experienced in another vascular territory. The elucidation of the signalling pathways, which underlie the protective effects of PC, PostC and RC, would be expected to reveal novel molecular targets for cardioprotection that could be modulated by pharmacological agents to prevent reperfusion injury. Gasotransmitters including NO, hydrogen sulphide (H2S) and carbon monoxide (CO) are a growing family of regulatory molecules that affect physiological and pathological functions. NO, H2S and CO share several common properties; they are beneficial at low concentrations but hazardous in higher amounts; they relax smooth muscle cells, inhibit apoptosis and exert anti-inflammatory effects. In the cardiovascular system, NO, H2S and CO induce vasorelaxation and promote cardioprotection. In this review article, we summarize current knowledge on the role of the gasotransmitters NO, H2S and CO in myocardial I/R injury and cardioprotection provided by conditioning strategies and highlight future perspectives in cardioprotection by NO, H2S, CO, as well as their donor molecules.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To study the protective mechanism of nicorandil on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. METHODS Fifty rats were randomly divided into five groups, four of which were operated on to produce myocardial ischemia-reperfusion. Nicorandil (5 mg/kg) was administrated by intravenous injection to three of the groups. The myocardial ultrastructure was observed by electron microscope. The expression levels of the antiapoptotic protein Bcl-2 and the pro-apoptotic protein Bax were detected by immunohistochemical staining with rhodamine 123. The mitochondrial membrane potential was detected by spectrophotometry. RESULTS The activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) content was decreased and the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) was increased in the three nicorandil groups, compared with those in the group without nicorandil (P < 0.01, P < 0.05). The positive staining level of the expressed Bcl-2 was increased and the expressed Bax was decreased (P < 0.01) in the three nicorandil groups, compared with those in the group without nicorandil. The mitochondrial inner membrane potential was increased in the three nicorandil groups compared with that in the group without nicorandil (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION A suitable level of nicorandil has a protective effect on rats' myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, and is mainly based on the opening of the mitochondrial KATP channel and the lowing of Ca overload.

Abstract
AIMS Intermittent early reperfusion (ischaemic postconditioning; PostC) reduces ischaemia-reperfusion (IR) injury. Using an in vivo model of endothelial IR injury in humans, we sought to determine the role of K(ATP) channels in PostC and whether inhibition of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) at the onset of reperfusion protected against endothelial IR injury. METHODS AND RESULTS Endothelial function (EF) in healthy volunteers was assessed using vascular ultrasound to measure the percentage increase in the diameter of the brachial artery in response to reactive hyperaemia [flow-mediated dilatation (FMD)]. In resistance vessels, venous occlusion plethysmography was used to measure the dilator response to acetylcholine (ACh) [area under ACh dose-response curve (ACh AUC)]. Measurements were made before and after IR injury. Ischaemic postconditioning consisted of three 10 s cycles of alternating ischaemia and reperfusion in the first minute of reperfusion. Oral glibenclamide and glimepiride were used to determine the role of K(ATP) channel subtypes in PostC. Intra-arterial cyclosporine was used to determine the role of mPTP in endothelial IR injury. Ischaemia-reperfusion reduced EF in the brachial artery (FMD 7.1 ± 0.9% pre-IR, 2.8 ± 0.4% post-IR; P < 0.001) and resistance vessels [ACh AUC (×10(4)) 2.1 ± 0.4 pre-IR, 1.5 ± 0.2 post-IR; P < 0.05]. Ischaemic postconditioning preserved EF in the brachial artery [FMD 6.8 ± 0.9% (P < 0.001 vs. post-IR)] and resistance vessels [ACh AUC (×10(4)) 1.9 ± 0.2 (P < 0.001 vs. post-IR)]. Protection by PostC was abolished by glibenclamide in the brachial artery [FMD 3.3 ± 0.2% (P < 0.001 vs. post-IR + PostC)] and in resistance vessels [ACh AUC (×10(4)) 1.1 ± 0.2 (P < 0.001 vs. post-IR + PostC)], whereas glimepiride had no effect. Cyclosporine preserved EF after IR injury in the resistance vessels [ACh AUC (×10(4)) 1.4 ± 0.2 post-IR vs. 2.2 ± 0.3 post-IR + cyclosporine; P < 0.05]. CONCLUSION Protection by PostC against endothelial IR injury in humans depends on K(ATP) channel activation and is mimicked by inhibition of the mPTP at reperfusion.

Abstract
Infarct size is determined not only by the severity of ischemia but also by pathological processes initiated at reperfusion. Accumulating experimental evidence indicates that lethal reperfusion injury might account for up to half of the final size of the myocardial infarct. Ischemic postconditioning (brief repeated periods of ischemia-reperfusion applied at the onset of coronary reflow) has been recently described as a powerful cardioprotection mechanism that prevents lethal reperfusion injury. This is the first method proven to reduce the final infarct size by about 50% in several in vivo models and to be confirmed in recent preliminary human studies. The molecular pathways are incompletely mapped but they probably converge to a mitochondrial key target: the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (PTP) which opening during early reperfusion is an event that promotes myocardial cell death. In different animal models and experimental settings, pharmacological PTP inhibition at the onset of reperfusion reproduces all the cardioprotective effects of ischemic postconditioning. In a recent proof-of-concept trial, the administration (just before percutaneous coronary intervention) of cyclosporine A, a potent PTP inhibitor, was associated with smaller infarct size. This review will focus on the physiological preclinical data on both ischemic and pharmacological postconditioning that are relevant to their translation to clinical therapeutics.

Abstract
RATIONALE During reperfusion of ischemic myocardium, a burst of hydroxyl radicals (OH) induces contractile dysfunction ("myocardial stunning"), and OH in the plasma of patients after myocardial infarction predict the development of heart failure. The effects of OH on myocardial function in patients with heart failure; however, have never been assessed. Furthermore, although ATP-dependent K+ channels (K(ATP) channels) are implicated in myocardial protection during ischemia/reperfusion ("ischemic preconditioning"), their role in heart failure has hardly been elucidated. OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of OH on cardiac contractile function in human failing myocardium, and to clarify the role of K(ATP) channels during this response. METHODS AND RESULTS In isolated left ventricular trabeculae of nonfailing hearts, OH (produced by Fe3+-nitrilotriacetic acid and H2O2) induced substantial systolic and diastolic dysfunction, whereas in failing myocardium, stunning was virtually absent. Although in failing myocardium, protein expression of sarcolemmal K(ATP) channels (Kir6.2/SUR2) was approximately 2-fold upregulated, their blockade with HMR-1098 did not impair contractile function in the presence of OH. In contrast, when blocking mitochondrial K(ATP) channels during OH exposure (with 5-HD), failing myocardium developed contractile dysfunction to a degree that was comparable to H-induced stunning in nonfailing myocardium without K(ATP) channel blockade. CONCLUSIONS Human failing left ventricular myocardium is resistant to OH-induced stunning, and this resistance is related to endogenous activation of putative mitochondrial K(ATP) channels. Given that certain sulfonylurea drugs that also block mitochondrial K(ATP) channels (eg, glibenclamide) are frequently used for the treatment of diabetes, our results imply that in patients with heart failure and diabetes, these drugs may impair left ventricular function during ischemia/reperfusion.
