Abstract
INTRODUCTION The current study was designed to systemically investigate the impact of remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) on intra- and postoperative bleeding and transfusion in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION We included all randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing RIC with control on intra- and postoperative blood loss and blood transfusion. The inclusion criteria were as follows: 1) adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery; 2) RCT; 3) perioperative administration of RIC compared to control; 4) outcomes of interest reported. Exclusion criteria included: 1) case reports, reviews, or abstracts; 2) animal or cell studies; 3) duplicate publications; 4) studies lacking information about outcomes of interest. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS Databases search yielded 24 RCTs including 3530 patients, 1765 patients were allocated into RIC group and 1765 into control group. The current study suggested that RIC administration was associated with reduced postoperative blood loss (WMD=-57.89; 95% CI: -89.89 to -25.89; P=0.0004). RIC did not affect the volume of intraoperative blood loss (WMD=-4.02; 95% CI: -14.09 to 6.05; P=0.43), the volume of intra- and postoperative transfusion of red blood cell (RBC) (WMD=-15.66; 95% CI: -39.35 to 8.03; P=0.20), the re-exploration for bleeding (WMD=-0.01; 95% CI: -0.03 to 0.01; P=0.21). CONCLUSIONS The current study demonstrated that, RIC reduced post-operative blood loss in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgeries. It also indicated that, RIC reduced intra-operative RBC transfusion in adult patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting. However, RIC did not influence intra-operative bleeding, post-operative blood transfusion.

Abstract
Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI), the joint result of ischemic injury and reperfusion injury, is associated with poor outcomes in patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Accumulating evidence demonstrates that activated platelets directly contribute to the pathogenesis of MIRI through participating in the formation of microthrombi, interaction with leukocytes, secretion of active substances, constriction of microvasculature, and activation of spinal afferent nerves. The molecular mechanisms underlying the above detrimental effects of activated platelets include the homotypic and heterotypic interactions through surface receptors, transduction of intracellular signals, and secretion of active substances. Revealing the roles of platelet activation in MIRI and the associated mechanisms would provide potential targets/strategies for the clinical evaluation and treatment of MIRI. Further studies are needed to characterize the temporal (ischemia phase vs. reperfusion phase) and spatial (systemic vs. local) distributions of platelet activation in MIRI by multi-omics strategies. To improve the likelihood of translating novel cardioprotective interventions into clinical practice, basic researches maximally replicating the complexity of clinical scenarios would be necessary.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Platelets are major players of thrombosis and inflammation after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The impact of thrombocytopenia on platelet-induced cellular processes post AMI is not well defined. METHODS The left anterior descending artery was ligated in C57/Bl6 mice and in two thrombocytopenic mouse models to induce AMI. RESULTS Platelets from STEMI patients and from C57/Bl6 mice displayed enhanced platelet activation after AMI. This allows platelets to migrate into the infarct but not into the remote zone of the left ventricle. Acute thrombocytopenia by antibody-induced platelet depletion resulted in reduced infarct size and improved cardiac function 24 h and 21 days post AMI. This was due to reduced platelet-mediated inflammation after 24 h and reduced scar formation after 21 days post AMI. The collagen composition and interstitial collagen content in the left ventricle were altered due to platelet interaction with cardiac fibroblasts. Acute inflammation was also significantly reduced in Mpl-/- mice with chronic thrombocytopenia, but cardiac remodeling was unaltered. Consequently, left ventricular function, infarct size and scar formation in Mpl-/- mice were comparable to controls. CONCLUSION This study discovers a novel role for platelets in cardiac remodeling and reveals that acute but not chronic thrombocytopenia protects left ventricular function post AMI.

Abstract
High mortality among people with acute myocardial infarction is one of the most urgent problems of modern cardiology. And in recent years, much attention has been paid to the search for pharmacological approaches to prevent heart damage. In this review, we tried to analyze data on the effect of P2Y12 receptor antagonists on the ischemia/reperfusion tolerance of the heart. Ischemic and reperfusion injuries of the heart underlie the pathogenesis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and sudden cardiac death. The mortality rate is still high and is 5–7% in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. The review is devoted to pharmacological approaches to limitation of ischemic and reperfusion injuries of the heart. The article analyzes experimental evidence and the clinical data on the effects of P2Y12 receptor antagonists on the heart’s tolerance to ischemia/reperfusion in animals with coronary artery occlusion and reperfusion and also in patients with AMI. Chronic administration of ticagrelor prevented adverse remodeling of the heart. There is evidence that sphingosine-1-phosphate is the molecule that mediates the infarct-reducing effect of P2Y12 receptor antagonists. It was discussed a role of adenosine in the cardioprotective effect of ticagrelor.

Abstract
It has been documented that Ca2+ overload and increased production of reactive oxygen species play a significant role in reperfusion injury (RI) of cardiomyocytes. Ischemia/reperfusion induces cell death as a result of necrosis, necroptosis, apoptosis, and possibly autophagy, pyroptosis and ferroptosis. It has also been demonstrated that the NLRP3 inflammasome is involved in RI of the heart. An increase in adrenergic system activity during the restoration of coronary perfusion negatively affected cardiac resistance to RI. Toll-like receptors are involved in RI of the heart. Angiotensin II and endothelin-1 aggravated ischemic/reperfusion injury of the heart. Activation of neutrophils, monocytes, CD4+ T-cells and platelets contributes to cardiac ischemia/reperfusion injury. Our review outlines the role of these factors in reperfusion cardiac injury.

Protective Role of Platelets in Myocardial Infarction and Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury. Cardiol Res Pract 2021; 2021:5545416.

Abstract
Thrombotic occlusion of the coronary artery is a key component in the pathogenesis of myocardial ischemia and myocardial infarction (MI). The standard therapy for ischemia is revascularization and restoration of blood flow to previously ischemic myocardium. Paradoxically, reperfusion may result in further tissue damage called ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI). Platelets play a major role in the pathogenesis of MI and IRI, since they contribute to the thrombus and microthrombi formation, inflammation, release of immunomodulatory mediators, and vasoconstrictive molecules. Antiplatelet therapies have proven efficacy in the prevention of thrombosis and play a protective role in cardiac IRI. Beyond the deterioration effect of platelets in MI and IRI, in the 90s the first reports on a protective effect of molecules released from platelets during MI appeared. However, the role of platelets in cardioprotection is still poorly understood. This review describes the involvement of platelets in MI, IRI, and inflammation. It mainly focuses on the protective role of platelets in MI and IRI. Platelets are involved in cardioprotection based on platelet-releasing molecules and antiplatelet therapy, apart from antiaggregatory effects. Additionally, the use of platelet-derived microparticles as possible markers of MI, with and without comorbidities, and their role in cardioprotection are discussed. This review is aimed at illustrating the present knowledge on the role of platelets in MI and IRI, especially in a context of cardioprotection.

Abstract
During cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), platelet activation and dysfunction are associated with adverse outcomes. Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) has been shown to attenuate platelet activation. We evaluated the effects of RIPC on platelet activation during CPB in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Among 58 randomized patients, 26 in the RIPC group and 28 in the sham-RIPC group were analyzed. RIPC consisted of 4 cycles of 5-min ischemia induced by inflation of pneumatic cuff pressure to 200 mmHg, followed by 5-min reperfusion comprising deflation of the cuff on the upper arm. Platelet activation was assessed using flow cytometry analysis of platelet activation markers. The primary endpoint was the AUC of CD62P expression during the first 3 h after initiation of CPB. Secondary outcomes were the AUC of PAC-1 expression and monocyte-platelet aggregates (MPA) during 3 h of CPB. The AUCs of CD62P expression during 3 h after initiation of CPB were 219.4 ± 43.9 and 211.0 ± 41.2 MFI in the RIPC and sham-RIPC groups, respectively (mean difference, 8.42; 95% CI, -14.8 and 31.7 MFI; p =.471). The AUCs of PAC-1 expression and MPA did not differ between groups. RIPC did not alter platelet activation and reactivity during CPB in patients undergoing cardiac surgery.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Achieving reperfusion immediately after acute myocardial infarction improves outcomes; despite this, patients remain at a high risk for mortality and morbidity at least for the first year after the event. Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) has a complex pathophysiology and plays an important role in myocardial tissue injury, repair, and remodeling. AREAS COVERED In this review, the authors discuss the various mechanisms and their pharmacological agents currently available for reducing myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). They review important original investigations and trials in various clinical databases for treatments targeting IRI. EXPERT OPINION Encouraging results observed in many preclinical studies failed to show similar success in attenuating myocardial IRI in large-scale clinical trials. Identification of critical risk factors for IRI and targeting them individually rather than one size fits all approach should be the major focus of future research. Various newer therapies like tocilizumab, anakinra, colchicine, revacept, and therapies targeting the reperfusion injury salvage kinase pathway, survivor activating factor enhancement, mitochondrial pathways, and angiopoietin-like peptide 4 hold promise for the future.

Abstract
AIMS Remote ischaemic conditioning (RIC) has been shown to reduce myocardial infarct size in animal models of myocardial infarction. Platelet thrombus formation is a critical determinant of outcome in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Whether the beneficial effects of RIC are related to thrombotic parameters is unclear. METHODS AND RESULTS In a substudy of the Effect of Remote Ischaemic Conditioning on clinical outcomes in STEMI patients undergoing Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (ERIC-PPCI) trial, we assessed the effect of RIC on thrombotic status. Patients presenting with STEMI were randomized to immediate RIC consisting of an automated autoRIC™ cuff on the upper arm inflated to 200 mmHg for 5 min and deflated for 5 min for four cycles (n = 53) or sham (n = 47). Venous blood was tested at presentation, discharge (48 h) and 6-8 weeks, to assess platelet reactivity, coagulation, and endogenous fibrinolysis using the Global Thrombosis Test and thromboelastography. Baseline thrombotic status was similar in the two groups. At discharge, there was some evidence that the time to in vitro thrombotic occlusion under high shear stress was longer with RIC compared to sham (454 ± 105 s vs. 403 ± 105 s; mean difference 50.1 s; 95% confidence interval 93.7-6.4, P = 0.025), but this was no longer apparent at 6-8 weeks. There was no difference in clot formation or endogenous fibrinolysis between the study arms at any time point. CONCLUSION RIC may reduce platelet reactivity in the first 48 h post-STEMI. Further research is needed to delineate mechanisms through which RIC may reduce platelet reactivity, and whether it may improve outcomes in patients with persistent high on-treatment platelet reactivity.

Abstract
Stem cell therapy is a promising strategy for cardiac repair. However, clinical efficacy is hampered by poor cell engraftment and the elusive repair mechanisms of the transplanted stem cells. The lung is a reservoir of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and a major biogenesis site for platelets. A strategy is sought to redirect lung resident stem cells to the injured heart for therapeutic repair after myocardial infarction (MI). To achieve this goal, CD34-CD42b platelet-targeting bispecific antibodies (PT-BsAbs) are designed to simultaneously recognize HSCs (via CD34) and platelets (via CD42b). After inhalation delivery, PT-BsAbs reach the lungs and conjoined HSCs and platelets. Due to the innate injury-finding ability of platelets, PT-BsAbs guide lung HSCs to the injured heart after MI. The redirected HSCs promote endogenous repair, leading to increased cardiac function. The repair mechanism involves angiomyogenesis and inflammation modulation. In addition, the inhalation route is superior to the intravenous route to deliver PT-BsAbs in terms of the HSCs' homing ability and therapeutic benefits. This work demonstrates that this novel inhalable antibody therapy, which harnesses platelets derived from the lungs, contributes to potent stem cell redirection and heart repair. This strategy is safe and effective in a mouse model of MI.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Myocardial infarction is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Cellular interactions of red blood cells (RBCs) and platelets with endothelial cells and cardiomyocytes play a crucial role in cardiac ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. However, addressing the specific impact of such cell-to-cell interactions in commonly employed in vivo models of cardiac I/R injury is challenging due to overlap of neuronal, hormonal, and immunological pathways. This study aimed to refine a Langendorff-based ex vivo transfer model to evaluate the impact of specific blood components on cardiac I/R injury. MATERIAL AND METHODS Murine whole blood, defined murine blood components (RBCs, platelet-rich plasma [PRP], and platelet-poor plasma [PPP], respectively) as well as human RBCs were loaded to the coronary system of isolated murine hearts in a Langendorff system before initiating global ischemia for 40 minutes. Following 60 minutes of reperfusion with Krebs Henseleit Buffer, left ventricular function and coronary flow were assessed. Infarct size was determined by specific histological staining following 120 minutes of reperfusion. RESULTS Loading of murine whole blood to the coronary system of isolated murine hearts at the beginning of 40 minutes of global ischemia improved left ventricular function after 60 minutes of reperfusion and reduced the infarct size in comparison to buffer-treated controls. Similarly, isolated murine RBCs, PRP, and PPP mediated a protective effect in the cardiac I/R model. Furthermore, human RBCs showed a comparable protective capacity as murine RBCs. CONCLUSION This Langendorff-based transfer model of cardiac I/R injury is a feasible, time-, and cost-effective model to evaluate the impact of blood components on myocardial infarction. The presented method facilitates loading of blood components of genetically modified mice to murine hearts of a different mouse strain, thus complementing time- and cost-intensive chimeric models and contributing to the development of novel targeted therapies.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction, commonly known as heart attack, evolves from the rupture of unstable atherosclerotic plaques to coronary thrombosis and myocardial ischemia–reperfusion injury. A body of evidence supports a close relationship between the alterations following an ischemia–reperfusion injury-induced oxidative stress and platelet activity. Through their critical role in thrombogenesis and inflammatory responses, platelets are fully (totally) implicated from atherothrombotic plaque formation to myocardial infarction onset and expansion. However, mere platelet aggregation prevention does not offer full protection, suggesting that other antiplatelet therapy mechanisms may also be involved. Thus, the present review discusses the integrative role of platelets, oxidative stress, and antiplatelet therapy in triggering myocardial infarction pathophysiology.

Abstract
Obstruction of a coronary artery causes ischemia of heart tissue leading to myocardial infarction. Prolonged oxygen deficiency provokes tissue necrosis, which can result in heart failure and death of the patient. Therefore, restoration of coronary blood flow (reperfusion of the ischemic area) by re-canalizing the affected vessel is essential for a better patient outcome. Paradoxically, sudden reperfusion also causes tissue injury, thereby increasing the initial ischemic damage despite restoration of blood flow (=ischemia/reperfusion injury, IRI). Myocardial IRI is a complex event that involves various harmful mechanisms (e.g., production of reactive oxygen species and local increase in calcium ions) as well as inflammatory cells and signals like chemokines and cytokines. An involvement of platelets in the inflammatory reaction associated with IRI was discovered several years ago, but the underlying mechanisms are not yet fully understood. This mini review focusses on platelet contributions to the intricate picture of myocardial IRI. We summarize how upregulation of platelet surface receptors and release of immunomodulatory mediators lead to aggravation of myocardial IRI and subsequent cardiac damage by different mechanisms such as recruitment and activation of immune cells or modification of the cardiac vascular endothelium. In addition, evidence for cardioprotective roles of distinct platelet factors during IRI will be discussed.

Abstract
The coronary circulation is both culprit and victim of acute myocardial infarction. The rupture of an epicardial atherosclerotic plaque with superimposed thrombosis causes coronary occlusion, and this occlusion must be removed to induce reperfusion. However, ischaemia and reperfusion cause damage not only in cardiomyocytes but also in the coronary circulation, including microembolization of debris and release of soluble factors from the culprit lesion, impairment of endothelial integrity with subsequently increased permeability and oedema formation, platelet activation and leucocyte adherence, erythrocyte stasis, a shift from vasodilation to vasoconstriction, and ultimately structural damage to the capillaries with eventual no-reflow, microvascular obstruction (MVO), and intramyocardial haemorrhage (IMH). Therefore, the coronary circulation is a valid target for cardioprotection, beyond protection of the cardiomyocyte. Virtually all of the above deleterious endpoints have been demonstrated to be favourably influenced by one or the other mechanical or pharmacological cardioprotective intervention. However, no-reflow is still a serious complication of reperfused myocardial infarction and carries, independently from infarct size, an unfavourable prognosis. MVO and IMH can be diagnosed by modern imaging technologies, but still await an effective therapy. The current review provides an overview of strategies to protect the coronary circulation from acute myocardial ischaemia/reperfusion injury. This article is part of a Cardiovascular Research Spotlight Issue entitled 'Cardioprotection Beyond the Cardiomyocyte', and emerged as part of the discussions of the European Union (EU)-CARDIOPROTECTION Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) Action, CA16225.

Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the single leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. A key component of AMI therapy is the timely reopening of occluded vessels to prevent further ischaemic damage to the myocardium. However, reperfusion of the ischaemic myocardium can itself trigger reperfusion injury causing up to 50% of the overall infarct size. In recent years, considerable research has been devoted to understanding the pathogenesis of ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and platelets have emerged as a major contributing factor. This review summarizes the role of platelets in the pathogenesis of I/R injury and highlights the potential of platelet-directed therapeutics to minimize cardiac I/R injury. Activated platelets infiltrate specifically into the ischaemic/reperfused myocardium and contribute to I/R injury by the formation of microthrombi, enhanced platelet-leucocyte aggregation, and the release of potent vasoconstrictor and pro-inflammatory molecules. This review demonstrates the benefits of platelet inhibition beyond their well-described anti-thrombotic effect and highlights the direct cardioprotective role of anti-platelet drugs. In particular, the inhibition of COX, the P2Y12 receptor and the GPIIb/IIIa receptor has demonstrated the potential to attenuate I/R injury. Moreover, targeting of drug candidates or regenerative cells to the activated platelets accumulated within the ischaemic/reperfused myocardium shows remarkable potential to protect the myocardium from I/R injury. Overall, activated platelets play a key role in the pathogenesis of I/R injury. Their direct inhibition as well as their use as epitopes for site-directed therapy is a unique and promising therapeutic approach for the prevention of I/R injury and ultimately the preservation of cardiac function.

Abstract
Platelet activation and aggregation during ischemia influence reperfusion-related myocyte necrosis, myocardial perfusion at the microvascular level, and thereby eventual recovery of cardiac performance. Inhibition of platelet activity therefore represents a worthwhile target to reduce cellular injury. The current study examined the effects of MK383 (tirofiban), a potent inhibitor of platelet aggregation, on infarct size and myocardial perfusion in canine subjects to either reocclusion (ie, 120-minute + 60-minute ischemia with intervening reperfusion) or prolonged occlusion (ie, 3 hours) followed by reperfusion (180 minutes). Platelet aggregation, infarct size (tetrazolium staining), coronary blood flow (flow probe), coronary vascular reserve, and myocardial perfusion (microspheres) were evaluated. MK383, administered at the time of reperfusion, produced a modest reduction of tissue necrosis (compared to saline-treated controls) in the reocclusion and prolonged occlusion studies. Blood flow in the infarct-related artery after coronary occlusion was comparable between treatment groups, as was myocardial perfusion in the deeper layers of the ischemic region; coronary vascular reserve decreased progressively during reperfusion. Of note, compensatory changes in blood flow within the adjacent nonischemic myocardium were not observed. In conclusion, we report that that limiting platelet aggregation during reperfusion impacted infarct development. Continued investigation into the mechanisms by which inhibition of platelet activity protects myocardium against ischemia-reperfusion injury and improves clinical outcomes is necessary.

Abstract
Platelets affect myocardial damage from ischemia/reperfusion. Redox-dependent sphingosine-1-phosphate production and release are altered in diabetic platelets. Sphingosine-1-phosphate is a double-edged sword for ischemia/reperfusion injury. Therefore, we aimed to verify whether: (1) human healthy- or diabetic-platelets are cardioprotective, (2) sphingosine-1-phosphate receptors and downstream kinases play a role in platelet-induced cardioprotection, and (3) a correlation between platelet redox status and myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury exists. Isolated rat hearts were subjected to 30-min ischemia and 1-h reperfusion. Infarct size was studied in hearts pretreated with healthy- or diabetic-platelets. Healthy-platelets were co-infused with sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor blocker, ERK-1/2 inhibitor, PI3K antagonist or PKC inhibitor to ascertain the cardioprotective mechanisms. In platelets we assessed (i) aggregation response to ADP, collagen, and arachidonic-acid, (ii) cyclooxygenase-1 levels, and (iii) AKT and ERK-phosphorylation. Platelet sphingosine-1-phosphate production and platelet levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) were quantified and correlated to infarct size. Infarct size was reduced by about 22% in healthy-platelets pretreated hearts only. This cardioprotective effect was abrogated by either sphingosine-1-phosphate receptors or ERK/PI3K/PKC pathway blockade. Cyclooxygenase-1 levels and aggregation indices were higher in diabetic-platelets than healthy-platelets. Diabetic-platelets released less sphingosine-1-phosphate than healthy-platelets when mechanical or chemically stimulated in vitro. Yet, ROS levels were higher in diabetic-platelets and correlated with infarct size. Cardioprotective effects of healthy-platelet depend on the platelet’s capacity to activate cardiac sphingosine-1-phosphate receptors and ERK/PI3K/PKC pathways. However, diabetic-platelets release less S1P and lose cardioprotective effects. Platelet ROS levels correlate with infarct size. Whether these redox alterations are responsible for sphingosine-1-phosphate dysfunction in diabetic-platelets remains to be ascertained.

Abstract
Reperfusion in the setting of acute ischemia is essential in limiting tissue necrosis. However, reperfusion itself is associated with significant adverse effects. There is animal evidence that platelets play a role in the adverse effects of ischemia and reperfusion (IR) injury. We examined whether clopidogrel would have favorable effects on endothelial dysfunction induced by an episode of IR. Using a parallel design, we administered clopidogrel 600 mg or matching placebo to normal volunteers (n = 20) 24 hours before an episode of IR. Flow-mediated dilatation (FMD, radial artery) was assessed before and after 20 minutes of upper arm ischemia. Following IR, there was a highly significant decrease in FMD in the placebo group (7.6% ± 1.3% vs 3.4% ± 0.1%; P < .001). In the clopidogrel group, there was no change in FMD post-IR (8.3% ± 0.8% vs 7.1% ± 1.2%; P = not significant). Following IR, FMD in the placebo group was significantly smaller than that observed in the clopidogrel group ( P < .01). Ischemia and reperfusion caused no change in plasma levels of biomarkers of inflammation (intercellular adhesion molecule 1, chemokine ligand 5, and interleukin 6) in either group. Therefore, a single dose of clopidogrel given 24 hours prior to an episode of IR had protective effects, limiting the adverse effects of ischemia on endothelial function.

Abstract
Ischaemic pre- and postconditioning are potent cardioprotective interventions that spare ischaemic myocardium and decrease infarct size after periods of myocardial ischaemia/reperfusion. They are dependent on complex signalling pathways involving ligands released from ischaemic myocardium, G-protein-linked receptors, membrane growth factor receptors, phospholipids, signalling kinases, NO, PKC and PKG, mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channels, reactive oxygen species, TNF-α and sphingosine-1-phosphate. The final effector is probably the mitochondrial permeability transition pore and the signalling produces protection by preventing pore formation. Many investigators have worked to produce a roadmap of this signalling with the hope that it would reveal where one could intervene to therapeutically protect patients with acute myocardial infarction whose hearts are being reperfused. However, attempts to date to show efficacy of such an intervention in large clinical trials have been unsuccessful. Reasons for this inability to translate successes in the experimental laboratory to the clinical arena are evaluated in this review. It is suggested that all patients with acute coronary syndromes currently presenting to the hospital and being treated with platelet P2Y12 receptor antagonists, the current standard of care, are indeed already benefiting from protection from the conditioning pathways outlined earlier. If that proves to be the case, then future attempts to further decrease infarction will have to rely on interventions which protect by a different mechanism.

Abstract
Background The current study was designed to test our hypothesis that atorvastatin could reduce infarct size in intact mice by activating eNOS, specifically the eNOS in bone marrow-derived cells. C57BL/6J mice (B6) and congenic eNOS knockout (KO) mice underwent 45 min LAD occlusion and 60 min reperfusion. Chimeric mice, created by bone marrow transplantation between B6 and eNOS KO mice, underwent 40 min LAD occlusion and 60 min reperfusion. Mice were treated either with vehicle or atorvastatin in 5% ethanol at a dose of 10 mg/kg IV 5 min before initiating reperfusion. Infarct size was evaluated by TTC and Phthalo blue staining. Results Atorvastatin treatment reduced infarct size in B6 mice by 19% (p<0.05). In eNOS KO vehicle-control mice, infarct size was comparable to that of B6 vehicle-control mice (p = NS). Atorvastatin treatment had no effect on infarct size in eNOS KO mice (p = NS). In chimeras, atorvastatin significantly reduced infarct size in B6/B6 (donor/recipient) mice and B6/KO mice (p<0.05), but not in KO/KO mice or KO/B6 mice (p = NS). Conclusions The results demonstrate that acute administration of atorvastatin significantly reduces myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury in an eNOS-dependent manner, probably through the post-transcriptional activation of eNOS in bone marrow-derived cells.

Abstract
Even when reperfusion therapy is applied as early as possible, survival and quality of life are compromised in a considerable number of patients with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction. Some cell death following transient coronary occlusion occurs during reperfusion, due to poor handling of calcium in the sarcoplasmic reticulum-mitochondria system, calpain activation, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial failure, all promoted by rapid normalization of intracellular pH. Various clinical trials have shown that infarct size can be limited by nonpharmacological strategies--such as ischemic postconditioning and remote ischemic conditioning--or by drugs--such as cyclosporine, insulin, glucagon-like peptide-1 agonists, beta-blockers, or stimulation of cyclic guanosine monophosphate synthesis. However, some clinical studies have yielded negative results, largely due to a lack of consistent preclinical data or a poor design, especially delayed administration. Large-scale clinical trials are therefore necessary, particularly those with primary clinical variables and combined therapies that consider age, sex, and comorbidities, to convert protection against reperfusion injury into a standard treatment for patients with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Blockade of platelet activation during primary percutaneous intervention for acute myocardial infarction is standard care to minimize stent thrombosis. To determine whether antiplatelet agents offer any direct cardioprotective effect, we tested whether they could modify infarction in a rabbit model of ischemia/reperfusion caused by reversible ligation of a coronary artery. METHODS AND RESULTS The P2Y₁₂ (adenosine diphosphate) receptor blocker cangrelor administered shortly before reperfusion in rabbits undergoing 30-minute regional ischemia/3-hour reperfusion reduced infarction from 38% of ischemic zone in control hearts to only 19%. Protection was dose dependent and correlated with the degree of inhibition of platelet aggregation. Protection was comparable to that seen with ischemic postconditioning (IPOC). Cangrelor protection, but not its inhibition of platelet aggregation, was abolished by the same signaling inhibitors that block protection from IPOC suggesting protection resulted from protective signaling rather than anticoagulation. As with IPOC, protection was lost when cangrelor administration was delayed until 10 minutes after reperfusion and no added protection was seen when cangrelor and IPOC were combined. These findings suggest both IPOC and cangrelor may protect by the same mechanism. No protection was seen when cangrelor was used in crystalloid-perfused isolated hearts indicating some component in whole blood is required for protection. Clopidogrel had a very slow onset of action requiring 2 days of treatment before platelets were inhibited, and only then the hearts were protected. Signaling inhibitors given just prior to reperfusion blocked clopidogrel's protection. Neither aspirin nor heparin was protective. CONCLUSIONS Clopidogrel and cangrelor protected rabbit hearts against infarction. The mechanism appears to involve signal transduction during reperfusion rather than inhibition of intravascular coagulation. We hypothesize that both drugs protect by activating IPOC's protective signaling to prevent reperfusion injury. If true, patients receiving P2Y₁₂ inhibitors before percutaneous intervention may already be postconditioned thus explaining failure of recent clinical trials of postconditioning drugs.

Abstract
This study was designed to evaluate the effect of long-term pretreatment with celecoxib, a cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor, on myocardial infarct size. Celecoxib (3 mg/kg/day i.p; n = 16) or vehicle (DMSO 50%; EtOH 15%; distilled water, n = 16) was administered chronically to male Sprague-Dawley rats through ALZET osmotic pumps for 28 days. Under anaesthesia, the animals were then subjected to left anterior descending coronary artery occlusion for 40 minutes, followed by 24-hour reperfusion. The results show that myocardial infarct size in celecoxib-treated rats was significantly reduced compared to the control group (37.5 +/- 2.5% versus 48.0 +/- 2.6% of the area at risk, P < 0.05, n = 10 per group). Accumulation of neutrophils, estimated by myeloperoxidase levels, indicated an increase in the ischemic area without any significant difference between groups. No significant difference was observed between the treated and vehicle groups in terms of plasma prostaglandin E2 and tumour necrosis factor-alpha. Apoptosis, evaluated by Bax/Bcl-2 and terminal dUTP nick-end labelled-positive cells, was significantly decreased in the subendocardial layer of the ischemic area in celecoxib-treated rats. This study indicates that pretreatment with celecoxib can reduce infarct size by a mechanism, which may involve apoptosis inhibition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Activated platelets might contribute to endothelial dysfunction in non-ischaemic territories during acute myocardial infarction. We assessed platelet deposition, coronary flow reserve and contractile function in remote cardiac regions after transient coronary occlusion and their association with systemic platelet activation. MATERIALS AND METHODS In 10 pigs (series A) subjected to 48-min occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD), 99mTc-platelet content in the right coronary artery (RCA) and its dependent myocardium was counted after reflow. In 10 pigs (series B) receiving the same occlusion of the RCA, the hyperaemic response at the LAD and systolic shortening in LAD-dependent myocardium were monitored after reperfusion. P-selectin expression on circulating platelets was assessed in both series by flow cytometry. RESULTS In series A, platelet counts in the RCA and non-ischaemic myocardium were correlated with platelet content, polymorphonuclear leukocyte infiltration and infarct size in the reperfused zone, as well as with the percentage of P-selectin-positive platelets after reflow. In series B, a transient reduction in peak hyperaemic response in the LAD and sustained contractile dysfunction in non-ischemic myocardium were observed after releasing the RCA occlusion, these changes being also correlated with platelet activation status. CONCLUSIONS Ischaemic injury triggers macro- and microvascular platelet deposition and causes an impairment in coronary flow reserve and contractile function in distant regions of the heart, which are related to activation of circulating platelets.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiopulmonary bypass and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) result in significant thrombin generation and activation of fibrinolysis. Thrombin contributes to myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in animal studies, but the role of thrombin in myocardial damage after CABG is unknown. OBJECTIVES We measured thrombin generation and fibrin turnover during reperfusion after CABG to evaluate their associations with postoperative hemodynamic changes and myocardial damage. METHODS One hundred patients undergoing primary, elective, on-pump CABG were prospectively enrolled. Plasma prothrombin fragment F(1+2) and D-dimer were measured preoperatively and at seven time points thereafter. Mass of the Mb fraction of creatine kinase (Ck-Mbm) and troponin T (TnT) were measured on the first postoperative day. RESULTS Reperfusion induced an escalation of thrombin generation and fibrin turnover despite full heparinization. F(1+2) during early reperfusion associated with postoperative pulmonary vascular resistance index. F(1+2) at 6 h after protamine administration correlated with Ck-Mbm (r = 0.40, P < 0.001) and TnT (r = 0.44, P < 0.001) at 18 h postoperatively. Patients with evidence of myocardial damage (highest quintiles of plasma Ck-Mbm and TnT) had significantly higher F(1+2) during reperfusion than others (P < 0.002). Logistic regression models identified F(1+2) during reperfusion to independently associate with postoperative myocardial damage (odds ratios 2.5-4.4, 95% confidence intervals 1.04-15.7). CONCLUSIONS Reperfusion caused a burst in thrombin generation and fibrin turnover despite generous heparinization. Thrombin generation during reperfusion after CABG associated with pulmonary vascular resistance and postoperative myocardial damage.

Abstract
Maintenance of a stable cell volume and intracellular pH is critical for normal cell function. Arguably, two of the most important ion transporters involved in these processes are the Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 (NHE1) and Na+ -K+ -2Cl- cotransporter isoform 1 (NKCC1). Both NHE1 and NKCC1 are stimulated by cell shrinkage and by numerous other stimuli, including a wide range of hormones and growth factors, and for NHE1, intracellular acidification. Both transporters can be important regulators of cell volume, yet their activity also, directly or indirectly, affects the intracellular concentrations of Na+, Ca2+, Cl-, K+, and H+. Conversely, when either transporter responds to a stimulus other than cell shrinkage and when the driving force is directed to promote Na+ entry, one consequence may be cell swelling. Thus stimulation of NHE1 and/or NKCC1 by a deviation from homeostasis of a given parameter may regulate that parameter at the expense of compromising others, a coupling that may contribute to irreversible cell damage in a number of pathophysiological conditions. This review addresses the roles of NHE1 and NKCC1 in the cellular responses to physiological and pathophysiological stress. The aim is to provide a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms and consequences of stress-induced stimulation of these transporters with focus on the heart, brain, and blood. The physiological stressors reviewed are metabolic/exercise stress, osmotic stress, and mechanical stress, conditions in which NHE1 and NKCC1 play important physiological roles. With respect to pathophysiology, the focus is on ischemia and severe hypoxia where the roles of NHE1 and NKCC1 have been widely studied yet remain controversial and incompletely elucidated.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The goal of this study was to assess whether selectin blockade reduces myocardial platelet deposition and platelet-mediated injury after transient ischemia. BACKGROUND Selectins participate in platelet adhesion to reperfused endothelium. METHODS Thiopental-anesthetized, open-chest pigs were subjected to mechanical injury of the left anterior descending coronary artery followed by a 48-min occlusion and 2 (n = 20) or 4 (n = 16) h of reperfusion. Fifteen minutes before occlusion, animals were blindly allocated to receive a continuous intravenous infusion of the selectin blocker fucoidan (30 microg/kg/min, plus a 1-mg/kg bolus in the latter group) or saline. In isolated rat hearts infused with thrombin-activated platelets, the effects of fucoidan (30 microg/ml) administered during reperfusion after 40 min of global ischemia were also analyzed. RESULTS Fucoidan did not prevent the development of cyclic reductions in coronary flow, but reduced the content of (99m)Tc-labeled platelets in reperfused myocardium after 2 h of reperfusion (23.4 +/- 3.3 vs. 42.1 +/- 8.3 x 10(6) platelets/g in treated and untreated animals, p = 0.03) and attenuated the impairment in the coronary flow reserve and reduced infarct size after 4 h (53 +/- 2% vs. 73 +/- 5% of the ischemic region, respectively, p = 0.003). Treated animals showed a trend toward less neutrophil infiltration early after reperfusion, but not after 4 h. In isolated hearts, fucoidan improved functional recovery and reduced coronary resistance and lactate dehydrogenase release, lacking any beneficial effects if given in the absence of platelets. CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that selectin-dependent adhesion is a prominent mechanism of platelet deposition in reperfused cardiac microvessels and highlight its potential as a therapeutic target in patients with acute myocardial infarction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary graft failure (PGF) secondary to ischemia-reperfusion injury is the main cause of death in the first month after lung transplantation. The aim of this study was to identify early cellular and immunologic events associated with PGF in human lung transplants. METHODS Induction of P-selectin, E-selectin and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and evaluation of leukocytes and platelets accumulation were investigated in 18 post-reperfusion surgical specimens of lung allografts by an immunohistochemical technique. RESULTS Selectins were restricted to the venular plexus after reperfusion as in the normal lung, whereas ICAM-1 was induced in all cases on alveolar capillaries. Numerous polymorphonuclear cells (18 of 18 cases) and aggregated platelets (7 of 18 cases) were identified along the venular plexus after reperfusion. Compared with the other patients, those with aggregated P-selectin-positive platelets were characterized by a longer duration of mechanical ventilation (p < 0.01), a lower PaO2/FiO2 ratio (p < 0.01) and the presence of radiologic edema (p < 0.05) within the first 3 post-operative days. CONCLUSIONS We showed in the reperfused lung a distinct expression of adhesion molecules on venous and capillary pulmonary endothelia that may influence the role of leukocytes and platelets during the early course of transplantation. Furthermore, the knowledge of an association between the presence of P-selectin-positive platelet aggregates and PGF criteria might have implications for graft management and therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We tested whether the combination of two known cardioprotective agents, the type-1 sodium-hydrogen exchanger inhibitor cariporide plus the adenosine A(1)/A(2a) receptor agonist AMP579 ([1S-[1a,2b,3b, 4a(S*)]]-4-[7-[[2-(3-chloro-2-thienyl)-1-methylpropyl]amino]-[(3)H]-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridyl-3-yl]cyclopentane carboxamide), acted additively to reduce myocardial infarct size. STUDY DESIGN Pigs underwent 1 hour of coronary artery occlusion and 3 hours reperfusion. Vehicle-treated controls were compared with animals treated before ischemia with low-dose and high-dose cariporide and AMP579, and low-dose cariporide plus AMP579. The effects of both agents, alone and in combination, were also tested in isolated porcine polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs). The PMN respiratory burst was induced with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and quantified by the increase in 2',7'-dichlorofluorescein fluorescence, measured by flow cytometry. RESULTS Infarct size in the control pigs was 65 +/- 1% of the area at risk. Cariporide dose-dependently reduced infarct size to 39 +/- 2% and 24 +/- 3% in the low- and high-dose groups, respectively. Infarct size was 54 +/- 3% in the low-dose AMP579 group and 47 +/- 3% with high dose. The combination of low doses of cariporide and AMP579 reduced infarction to 25 +/- 6% of the area at risk. In the PMN studies, cariporide and AMP579 alone had no effect on 2',7'-dichlorofluorescein fluorescence, but the combination of the two agents reduced the PMN 2',7'-dichlorofluorescein increase to 79 +/- 5% of the vehicle control response. CONCLUSIONS The preischemic combination of low doses of cariporide and AMP579 decreased myocardial infarct size more than either agent used alone in low concentration, indicating an additive effect of the two agents. Given the effects that cariporide plus AMP579 combination exerted on PMN activity, it appears that this combination has the potential to reduce PMN-mediated effects during myocardial reperfusion.

Abstract
P-selectin (CD62P), an adhesion molecule expressed on activated endothelial cells and platelets, mediates the initial attachment of leukocytes to the stimulated endothelium upon inflammation and the interaction between leukocytes and platelets. A soluble form of P-selectin is present in the serum of healthy individuals as a circulating protein and high levels have been described in various pathological situations. The aim of this study was to characterize P-selectin on porcine platelets and investigate the soluble form of this protein, which are uncharacterized in several animal species including pigs. A new monoclonal antibody (mAb) (SwPsel.1.9) against porcine P-selectin was produced using a mouse cell line transfected with pig P-selectin cDNA. This mAb together with a previously described mAb (P-sel.KO.2.5), produced in our laboratory, was used to develop an ELISA to quantify porcine P-selectin. No significant levels of soluble-porcine P-selectin were observed in healthy animals. However, the total amount of P-selectin measured in porcine platelets was similar to that found in humans. Increased levels of this circulating protein were detected in the plasma from pigs after allograft implantation. In vitro, P-selectin expression on platelet membrane was rapidly induced by PMA and thrombin, as assessed by flow cytometry. However, these activators did not stimulate the release of soluble P-selectin. Analysis of the proteolytic cleavage of this protein from COS-transfected cells revealed that PMA treatment failed to cause the shedding of membrane-bound P-selectin. These data suggest that porcine P-selectin is a suitable marker for inflammation and that the mechanism involved in the generation of circulating P-selectin is not proteolytic release.
