NAUNYN-SCHMIEDEBERG'S ARCHIVES OF PHARMACOLOGY 2023; 396:1633-1646. [PMID: 36971866 DOI: 10.1007/s00210-023-02469-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2022] [Accepted: 03/19/2023] [Indexed: 03/29/2023]
Abstract
Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a tissue damage during reperfusion after an ischemic condition. I/R injury is induced by pathological cases including stroke, myocardial infarction, circulatory arrest, sickle cell disease, acute kidney injury, trauma, and sleep apnea. It can lead to increased morbidity and mortality in the context of these processes. Mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the hallmarks of I/R insult, which is induced via reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, apoptosis, and autophagy. MicroRNAs (miRNAs, miRs) are non-coding RNAs that play a main regulatory role in gene expression. Recently, there are evidence, which miRNAs are the major modulators of cardiovascular diseases, especially myocardial I/R injury. Cardiovascular miRNAs, specifically miR-21, and probably miR-24 and miR-126 have protective effects on myocardial I/R injury. Trimetazidine (TMZ) is a new class of metabolic agents with an anti-ischemic activity. It has beneficial effects on chronic stable angina by suppressing mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) opening. The present review study addressed the different mechanistic effects of TMZ on cardiac I/R injury. Online databases including Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, and Cochrane library were assessed for published studies between 1986 and 2021. TMZ, an antioxidant and metabolic agent, prevents the cardiac reperfusion injury by regulating AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), cystathionine-γ-lyase enzyme (CSE)/hydrogen sulfide (H2S), and miR-21. Therefore, TMZ protects the heart against I/R injury by inducing key regulators such as AMPK, CSE/H2S, and miR-21.

Propofol-induced MiR-20b expression initiates endogenous cellular signal changes mitigating hypoxia/re-oxygenation-induced endothelial autophagy in vitro. Cell Death Dis 2020; 11:681. [PMID: 32826852 PMCID: PMC7442825 DOI: 10.1038/s41419-020-02828-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2020] [Revised: 07/08/2020] [Accepted: 07/13/2020] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
Certain miRNAs can attenuate hypoxia/re-oxygenation-induced autophagic cell death reported in our previous studies, but how these miRNAs regulate the autophagy-related cellular signaling pathway in preventing cell death is largely unknown. In the current study, the autophagy-related miRNAs of hsa-miR-20b were investigated in an in vitro model of hypoxia/re-oxygenation-induced endothelial autophagic cell death. Of these, miR-20b was found to be the most important miRNA which targeted on the key autophagy kinase ULK1 and inhibited hypoxia/re-oxygenation injury-induced autophagy by decreasing both autophagosomes and LC3I to II transition rate and P62 degradation. These processes were reversed by the transfection of an miR-20b inhibitor. Re-expression of ULK1 restores miR-20b-inhibited autophagy. Propofol, a commonly used anesthetic, promoted miR-20b and METTL3 expression and attenuated endothelial autophagic cell death. The inhibited endogenous expression of miR-20b or silenced METTL3 diminished the protective effect of propofol and accentuated autophagy. Additionally, METTL3 knockdown significantly inhibited miR-20b expression but up-regulated pri-miR-20b expression. Together, our data shows that propofol protects against endothelial autophagic cell death induced by hypoxia/re-oxygenation injury, associated with activation of METTL3/miR-20b/ULK1 cellular signaling.

Abstract
To investigate the effects of propofol on myocardial ischemia reperfusion in rats with type 2 diabetes, male adult rats were divided into five groups: Sham-operation (CC), ischemia-reperfusion (CI), low-dose propofol (LP), moderate-dose propofol (MP) and high-dose propofol (HP). The LP, MP and HP groups were administered with 6, 12 and 24 mg/kg/h propofol, respectively, prior to occlusion. Heart rate (HR), left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP) and the rate (dp/dt max) of left ventricular pressure rise in early systole (±dp/dt max) were recorded. The role of autophagy was also studied by measuring the levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), autophagy marker protein LC3II, mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)/phosphorylate (p)-mTOR and cardiac troponin T (cTnT). The myocardial morphological features were assessed using light and electron microscopy. The present results demonstrated that the HR, LVSP, +dp/dt and -dp/dt levels in the propofol groups (LP, MP and HP) were significantly increased (P<0.05) when compared with the CI group. The myocardial cells in the MP group showed mild edematous changes and partially dissolved mitochondrial cristae and membrane rupture. SOD, cTnT and MDA levels were significantly decreased (P<0.05), mTOR expression decreased significantly (P<0.05) and p-mTOR expression increased significantly in the MP group (P<0.05). The present study demonstrated the protective effects of propofol in T2DM rats exhibiting MIRI, with an optimal protective effect at an infusion rate of 12 mg/kg/h. Additionally, the results revealed that propofol led to significant reductions in LC3II and mTOR serum levels and the inhibition of autophagy in myocardial cells.

Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R)-related disorders, such as stroke, myocardial infarction, and peripheral vascular disease, are among the most frequent causes of disease and death. Tissue injury or death may result from the initial ischemic insult, primarily determined by the magnitude and duration of the interruption in blood supply and then by the subsequent reperfusion-induced damage. Various in vitro and in vivo models are currently available to study I/R mechanism in the brain and other tissues. However, thus far, no in ovo I/R model has been reported for understanding the I/R mechanisms and for faster drug screening. Here, we developed an in ovo Hook model of I/R by occluding and releasing the right vitelline artery of a chick embryo at 72 h of development. To validate the model and elucidate various underlying survival and death mechanisms, we employed imaging (Doppler blood flow imaging), biochemical, and blotting techniques and evaluated the cell death mechanism: autophagy and inflammation caused by I/R. In conclusion, the present model is useful in parallel with established in vitro and in vivo I/R models to understand the mechanisms of I/R development and its treatment.

Propofol post-conditioning alleviates hepatic ischaemia reperfusion injury via BRG1-mediated Nrf2/HO-1 transcriptional activation in human and mice. J Cell Mol Med 2017; 21:3693-3704.

Abstract
To explore the effects of propofol post-conditioning (PPC) on hepatic ischaemia/reperfusion injury (HIRI) and the potential mechanisms that might be involved in the interaction of Brahma-related gene1(BRG1) and Nuclear-related factor 2(Nrf2). Patients were randomized into PPC(n = 16) and non-PPC(NPC)( n = 21) groups. Propofol(2 mg/kg) was infused within 10 min. of the onset of liver reperfusion during liver transplantation in the PPC group. Liver function tests, as well as Brg1, Nrf2, Heme oxygenase-1(HO-1) and NADPH:quinone oxidoreductase1(NQO1) expression levels were evaluated. CMV-Brg1 mice were designed to investigate the role of Brg1 overexpression during HIRI. Brg1 and Nrf2 siRNA were used to examine the relationship between Brg1 and Nrf2/HO-1 pathways in propofol-mediated effects in a human hepatocyte(L02) hypoxia/reoxygenation(H/R) model. In patients, PPC attenuated both donor liver pathological and function injury, and reducing oxidative stress markers, compared to the NPC group, 24 hrs after surgery. PPC increased liver Brg1, Nrf2, HO-1 and NQO1 expression. In mice, PPC reduced HIRI by decreasing liver oxidative stress and activating Nrf2/HO-1 pathway, accompanied by up-regulation of BRG1 expression. BRG1 overexpression activated Nrf2/HO-1 transcription in CMV-BRG1 mice during HIRI. In vitro, PPC significantly elevated expression of Nrf2, HO-1 and NQO1, resulting in a reduction of cell DCFH-DA and 8-isoprostane levels and decreased lactate dehydrogenase levels, leading to an overall increase in cell viability. Moreover, the protective effects of propofol were partially abrogated in Nrf2-knock-down or BRG1-knock-down hepatocytes. Nrf2-knock-down drastically reduced protein expression of HO-1 and NQO1, while Brg1-knock-down decreased HO-1 expression. Propofol post-conditioning alleviates HIRI through BRG1-mediated Nrf2/HO-1 transcriptional activation.

Abstract
The current study aimed to examine the effects of propofol on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) in rats with type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and to assess the role of inflammatory mediators. Fifty healthy male adult Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into the sham, ischemia-reperfusion (IR), IR plus low, middle and high-dose (6, 12 and 24 mg/kg/h, intravenous) propofol groups. The rats of all the groups were fed a high-sugar and high-fat diet for 8 weeks and streptozotocin (30 mg/kg, intraperitoneally) was used to establish the T2DM model. Apart from the sham group rats, MIRI was induced by ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery for 30 min, followed by reperfusion for 2 h. Heart rate (HR), left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP), and the rate of left ventricular pressure increase in early systole (± dp/dtmax) were recorded. Levels of cardiac troponin T (cTnT), nitric oxide (NO), endothelin-1 (ET-1), interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α were also measured. Myocardial lesions were observed under light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Compared with levels prior to arterial occlusion, HR, LVSP, and ± dp/dtmax were significantly reduced (P<0.05) following occlusion for 30 min and reperfusion for 2 h. The administration of propofol ameliorated the cardiac function of rats as reflected by the increase in HR, LVSP and ± dp/dtmax. In addition, the administration of propofol increased the serum NO concentration, and reduced ET-1 and cTnT levels, as well as levels of inflammatory mediators including IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α. Thus, propofol exerts protective effects against MIRI in T2DM rats by increasing NO and reducing ET-1 and the inflammatory mediators.

Investigating the involvement of TRPV 1 ion channels in remote hind limb preconditioning-induced cardioprotection in rats. Naunyn Schmiedebergs Arch Pharmacol 2016; 390:117-126.

Abstract
Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) treatment strategy is a breakthrough in the field of cardiovascular pharmacology as it has the potential to attenuate myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. However, the underlying intracellular pathways have not been widely explored. The present study intends to explore the possible role of TRPV1 channels in mediating remote hind limb preconditioning-induced cardioprotection. Remote hind limb preconditioning stimulus (4 cycles in succession) was delivered by tying the blood pressure cuff at the inguinal level of the rat. The Langendorff system was used to perfuse the isolated heart and afterward was subjected to 30 min of global ischemia and 120 min of reperfusion. Sustained ischemia and, thereafter, reperfusion led to cardiac injury that was assessed in terms of infarct size, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release, creatine kinase (CK) release, left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP), left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP), +dp/dtmax, -dp/dtmin, heart rate, rate pressure product, and coronary flow rate. The pharmacological modulators employed included capsaicin as TRPV1 agonist and capsazepine as TRPV1 antagonist. Remote hind limb preconditioning stimulus and capsaicin preconditioning (5 and 10 mg/kg) led to significant reduction in infarct size, LVEDP, LDH release, CK release, and significant improvement in LVDP, +dp/dtmax, -dp/dtmin, heart rate, rate pressure product, and coronary flow rate. However, remote hind limb preconditioning-induced cardioprotective effects were considerably abolished in the presence of capsazepine (2.5 and 5 mg/kg). This indicates that remote hind limb preconditioning stimulus possibly activates TRPV1 channels to produce cardioprotective effects.

Abstract
Intestinal microbiota determine severity of myocardial infarction in rats. We determined whether low molecular weight metabolites derived from intestinal microbiota and transported to the systemic circulation are linked to severity of myocardial infarction. Plasma from rats treated for seven days with the non-absorbed antibiotic vancomycin or a mixture of streptomycin, neomycin, polymyxin B and bacitracin was analyzed using mass spectrometry-based metabolite profiling platforms. Antibiotic-induced changes in the abundance of individual groups of intestinal microbiota dramatically altered the host’s metabolism. Hierarchical clustering of dissimilarities separated the levels of 284 identified metabolites from treated vs. untreated rats; 193 were altered by the antibiotic treatments with a tendency towards decreased metabolite levels. Catabolism of the aromatic amino acids phenylalanine, tryptophan and tyrosine was the most affected pathway comprising 33 affected metabolites. Both antibiotic treatments decreased the severity of an induced myocardial infarction in vivo by 27% and 29%, respectively. We then determined whether microbial metabolites of the amino acids phenylalanine, tryptophan and tyrosine were linked to decreased severity of myocardial infarction. Vancomycin-treated rats were administered amino acid metabolites prior to ischemia/reperfusion studies. Oral or intravenous pretreatment of rats with these amino acid metabolites abolished the decrease in infarct size conferred by vancomycin. Inhibition of JAK-2 (AG-490, 10 μM), Src kinase (PP1, 20 μM), Akt/PI3 kinase (Wortmannin, 100 nM), p44/42 MAPK (PD98059, 10 μM), p38 MAPK (SB203580, 10 μM), or KATP channels (glibenclamide, 3 μM) abolished cardioprotection by vancomycin, indicating microbial metabolites are interacting with cell surface receptors to transduce their signals through Src kinase, cell survival pathways and KATP channels. These inhibitors have no effect on myocardial infarct size in untreated rats. This study links gut microbiota metabolites to severity of myocardial infarction and may provide future opportunities for novel diagnostic tests and interventions for the prevention of cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
To investigate the mechanism of combination therapy of propofol and sevoflurane on MAP2K3 level and myocardial apoptosis induced by ischemia-reperfusion (IR) in rat. A total of 30 SD rats were randomly separated into 3 groups: normal, IR (ligation of left coronary artery), and IR+ propofol and sevoflurane (IR+P+S). Different methods were used to detect the serum index associated IR injury. TUNEL assay was used to analyze the apoptotic cells of rat heart tissues. qRT-PCR was used to analyze the mRNA levels of cell apoptosis related proteins such as Bcl-2, Bax, and MAP2K3. Western blotting was used to detect the expression of Bcl-2, Bax, MAP2K3, and Caspase-3 of heart tissues. Compared with normal group, serum LDH, cTnI, and CK-MB levels in IR group were significantly increased with time increasing (P<0.05), while that in IR+P+S group were significantly decreased compared with that in IR group (P<0.05). The percentage of apoptotic cells of heart tissue in IR+P+S group was larger than that in IR group (P<0.05). Compared with IR group, mRNA expression of MAP2K3 and Bax were significantly decreased with Bcl-2 was significantly increased in IR+P+S group (P<0.05). Also, expression of MAP2K3, Caspase-3, and Bcl-2 in IR+P+S group were statistically lower while Bax was statistically higher than that in IR group (P<0.05). Our study suggested that combination therapy of propofol and sevoflurane may protect myocardial cells from damage during IR through decreasing MAP2K3 level and reducing cell apoptosis via Bcl-2/Bax pathway.

[PMID: 25714879 PMCID: PMC4418357 DOI: 10.1590/1414-431x20144222] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2014] [Accepted: 10/10/2014] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
This study aimed to determine the effects of different concentrations of propofol
(2,6-diisopropylphenol) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced expression and release of
high-mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1) in mouse macrophages. Mouse macrophage cell
line RAW264.7 cells were randomly divided into 5 treatment groups. Expression levels
of HMGB1 mRNA were detected using RT-PCR, and cell culture
supernatant HMGB1 protein levels were detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent
assay (ELISA). Translocation of HMGB1 from the nucleus to the cytoplasm in
macrophages was observed by Western blotting and activity of nuclear factor
kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) in the nucleus was detected
using ELISA. HMGB1 mRNA expression levels increased significantly in
the cell culture supernatant and in cells after 24 h of stimulating RAW264.7 cells
with LPS (500 ng/mL). However, HMGB1 mRNA expression levels in the
P2 and P3 groups, which received 500 ng/mL LPS with 25 or 50 μmol/mL propofol,
respectively, were significantly lower than those in the group receiving LPS
stimulation (P<0.05). After stimulation by LPS, HMGB1 protein levels were reduced
significantly in the nucleus but were increased in the cytoplasm (P<0.05).
Simultaneously, the activity of NF-κB was enhanced significantly (P<0.05). After
propofol intervention, HMGB1 translocation from the nucleus to the cytoplasm and
NF-κB activity were inhibited significantly (each P<0.05). Thus, propofol can
inhibit the LPS-induced expression and release of HMGB1 by inhibiting HMGB1
translocation and NF-κB activity in RAW264.7 cells, suggesting propofol may be
protective in patients with sepsis.
