Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction (MI) is a sudden, severe cardiac ischemic event that results in the death of up to one billion cardiomyocytes (CMs) and subsequent decrease in cardiac function. Engineered cardiac tissues (ECTs) are a promising approach to deliver the necessary mass of CMs to remuscularize the heart. However, the hypoxic environment of the heart post-MI presents a critical challenge for CM engraftment. Here, we present a high-throughput, systematic study targeting several physiological features of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived CMs (hiPSC-CMs), including metabolism, Wnt signaling, substrate, heat shock, apoptosis, and mitochondrial stabilization, to assess their efficacy in promoting ischemia resistance in hiPSC-CMs. The results of 2D experiments identify hypoxia preconditioning (HPC) and metabolic conditioning as having a significant influence on hiPSC-CM function in normoxia and hypoxia. Within 3D engineered cardiac tissues (ECTs), metabolic conditioning with maturation media (MM), featuring high fatty acid and calcium concentration, results in a 1.5-fold increase in active stress generation as compared to RPMI/B27 control ECTs in normoxic conditions. Yet, this functional improvement is lost after hypoxia treatment. Interestingly, HPC can partially rescue the function of MM-treated ECTs after hypoxia. Our systematic and iterative approach provides a strong foundation for assessing and leveraging in vitro culture conditions to enhance the hypoxia resistance, and thus the successful clinical translation, of hiPSC-CMs in cardiac regenerative therapies.

Effects of ketone body 3-hydroxybutyrate on cardiac and mitochondrial function during donation after circulatory death heart transplantation. Sci Rep 2024; 14:757.

Abstract
Normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) allows assessment of therapeutic interventions prior to donation after circulatory death transplantation. Sodium-3-hydroxybutyrate (3-OHB) increases cardiac output in heart failure patients and diminishes ischemia-reperfusion injury, presumably by improving mitochondrial metabolism. We investigated effects of 3-OHB on cardiac and mitochondrial function in transplanted hearts and in cardiac organoids. Donor pigs (n = 14) underwent circulatory death followed by NRP. Following static cold storage, hearts were transplanted into recipient pigs. 3-OHB or Ringer's acetate infusions were initiated during NRP and after transplantation. We evaluated hemodynamics and mitochondrial function. 3-OHB mediated effects on contractility, relaxation, calcium, and conduction were tested in cardiac organoids from human pluripotent stem cells. Following NRP, 3-OHB increased cardiac output (P < 0.0001) by increasing stroke volume (P = 0.006), dP/dt (P = 0.02) and reducing arterial elastance (P = 0.02). Following transplantation, infusion of 3-OHB maintained mitochondrial respiration (P = 0.009) but caused inotropy-resistant vasoplegia that prevented weaning. In cardiac organoids, 3-OHB increased contraction amplitude (P = 0.002) and shortened contraction duration (P = 0.013) without affecting calcium handling or conduction velocity. 3-OHB had beneficial cardiac effects and may have a potential to secure cardiac function during heart transplantation. Further studies are needed to optimize administration practice in donors and recipients and to validate the effect on mitochondrial function.

Abstract
Moderate reactive oxygen species (ROS) at reperfusion would trigger cardioprotection and various antioxidants for pharmacological preconditioning failed to achieve cardioprotection. The causes for different roles of preischemic ROS during cardiac ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) require reevaluation. We investigated the precise role of ROS and its working model in this study. Different doses of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2, the most stable form of ROS) were added 5 min before ischemia using isolated perfused rat hearts, only moderate-dose H2O2 preconditioning (H2O2PC) achieved contractile recovery, whereas the low dose and high dose led to injury. Similar results were observed in isolated rat cardiomyocytes on cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]c) overload, ROS production, the recovery of Ca2+ transient, and cell shortening. Based on the data mentioned above, we set up a mathematics model to describe the effects of H2O2PC with the fitting curve by the percentage of recovery of heart function and Ca2+ transient in I/R. Besides, we used the two models to define the initial thresholds of H2O2PC achieving cardioprotection. We also detected the expression of redox enzymes and Ca2+ signaling toolkits to explain the mathematics models of H2O2PC in a biological way. The expression of tyrosine 705 phosphorylation of STAT3, Nuclear factor E2-related factor 2, manganese superoxide dismutase, phospholamban, catalase, ryanodine receptors, and sarcoendoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase 2 were similar with the control I/R and low-dose H2O2PC but were increased in the moderate H2O2PC and decreased in the high-dose H2O2PC. Thus, we concluded that preischemic ROS are of dual role in cardiac I/R.

Renin-Angiotensin System Antagonism Protects the Diabetic Heart from Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury in Variable Hyperglycemia Duration Settings by a Glucose Transporter Type 4-Mediated Pathway. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2023; 16:238. [PMID: 37259385 PMCID: PMC9967344 DOI: 10.3390/ph16020238] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2022] [Revised: 01/15/2023] [Accepted: 02/01/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, specifically, the ischemic heart diseases (IHD). The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) affects the heart directly and indirectly. However, its role in the protection of the heart against I/R injury is not completely understood. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the efficacy of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor and Angiotensin II receptor (AT1R) blocker or a combination thereof in protection of the heart from I/R injury. METHODS Hearts isolated from adult male Wistar rats (n = 8) were subjected to high glucose levels; acute hyperglycemia or streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes were used in this study. Hearts were subjected to I/R injury, treated with Captopril, an ACE inhibitor; Losartan, an AT1R antagonist; or a combination thereof. Hemodynamics data were measured using a suitable software for that purpose. Additionally, infarct size was evaluated using 2,3,5-Triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining. The levels of apoptosis markers (caspase-3 and -8), antioxidant enzymes, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT), nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), and glucose transporter type 4 (GLUT-4) protein levels were evaluated by Western blotting. Pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines levels were evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS Captopril and Losartan alone or in combination abolished the effect of I/R injury in hearts subjected to acute hyperglycemia or STZ-induced diabetes. There was a significant (p < 0.05) recovery in hemodynamics, infarct size, and apoptosis markers following the treatment with Captopril, Losartan, or their combination. Treatment with Captopril, Losartan, or their combination significantly (p < 0.05) reduced pro-inflammatory cytokines and increased GLUT-4 protein levels. CONCLUSIONS The blockade of the RAS system protected the diabetic heart from I/R injury. This protection followed a pathway that utilizes GLUT-4 to decrease the apoptosis markers, pro-inflammatory cytokines, and to increase the anti-inflammatory cytokines. This protection seems to employ a pathway which is not involving ERK1/2 and eNOS.

Abstract
Cellular disease and senescence are often accompanied by an imbalance in the local oxygen supply. Under hypoxia, mitochondrial NADH and FADH2 cannot be oxidized by the mitochondrial electron transport chain, which leads to the accumulation of reducing equivalents and subsequent reduction stress. Detecting changes in intracellular NADH levels is expected to allow an assessment of stress. We synthesized a red fluorescent probe, DPMQL1, with high selectivity and sensitivity for detecting NADH in living cells. The probe DPMQL1 has strong anti-interference abilities toward various potential biological interferences, such as metal ions, anions, redox species, and other biomolecules. In addition, its detection limit can reach the nanomolar level, meaning it can display small changes in NADH levels in living cells, so as to realize the evaluation of cell-based hypoxic stress.

Uridine treatment prevents myocardial injury in rat models of acute ischemia and ischemia/reperfusion by activating the mitochondrial ATP-dependent potassium channel. Sci Rep 2021; 11:16999.

Abstract
The effect of uridine on the myocardial ischemic and reperfusion injury was investigated. A possible mechanism of its cardioprotective action was established. Two rat models were used: (1) acute myocardial ischemia induced by occlusion of the left coronary artery for 60 min; and (2) myocardial ischemia/reperfusion with 30-min ischemia and 120-min reperfusion. In both models, treatment with uridine (30 mg/kg) prevented a decrease in cell energy supply and in the activity of the antioxidant system, as well as an increase in the level of lipid hydroperoxides and diene conjugates. This led to a reduction of the necrosis zone in the myocardium and disturbances in the heart rhythm. The blocker of the mitochondrial ATP-dependent potassium (mitoKATP) channel 5-hydroxydecanoate limited the positive effects of uridine. The data indicate that the cardioprotective action of uridine may be related to the activation of the mitoKATP channel. Intravenously injected uridine was more rapidly eliminated from the blood in hypoxia than in normoxia, and the level of the mitoKATP channel activator UDP in the myocardium after uridine administration increased. The results suggest that the use of uridine can be a potentially effective approach to the management of cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Cardiac and vascular diseases are often associated with increased oxidative stress and inflammation, and both may contribute to the disease progression. However, successful applications of antioxidants in the clinical setting are very rare and specific anti-inflammatory therapeutics only emerged recently. Reasons for this rely on the great diversity of oxidative stress and inflammatory cells that can either act as cardioprotective or cause tissue damage in the heart. Recent large-scale clinical trials found that highly specific anti-inflammatory therapies using monoclonal antibodies against cytokines resulted in lower cardiovascular mortality in patients with pre-existing atherosclerotic disease. In addition, unspecific antiinflammatory medication and established cardiovascular drugs with pleiotropic immunomodulatory properties such as angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or statins have proven beneficial cardiovascular effects. Normalization of oxidative stress seems to be a common feature of these therapies, which can be explained by a close interaction/crosstalk of the cellular redox state and inflammatory processes. In this review, we give an overview of cardiac reactive oxygen species (ROS) sources and processes of cardiac inflammation as well as the connection of ROS and inflammation in ischemic cardiomyopathy in order to shed light on possible cardioprotective interventions.

Abstract
Mitochondria play a fundamental role in the energetics of cardiac cells. Moreover, mitochondria are involved in cardiac ischemia/reperfusion injury by opening the mitochondrial permeability transition pore which is the major cause of cell death. The preservation of mitochondrial function is an essential component of the cardioprotective mechanism. The involvement of mitochondrial K+ transport in this complex phenomenon seems to be well established. Several mitochondrial K+ channels in the inner mitochondrial membrane, such as ATP-sensitive, voltage-regulated, calcium-activated and Na+-activated channels, have been discovered. This obliges us to ask the following question: why is the simple potassium ion influx process carried out by several different mitochondrial potassium channels? In this review, we summarize the current knowledge of both the properties of mitochondrial potassium channels in cardiac mitochondria and the current understanding of their multidimensional functional role. We also critically summarize the pharmacological modulation of these proteins within the context of cardiac ischemia/reperfusion injury and cardioprotection.

Abstract
Post-translational modifications based on redox reactions "switch on-off" the biological activity of different downstream targets, modifying a myriad of processes and providing an efficient mechanism for signaling regulation in physiological and pathological conditions. Such modifications depend on the generation of redox components, such as reactive oxygen species and nitric oxide. Therefore, as the oxidative or nitrosative milieu prevailing in the reperfused heart is determinant for protective signaling, in this review we defined the impact of redox-based post-translational modifications resulting from either oxidative/nitrosative signaling or oxidative/nitrosative stress that occurs during reperfusion damage. The role that cardioprotective conditioning strategies have had to establish that such changes occur at different subcellular levels, particularly in mitochondria, is also presented. Another section is devoted to the possible mechanism of signal delivering of modified proteins. Finally, we discuss the possible efficacy of redox-based therapeutic strategies against reperfusion damage.

Abstract
In this review, we describe key signaling pathways regulating potassium channels present in the inner mitochondrial membrane. The signaling cascades covered here include phosphorylation, redox reactions, modulation by calcium ions and nucleotides. The following types of potassium channels have been identified in the inner mitochondrial membrane of various tissues: ATP-sensitive, Ca2+-activated, voltage-gated and two-pore domain potassium channels. The direct roles of these channels involve regulation of mitochondrial respiration, membrane potential and synthesis of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Changes in channel activity lead to diverse pro-life and pro-death responses in different cell types. Hence, characterizing the signaling pathways regulating mitochondrial potassium channels will facilitate understanding the physiological role of these proteins. Additionally, we describe in this paper certain regulatory mechanisms, which are unique to mitochondrial potassium channels.

Abstract
The experimental study of the cardioprotective effect of uridine, the metabolic precursor of the endogenous activator of mitochondrial ATP-dependent K+-channels (mitoKATP-channels), was performed using the model of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/RP) in rats. Ischemia for 30 min followed by reperfusion for 120 min resulted in a significant decrease in ATP and phosphocreatine (PC) content, intensification of lipid peroxidation (LPO), and inhibition of the antioxidant system (AOS) in cardiomyocytes. Uridine in a dose of 30 mg/kg, administered intravenously prior to reperfusion, had a protective effect on myocardial metabolism in the I/RP zone. It prevented the decrease of ATP and PC, limited the LPO processes, evaluated by the content of lipid hydroperoxides and conjugated dienes, and improved the AOS state by, preventing the decrease of superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and increasing the content of reduced glutathione (GSH). The mitoKATP-channel blocker 5-hydroxydecanoate (5-HD, 5 mg/kg) eliminated the ability of uridine to maintain the ATP level and to exhibit its positive effect on the intensity of the LPO and activity of AOS. The obtained data allow us to conclude that activation of mitoKATP-channels play an important role in the mechanism of the cardioprotective effect of uridine in I/RP damage of myocardium.

The Role of Mitochondria in the Mechanisms of Cardiac Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury. Antioxidants (Basel) 2019; 8:antiox8100454.

Abstract
Mitochondria play a critical role in maintaining cellular function by ATP production. They are also a source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and proapoptotic factors. The role of mitochondria has been established in many aspects of cell physiology/pathophysiology, including cell signaling. Mitochondria may deteriorate under various pathological conditions, including ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury. Mitochondrial injury can be one of the main causes for cardiac and other tissue injuries by energy stress and overproduction of toxic reactive oxygen species, leading to oxidative stress, elevated calcium and apoptotic and necrotic cell death. However, the interplay among these processes in normal and pathological conditions is still poorly understood. Mitochondria play a critical role in cardiac IR injury, where they are directly involved in several pathophysiological mechanisms. We also discuss the role of mitochondria in the context of mitochondrial dynamics, specializations and heterogeneity. Also, we wanted to stress the existence of morphologically and functionally different mitochondrial subpopulations in the heart that may have different sensitivities to diseases and IR injury. Therefore, various cardioprotective interventions that modulate mitochondrial stability, dynamics and turnover, including various pharmacologic agents, specific mitochondrial antioxidants and uncouplers, and ischemic preconditioning can be considered as the main strategies to protect mitochondrial and cardiovascular function and thus enhance longevity.

Ischemic preconditioning protects against cardiac ischemia reperfusion injury without affecting succinate accumulation or oxidation. J Mol Cell Cardiol 2018; 123:88-91. [PMID: 30118790 DOI: 10.1016/j.yjmcc.2018.08.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2018] [Revised: 08/06/2018] [Accepted: 08/13/2018] [Indexed: 01/23/2023]
Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury occurs when blood supply to an organ is disrupted and then restored, and underlies many disorders, notably myocardial infarction and stroke. While reperfusion of ischemic tissue is essential for survival, it also initiates cell death through generation of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS). Recent work has revealed a novel pathway underlying ROS production at reperfusion in vivo in which the accumulation of succinate during ischemia and its subsequent rapid oxidation at reperfusion drives ROS production at complex I by reverse electron transport (RET). Pharmacologically inhibiting ischemic succinate accumulation, or slowing succinate metabolism at reperfusion, have been shown to be cardioprotective against IR injury. Here, we determined whether ischemic preconditioning (IPC) contributes to cardioprotection by altering kinetics of succinate accumulation and oxidation during IR. Mice were subjected to a 30-minute occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery followed by reperfusion, with or without a protective IPC protocol prior to sustained ischemia. We found that IPC had no effect on ischemic succinate accumulation with both control and IPC mice having profound increases in succinate compared to normoxia. Furthermore, after only 1-minute reperfusion succinate was rapidly metabolised returning to near pre-ischemic levels in both groups. We conclude that IPC does not affect ischemic succinate accumulation, or its oxidation at reperfusion.

Resveratrol Ameliorates Mitochondrial Elongation via Drp1/Parkin/PINK1 Signaling in Senescent-Like Cardiomyocytes. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2017; 2017:4175353.

Abstract
Resveratrol is widely known for its antiaging properties and exerts cardiovascular protective effects in different experimental models. The role of resveratrol in regulating mitochondrial functions and dynamics during the cardiac aging process remains poorly understood. In this study, the effects of resveratrol on mitochondrial morphology and mitochondrial depolarization and on expressions of Drp1, parkin, PINK1, and LC3 were investigated in H9c2 cells after D-galactose treatment that induced senescent-like cardiomyocytes. The results show that downregulation of Drp1 markedly increased mitochondrial elongation. Senescent-like cardiomyocytes were more resistant to CCCP-induced mitochondrial depolarization, which was accompanied by suppressed expression of parkin, PINK1, and LC3-II. Resveratrol treatment significantly increased Drp1 expression, ameliorated mitochondrial elongation, and increased the mitochondrial translocations of parkin and PINK1. In addition, resveratrol significantly enhanced LC3-II expression and decreased TOM20-labeled mitochondrial content. Resveratrol also suppressed the phosphorylation of parkin and PINK1, which may relate to its abilities to degrade the impaired mitochondria in senescent-like cardiomyocytes. These findings show that suppressing mitochondrial elongation in a Drp1-dependent manner is involved in the effect of resveratrol on attenuating the development of aging cardiomyocytes. Activation of parkin and PINK1 may be a potential mechanism of resveratrol for treating cardiovascular complications related to aging.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are key pathological signals expressed in inflammatory diseases such as cancer, ischemic conditions and atherosclerosis. An ideal drug delivery system should not only be responsive to these signals but also should not elicit an unfavourable host response. This study presents an innovative platform for drug delivery where a natural/synthetic composite system composed of collagen type I and a synthesized polythioether, ensures a dual stimuli-responsive behaviour. Collagen type I is an extracellular matrix constituent protein, responsive to matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) cleavage per se. Polythioethers are stable synthetic polymers characterized by the presence of sulphur, which undergoes a ROS-responsive swelling switch. A polythioether was synthesised, functionalized and tested for cytotoxicity. Optimal conditions to fabricate a composite natural/synthetic hollow sphere construct were optimised by a template-based method. Collagen-polythioether hollow spheres were fabricated, revealing uniform size and ROS-triggered nanoporation features. Cellular metabolic activity of H9C2 cardiomyoblasts remained unaffected upon exposure to the spheres. Our natural/synthetic hollow microspheres exhibit the potential for use as a pathological stimuli-responsive reservoir system for applications in inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Excessive production of oxygen free radicals has been regarded as a causative common denominator of many pathological processes in the animal kingdom. Hydroxyl and nitrosyl radicals represent the major cause of the destruction of biomolecules either by a direct reaction or by triggering a chain reaction of free radicals. Scavenging of free radicals may act preventively or therapeutically. A number of substances that preferentially react with free radicals can serve as scavengers, thus increasing the internal capacity/activity of endogenous antioxidants and protecting cells and tissues against oxidative damage. Molecular hydrogen (H(2)) reacts with strong oxidants, such as hydroxyl and nitrosyl radicals, in the cells, that enables utilization of its potential for preventive and therapeutic applications. H(2) rapidly diffuses into tissues and cells without affecting metabolic redox reactions and signaling reactive species. H(2) reduces oxidative stress also by regulating gene expression, and functions as an anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic agent. There is a growing body of evidence based on the results of animal experiments and clinical observations that H(2) may represent an effective antioxidant for the prevention of oxidative stress-related diseases. Application of molecular hydrogen in situations with excessive production of free radicals, in particular, hydroxyl and nitrosyl radicals is relatively simple and effective, therefore, it deserves special attention.

Abstract
KEY POINTS Pre-ischaemic administration of aminooxiacetate (AOA), an inhibitor of the malate-aspartate shuttle (MAS), provides cardioprotection against ischaemia-reperfusion injury. The underlying mechanism remains unknown. We examined whether transient inhibition of the MAS during ischaemia and early reperfusion by AOA treatment could prevent mitochondrial damage at later reperfusion. The AOA treatment preserved mitochondrial respiratory capacity with reduced mitochondrial oxidative stress during late reperfusion to the same extent as ischaemic preconditioning (IPC). However, AOA treatment, but not IPC, reduced the myocardial interstitial concentration of tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates at the onset of reperfusion. The results obtained in the present study demonstrate that metabolic regulation by inhibition of the MAS at the onset of reperfusion may be beneficial for the preservation of mitochondrial function during late reperfusion in an IR-injured heart. ABSTRACT Mitochondrial dysfunction plays a central role in ischaemia-reperfusion (IR) injury. Pre-ischaemic administration of aminooxyacetate (AOA), an inhibitor of the malate-aspartate shuttle (MAS), provides cardioprotection against IR injury, although the underlying mechanism remains unknown. We hypothesized that a transient inhibition of the MAS during ischaemia and early reperfusion could preserve mitochondrial function at later phase of reperfusion in the IR-injured heart to the same extent as ischaemic preconditioning (IPC), which is a well-validated cardioprotective strategy against IR injury. In the present study, we show that pre-ischaemic administration of AOA preserved mitochondrial complex I-linked state 3 respiration and fatty acid oxidation during late reperfusion in IR-injured isolated rat hearts. AOA treatment also attenuated the excessive emission of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species during state 3 with complex I-linked substrates during late reperfusion, which was consistent with reduced oxidative damage in the IR-injured heart. As a result, AOA treatment reduced infarct size after reperfusion. These protective effects of MAS inhibition on the mitochondria were similar to those of IPC. Intriguingly, the protection of mitochondrial function by AOA treatment appears to be different from that of IPC because AOA treatment, but not IPC, downregulated myocardial tricarboxilic acid (TCA)-cycle intermediates at the onset of reperfusion. MAS inhibition thus preserved mitochondrial respiratory capacity and decreased mitochondrial oxidative stress during late reperfusion in the IR-injured heart, at least in part, via metabolic regulation of TCA cycle intermediates in the mitochondria at the onset of reperfusion.

Abstract
DJ‑1 protein, as a multifunctional intracellular protein, has been demonstrated to serve a critical role in regulating cell survival and oxidative stress. To provide in vivo evidence that DJ‑1 is involved in the delayed cardioprotection induced by ischemic preconditioning (IPC) against oxidative stress caused by ischemia/reperfusion (I/R), the present study subjected male Sprague‑Dawley rats to IPC (3 cycles of 5‑min coronary occlusion/5‑min reperfusion) 24 h prior to I/R (30‑min coronary occlusion/120‑min reperfusion). A lentiviral vector containing short hairpin RNA was injected into the left ventricle three weeks prior to IPC, to knockdown DJ‑1 in situ. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine kinase‑MB (CK‑MB) release, infarct size, cardiac function, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activities, malondialdehyde (MDA), intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), and DJ‑1 protein expression levels were assessed. IPC caused a significant increase in the expression levels of DJ‑1 protein. In addition, IPC reduced LDH and CK‑MB release, attenuated myocardial infarct size, improved cardiac function following I/R, and inhibited the elevation of ROS and MDA and the decrease in activities of the antioxidant enzymes SOD, CAT and GPx. However, in situ knockdown of DJ‑1 attenuated the IPC‑induced delayed cardioprotection, and reversed the inhibitory effect of IPC on I/R‑induced oxidative stress. The present study therefore provided novel evidence that DJ‑1 is involved in the delayed cardioprotection of IPC against I/R injury in vivo. Notably, DJ‑1 is required for IPC to inhibit I/R‑induced oxidative stress.

Abstract
We have recently shown that DJ-1 is implicated in the delayed cardioprotective effect of hypoxic preconditioning (HPC) against hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury as an endogenous protective protein. This study aims to further investigate the underlying mechanism by which DJ-1 mediates the delayed cardioprotection of HPC against H/R-induced oxidative stress. Using a well-characterized cellular model of HPC from rat heart-derived H9c2 cells, we found that HPC promoted nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and its cytoplasmic inhibitor Kelch-like ECH-associated protein-1 (Keap1) dissociation and resulted in increased nuclear translocation, antioxidant response element-binding, and transcriptional activity of Nrf2 24 hours after HPC, with subsequent upregulation of manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), which provided delayed protection against H/R-induced oxidative stress in normal H9c2 cells. However, the aforementioned effects of HPC were abolished in DJ-1-knockdown H9c2 cells, which were restored by restoration of DJ-1 expression. Importantly, we showed that inhibition of the Nrf2 pathway in H9c2 cells mimicked the effects of DJ-1 knockdown and abolished HPC-derived induction of antioxidative enzymes (MnSOD and HO-1) and the delayed cardioprotection. In addition, inhibition of Nrf2 also reversed the effects of restored DJ-1 expression on induction of antioxidative enzymes and delayed cardioprotection by HPC in DJ-1-knockdown H9c2 cells. Taken together, this work revealed that activation of Nrf2 pathway and subsequent upregulation of antioxidative enzymes could be a critical mechanism by which DJ-1 mediates the delayed cardioprotection of HPC against H/R-induced oxidative stress in H9c2 cells.

Abstract
T-LAK-cell-originated protein kinase (TOPK) is a PDZ-binding kinase (PBK) that was recently identified as a novel member of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family. It has been shown to play an important role in many cellular functions. However, its role in cardiac function remains unclear. Thus, we have herein explored the biological function of TOPK in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) and oxidative stress injury in H9C2 cardiomyocytes. I/R and ischemic preconditioning (IPC) were induced in rats by 3-hour reperfusion after 30-min occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery and by 3 cycles of 5-min I/R. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was used to induce oxidative stress in H9C2 cardiomyocytes. TOPK expression was analyzed by western blotting, RT-PCR, immunohistochemical staining, and immunofluorescence imaging studies. The effects of TOPK gene overexpression and its inhibition via its inhibitor HI-TOPK-032 on cell viability and Bcl-2, Bax, ERK1/2, and p-ERK1/2 protein expression were analyzed by MTS assay and western blotting, respectively. The results showed that IPC alleviated myocardial I/R injury and induced TOPK activation. Furthermore, H2O2 induced TOPK phosphorylation in a time-dependent manner. Interestingly, TOPK inhibition aggravated the H2O2-induced oxidative stress injury in myocardiocytes, whereas overexpression relieved it. In addition, the ERK pathway was positively regulated by TOPK signaling. In conclusion, our results indicate that TOPK might mediate a novel survival signal in myocardial I/R, and that its effect on anti-oxidative stress involves the ERK signaling pathway.

Abstract
Cardiac hypertrophy is a chronic complex disease that occurs in response to hemodynamic load and is accompanied by oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction. Mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K channels (mitoKATPs) have previously been shown to prevent oxidative cardiac damage under conditions of ischemia/reperfusion. However, the effect of these channels on cardiac hypertrophy has not been tested to date. In this study, we show that treatment of Swiss mice with isoproterenol (30 mg·kg·d) induces cardiac hypertrophy while significantly decreasing the levels of reduced protein thiols, glutathione, catalase, and superoxide dismutase activity, indicative of a condition of oxidative imbalance. Treatment with diazoxide (a mitoKATP opener, 5 mg·kg·d) normalized the levels of protein thiols and reduced glutathione, rescued superoxide dismutase activity, and significantly prevented cardiac hypertrophy. The protective effects of diazoxide were mitigated by the mitoKATP blockers 5-hydroxydecanoate (5 mg·kg·d) and glibenclamide (3 mg·kg·d), demonstrating that they were related to activation of the channel. Taken together, our results establish that mitoKATP activation promotes very robust prevention of cardiac hypertrophy and associated oxidative imbalance and suggest that these channels can be important drug targets for the pharmacological control of cardiac hypertrophy.

Abstract
The increase of reactive oxygen species in infracted heart significantly reduces the survival of donor mesenchymal stem cells, thereby attenuating the therapeutic efficacy for myocardial infarction. In our previous study, we demonstrated that lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) protects bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) against hypoxia and serum deprivation-induced apoptosis. However, whether LPA protects BMSCs from H2O2-induced apoptosis was not examined. In this study, we report that H2O2 induces rat BMSC apoptosis whereas LPA pre-treatment effectively protects BMSCs from H2O2-induced apoptosis. LPA protection of BMSC from the induced apoptosis is mediated mostly through LPA3 receptor. Furthermore, we found that membrane G protein Gi2 and Gi3 are involved in LPA-elicited anti-apoptotic effects through activation of ERK1/2- and PI3 K-pathways. Additionally, H2O2 increases levels of type II of light chain 3B (LC3B II), an autophagy marker, and H2O2-induced autophagy thus protected BMSCs from apoptosis. LPA further increases the expression of LC3B II in the presence of H2O2. In contrast, autophagy flux inhibitor bafilomycin A1 has no effect on LPA's protection of BMSC from H2O2-induced apoptosis. Taken together, our data suggest that LPA rescues H2O2-induced apoptosis mainly by interacting with Gi-coupled LPA3, resulting activation of the ERK1/2- and PI3 K/AKT-pathways and inhibition caspase-3 cleavage, and LPA protection of BMSCs against the apoptosis is independent of it induced autophagy.

Abstract
A substantial body of evidence indicates that pharmacological activation of mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channels (mKATP) in the heart is protective in conditions associated with ischemia/reperfusion injury. Several mechanisms have been postulated to be responsible for cardioprotection, including the modulation of mitochondrial respiratory function. The aim of the present study was to characterize the dose-dependent effects of novel synthetic benzopyran analogues, derived from a BMS-191095, a selective mKATP opener, on mitochondrial respiration and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in isolated rat heart mitochondria. Mitochondrial respiratory function was assessed by high-resolution respirometry, and H2O2 production was measured by the Amplex Red fluorescence assay. Four compounds, namely KL-1487, KL-1492, KL-1495, and KL-1507, applied in increasing concentrations (50, 75, 100, and 150 μmol/L, respectively) were investigated. When added in the last two concentrations, all compounds significantly increased State 2 and 4 respiratory rates, an effect that was not abolished by 5-hydroxydecanoate (5-HD, 100 μmol/L), the classic mKATP inhibitor. The highest concentration also elicited an important decrease of the oxidative phosphorylation in a K+ independent manner. Both concentrations of 100 and 150 μmol/L for KL-1487, KL-1492, and KL-1495, and the concentration of 150 μmol/L for KL-1507, respectively, mitigated the mitochondrial H2O2 release. In isolated rat heart mitochondria, the novel benzopyran analogues act as protonophoric uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation and decrease the generation of reactive oxygen species in a dose-dependent manner.

Abstract
The modern treatment of cardiac arrest is an increasingly complex medical procedure with a rapidly changing array of therapeutic approaches designed to restore life to victims of sudden death. The 2 primary goals of providing artificial circulation and defibrillation to halt ventricular fibrillation remain of paramount importance for saving lives. They have undergone significant improvements in technology and dissemination into the community subsequent to their establishment 60 years ago. The evolution of artificial circulation includes efforts to optimize manual cardiopulmonary resuscitation, external mechanical cardiopulmonary resuscitation devices designed to augment circulation, and may soon advance further into the rapid deployment of specially designed internal emergency cardiopulmonary bypass devices. The development of defibrillation technologies has progressed from bulky internal defibrillators paddles applied directly to the heart, to manually controlled external defibrillators, to automatic external defibrillators that can now be obtained over-the-counter for widespread use in the community or home. But the modern treatment of cardiac arrest now involves more than merely providing circulation and defibrillation. As suggested by a 3-phase model of treatment, newer approaches targeting patients who have had a more prolonged cardiac arrest include treatment of the metabolic phase of cardiac arrest with therapeutic hypothermia, agents to treat or prevent reperfusion injury, new strategies specifically focused on pulseless electric activity, which is the presenting rhythm in at least one third of cardiac arrests, and aggressive post resuscitation care. There are discoveries at the cellular and molecular level about ischemia and reperfusion pathobiology that may be translated into future new therapies. On the near horizon is the combination of advanced cardiopulmonary bypass plus a cocktail of multiple agents targeted at restoration of normal metabolism and prevention of reperfusion injury, as this holds the promise of restoring life to many patients for whom our current therapies fail.

Abstract
Translation of preclinical treatments for ischaemia-reperfusion injury into clinical therapies has been limited by a number of factors. This review will focus on a single mode of cardiac protection related to a membrane scaffolding protein, caveolin, which regulates protective signalling as well as myocyte ultrastructure in the setting of ischaemic stress. Factors that have limited the clinical translation of protection will be considered specifically in terms of signalling and structural defects. The potential of caveolin to overcome barriers to protection with the ultimate hope of clinical translation will be discussed.

Abstract
Ischemic heart disease (IHD) remains the leading cause of death and disability worldwide. For patients presenting with an acute myocardial infarction, the most effective treatment for limiting myocardial infarct (MI) size is timely reperfusion. However, in addition to the injury incurred during acute myocardial ischemia, the process of reperfusion can itself induce myocardial injury and cardiomyocyte death, termed 'myocardial reperfusion injury', the combination of which can be referred to as acute ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). Crucially, there is currently no effective therapy for preventing this form of injury, and novel cardioprotective therapies are therefore required to protect the heart against acute IRI in order to limit MI size and preserve cardiac function. The opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) in the first few minutes of reperfusion is known to be a critical determinant of IRI, contributing up to 50% of the final MI size. Importantly, preventing its opening at this time using MPTP inhibitors, such as cyclosporin-A, has been reported in experimental and clinical studies to reduce MI size and preserve cardiac function. However, more specific and novel MPTP inhibitors are required to translate MPTP inhibition as a cardioprotective strategy into clinical practice. In this article, we review the role of the MPTP as a mediator of acute myocardial IRI and as a therapeutic target for cardioprotection. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled "Mitochondria: From Basic Mitochondrial Biology to Cardiovascular Disease".

Abstract
A great bulk of evidence supports the concept that regular exercise training can reduce the incidence of coronary events and increase survival chances after myocardial infarction. These exercise-induced beneficial effects on the myocardium are reached by means of the reduction of several risk factors relating to cardiovascular disease, such as high cholesterol, hypertension, obesity etc. Furthermore, it has been demonstrated that exercise can reproduce the "ischemic preconditioning" (IP), which refers to the capacity of short periods of ischemia to render the myocardium more resistant to subsequent ischemic insult and to limit infarct size during prolonged ischemia. However, IP is a complex phenomenon which, along with infarct size reduction, can also provide protection against arrhythmia and myocardial stunning due to ischemia-reperfusion. Several clues demonstrate that preconditioning may be directly induced by exercise, thus inducing a protective phenotype at the heart level without the necessity of causing ischemia. Exercise appears to act as a physiological stress that induces beneficial myocardial adaptive responses at cellular level. The purpose of the present paper is to review the latest data on the role played by exercise in triggering myocardial preconditioning.

Abstract
As mediators of the first enzymatic step in glucose metabolism, hexokinases (HKs) orchestrate a variety of catabolic and anabolic uses of glucose, regulate antioxidant power by generating NADPH for glutathione reduction, and modulate cell death processes by directly interacting with the voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC), a regulatory component of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP). Here we summarize the current state-of-knowledge about HKs and their role in protecting the heart from ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, reviewing: 1) the properties of different HK isoforms and how their function is regulated by their subcellular localization; 2) how HKs modulate glucose metabolism and energy production during I/R; 3) the molecular mechanisms by which HKs influence mPTP opening and cellular injury during I/R; and 4) how different metabolic and HK profiles correlate with susceptibility to I/R injury and cardioprotective efficacy in cancer cells, neonatal hearts, and normal, hypertrophied and failing adult hearts, and how these difference may guide novel therapeutic strategies to limit I/R injury in the heart.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress are paradoxically implicated in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and cardioprotection. However, the precise interpretation for the dual roles of ROS and its relationship with the ER stress during I/R remain elusive. Here we investigated the concentration-dependent effects of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) preconditioning (PC) and postconditioning (PoC) on the ER stress and prosurvival reperfusion injury salvage kinase (RISK) activation using an ex vivo rat myocardial I/R model. The effects of H2O2 PC and PoC showed three phases. At a low level (1 μM), H2O2 exacerbated I/R-induced left ventricular (LV) contractile dysfunction and ER stress, as indicated by enhanced phosphorylation of protein kinase-like ER kinase and expressions of glucose-regulated protein 78, X-box-binding protein 1 splicing variant, TNF receptor-associated factor 2, activating transcription factor-6 cleaved 50 kDa fragment, and caspase-12 cleavage, but the I/R-induced RISK activation including protein kinase B (PKB/Akt) and protein kinase Cɛ (PKCɛ) remained unchanged. Consistently, the postischemic LV performance in 1 μM H2O2 PC and PoC groups was improved by inhibiting ER stress with 4-phenyl butyric acid but not affected by the ER stress inducer, tunicamycin. At a moderate level (10-100 μM), H2O2 significantly improved postischemic LV performance and enhanced RISK activation, but it did no further alter the ER stress. The cardioprotection but not ER stress was abrogated with Akt or PKCɛ inhibitor wortmannin or ɛV1-2. At a high level (1 mM), H2O2 markedly aggravated the reperfusion injury and the oxidative stress but did not further enhance the RISK activation. In addition, 1 or 20 μM of H2O2 PC did not alter cardioprotective effects of ischemic PC in postischemic contractile performance and protein oxidation. Our data suggest that the differential effects of H2O2 are derived from a concentration-dependent wrestling between its detrimental stress and protective signaling.

Abstract
PURPOSE Electron paramagnetic resonance imaging has surfaced as a promising noninvasive imaging modality that is capable of imaging tissue oxygenation. Due to extremely short spin-spin relaxation times, electron paramagnetic resonance imaging benefits from single-point imaging and inherently suffers from limited spatial and temporal resolution, preventing localization of small hypoxic tissues and differentiation of hypoxia dynamics, making accelerated imaging a crucial issue. METHODS In this study, methods for accelerated single-point imaging were developed by combining a bilateral k-space extrapolation technique with model-based reconstruction that benefits from dense sampling in the parameter domain (measurement of the T2 (*) decay of a free induction delay). In bilateral kspace extrapolation, more k-space samples are obtained in a sparsely sampled region by bilaterally extrapolating data from temporally neighboring k-spaces. To improve the accuracy of T2 (*) estimation, a principal component analysis-based method was implemented. RESULTS In a computer simulation and a phantom experiment, the proposed methods showed its capability for reliable T2 (*) estimation with high acceleration (8-fold, 15-fold, and 30-fold accelerations for 61×61×61, 95×95×95, and 127×127×127 matrix, respectively). CONCLUSION By applying bilateral k-space extrapolation and model-based reconstruction, improved scan times with higher spatial resolution can be achieved in the current single-point electron paramagnetic resonance imaging modality.

Abstract
Hypolipidemic compound pirinixic acid (WY-14643, WY) is known to exert pleiotropic (other than primary) effects, such as activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR-α), transcription factors regulating different cardiac functions. Their role in ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury and cardioprotection is less clear, although protective effects of PPAR agonists have been documented. This study was designed to explore the effects of WY on the I/R injury in the rat heart and potential mechanisms involved, including mitochondrial KATP channels (mitoKATP) opening and production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Langendorff-perfused hearts of rats intragastrally treated with WY (3 mg/kg/day) for 5 days and of control animals were subjected to 30-min global ischemia and 2-h reperfusion with or without 15-min perfusion with mitoKATP blocker 5-hydroxydecanoate (5-HD) prior to I/R. Evaluation of the infarct size (IS, TTC staining) served as the main end-point of protection. Lipid peroxidation (a marker of ROS production) was determined by measurement of myocardial concentration of conjugated dienes (CD), whereas protein expression of endothelial NO synthase was analysed by Western blotting. A 2-fold increase in the cardiac protein levels of eNOS after treatment with WY was accompanied by lower post-I/R levels of CD compared with those in the hearts of untreated controls, although WY itself enhanced ROS generation prior to ischemia. IS was reduced by 47 % in the hearts of WY-treated rats (P<0.05), and this effect was reversed by 5-HD. Results suggest that PPAR-α activation may confer protection against lethal I/R injury in the rat heart that involves up-regulation of eNOS, mitoKATP opening and reduced oxidative stress during I/R.

Abstract
Background Ischemic preconditioning has been proposed to involve changes in mitochondrial H+ and K+ fluxes, in particular through activation of uncoupling proteins and ATP-sensitive K+ channels (MitoKATP). The objectives of the present study were to explore how increased H+ and K+ fluxes influence heart mitochondrial physiology with regard to production and scavenging of reactive oxygen species (ROS), volume changes and resistance to calcium-induced mitochondrial permeability transition (mPT). Results Isolated rat heart mitochondria were exposed to a wide concentration range of the protonophore CCCP or the potassium ionophore valinomycin to induce increased H+ and K+ conductance, respectively. Simultaneous monitoring of mitochondrial respiration and calcium retention capacity (CRC) demonstrated that the relative increase in respiration caused by valinomycin or CCCP correlated with a decrease in CRC, and that no level of respiratory uncoupling was associated with enhanced resistance to mPT. Mitochondria suspended in hyperosmolar buffer demonstrated a dose-dependent reduction in CRC with increasing osmolarity. However, mitochondria in hypoosmolar buffer to increase matrix volume did not display increased CRC. ROS generation was reduced by both K+- and H+-mediated respiratory uncoupling. The ability of heart mitochondria to detoxify H2O2 was substantially greater than the production rate. The H2O2 detoxification was dependent on respiratory substrates and was dramatically decreased following calcium-induced mPT, but was unaffected by uncoupling via increased K+ and H+ conductance. Conclusion It is concluded that respiratory uncoupling is not directly beneficial to rat heart mitochondrial resistance to calcium overload irrespective of whether H+ or K+ conductance is increased. The negative effects of respiratory uncoupling thus probably outweigh the reduction in ROS generation and a potential positive effect by increased matrix volume, resulting in a net sensitization of heart mitochondria to mPT activation.

Abstract
It has been well demonstrated that hypoxic preconditioning (HPC) can attenuate hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-induced oxidant stress and elicit delayed cardioprotection by upregulating the expression of multiple antioxidative enzymes such as heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) and so on. However, the underlying mechanisms of HPC-induced upregulation of antioxidative enzymes are not fully understood. Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is an essential transcription factor that regulates expression of several antioxidant genes via binding to the antioxidant response element (ARE) and plays a crucial role in cellular defence against oxidative stress. Here, we wondered whether activation of the Nrf2-ARE pathway is responsible for the induction of antioxidative enzymes by HPC and contributes to the delayed cardioprotection of HPC. Cellular model of HPC from rat heart-derived H9c2 cells was induced 24 h prior to H/R. The results showed that HPC efficiently attenuated H/R-induced viability loss and lactate dehydrogenase leakage. In addition, HPC increased nuclear translocation and ARE binding of Nrf2 during the late phase, upregulated the expression of antioxidative enzymes (HO-1 and MnSOD), inhibited H/R-induced oxidant stress. However, when Nrf2 was specifically knocked down by siRNA, the induction of antioxidative enzymes by HPC was completely abolished and, as a result, the inhibitory effect of HPC on H/R-induced oxidant stress was reversed, and the delayed cardioprotection induced by HPC was also abolished. These results suggest that HPC upregulates antioxidative enzymes through activating the Nrf2-ARE pathway and confers delayed cardioprotection against H/R-induced oxidative stress.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Liver ischemic preconditioning (IPC), pre-exposure of the liver to transient ischemia, has been applied as a useful surgical method to prevent liver ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) injury. Although activation of protein kinase C (PKC), especially novel PKCs, has been known as central signaling responsible for the liver protection of IPC, determination of the involved isozyme in strong protection afforded by IPC has not been elucidated. MATERIALS AND METHODS Rats were subjected to 90 min of partial liver ischemia followed by 3, 6, and 24 h of reperfusion. IPC was induced by 10 min of ischemia after 10 min of reperfusion before sustained ischemia. Rottlerin, a PKC-δ selective inhibitor; PKC-εV1-2 peptide, a selective PKC-ε inhibitor; and 3,7-dimethyl-1-[2-propargyl] xanthine, an adenosine A2 receptor antagonist, were intravenously injected before IPC. N-acetyl-L-cysteine, a strong antioxidant, and Nω-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester, a nonselective nitric oxide synthase inhibitor, were injected intraperitoneally before IPC. RESULTS IPC resulted in strong protection against liver I/R injury as evidenced by biochemical and histologic analyses. Inhibition of PKC-δ strongly attenuated the IPC-induced liver protection, whereas PKC-ε inhibition did not exert any effect on IPC-induced protection. Although inhibition of reactive oxygen species, adenosine, and nitric oxide attenuated the beneficial effects of IPC, inhibition of adenosine only attenuated PKC-δ and -ε translocation. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that IPC protects against I/R-induced hepatic injury through activation of PKC-δ.

Abstract
Previous studies suggest baicalein, in addition to its antioxidant effects, protects against hypoxia/reoxygenation injury via its pro-oxidant properties. We hypothesize that a brief period of baicalein treatment prior to ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) may trigger preconditioning protection via a mitochondrial pro-oxidant mechanism. Using an established chick cardiomyocyte model of I/R, cells were preconditioned with baicalein (10 μM) for 10 min followed by 10-min wash prior to I/R. Intracellular oxidants were measured using 2′, 7′-dichlorofluorescin diacetate (DCFH/DA). Cell viability was assessed by propidium iodide and apoptosis determined by DNA fragmentation. Baicalein induced a transient but significant increase of DCF fluorescence within the 10-min preconditioning period, and led to significant reduction of cell death (38.9 ± 1.8% vs. 58.7 ± 1.2% in I/R control, n = 6, p < 0.001) and DNA fragmentation after I/R. Cotreatment with N-acetylcysteine (500 μM), mitochondrial complex III electron transport chain inhibitor myxothiazol (1 μM), mitochondrial KATP channel blocker 5-hydroxydecanoate-Na (5-HD, 500 μM) or anion channel inhibitor 4′, 4′-diisothiocyanato-stilbene-2, 2′-disulfonic acid (DIDS, 200 μM) resulted in significant abrogation of oxidant increase during induction as well as the protection conferred by baicalein preconditioning. These results suggest that baicalein preconditioning exhibits significant anti-apoptotic protection against cardiomyocyte I/R injury by mitochondrial oxidant signaling, which was in part mediated by mitochondrial KATP channel and anion channel opening.

Abstract
Reperfusion therapy is the indispensable treatment of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and must be applied as soon as possible to attenuate the ischemic insult. However, reperfusion is responsible for additional myocardial damage likely involving opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP). A great part of reperfusion injury occurs during the first minute of reperfusion. The prolonged opening of mPTP is considered one of the endpoints of the cascade to myocardial damage, causing loss of cardiomyocyte function and viability. Opening of mPTP and the consequent oxidative stress due to reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) are considered among the major mechanisms of mitochondrial and myocardial dysfunction. Kinases and mitochondrial components constitute an intricate network of signaling molecules and mitochondrial proteins, which interact in response to stressors. Cardioprotective pathways are activated by stimuli such as preconditioning and postconditioning (PostC), obtained with brief intermittent ischemia or with pharmacological agents, which drastically reduce the lethal ischemia/reperfusion injury. The protective pathways converging on mitochondria may preserve their function. Protection involves kinases, adenosine triphosphate-dependent potassium channels, ROS signaling, and the mPTP modulation. Some clinical studies using ischemic PostC during angioplasty support its protective effects, and an interesting alternative is pharmacological PostC. In fact, the mPTP desensitizer, cyclosporine A, has been shown to induce appreciable protections in AMI patients. Several factors and comorbidities that might interfere with cardioprotective signaling are considered. Hence, treatments adapted to the characteristics of the patient (i.e., phenotype oriented) might be feasible in the future.

Abstract
Cardiovascular (CV) disease is the single most significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The emerging global impact of CV disease means that the goals of early diagnosis and a wider range of treatment options are now increasingly pertinent. As such, there is a greater need to understand the molecular mechanisms involved and potential targets for intervention. Mitochondrial function is important for physiological maintenance of the cell, and when this function is altered, the cell can begin to suffer. Given the broad range and significant impacts of the cellular processes regulated by the mitochondria, it becomes important to understand the roles of the proteins associated with this organelle. Proteomic investigations of the mitochondria are hampered by the intrinsic properties of the organelle, including hydrophobic mitochondrial membranes; high proportion of basic proteins (pI greater than 8.0); and the relative dynamic range issues of the mitochondria. For these reasons, many proteomic studies investigate the mitochondria as a discrete subproteome. Once this has been achieved, the alterations that result in functional changes with CV disease can be observed. Those alterations that lead to changes in mitochondrial function, signaling and morphology, which have significant implications for the cardiomyocyte in the development of CV disease, are discussed.

Abstract
Myocardial preconditioning is a powerful phenomenon that can attenuate ischemia/reperfusion-induced oxidant stress and elicit delayed cardioprotection. Its mechanisms involve activation of intracellular signaling pathways and up-regulation of the protective antioxidant proteins. DJ-1 protein, as a multifunctional intracellular protein, plays an important role in attenuating oxidant stress and promoting cell survival. In the present study, we investigated whether DJ-1 is up-regulated during the late phase of hypoxic preconditioning (HP) and the up-regulation of DJ-1 is mediated by extracellular-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) signaling pathway. Rat heart-derived H9c2 cells were exposed to HP. Twenty-four hours later cells were subjected to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) and then cell viability, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), ERK1/2 phosphorylation, and DJ-1 protein were measured appropriately. The results showed that HP efficiently attenuated H/R-induced viability loss and LDH leakage. In addition, HP promoted ERK1/2 activation, up-regulated DJ-1 protein expression, inhibited H/R induced the elevation of ROS. However, when ERK1/2 phosphorylation was specifically inhibited by U0126, the increase in DJ-1 expression occurring during HP was almost completely abolished and, as a result, the delayed cardioprotection induced by HP was abolished, and the inhibitory effect of HP on H/R-induced oxidant stress was also reversed. Furthermore, knocking down DJ-1 by siRNA attenuated the delayed cardioprotection induced by HP. Our data indicate that HP can up-regulate DJ-1 protein expression through the ERK1/2-dependent signaling pathway. Importantly, DJ-1 might be involved in the delayed cardioprotective effect of HP against H/R injury.

The effects of ginsenoside Rb1 on JNK in oxidative injury in cardiomyocytes. Arch Pharm Res 2012; 35:1259-67.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) can induce oxidative injury via iron interactions (i.e. Fenton chemistry and hydroxyl radical formation). Our prior work suggested that American ginseng berry extract and ginsenoside Re were highly cardioprotective against oxidant stress. To extend this study, we evaluated the protective effect of protopanaxadiol-type ginsenoside Rb1 (gRb1) on H(2)O(2)-induced oxidative injury in cardiomyocytes and explored the ROS-mediated intracellular signaling mechanism. Cultured embryonic chick cardiomyocytes (4-5 day) were used. Cell death was assessed by propidium iodide and lactate dehydrogenase release. Pretreatment with gRb1 (0.01, 0.1, or 1 μM) for 2 h and concurrent treatment with H(2)O(2) (0.5 mM) for 2 h resulted in a dose-dependent reduction of cell death, 36.6 ± 2.9% (n = 12, p < 0.05), 30.5 ± 5.1% (n = 12, p < 0.05) and 28.6 ± 3.1% (n = 12, p < 0.01) respectively, compared to H(2)O(2)-exposed cells (48.2 ± 3.3%, n = 12). This cardioprotective effect of gRb1 was associated with attenuated intracellular ROS generation as measured by 6-carboxy-2', 7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate, preserved the mitochondrial membrane potential as determined using JC-1. In the ESR study, gRb1 exhibited the scavenging DPPH and hydroxyl radical activities. Furthermore, our data showed the increased JNK phosphorylation (p-JNK) in H(2)O(2)-exposed cells was suppressed by the pretreatment with gRb 1 (1 μM) (p < 0.01). Co-treatment of gRb1 with a specific inhibitor of JNK SP600125 (10 μM) further reduced the p-JNK and enhanced the cell survival after H(2)O(2) exposure. Collectively, our results suggest that gRb1 conferred cardioprotection that was mediated via attenuating ROS and suppressing ROS-induced JNK activation.

Abstract
Persistent oxidative stress is one of the major causes of most lifestyle-related diseases, cancer and the aging process. Acute oxidative stress directly causes serious damage to tissues. Despite the clinical importance of oxidative damage, antioxidants have been of limited therapeutic success. We have proposed that molecular hydrogen (H2) has potential as a “novel” antioxidant in preventive and therapeutic applications [Ohsawa et al., Nat Med. 2007: 13; 688-94]. H2 has a number of advantages as a potential antioxidant: H2 rapidly diffuses into tissues and cells, and it is mild enough neither to disturb metabolic redox reactions nor to affect reactive oxygen species (ROS) that function in cell signaling, thereby, there should be little adverse effects of consuming H2. There are several methods to ingest or consume H2, including inhaling hydrogen gas, drinking H2-dissolved water (hydrogen water), taking a hydrogen bath, injecting H2-dissolved saline (hydrogen saline), dropping hydrogen saline onto the eye, and increasing the production of intestinal H2 by bacteria. Since the publication of the first H2 paper in Nature Medicine in 2007, the biological effects of H2 have been confirmed by the publication of more than 38 diseases, physiological states and clinical tests in leading biological/medical journals, and several groups have started clinical examinations. Moreover, H2 shows not only effects against oxidative stress, but also various anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic effects. H2 regulates various gene expressions and protein-phosphorylations, though the molecular mechanisms underlying the marked effects of very small amounts of H2 remain elusive.

Abstract
Inhibition of oxidative stress has been reported to be involved in the cardioprotective effects of hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) during ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). However, the mechanism whereby H(2)S regulates the level of cardiac reactive oxygen species (ROS) during I/R remains unclear. Therefore, we investigated the effects of H(2)S on pathways that generate and scavenge ROS. Our results show that pretreating rat neonatal cardiomyocytes with NaHS, a H(2)S donor, reduced the levels of ROS during the hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) condition. We found that H(2)S inhibited mitochondrial complex IV activity and increased the activities of superoxide dismutases (SODs), including Mn-SOD and CuZn-SOD. Further studies indicated that H(2)S up-regulated the expression of Mn-SOD but not CuZn-SOD. Using a cell-free system, we showed that H(2)S activates CuZn-SOD. An isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) analysis indicated that H(2)S directly interacts with CuZn-SOD. Taken together, H(2)S inhibits mitochondrial complex IV and activates SOD to decrease the levels of ROS in cardiomyocytes during I/R.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The present study was carried out to determine whether inhalation of hydrogen (H(2)) gas protects myocardium against ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in swine. DESIGN In anesthetized open-chest swine, myocardial stunning was produced by 12-minute occlusion of left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) followed by 90-minute reperfusion in the first study. Group A inhaled 100% oxygen, and group B inhaled 2% H(2) plus 98% oxygen during ischemia and reperfusion. In the second study, myocardial infarction was produced by 40-minute occlusion of LAD followed by 120-minute reperfusion. Group C inhaled 100% oxygen during ischemia and reperfusion. Group D inhaled 2% H(2) plus 98% oxygen. Group E inhaled 4% H(2) plus 96% oxygen. RESULTS The change of segment shortening (%SS) from baseline at 90 minutes after reperfusion in group B was 74 ± 13 (mean ± SD) %, which was significantly higher than that in group A (48 ± 15%). Myocardial infarct size in group E (32 ± 10%), but not in group D (40 ± 9%) was smaller than that in group C (46 ± 6%). CONCLUSIONS Inhalation of 2% H(2) gas improves myocardial stunning, and inhalation of 4% but not 2% H(2) gas reduces myocardial infarct size in swine.

Abstract
Mitochondria represent approximately one-third of the mass of the heart and play a critical role in maintaining cellular function-however, they are also a potent source of free radicals and pro-apoptotic factors. As such, maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis is essential to cell survival. As the dominant source of ATP, continuous quality control is mandatory to ensure their ongoing optimal function. Mitochondrial quality control is accomplished by the dynamic interplay of fusion, fission, autophagy, and mitochondrial biogenesis. This review examines these processes in the heart and considers their role in the context of ischemia-reperfusion injury. Interventions that modulate mitochondrial turnover, including pharmacologic agents, exercise, and caloric restriction are discussed as a means to improve mitochondrial quality control, ameliorate cardiovascular dysfunction, and enhance longevity.
