Abstract
Chronic alcohol abuse causes brain damage and has been associated with an increased risk of Alzheimer's disease. The toxic metabolite of alcohol, acetaldehyde, which is converted to acetate by aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2), has been shown to induce excessive mitochondrial fragmentation and dysfunction leading to neurotoxicity. However, it is still unclear how alcohol affects mitochondrial function in ALDH2-deficient cells. The present study investigated the association between abnormal mitochondrial dynamics, mitophagy and cytotoxicity in ALDH2-deficient N2a cells treated with ethanol. It was found that ethanol induced dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1)-mediated mitochondrial fragmentation and impaired mitochondrial function, causing excessive mitophagy and cytotoxicity in ALDH2-deficient N2a cells while inducing Ca2+ influx and activating Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII). Inhibition of Ca2+ overload or CaMKII activation prevented Drp1 phosphorylation and ameliorated ethanol-induced mitophagy and cytotoxicity, indicating that Ca2+-dependent CaMKII activation was critical for mediating Drp1-dependent excessive mitochondrial fission and mitophagy in ALDH2-deficient N2a cells. The results of the present study suggested that prevention of intracellular Ca2+ overload might be beneficial for preventing neurotoxicity associated with alcohol abuse in individuals with defective ALDH2.

Abstract
Background : Muscle wasting is a serious complication in heart failure patients, and oxidative stress is involved in the pathogenesis of muscle wasting. Oxidative stress leads to the formation of toxic lipid peroxidation products, such as 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) and acrolein, which causemuscle wasting. In tissues, these toxic aldehydes are metabolically removed by enzymes such asaldo keto reductases and endogenous nucleophiles, such as glutathione and carnosine. Whether these metabolic pathways could be affected in skeletal muscle during heart failure has never been studied. Methods : Male wild-type C57BL/6J mice were subjected to a pressure overload model of hypertrophy by transaortic constriction (TAC) surgery, and echocardiography was performed after 14 weeks. Different skeletal muscle beds were weighed and analyzed for atrophic and inflammatory markers, Atrogin1 and TRIM63, TNF-α and IL-6 , respectively, by RT‒PCR. Levels of acrolein and HNE-protein adducts, aldehyde-removing enzymes, aldose reductase (AKR1B1) and aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) were measured by Western blotting, and histidyl dipeptides and histidyl dipeptide aldehyde conjugates were analyzed by LC/MS-MS in the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles of sham- and TAC-operated mice. Furthermore, histidyl dipeptide synthesizing enzyme carnosine synthase (CARNS) and amino acid transporters (PEPT2 and TAUT)wasmeasured in the gastrocnemius muscles of the sham and TAC-operated mice. Results : TAC-induced heart failure decreases body weight and gastrocnemius and soleus muscle weights. The expression of the atrophic and inflammatory markers Atrogin1 and TNF-α, respectively, wasincreased (~1.5-2-fold), and the formation of HNE and acrolein-protein adducts was increased in the gastrocnemius muscle of TAC-operated mice. The expression of AKR1B1 remained unchanged, whereas ALDH2 was decreased, in the gastrocnemius muscle of TAC mice. Similarly, in the atrophic gastrocnemius muscle, levels of total histidyl dipeptides (carnosine and anserine) and, in particular,carnosine were decreased. Depletion of histidyl dipeptides diminished the aldehyde removal capacity of the atrophic gastrocnemius muscle. Furthermore, the expression of CARNS and TAUT wasdecreased in the atrophic gastrocnemius muscle. Conclusions : Collectively, these results show that metabolic pathways involved in the removal of lipid peroxidation products and synthesis of histidyl dipeptides are diminished in atrophic skeletal muscle during heart failure, which could contribute to muscle atrophy.

Abstract
AimAfter successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), most survivors will develop acute kidney injury and intestinal barrier dysfunction, both of which contribute to the poor outcomes of cardiac arrest (CA) victims. Recently, the aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) agonist, Alda-1 was shown to effectively alleviate regional ischemia/reperfusion injury of various organs. In the present study, we investigated the effects of Alda-1 treatment on renal and intestinal injuries after CA and resuscitation in pigs.MethodsTwenty-four male domestic pigs were randomly divided into one of the three groups: sham (n = 6), CPR (n = 10), or CPR+Alda-1 (n = 8). CA was induced and untreated for 8 min, and then CPR was performed for 8 min in the CPR and CPR+Alda-1 groups. At 5 min after resuscitation, a dose of 0.88 mg/kg of Alda-1 was intravenously administered in the CPR+Alda-1 group. The biomarkers of renal and intestinal injuries after resuscitation were regularly measured for a total of 24 h. Subsequently, the animals were euthanized, and then renal and intestinal tissues were obtained for the measurements of ALDH2 activity and expression, and cell apoptosis and ferroptosis.ResultsFive of the 10 animals in the CPR group and six of the eight animals in the CPR+Alda-1 group were successfully resuscitated. After resuscitation, the levels of biomarkers of renal and intestinal injuries were significantly increased in all animals experiencing CA and resuscitation compared with the sham group; however, Alda-1 treatment significantly alleviated renal and intestinal injuries compared to the CPR group. Post-resuscitation ALDH2 activity was significantly decreased and its expression was markedly reduced in the kidney and intestine in those resuscitated animals compared with the sham group; nevertheless, both of them were significantly greater in those animals receiving Alda-1 treatment compared to the CPR group. In addition, renal, intestinal apoptosis and ferroptosis after resuscitation were observed in the CPR and CPR+Alda-1 groups, in which both of them were significantly milder in the CPR+Alda1 group than in the CPR group.ConclusionsThe activation of ALDH2 by Alda-1 treatment significantly alleviated post-resuscitation renal and intestinal injuries through the inhibition of cell apoptosis and ferroptosis in a pig model of CA and resuscitation.

Abstract
Cardiac arrhythmia is a common cardiovascular disease that leads to considerable economic burdens and significant global public health challenges. Despite the remarkable progress made in recent decades, antiarrhythmic therapy remains suboptimal. Aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2), a critical detoxifying enzyme, catalyzes toxic aldehydes and protects individuals from damages caused by oxidative stress. Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that ALDH2 activation has potential antiarrhythmic benefits. The correlation between ALDH2 deficiency and arrhythmogenesis has been widely recognized. In this review, we summarize recent researches on the potential roles of ALDH2 activation and antiarrhythmic protection, as well as the role played by the ALDH2*2 polymorphism (rs671) in promoting arrhythmic risk. Additionally, we discuss important new findings illustrating the use of ALDH2 activators, which may prove to be promising antiarrhythmic therapy agents.

Abstract
Mitochondrial damage is a critical driver in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury and can be alleviated via the mitochondrial transplantation. The efficiency of mitochondrial transplantation is determined by mitochondrial vitality. Because aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) has a key role in regulating mitochondrial homeostasis, we aimed to investigate its potential therapeutic effects on mitochondrial transplantation via the use of ALDH2 activator, Alda-1. Our present study demonstrated that time-dependent internalization of exogenous mitochondria by cardiomyocytes along with ATP production were significantly increased in response to mitochondrial transplantation. Furthermore, Alda-1 treatment remarkably promoted the oxygen consumption rate and baseline mechanical function of cardiomyocytes caused by mitochondrial transplantation. Mitochondrial transplantation inhibited cardiomyocyte apoptosis induced by the hypoxia-reoxygenation exposure, independent of Alda-1 treatment. However, promotion of the mechanical function of cardiomyocytes exposed to hypoxia-reoxygenation treatment was only observed after mitochondrial Alda-1 treatment and transplantation. By using a myocardial I/R mouse model, our results revealed that transplantation of Alda-1-treated mitochondria into mouse myocardial tissues limited the infarction size after I/R injury, which was at least in part due to increased mitochondrial potential-mediated fusion. In conclusion, ALDH2 activation in mitochondrial transplantation shows great potential for the treatment of myocardial I/R injury.

Abstract
In the heart, Ca2+ participates in electrical activity and myocardial contraction, which is closely related to the generation of action potential and excitation contraction coupling (ECC) and plays an important role in various signal cascades and regulates different physiological processes. In the Ca2+ related physiological activities, CaMKII is a key downstream regulator, involving autophosphorylation and post-translational modification, and plays an important role in the excitation contraction coupling and relaxation events of cardiomyocytes. This paper reviews the relationship between CaMKII and various substances in the pathological process of myocardial apoptosis and necrosis, myocardial hypertrophy and arrhythmia, and what roles it plays in the development of disease in complex networks. This paper also introduces the drugs targeting at CaMKII to treat heart disease.

Abstract
Heart disease is the leading cause of death in Asian Americans. Importantly, people of East Asian descent are more likely to carry a loss-of-function point mutation in aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2), ALDH2*2, which reduces ALDH2 enzymatic activity by at least 40% relative to wild type ALDH2. Given the role of ALDH2 in removing toxic aldehydes from the cell, ALDH2 is intimately involved in the cardioprotective mechanisms of ischemic preconditioning and the pathophysiology of ischemia reperfusion injury. The ALDH2*2 variant is associated with an increased incidence of coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, and stroke. Furthermore, this variant is associated with insensitivity to nitroglycerin, which is commonly prescribed in patients with cardiovascular disease. In this review, we discuss the genetic susceptibility and pathophysiology associated with the ALDH2*2 variant in regards to cardiovascular disease. We also present the considerations for the management of heart disease and stroke specific to East Asians carrying the ALDH2*2 genetic variant.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Cardiac arrest etiology may be an important source of between-patient heterogeneity, but the impact of etiology on organ injury is unknown. We tested the hypothesis that asphyxial cardiac arrest results in greater neurologic injury than cardiac etiology cardiac arrest (ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest), whereas ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest results in greater cardiovascular dysfunction after return of spontaneous circulation. DESIGN Prospective observational human and randomized animal study. SETTING University laboratory and ICUs. PATIENTS Five-hundred forty-three cardiac arrest patients admitted to ICU. SUBJECTS Seventy-five male Sprague-Dawley rats. INTERVENTIONS We examined neurologic and cardiovascular injury in Isoflurane-anesthetized rat cardiac arrest models matched by ischemic time. Hemodynamic and neurologic outcomes were assessed after 5 minutes no flow asphyxial cardiac arrest or ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest. Comparison was made to injury patterns observed after human asphyxial cardiac arrest or ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS In rats, cardiac output (20 ± 10 vs 45 ± 9 mL/min) and pH were lower and lactate higher (9.5 ± 1.0 vs 6.4 ± 1.3 mmol/L) after return of spontaneous circulation from ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest versus asphyxial cardiac arrest (all p < 0.01). Asphyxial cardiac arrest resulted in greater early neurologic deficits, 7-day neuronal loss, and reduced freezing time (memory) after conditioned fear (all p < 0.05). Brain antioxidant reserves were more depleted following asphyxial cardiac arrest. In adjusted analyses, human ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest was associated with greater cardiovascular injury based on peak troponin (7.8 ng/mL [0.8-57 ng/mL] vs 0.3 ng/mL [0.0-1.5 ng/mL]) and ejection fraction by echocardiography (20% vs 55%; all p < 0.0001), whereas asphyxial cardiac arrest was associated with worse early neurologic injury and poor functional outcome at hospital discharge (n = 46 [18%] vs 102 [44%]; p < 0.0001). Most ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest deaths (54%) were the result of cardiovascular instability, whereas most asphyxial cardiac arrest deaths (75%) resulted from neurologic injury (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS In transcending rat and human studies, we find a consistent phenotype of heart and brain injury after cardiac arrest based on etiology: ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest produces worse cardiovascular dysfunction, whereas asphyxial cardiac arrest produces worsened neurologic injury associated with greater oxidative stress.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is a structural or functional cardiac abnormal syndrome characterized with series of symptoms and signs such as breathlessness, fatigue, pulmonary crackles, and peripheral edema. Being a terminal phase of most myocardial lesions, HF has become a leading cause of mobility and mortality worldwide, associated with heavy clinical burden and economic costs affecting over 23 million people [14]. There is an increase to 5.5% with systolic dysfunction and an increase to 36.0% with diastolic dysfunction in people 60 years or older [85]. The costs accompanied with heart failure stand 2-3% of the total healthcare system expenditure in high-income countries and are expected to increase >2-fold in the next 2 decades [34].

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We tested the hypothesis that systemic administration of an A2AR agonist will reduce multiorgan IRI in a porcine model of ECPR. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA Advances in ECPR have decreased mortality after cardiac arrest; however, subsequent IRI contributes to late multisystem organ failure. Attenuation of IRI has been reported with the use of an A2AR agonist. METHODS Adult swine underwent 20 minutes of circulatory arrest, induced by ventricular fibrillation, followed by 6 hours of reperfusion with ECPR. Animals were randomized to vehicle control, low-dose A2AR agonist, or high-dose A2AR agonist. A perfusion specialist using a goal-directed resuscitation protocol managed all the animals during the reperfusion period. Hourly blood, urine, and tissue samples were collected. Biochemical and microarray analyses were performed to identify differential inflammatory markers and gene expression between groups. RESULTS Both the treatment groups demonstrated significantly higher percent reduction from peak lactate after reperfusion compared with vehicle controls. Control animals required significantly more fluid, epinephrine, and higher final pump flow while having lower urine output than both the treatment groups. The treatment groups had lower urine NGAL, an early marker of kidney injury (P = 0.01), lower plasma aspartate aminotransferase, and reduced rate of troponin rise (P = 0.01). Pro-inflammatory cytokines were lower while anti-inflammatory cytokines were significantly higher in the treatment groups. CONCLUSIONS Using a novel and clinically relevant porcine model of circulatory arrest and ECPR, we demonstrated that a selective A2AR agonist significantly attenuated systemic IRI and warrants clinical investigation.

Abstract
Ethanol can acutely and chronically alter cardiomyocyte and whole-organ function in the heart. Importantly, ethanol acutely and chronically predisposes to arrhythmias, while chronic abuse can induce heart failure. However, the molecular mechanisms of ethanol toxicity in the heart are incompletely understood. In this review, we summarize the current mechanistic knowledge on cardiac ethanol toxicity, with a focus on druggable pathways. Ethanol effects on excitation-contraction coupling, oxidative stress, apoptosis, and cardiac metabolism, as well as effects of ethanol metabolites will be discussed. Important recent findings have been gained by investigation of acute ethanol effects. These include a renewed focus on reactive oxygen species (ROS) and induction of SR Ca2+ leak by CaMKII-mediated pathways downstream of ROS. Furthermore, a clinical outlook into potential novel treatment options is provided.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction characterized by impaired bioenergetics, oxidative stress and aldehydic load is a hallmark of heart failure. Recently, different research groups have provided evidence that selective activation of mitochondrial detoxifying systems that counteract excessive accumulation of ROS, RNS and reactive aldehydes is sufficient to stop cardiac degeneration upon chronic stress, such as heart failure. Therefore, pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches targeting mitochondria detoxification may play a critical role in the prevention or treatment of heart failure. In this review we discuss the most recent findings on the central role of mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress and aldehydic load in heart failure, highlighting the most recent preclinical and clinical studies using mitochondria-targeted molecules and exercise training as effective tools against heart failure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intracellular calcium overload has been implicated in various pathological conditions including ischemia reperfusion injury. This study aims to explore the effect and probable mechanism of dantrolene, a ryanodine receptor and intracellular calcium antagonist, on the skeletal muscle ischemia reperfusion injury. MATERIALS AND METHODS SD rats were randomly divided into three groups: sham group which underwent anaesthesia and exposure of femoral vein, reperfusion group that received 2 h ischemia and the amount of diluent via femoral vein before 4 h reperfusion, dantrolene group that underwent 2 h ischemia and was given 2 mg/kg dantrolene via femoral vein before 4 h reperfusion. The parameters measured at the end of reperfusion included serum maleic dialdehyde (MDA), tissue myeloperoxidase (MPO) and muscle histology, as well as serum TNF-α and IL-10. RESULTS Levels of MDA, MPO and TNF-α increased in the reperfusion group, whereas the relevant expressions in the dantrolene group decreased significantly. Histological examination demonstrated significant improvements between the same both groups. IL-10 reflected the protection observed above with a significant up-regulation of expression after dantrolene administration. CONCLUSION Ryanodine receptor antagonist dantrolene exerted a significant protective effect against the inflammatory injury of skeletal muscle ischemia reperfusion. The underlying molecular mechanism is probably related to the suppression of TNF-α levels and the increment of IL-10 expression.

Abstract
Pre-conditioning is an exciting physiological phenomenon that, despite great efforts, has so far resisted translation to mainstream clinical medicine. Many potential triggers (e.g., ischemia of the organ in question or a remote organ, many different drugs) have been investigated, but recent work has implicated activation of mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2) as central to the process. A genetic polymorphism, known as ALDH2*2, is common worldwide (present in up to 40% of Han Chinese people) and produces a functionally different enzyme. The authors used a variety of protocols in the human ischemic forearm model, in participants with both enzyme types, to assess cytoprotection with low-dose sodium nitrite and attempt to further elucidate the role of ALDH2.
