The Chromogranin A (CgA)-derived anti-hypertensive peptide catestatin (CST) antagonizes catecholamine secretion, and is a negative myocardial inotrope acting via a nitric oxide-dependent mechanism. It is not known whether CST contributes to ischemia/reperfusion injury or is a component of a cardioprotective response to limit injury. Here, we tested whether CST by virtue of its negative inotropic activity improves post-ischemic cardiac function and cardiomyocyte survival. Three groups of isolated perfused hearts from adult Wistar rats underwent 30-min ischemia and 120-min reperfusion (I/R, Group 1), or were post-conditioned by brief ischemic episodes (PostC, 5-cycles of 10-s I/R at the beginning of 120-min reperfusion, Group 2), or with exogenous CST (75 nM for 20 min, CST-Post, Group-3) at the onset of reperfusion. Perfusion pressure and left ventricular pressure (LVP) were monitored. Infarct size was evaluated with nitroblue-tetrazolium staining. The CST (5 nM) effects were also tested in simulated ischemia/reperfusion experiments on cardiomyocytes isolated from young-adult rats, evaluating cell survival with propidium iodide labeling. Infarct size was 61 ± 6% of risk area in hearts subjected to I/R only. PostC reduced infarct size to 34 ± 5%. Infarct size in CST-Post was 36 ± 3% of risk area (P < 0.05 respect to I/R). CST-Post reduced post-ischemic rise of diastolic LVP, an index of contracture, and significantly improved post-ischemic recovery of developed LVP. In isolated cardiomyocytes, CST increased the cell viability rate by about 65% after simulated ischemia/reperfusion. These results suggest a novel cardioprotective role for CST, which appears mainly due to a direct reduction of post-ischemic myocardial damages and dysfunction, rather than to an involvement of adrenergic terminals and/or endothelium.  相似文献

Fibrinogen (Fg) has been recognized to play a central role in coagulation, inflammation and tissue regeneration. Several studies have used Fg deficient mice (Fg−/−) in comparison with heterozygous mice (Fg+/−) to point the proinflammatory role of Fg in diverse pathological conditions and disease states. Although Fg+/− mice are considered ‘normal’, plasma Fg is reduced to ∼75% of the normal circulating levels present in wild type mice (Fg+/+). We report that this reduction in Fg protein production in the Fg+/− mice is enough to protect them from kidney ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) as assessed by tubular injury, kidney dysfunction, necrosis, apoptosis and inflammatory immune cell infiltration. Mechanistically, we observed binding of Fg to ICAM-1 in kidney tissues of Fg+/+ mice at 24 h following IRI as compared to a complete absence of binding observed in the Fg+/− and Fg−/− mice. Raf-1 and ERK were highly activated as evident by significantly higher phosphorylation in the Fg+/+ kidneys at 24 h following IRI as compared to Fg+/− and Fg−/− mice kidneys. On the other hand Cyclin D1 and pRb, indicating higher cell proliferation, were significantly increased in the Fg+/− and Fg−/− as compared to Fg+/+ kidneys. These data suggest that Fg heterozygosity allows maintenance of a critical balance of Fg that enables regression of initial injury and promotes faster resolution of kidney damage.  相似文献

MicroRNA(miRNA)是一类小的(~20个核苷酸)、非编码的单链RNA分子,能够负调控基因表达,涉及多种信号途径和病理生理过程。缺血再灌注损伤(ischemia reperfusion injury,IRI)指组织器官缺血后重新获得血液的再灌注过程,灌注后组织、器官功能不能恢复,造成功能障碍和结构损伤的现象。IRI是影响多个组织与器官复杂的、系统的生理病理过程,并能够产生很多不可逆的损伤,导致级联的多器官功能障碍。现已发现多种miRNA在组织器官IRI中发生明显的变化,表明miRNA能够直接或者间接影响组织器官IRI。本文综述了miRNA的靶基因以及在心、脑、肝和肾IRI中的调控作用。miRNA 不仅参与了器官IR 损伤的病理生理过程,而且作为IR损伤的特定标志物在临床诊断和干预治疗中具有广阔的前景。  相似文献

To investigate the protective effects of oxymatrine (OMT) on lung ischemia reperfusion injury (LIRI) in rabbits, models of LIRI in rabbit were used. Thirty-two rabbits were randomly divided into four groups: control group (n = 8), ischemia reperfusion group (I/R group, n = 8), OMTl group (n = 8), OMT2 group (n = 8). Lung tissue samples were collected at 40, 80, 120 min time-points after lung ischemia reperfusion. TNF-α, 1I-8, IL-10, apoptosis index (AI), and index of quantitative assessment of histologic lung injury (IQA) were measured in each group. TNF-α and IL-8 in I/R group were significantly higher than those of the control group and OMT2 group (P < 0.01), but in OMT2 group they were significantly lower than those of OMTl group (P < 0.05). IL-10 in OMT2 group and OMTl group was significantly higher than that of I/R group (P < 0.01). But in OMTl group it was significantly lower than that of OMT2 group (P < 0.05). AI in I/R group was significantly higher than that of OMT2 group and the control group at 80 min after lung ischemia reperfusion (P < 0.01). IQA in OMTl group and OMT2 group was significantly lower than that of the I/R group (P < 0.01). Oxymatrine can protect against LIRI in rabbits by upregulating levels of IL-10 and downregulating levels of TNF-α and IL-8, inhibiting the alveolar cells apoptosis and inflammatory response, and attenuating the acute LIRI.  相似文献

The cellular prion protein (PrPC), a protein most noted for its link to prion diseases, has been found to play a protective role in ischemic brain injury. To investigate the role of PrPC in the kidney, an organ highly prone to ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury, we examined wild-type (WT) and PrPC knockout (KO) mice that were subjected to 30-min of renal ischemia followed by 1, 2, or 3 days of reperfusion. Renal dysfunction and structural damage was more severe in KO than in WT mice. While PrP was undetectable in KO kidneys, Western blotting revealed an increase in PrP in IR-injured WT kidneys compared to sham-treated kidneys. Compared to WT, KO kidneys exhibited increases in oxidative stress markers heme oxygenase-1, nitrotyrosine, and Nε-(carboxymethyl)lysine, and decreases in mitochondrial complexes I and III. Notably, phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (pERK) staining was predominantly observed in tubular cells from KO mice following 2 days of reperfusion, a time at which significant differences in renal dysfunction, histological changes, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial complexes between WT and KO mice were observed. Our study provides the first evidence that PrPC may play a protective role in renal IR injury, likely through its effects on mitochondria and ERK signaling pathways.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that the extracellular oxidation of glutathione (GSH) may represent an important mechanism to limit hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury in male Fischer rats in vivo. Basal plasma levels of glutatione disulfide (GSSG: 1.5 ± 0.2μM GSH-equivalents), glutathione (GSH: 6.2 ± 0.4 μM) and alanine aminotransferase activities (ALT 12 ± 2U/I) were significantly increased during the l h reperfusion period following l h of partial hepatic no-flow ischemia (GSSG: 19.7 ± 2.2μM; GSH 36.9 ± 7.4μM; ALT: 2260 ± 355 U/l). Pretreatment with 1,3-bis-(2-chloroethyl)-I-nitrosourea (40mg BCNU/kg), which inhibited glutathione reductase activity in the liver by 60%. did not affect any of these parameters. Biliary GSSG and GSH efflux rates were reduced and the GSSG-to-GSH ratio was not altered in controls and BCNU-treated rats at any time during ischemia and reperfusion. A 90% depletion of the hepatic glutathione content by phorone treatment (300 mg/kg) reduced the increase of plasma GSSG levels by 54%, totally suppressed the rise of plasma GSH concentrations and increased plasma ALT to 4290 ± 755 U/I during reperfusion. The data suggest that hepatic glutathione serves to limit ischemialreperfusion injury as a source of extracellular glutathione, not as a cofactor for the intracellular enzymatic detoxification of reactive oxygen species.  相似文献

血红素加氧酶-1在缺血/再灌注损伤中的保护作用   总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7  
血红素加氧酶-1(Heme Oxygenase-1,HO-1)是催化血红素分解的关键酶。近年来,人们对血红素降解产物的抗氧化、抗炎症等功能的认识推动了对HO酶系的研究。缺血/再灌注损伤(IRI)是一个重要的临床问题,而临床上对IRI的防治尚缺乏有效的方法。目前发现HO-1过表达具有抗IRI的作用,其保护作用的可能机制有:抗氧化作用、调节微循环、调节细胞周期和抗炎症作用。  相似文献

Ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) in organ transplantation remains a serious and unsolved problem. Organs that undergo significant damage during IRI, function less well immediately after reperfusion and tend to have more problems at later times when rejection can occur. Biliverdin has emerged as an agent that potently suppress IRI in rodent models. Since the use of biliverdin is being developed as a potential therapeutic modality for humans, we tested the efficacy for its effects on IRI of the liver in swine, an accepted and relevant pre-clinical animal model. Administration of biliverdin resulted in rapid appearance of bilirubin in the serum and significantly suppressed IRI-induced liver dysfunction as measured by multiple parameters including urea and ammonia clearance, neutrophil infiltration and tissue histopathology including hepatocyte cell death. Taken together, our findings, in a large animal model, provide strong support for the continued evaluation of biliverdin as a potential therapeutic in the clinical setting of transplantation of the liver and perhaps other organs.  相似文献

Oxidative stress is a major contributor to kidney injury following ischemia reperfusion. Ferritin, a highly conserved iron-binding protein, is a key protein in the maintenance of cellular iron homeostasis and protection from oxidative stress. Ferritin mitigates oxidant stress by sequestering iron and preventing its participation in reactions that generate reactive oxygen species. Ferritin is composed of two subunit types, ferritin H and ferritin L. Using an in vivo model that enables conditional tissue-specific doxycycline-inducible expression of ferritin H in the mouse kidney, we tested the hypothesis that an increased level of H-rich ferritin is renoprotective in ischemic acute renal failure. Prior to induction of ischemia, doxycycline increased ferritin H in the kidneys of the transgenic mice nearly 6.5-fold. Following reperfusion for 24 hours, induction of neutrophil gelatinous-associated lipocalin (NGAL, a urine marker of renal dysfunction) was reduced in the ferritin H overexpressers compared to controls. Histopathologic examination following ischemia reperfusion revealed that ferritin H overexpression increased intact nuclei in renal tubules, reduced the frequency of tubular profiles with luminal cast materials, and reduced activated caspase-3 in the kidney. In addition, generation of 4-hydroxy 2-nonenal protein adducts, a measurement of oxidant stress, was decreased in ischemia-reperfused kidneys of ferritin H overexpressers. These studies demonstrate that ferritin H can inhibit apoptotic cell death, enhance tubular epithelial viability, and preserve renal function by limiting oxidative stress following ischemia reperfusion injury.  相似文献

Ischemia-reperfusion induced changes in concentration of phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylserine (PS), phosphatidylinositol (PI) and sphingomyelin (SM) in the gray matter taken in toto, white matter, dorsal horns, intermediate zone and ventral horns of the rabbit's spinal cord were studied and compared with neurohistopathological changes. With the exception of PI concentration in the dorsal horns, ischemia of 25 min caused significant degradation of all phospholipids. While short-lasting recirculation (1 h) did not returned the levels of phospholipids to control values, postischemic recirculation for 3 h sharply increased the resynthesis of all phospholipids, but only the concentration of PE, PS, and PI in the dorsal horns and PC in the intermediate zone significantly improved and returned close to control values. Corresponding neurohistopathological changes resulting after the same reperfusion periods are given.  相似文献

Aim

20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) and epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) are cytochrome P450 (CYP)-dependent eicosanoids that play opposite roles in the regulation of vascular tone, inflammation, and apoptosis. 20-HETE aggravates, whereas EETs ameliorate ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced organ damage. EETs are rapidly metabolized to dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acids (DHETs) by the soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH). We hypothesized that sEH gene (EPHX2) deletion would increase endogenous EET levels and thereby protect against I/R-induced acute kidney injury (AKI).

Methods

Kidney damage was evaluated in male wildtype (WT) and sEH-knockout (KO)-mice that underwent 22-min renal ischemia followed by two days of reperfusion. CYP-eicosanoids were analyzed by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry.

Results

Contrary to our initial hypothesis, renal function declined more severely in sEH-KO mice as indicated by higher serum creatinine and urea levels. The sEH-KO-mice also featured stronger tubular lesion scores, tubular apoptosis, and inflammatory cell infiltration. Plasma and renal EET/DHET-ratios were higher in sEH-KO than WT mice, thus confirming the expected metabolic consequences of sEH deficiency. However, CYP-eicosanoid profiling also revealed that renal, but not plasma and hepatic, 20-HETE levels were significantly increased in sEH-KO compared to WT mice. In line with this finding, renal expression of Cyp4a12a, the murine 20-HETE-generating CYP-enzyme, was up-regulated both at the mRNA and protein level, and Cyp4a12a immunostaining was more intense in the renal arterioles of sEH-KO compared with WT mice.

Conclusion

These results indicate that the potential beneficial effects of reducing EET degradation were obliterated by a thus far unknown mechanism leading to kidney-specific up-regulation of 20-HETE formation in sEH-KO-mice.  相似文献

缺血性损伤后恢复血液供应会导致缺血再灌注(ischemia reperfusion, IR)损伤,这会导致组织损伤进一步加剧。IR损伤伴随着一系列机制,包括谷氨酸兴奋性毒性、钙超载、氧化应激、炎症和细胞凋亡,最终导致细胞死亡。IR损伤过程均由Sirtuins家族调控,在Sirtuins家族中,特异性定位于细胞核中的SIRT6可以促进对DNA损伤和氧化应激的抵抗,抑制基因组的不稳定性,在代谢稳态中发挥作用,同时SIRT6在人重要脏器中处于高度表达状态。但SIRT6在IR损伤中研究较少,结合国内外最新的研究进展,对SIRT6在IR损伤中的作用进行了回顾性的总结和分析,希望对国内外学者对于SIRT6在IR损伤中的研究提供一些参考依据。  相似文献

In traditional Chinese medicine, Ligusticum wallichii (Chuan Xiong) and its bioactive ingredient, tetramethylpyrazine (TMP), have been used to treat cardiovascular diseases and to relieve various neurological symptoms, such as those associated with ischemic injury. In the present study, we investigated whether ultrasound (US) exposure could enhance the protective effect of TMP against cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Glutamate-induced toxicity to pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells was used to model I/R injury. TMP was paired with US to examine whether this combination could alleviate glutamate-induced cytotoxicity. The administration of TMP effectively protected cells against glutamate-induced apoptosis, which could be further enhanced by US-mediated sonoporation. The anti-apoptotic effect of TMP was associated with the inhibition of oxidative stress and a change in the levels of apoptosis-related proteins, Bcl-2 and Bax. Furthermore, TMP reduced the expression of proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α and IL-8, which likely also contributes to its cytoprotective effects. Taken together, our findings suggest that ultrasound-enhanced TMP treatment might be a promising therapeutic strategy for ischemic stroke. Further study is required to optimize ultrasound treatment parameters.  相似文献

糖尿病是一种常见病、多发病,严重威胁着人类的健康。现已明确,糖尿病是冠心病发病的一个重要因素。心肌缺血/再灌注(ischemia/reperfusion,I/R)损伤是临床常见的病理过程,同时是冠心病发病及心肌血运重建治疗过程中的核心环节,如何减轻I/R损伤一直是国际研究热点之一。糖尿病与I/R损伤对心肌都有损害作用,相关研究证明糖尿病能够进一步恶化I/R损伤对心肌的损伤作用。研究表明,缺血预处理(ischemia preconditioning,IPC)可以延缓或减轻心肌I/R损伤,同时,麻醉药预处理(anesthetic induced preconditioning,APC)也具有IPC样的心肌保护作用。其中,七氟烷作为现阶段临床较常用的吸入麻醉药,同样对心肌I/R损伤具有保护作用。本文就七氟烷对糖尿病心肌I/R损伤的影响及其机制做一综述。  相似文献
