Reperfusion of the ischemic myocardium is associated with a dramatic inflammatory response leading to TNF-alpha release, IL-6 induction, and subsequent neutrophil-mediated cytotoxic injury. Because inflammation is also an important factor in cardiac repair, we hypothesized the presence of components of the inflammatory reaction with a possible role in suppressing acute injury. Thus, we investigated the role of IL-10, an anti-inflammatory cytokine capable of modulating extracellular matrix biosynthesis, following an experimental canine myocardial infarction. Using our canine model of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion, we demonstrated significant up-regulation of IL-10 mRNA and protein in the ischemic and reperfused myocardium. IL-10 expression was first detected at 5 h and peaked following 96-120 h of reperfusion. In contrast, IL-4 and IL-13, also associated with suppression of acute inflammation and macrophage deactivation, were not expressed. In the ischemic canine heart, CD5-positive lymphocytes were the predominant source of IL-10 in the myocardial infarct. In the absence of reperfusion, no significant induction of IL-10 mRNA was noted. In addition, IL-12, a Th1-related cytokine associated with macrophage activation, was not detected in the ischemic myocardium. In vitro experiments demonstrated late postischemic cardiac-lymph-induced tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases (TIMP)-1 mRNA expression in isolated canine mononuclear cells. This effect was inhibited when the incubation contained a neutralizing Ab to IL-10. Our findings suggest that lymphocytes infiltrating the ischemic and reperfused myocardium express IL-10 and may have a significant role in healing by modulating mononuclear cell phenotype and inducing TIMP-1 expression.  相似文献

Apoptosis in the myocardium is linked to ischemia/reperfusion injury, and TNF-alpha induces apoptosis in cardiomyocytes. A significant amount of TNF-alpha is detected after ischemia and reperfusion. Soluble TNF-alpha receptor 1 (sTNFR1) is an extracellular domain of TNF-alpha receptor 1 and is an antagonist to TNF-alpha. In the present study, we examined the effects of sTNFR1 on infarct size in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) following ischemia/reperfusion. Male Wistar rats were subjected to left coronary artery (LCA) ligation. After 30 min of LCA occlusion, the temporary ligature on the LCA was released and blood flow was restored. Immediately after reperfusion, a total of 200 microg of sTNFR1 or LacZ plasmid was injected into three different sites of the left ventricular wall. At 6 h, 1 and 2 days after reperfusion, the TNF-alpha bioactivity in the myocardium was significantly higher in rats receiving LacZ plasmid than in sham-operated rats, whereas sTNFR1 plasmid significantly suppressed the increase in the TNF-alpha bioactivity. The sTNFR1 plasmid significantly reduced DNA fragmentation and caspase activity compared to the LacZ plasmid. Finally, the sTNFR1 expression-plasmid treatment significantly reduced the area of myocardial infarction at 2 days after ischemia/reperfusion compared to LacZ plasmid. In conclusion, the TNF-alpha bioactivity in the heart increased from the early stage of ischemia/reperfusion, and this increase was thought to contribute in part to the increased area of myocardial infarction. Suppression of TNF-alpha bioactivity with the sTNFR1 plasmid reduced the infarct size in AMI following ischemia and reperfusion.  相似文献

A major goal in the treatment of acute ischemia of a vascular territory is to restore blood flow to normal values, i.e. to "reperfuse" the ischemic vascular bed. However, reperfusion of ischemic tissues is associated with local and systemic leukocyte activation and trafficking, endothelial barrier dysfunction in postcapillary venules, enhanced production of inflammatory mediators and great lethality. This phenomenon has been referred to as "reperfusion injury" and several studies demonstrated that injury is dependent on neutrophil recruitment. Furthermore, ischemia and reperfusion injury is associated with the coordinated activation of a series of cytokines and adhesion molecules. Among the mediators of the inflammatory cascade released, TNF-alpha appears to play an essential role for the reperfusion-associated injury. On the other hand, the release of IL-10 modulates pro-inflammatory cytokine production and reperfusion-associated tissue injury. IL-1beta, PAF and bradykinin are mediators involved in ischemia and reperfusion injury by regulating the balance between TNF-alpha and IL-10 production. Strategies that enhance IL-10 and/or prevent TNF-alpha concentration may be useful as therapeutic adjuvants in the treatment of the tissue injury that follows ischemia and reperfusion.  相似文献

Much interest has been focused on the overexpression of proinflammatory cytokines, but studies on their soluble receptors are rare. For a comprehensive picture of cytokine activation in cardiac surgery, a combination of cytokines and the corresponding soluble receptor concentration should be determined. Blood samples were collected from the radial artery and coronary sinus perioperatively in ten patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting with cardiopulmonary bypass. TNF-alpha, IL-6, sTNFRI, sTNFRII, and sIL-6R levels in the plasma were determined. Systemic TNFRI, TNFRII and IL-6 increased significantly after reperfusion to the myocardium, while perioperative systemic sIL-6r levels were similar. Arterial and sinus levels of TNFRI, TNFRII and sIL-6r were similar before cardiopulmonary bypass. Five minutes after reperfusion to the myocardium, higher sinus TNFRI and TNFRII and lower sinus sIL-6R levels were observed as compared to the arterial levels. The myocardium release of sTNFRI (r=0.57, P=0.089) and sTNFRII (r=0.64, P=0.047) positively correlated with the change of cardiac index after cardiopulmonary bypass. Myocardium releases sTNFRI and sTNFRII after ischaemic-reperfusion injury, and this may be of benefit to cardiac performance. sIL-6R is constantly being produced in areas other than the myocardium, while sIL-6R levels are reduced by consumption in the myocardium after ischaemic-reperfusion injury.  相似文献

It is well established that reperfusion of heart is the optimal method for salvaging ischemic myocardium, however, the success of this therapy could be limited by reperfusion injury, which is involved in inflammatory responses. High density lipoprotein (HDL) has an anti-inflammatory function and can protect the heart from ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. In this study, we investigated the cardioprotective role of apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I), the major apolipoprotein of HDL, in I/R injury. Using rats subjected to myocardial I/R by ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD), we found that administration of ApoA-I (20 mg/kg, iv) before the onset of reperfusion of myocardial infarction can significantly reduce serum creatine kinase (CK) levels (62.1+/-13.8%, p<0.01) and heart TNF-alpha as well as IL-6 levels, compared with saline controls (40.4+/-14.7%, 44+/-9.8%, p<0.01 respectively). Moreover, ApoA-I treatment suppresses the expression of ICAM-1 on endothelium, thus diminishing neutrophil adherence, transendothelial migration, and the subsequent myocyte injury. We concluded that ApoA-I could effectively protect rat heart from I/R injury.  相似文献

局部缺血部位快速再灌注虽然保护了心肌,但也引起再灌注损伤。目前还没有减轻再灌注损伤的特效疗法,但近年来研究显示,G蛋白耦联受体(Gprotein-coupledreceptor,GPCR)的激动剂、胰岛素和缺血后处理可以在各种实验条件和各类动物模型中有效抵抗再灌注损伤。这些干预手段启动的心脏保护机制可能包括激活再灌注损伤补救激酶(reperfus ioninjury salvage kinase,RISK)途径、抑制糖原合酶激酶-3β(glycogen synthase kinase3β,GSK-3β)以及抑制线粒体膜通透性转换孔(mitochondrial permeabili tytransition pore,mPTP)开放等。这些研究成果有利于开发治疗急性心肌梗死的有效临床手段。  相似文献

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is associated with inflammation and apoptosis. Emodin plays an anti-inflammatory role in several inflammatory diseases. Recent studies have demonstrated that emodin protects against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. However, its mechanism underlying its effects remains unknown. In a murine model of AMI, based on ligation of the left coronary artery, administration of emodin reduced myocardial infarct size (MIS) in a dose-dependent manner. Emodin significantly suppressed TNF-alpha expression and NF-kappaB activation in the local myocardial infarction area. Treatment with emodin inhibited myocardial cell apoptosis by inhibiting caspase-3 activation. Therefore, these studies demonstrate that emodin protects against myocardial cell injury via suppression of local inflammation and apoptosis.  相似文献

再灌注疗法是临床治疗心肌缺血最有效的措施,但会引起再灌注损伤,调动机体内源性保护机制可以减轻再灌注损伤,保护缺血心肌。缺血预处理(ischemic preconditioning,IPC)和后处理(ischemic postconditioning,I-postC)是缺血心脏有效的内源性保护现象,可以减轻缺血再灌注(ischemia/reperfusion,I/R)后心肌坏死与心肌功能障碍,减少恶性心律失常的发生。内源性心脏保护的机制主要是通过诱导触发因子释放,经多条细胞内信号转导途径的介导,作用于多种效应器,影响氧自由基产生、钙超载等I/R损伤的关键环节而发挥心肌细胞保护作用。特别是可以在缺血后实施的I-postC具有良好的临床应用前景。本文以I-postC为重点综述内源性心脏保护作用、机制及其临床应用现状。  相似文献

We investigated the effects of tyrophostin AG 556, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, on the phenomenon of leukocyte accumulation during ischaemia and reperfusion of the myocardium. Male anaesthetized rats were subjected to total occlusion (45 min) of the left main coronary artery followed by 5 h reperfusion (MI/R). Sham myocardial ischaemia-reperfusion rats (Sham MI/R) were used as controls. Myocardial necrosis, myocardial myeloperoxidase activity (MPO), serum creatinine phosphokinase activity (CPK) serum Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF-alpha) and Interleukin 6 (IL-6), cardiac intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and TNF-alpha expression and myocardial contractility (left ventricle dP/dt(max)) were evaluated. Myocardial ischaemia plus reperfusion in untreated rats produced marked myocardial necrosis, increased serum CPK activity (196.5 +/- 19 U/100 ml, at the end of reperfusion) and myeloperoxidase activity (MPO, a marker of leukocyte accumulation) both in the area-at-risk (4.5 +/- 0.5 U/g/tissue) and in necrotic area (8.2 +/- 1.2 U/g/tissue), reduced myocardial contractility (1,706 +/- 52 mmHg/s, at the end of reperfusion) and induced a marked increase in the serum levels of TNF-alpha (1,950 +/- 97 pg/ml, at 1 h of reperfusion) and IL-6 (998 +/- 16 U/ml, at the end of reperfusion). Finally, myocardial ischaemia-reperfusion injury also increased cardiac mRNA for TNF-alpha and ICAM-1 in the myocardium-at risk. Tyrphostin AG 556 (0.5, 1 and 2 mg/kg subcutaneously 5 min after the onset of reperfusion) lowered myocardial necrosis and myeloperoxidase activity in the area-at-risk (1.5 +/- 0.2 U/g/tissue, following the highest dose) and in necrotic area (2.9 +/- 0.3 U/g/tissue following the highest dose), decreased serum CPK activity (96 +/- 9 U/100 ml, at the end of reperfusion), lowered serum TNF-alpha and IL-6, increased myocardial contractility (2,096 +/- 88 mmHg s, at the end of reperfusion) and reduced cardiac mRNA levels for TNF-alpha and ICAM-1. The present data suggest that tyrosine kinase inhibitors protect against myocardial ischaemia-reperfusion injury by reducing leukocyte accumulation to the ischaemic myocardium.  相似文献

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and the heart failure (HF) that often result remain the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. As such, new therapeutic targets need to be discovered to protect the myocardium against acute ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in order to reduce myocardial infarct (MI) size, preserve left ventricular function and prevent the onset of HF. Mitochondrial dysfunction during acute I/R injury is a critical determinant of cell death following AMI, and therefore, ion channels in the inner mitochondrial membrane, which are known to influence cell death and survival, provide potential therapeutic targets for cardioprotection. In this article, we review the role of mitochondrial ion channels, which are known to modulate susceptibility to acute myocardial I/R injury, and we explore their potential roles as therapeutic targets for reducing MI size and preventing HF following AMI.  相似文献

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a common cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Atherosclerotic plaques, as a hallmark of CAD, cause chronic narrowing of coronary arteries over time and could also result in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The standard treatments for ameliorating AMI are reperfusion strategies, which paradoxically result in ischemic reperfusion (I/R) injury. Sphingosine 1 phosphate (S1P), as a potent lysophospholipid, plays an important role in various organs, including immune and cardiovascular systems. In addition, high-density lipoprotein, as a negative predictor of atherosclerosis and CAD, is a major carrier of S1P in blood circulation. S1P mediates its effects through binding to specific G protein-coupled receptors, and its signaling contributes to a variety of responses, including cardiac inflammation, dysfunction, and I/R injury protection. In this review, we will focus on the role of S1P in CAD and I/R injury as a potential therapeutic target.  相似文献

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the leading cause of death, morbidity, and health costs worldwide. In AMI, a sudden blockage of blood flow causes myocardial ischemia and cell death. Reperfusion after ischemia has paradoxical effects and may exacerbate the myocardial injury, a process known as ischemic reperfusion injury. In this work we evaluated the lipidome of isolated rat hearts, maintained in controlled perfusion (CT), undergoing global ischemia (ISC) or ischemia followed by reperfusion (IR). 153 polar lipid levels were significantly different between conditions. 48 features had q < 0.001 and included 8 phosphatidylcholines and 4 lysophospholipids, which were lower in ISC compared to CT, and even lower in the IR group, suggesting that IR induces more profound changes than ISC. We observed that the levels of 16 alkyl acyl phospholipids were significantly altered during ISC and IR. Overall, these data indicate that myocardial lipid remodelling and possibly damage occurs to a greater extent during reperfusion. The adaptation of cardiac lipidome during ISC and IR described is consistent with the presence of oxidative damage and may reflect the impact of AMI on the lipidome at the cellular level and provide new insights into the role of lipids in the pathophysiology of acute myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Levels of adrenomedullin (AM), a potent vasodilatory peptide, have been shown to increase in the early stage of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The purpose of this study was to determine whether coronary sinus-aortic step-up of mature forms of AM is accelerated in patients with AMI after reperfusion. METHODS: The subjects were 29 consecutive patients with a first episode of anterior AMI and 10 normal controls. All patients with AMI underwent balloon reperfusion therapy within 24 h after symptom onset. Plasma levels of two molecular forms of AM (an active, mature form [AM-m] and an intermediate, inactive glycine-extended form [AM-Gly]) in the aorta and coronary sinus (CS) were measured by specific immunoradiometric assay after reperfusion. RESULTS: Plasma levels of AM-m and AM-Gly in the aorta and CS were higher in AMI patients than in controls. CS-aortic step-up of AM-m, which is an index of myocardial production of AM-m, was significantly greater in AMI patients than in controls (1.7 +/- 1.4 vs. 0.4 +/- 0.3 pmol/L, P < 0.01). However, there was no significant difference in CS-aortic step-up of AM-Gly (P = 0.30). AMI patients with left ventricular dysfunction (n = 10) had a significantly higher CS-aortic AM-m step-up than AMI patients without left ventricular dysfunction (n = 19). AM-m in the aorta and CS negatively correlated with the left ventricular ejection fraction (r = -0.50, r = -0.48, P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Myocardial synthesis of AM-m is accelerated in patients with reperfused AMI, especially in patients with critical left ventricular dysfunction. Increased myocardial synthesis of active AM may protect against cardiac dysfunction, myocardial remodeling, or both after the onset of AMI.  相似文献

This study aimed to explore the role of high mobility box 1 (HMGB1) and its receptor toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) on neutrophils in myocardial ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury. We constructed TLR4-mutant (C3H/HeJ) and control (C3H/HeN) mouse models of myocardial I/R injury and subjected the mice to 30min of ischemia and 6h of reperfusion. Light microscope was used to observe structural changes in the myocardium. HMGB1 levels were measured using quantitative real-time PCR and immunohistochemistry. Neutrophil accumulation, TNF-a expression and IL-8 levels were analyzed via myeloperoxidase (MPO) biochemical studies, quantitative real-time PCR and ELISA, respectively. The results demonstrated that fewer neutrophils infiltrated in the myocardium of TLR4-mutant mice after myocardial I/R and that TLR4 deficiency markedly decreased the ischemic injury caused by ischemia/reperfusion, and inhibited the expression of HMGB1, TNF-a, and IL-8, all of which were up-regulated by ischemia/reperfusion. These findings suggest that HMGB1 plays a central role in recruiting neutrophils during myocardial I/R leading to worsened myocardial I/R injury. This recruitment mechanism is possibly due to its inflammatory and chemokine functions based on the TLR4-dependent pathway.  相似文献

HBOC-201 (Biopure; Cambridge, MA) is a glutaraldehyde-polymerized bovine hemoglobin (Hb) solution that is stroma free, has lower viscosity than blood, and promotes O(2) unloading. We investigated the effects of HBOC-201 in a canine model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. Dogs were anesthetized and subjected to 90 min of regional myocardial ischemia and 270 min of reperfusion. HBOC-201 or 0.9% saline vehicle equivalent to 10% total blood volume was infused 30 min before myocardial ischemia. Hemodynamic data and peripheral blood samples were taken at baseline, 1 h of myocardial ischemia, and 1, 2, and 4 h of reperfusion. At 270 min of reperfusion, the area at risk (AAR) per left ventricle and the area of infarction (Inf) per AAR were determined. The myocardial AARs in the two study groups were similar. In addition, myocardial blood flow (as measured by radioactive microspheres) in the ischemic zone was similar between the vehicle and HBOC-201 groups. HBOC-201-infused dogs demonstrated a significant (P < 0.01) 56% reduction in Inf/AAR. Analysis of blood samples taken at 4 h of reperfusion showed a significant (P < 0.05) reduction in creatine kinase MB isoform for the HBOC-201 group. Histological analysis of the myocardium demonstrated significant (P < 0.01) reductions in neutrophil infiltration in the HBOC-201 group. These data indicate that treatment with HBOC-201 before myocardial ischemia-reperfusion reduces the extent of myocardial inflammation and ischemia-reperfusion injury in the canine myocardium.  相似文献

Inhalation of hydrogen (H2) gas has been demonstrated to limit the infarct volume of brain and liver by reducing ischemia-reperfusion injury in rodents. When translated into clinical practice, this therapy must be most frequently applied in the treatment of patients with acute myocardial infarction, since angioplastic recanalization of infarct-related occluded coronary artery is routinely performed. Therefore, we investigate whether H2 gas confers cardioprotection against ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats. In isolated perfused hearts, H2 gas enhances the recovery of left ventricular function following anoxia-reoxygenation. Inhaled H2 gas is rapidly transported and can reach ‘at risk’ ischemic myocardium before coronary blood flow of the occluded infarct-related artery is reestablished. Inhalation of H2 gas at incombustible levels during ischemia and reperfusion reduces infarct size without altering hemodynamic parameters, thereby preventing deleterious left ventricular remodeling. Thus, inhalation of H2 gas is promising strategy to alleviate ischemia-reperfusion injury coincident with recanalization of coronary artery.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: In acute myocardial infarction (AMI) treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), myocardial injury results from complex processes during both ischemia and reperfusion. Release of reactive oxygen species (ROS) may contribute to the accumulated myocardial damage. AIMS: To examine by frequent sampling of peripheral blood oxidative stress and early inflammation in patients undergoing primary PCI for AMI. Secondly, to assess whether a correlation exists between these parameters and the extent of myocardial damage. METHODS: Sixteen patients undergoing primary PCI within 6 h of AMI onset were included. Peripheral blood was sampled at start of procedure (t0) and repeatedly over 24 h following reperfusion. Main plasma analyses were: 8-iso-PGF2alpha (oxidative stress), 15-keto-dihydro-PGF2alpha (cyclooxygenase-mediated inflammation); and troponin-T (myocardial injury). Additional analyses included: total antioxidant status (TAS); vitamins; hsCRP and lipids. RESULTS: 8-Iso-PGF2alpha increased following restoration of blood flow, returned to t0 values after 3 h and was reduced below t0 the following day. TAS decreased significantly from t0 to the next day. There was no significant correlation between 8-iso-PGF2alpha and troponin T values. 15-Keto-dihydro-PGF2alpha was elevated during the first hour. There was a major rise in hsCRP after 24 h. CONCLUSION: Following reperfusion by primary PCI in AMI, oxidative stress and an inflammatory response are induced immediately. A rise in 8-iso-PGF2a during ischemia indicate that ROS generation may also take place during severely reduced coronary blood flow and hypoxia. No direct relationship between 8-iso-PGF2alpha or 15-keto-dihydro-PGF2alpha and troponin T was evident. The present study adds to the increasingly complex pathophysiological roles of ROS acting both as signal molecules and as mediators of tissue injury.  相似文献
