Many patients with ischaemic heart disease also have diabetes. As myocardial infarction is a major cause of mortality and morbidity in these patients, treatments that increase cell survival in response to ischaemia and reperfusion are needed. Exosomes—nano‐sized, lipid vesicles released from cells—can protect the hearts of non‐diabetic rats. We previously showed that exosomal HSP70 activates a cardioprotective signalling pathway in cardiomyocytes culminating in ERK1/2 and HSP27 phosphorylation. Here, we investigated whether the exosomal cardioprotective pathway remains intact in the setting of type II diabetes. Exosomes were isolated by differential centrifugation from non‐diabetic and type II diabetic patients, from non‐diabetic and Goto Kakizaki type II diabetic rats, and from normoglycaemic and hyperglycaemic endothelial cells. Exosome size and number were not significantly altered by diabetes. CD81 and HSP70 exosome markers were increased in diabetic rat exosomes. However, exosomes from diabetic rats no longer activated the ERK1/2 and HSP27 cardioprotective pathway and were no longer protective in a primary rat cardiomyocytes model of hypoxia and reoxygenation injury. Hyperglycaemic culture conditions were sufficient to impair protection by endothelial exosomes. Importantly, however, exosomes from non‐diabetic rats retained the ability to protect cardiomyocytes from diabetic rats. Exosomes from diabetic plasma have lost the ability to protect cardiomyocytes, but protection can be restored with exosomes from non‐diabetic plasma. These results support the concept that exosomes may be used to protect cardiomyocytes against ischaemia and reperfusion injury, even in the setting of type II diabetes.  相似文献

We have previously identified exosomes as the paracrine factor secreted by mesenchymal stem cells. Recently, we found that the key features of reperfusion injury, namely loss of ATP/NADH, increased oxidative stress and cell death were underpinned by proteomic deficiencies in ischemic/reperfused myocardium, and could be ameliorated by proteins in exosomes. To test this hypothesis in vivo, mice (C57Bl6/J) underwent 30 min ischemia, followed by reperfusion (I/R injury). Purified exosomes or saline was administered 5 min before reperfusion. Exosomes reduced infarct size by 45% compared to saline treatment. Langendorff experiments revealed that intact but not lysed exosomes enhanced viability of the ischemic/reperfused myocardium. Exosome treated animals exhibited significant preservation of left ventricular geometry and contractile performance during 28 days follow-up. Within an hour after reperfusion, exosome treatment increased levels of ATP and NADH, decreased oxidative stress, increased phosphorylated-Akt and phosphorylated-GSK-3β, and reduced phosphorylated-c-JNK in ischemic/reperfused hearts. Subsequently, both local and systemic inflammation were significantly reduced 24 h after reperfusion. In conclusion, our study shows that intact exosomes restore bioenergetics, reduce oxidative stress and activate pro-survival signaling, thereby enhancing cardiac function and geometry after myocardial I/R injury. Hence, mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes are a potential adjuvant to reperfusion therapy for myocardial infarction.  相似文献

Activin A, a member of the transforming growth factor-β superfamily, is stimulated early in inflammation via the Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 signalling pathway, which is also activated in myocardial ischaemia–reperfusion. Neutralising activin A by treatment with the activin-binding protein, follistatin, reduces inflammation and mortality in several disease models. This study assesses the regulation of activin A and follistatin in a murine myocardial ischaemia–reperfusion model and determines whether exogenous follistatin treatment is protective against injury. Myocardial activin A and follistatin protein levels were elevated following 30 min of ischaemia and 2 h of reperfusion in wild-type mice. Activin A, but not follistatin, gene expression was also up-regulated. Serum activin A did not change significantly, but serum follistatin decreased. These responses to ischaemia–reperfusion were absent in TLR4−/− mice. Pre-treatment with follistatin significantly reduced ischaemia–reperfusion induced myocardial infarction. In mouse neonatal cardiomyocyte cultures, activin A exacerbated, while follistatin reduced, cellular injury after 3 h of hypoxia and 2 h of re-oxygenation. Neither activin A nor follistatin affected hypoxia-reoxygenation induced reactive oxygen species production by these cells. However, activin A reduced cardiomyocyte mitochondrial membrane potential, and follistatin treatment ameliorated the effect of hypoxia-reoxygenation on cardiomyocyte mitochondrial membrane potential. Taken together, these data indicate that myocardial ischaemia–reperfusion, through activation of TLR4 signalling, stimulates local production of activin A, which damages cardiomyocytes independently of increased reactive oxygen species. Blocking activin action by exogenous follistatin reduces this damage.  相似文献

Nitric oxide (NO) may play an essential role for maintenance of cardiac function and perfusion, while endothelial dysfunction of atherosclerotic vessels may aggravate ischaemia/reperfusion injury. This paper investigates the role of nitric oxide in ischaemia/reperfusion injury in hearts with coronary atherosclerosis. Hearts of apolipoprotein E/LDL receptor double knockout (ApoE/LDLr KO) mice fed an atherogenic diet for 7-9 months were isolated and Langendorff-perfused with 40 minutes of global ischaemia and 60 minutes reperfusion, and funtion and infarction compared with hearts of C57BL/6 controls in the prescence or abscence of the NO-donor SNAP or the NOS inhibitor L-NAME. Hearts of animals with atherosclerosis were more susceptible to ischaemia/reperfusion injury than hearts of animals with healthy vessels, evident as more impaired left ventricular performance. SNAP protected function and reduced infarct size in atherosclerotic hearts, but the same concentration of SNAP was detrimental in normal hearts, perhaps due to NO-overproduction and peroxynitrite formation demonstrated immunohistochemically as increased formation of nitrosylated tyrosine. A low concentration of SNAP protected against ischaemia/reperfusion dysfunction in normal hearts. L-NAME decreased left ventricular performance in atherosclerotic hearts. These findings suggest that impaired endothelium dependent function contributes to reperfusion injury in coronary atherosclerosis.  相似文献

Human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have the potential for improving cardiac function following myocardial infarction (MI). This study was performed to explore the cardioprotection of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs), adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs), and umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UCBMSCs) for myocardium in rats after MI. MI models were established in rats, which were injected with PBS, BMMSCs, ADMSCs, and UCMSCs. Cardiac function was detected by ultrasonic cardiogram. TTC staining, TUNEL staining, and immunohistochemistry were adopted to determine infarction area, cardiomyocyte apoptosis, and microvascular density (MVD), respectively. Exosomes were derived from BMMSCs, ADMSCs, and UCBMSCs, and identified by morphological observation and CD63 expression detection. Neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCMs) were isolated and cultured with hypoxia, subjected to PBS and exosomes derived from BMMSCs, ADMSCs, and UCMSCs. Flow cytometry and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were used to determine NRCM apoptosis and the levels of angiogenesis-related markers (VEGF, bFGF, and HGF). According to ultrasonic cardiogram, BMMSCs, ADMSCs, and UCMSCs facilitated the cardiac function of MI rats. Furthermore, three kinds of MSCs inhibited cardiomyocyte apoptosis, infarction area, and increased MVD. NRCMs treated with exosomes derived from BMMSCs, ADMSCs, and UCMSCs reduced the NRCM apoptosis and promoted angiogenesis by increasing levels of VEGF, bFGF, and HGF. Notably, exosomes from ADMSCs had the most significant effect. On the basis of the results obtained from this study, exosomes derived from BMMSCs, ADMSCs, and UCBMSCs inhibited the cardiomyocyte apoptosis and promoted angiogenesis, thereby improving cardiac function and protecting myocardium. Notably, exosomes from ADMSCs stimulated most of the cardioprotection factors.  相似文献

During acute cardiac ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R), an increased plasma proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin 9 (PCSK9) level instigates inflammatory and oxidative processes within ventricular myocytes, resulting in cardiac dysfunction. Therefore, PCSK9 inhibitor (PCSK9i) might exert cardioprotection against I/R injury. However, the effects of PCSK9i on the heart during I/R injury have not been investigated. The effects of PCSK9i given at different time‐points during I/R injury on left ventricular (LV) function were investigated. Male Wistar rats were subjected to cardiac I/R injury and divided into 3 treatment groups (n = 10/group): pre‐ischaemia, during ischaemia and upon onset of reperfusion. The treatment groups received PCSK9i (Pep2‐8, 10 μg/kg) intravenously. A control group (n = 10) received saline solution. During the I/R protocol, arrhythmia scores and LV function were determined. Then, the infarct size, mitochondrial function, mitochondrial dynamics and level of apoptosis were determined. PCSK9i given prior to ischaemia exerted cardioprotection through protection of cardiac mitochondrial function, decreased infarct size and improved LV function, compared with control. PCSK9i administered during ischaemia and upon the onset of reperfusion did not provide any of those benefits. PCSK9i administered before ischaemia exerts cardioprotection, as demonstrated by the attenuation of infarct size and cardiac arrhythmia during cardiac I/R injury. The attenuation is associated with improved mitochondrial function and connexin43 phosphorylation, leading to improved LV function.  相似文献

Mitochondrial autophagy (Mitophagy), the specific autophagic elimination of mitochondria, has been related with several forms of degenerative disease and mitochondrial dysfunction. It is involved in multiple cellular processes. In addition to one of its established key roles in the maintenance of normal cellular phenotype and function, there is growing interest in the concept that targeted modulation of mitophagy may reduce cerebral ischaemia/reperfusion injury. Induction of mitophagy results in selective clearance of damaged mitochondria in cells. In response to stress such as ischaemia/reperfusion, prosurvival and prodeath pathways are concomitantly activated in neuronal cells.  相似文献

Myocardial ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury attenuates the beneficial effects of reperfusion therapy. Poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase (PARP) is overactivated during myocardial I/R injury. Mitophagy plays a critical role in the development of myocardial I/R injury. However, the effect of PARP activation on mitophagy in cardiomyocytes is unknown. In this study, we found that I/R induced PARP activation and mitophagy in mouse hearts. Poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase inhibition reduced the infarct size and suppressed mitophagy after myocardial I/R injury. In vitro, hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) activated PARP, promoted mitophagy and induced cell apoptosis in cardiomyocytes. Poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase inhibition suppressed H/R‐induced mitophagy and cell apoptosis. Parkin knockdown with lentivirus vectors inhibited mitophagy and prevented cell apoptosis in H/R‐treated cells. Poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase inhibition prevented the loss of the mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm). Cyclosporin A maintained ΔΨm and suppressed mitophagy but FCCP reduced the effect of PARP inhibition on ΔΨm and promoted mitophagy, indicating the critical role of ΔΨm in H/R‐induced mitophagy. Furthermore, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and poly(ADP‐ribosylation) of CypD and TSPO might contribute to the regulation of ΔΨm by PARP. Our findings thus suggest that PARP inhibition protects against I/R‐induced cell apoptosis by suppressing excessive mitophagy via the ΔΨm/Parkin pathway.  相似文献

Administration of propofol at the time of reperfusion has shown to protect the heart from ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) injury. The aim of the present study was to investigate the molecular mechanism underling the cardioprotective effect of propofol against myocardial I/R injury (MIRI) in vivo and in vitro. Rat heart I/R injury was induced by ligation of the left anterior descending (LAD) artery for 30 min followed by 2-hr reperfusion. Propofol pretreatment (0.01 mg/g) was performed 10 min before reperfusion. In vitro MIRI was investigated in cultured cardiomyocytes H9C2 following hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injuries. Propofol pretreatment in vitro was achieved in the medium supplemented with 25 μmol/L propofol before H/R injuries. Propofol pretreatment significantly increased miRNA-451 expression, decreased HMGB1 expression, reduced infarct size, and I/R-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis in rat hearts undergoing I/R injuries. Knockdown of miRNA-451 48 hr before I/R injury was found to increase HMGB1 expression, infarct size, and I/R-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis in rat hearts in the presence of propofol pretreatment. These in vivo findings were reproduced in vivo that knockdown of miRNA-451 48 hr before H/R injuries increased HMGB1 expression and H/R-induced apoptosis in cultured H9C2 supplemented with propofol. In addition, luciferase activity assays and gain-of-function studies found that propofol could decrease HMGB1, the target of miRNA-541. Taken together our findings provide a first demonstration that propofol-mediated cardioprotection against MIRI is dependent of microRNA-451/HMGB1. The study provides a novel target to prevent I/R injury during propofol anesthesia.  相似文献

An emerging concept is that the mammalian myocardium has the potential to regenerate, but that regeneration might be too inefficient to repair the extensive myocardial injury that is typical of human disease. However, the degree to which stem cells or precursor cells contribute to the renewal of adult mammalian cardiomyocytes remains controversial. Here we report evidence that stem cells or precursor cells contribute to the replacement of adult mammalian cardiomyocytes after injury but do not contribute significantly to cardiomyocyte renewal during normal aging. We generated double-transgenic mice to track the fate of adult cardiomyocytes in a 'pulse-chase' fashion: after a 4-OH-tamoxifen pulse, green fluorescent protein (GFP) expression was induced only in cardiomyocytes, with 82.7% of cardiomyocytes expressing GFP. During normal aging up to one year, the percentage of GFP+ cardiomyocytes remained unchanged, indicating that stem or precursor cells did not refresh uninjured cardiomyocytes at a significant rate during this period of time. By contrast, after myocardial infarction or pressure overload, the percentage of GFP+ cardiomyocytes decreased from 82.8% in heart tissue from sham-treated mice to 67.5% in areas bordering a myocardial infarction, 76.6% in areas away from a myocardial infarction, and 75.7% in hearts subjected to pressure overload, indicating that stem cells or precursor cells had refreshed the cardiomyocytes.  相似文献

Neuronal apoptosis mediated by the mitochondrial apoptosis pathway is an important pathological process in cerebral ischemia–reperfusion injury. 14,15-EET, an intermediate metabolite of arachidonic acid, can promote cell survival during ischemia/reperfusion. However, whether the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway is involved this survival mechanism is not fully understood. In this study, we observed that infarct size in ischemia–reperfusion injury was reduced in sEH gene knockout mice. In addition, Caspase 3 activation, cytochrome C release and AIF nuclear translocation were also inhibited. In this study, 14,15-EET pretreatment reduced neuronal apoptosis in the oxygen–glucose deprivation and re-oxygenation group in vitro. The mitochondrial apoptosis pathway was also inhibited, as evidenced by AIF translocation from the mitochondria to nucleus and the reduction in the expressions of cleaved-caspase 3 and cytochrome C in the cytoplasm. 14,15-EET could reduce neuronal apoptosis through upregulation of the ratio of Bcl-2 (anti-apoptotic protein) to Bax (apoptosis protein) and inhibition of Bax aggregation onto mitochondria. PI3K/AKT pathway is also probably involved in the reduction of neuronal apoptosis by EET. Our study suggests that 14,15-EET could suppress neuronal apoptosis and reduce infarct volume through the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. Furthermore, the PI3K/AKT pathway also appears to be involved in the neuroprotection against ischemia–reperfusion by 14,15-EET.  相似文献

Ischemia is known to potently stimulate autophagy in the heart, which may contribute to cardiomyocyte survival. In vitro, transfection with small interfering RNAs targeting Atg5 or Lamp-2 (an autophagy-related gene necessary, respectively, for the initiation and digestion step of autophagy), which specifically inhibited autophagy, diminished survival among cultured cardiomyocytes subjected to anoxia and significantly reduced their ATP content, confirming an autophagy-mediated protective effect against anoxia. We next examined the dynamics of cardiomyocyte autophagy and the effects of manipulating autophagy during acute myocardial infarction in vivo. Myocardial infarction was induced by permanent ligation of the left coronary artery in green fluorescent protein-microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (GFP-LC3) transgenic mice in which GFP-LC3 aggregates to be visible in the cytoplasm when autophagy is activated. Autophagy was rapidly (within 30 min after coronary ligation) activated in cardiomyocytes, and autophagic activity was particularly strong in salvaged cardiomyocytes bordering the infarcted area. Treatment with bafilomycin A1, an autophagy inhibitor, significantly increased infarct size (31% expansion) 24 h postinfarction. Interestingly, acute infarct size was significantly reduced (23% reduction) in starved mice showing prominent autophagy before infarction. Treatment with bafilomycin A1 reduced postinfarction myocardial ATP content, whereas starvation increased myocardial levels of amino acids and ATP, and the combined effects of bafilomycin A1 and starvation on acute infarct size offset one another. The present findings suggest that autophagy is an innate and potent process that protects cardiomyocytes from ischemic death during acute myocardial infarction.  相似文献

Increased adenosine helps limit infarct size in ischaemia/reperfusion-injured hearts. In cardiomyocytes, 90% of adenosine is catalysed by adenosine kinase (ADK) and ADK inhibition leads to higher concentrations of both intracellular adenosine and extracellular adenosine. However, the role of ADK inhibition in myocardial ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury remains less obvious. We explored the role of ADK inhibition in myocardial I/R injury using mouse left anterior ligation model. To inhibit ADK, the inhibitor ABT-702 was intraperitoneally injected or AAV9 (adeno-associated virus)—ADK—shRNA was introduced via tail vein injection. H9c2 cells were exposed to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) to elucidate the underlying mechanisms. ADK was transiently increased after myocardial I/R injury. Pharmacological or genetic ADK inhibition reduced infarct size, improved cardiac function and prevented cell apoptosis and necroptosis in I/R-injured mouse hearts. In vitro, ADK inhibition also prevented cell apoptosis and cell necroptosis in H/R-treated H9c2 cells. Cleaved caspase-9, cleaved caspase-8, cleaved caspase-3, MLKL and the phosphorylation of MLKL and CaMKII were decreased by ADK inhibition in reperfusion-injured cardiomyocytes. X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP), which is phosphorylated and stabilized via the adenosine receptors A2B and A1/Akt pathways, should play a central role in the effects of ADK inhibition on cell apoptosis and necroptosis. These data suggest that ADK plays an important role in myocardial I/R injury by regulating cell apoptosis and necroptosis.  相似文献

During acute myocardial infarction (AMI), ischemia leads to necrotic areas surrounded by border zones of reversibly damaged cardiomyocytes, showing membrane flip-flop. During reperfusion type IIA secretory phopholipase A2 (sPLA2-IIA) induces direct cell-toxicity and facilitates binding of other inflammatory mediators on these cardiomyocytes. Therefore, we hypothesized that the specific sPLA2-IIA-inhibitor PX-18 would reduce cardiomyocyte death and infarct size in vivo. Wistar rats were treated with PX-18 starting minutes after reperfusion, and at day 1 and 2 post AMI. After 28 days hearts were analyzed. Furthermore, the effect of PX-18 on membrane flip-flop and apoptosis was investigated in vitro. PX-18 significantly inhibited sPLA2-IIA activity and reduced infarct size (reduction 73 ± 9%, P < 0.05), compared to the vehicle-treated group, without impairing wound healing. In vitro, PX-18 significantly reduced reversible membrane flip-flop and apoptosis in cardiomyocytes. However, no sPLA2-IIA activity could be detected, suggesting that PX-18 also exerted a protective effect independent of sPLA2-IIA. In conclusion, PX-18 is a potent therapeutic to reduce infarct size by inhibiting sPLA2-IIA, and possibly also by inhibiting apoptosis of cardiomyocytes in a sPLA2-IIA independent manner. A. van Dijk and P. A. J. Krijnen have contributed equally to the study.  相似文献

Recent studies have confirmed that cardiomyocyte‐derived exosomes have many pivotal biological functions, like influencing the progress of coronary artery disease via modulating macrophage phenotypes. However, the mechanisms underlying the crosstalk between cardiomyocytes and macrophages have not been fully characterized. Hence, this study aimed to observe the interaction between cardiomyocytes under hypoxia and macrophages through exosome communication and further evaluate the ability of exosomes derived from cardiomyocytes cultured under hypoxic conditions (Hypo‐Exo) to polarize macrophages, and the effect of alternatively activated macrophages (M2) on hypoxic cardiomyocytes. Our results revealed that hypoxia facilitated the production of transforming growth factor‐beta (TGF‐β) in H9c2 cell‐derived exosomes. Moreover, exosomes derived from cardiomyocytes cultured under normal conditions (Nor‐Exo) and Hypo‐Exo could induce RAW264.7 cells into classically activated macrophages (M1) and M2 macrophages respectively. Likewise, macrophage activation was induced by circulating exosomes isolated from normal human controls (hNor‐Exo) or patients with acute myocardial infarction (hAMI‐Exo). Thus, our findings support that the profiles of hAMI‐Exo have been changed, which could regulate the polarization of macrophages and subsequently the polarized M2 macrophages reduced the apoptosis of cardiomyocytes in return. Based on our findings, we speculate that exosomes have emerged as important inflammatory response modulators regulating cardiac oxidative stress injury.  相似文献

Myocardial infarction (MI) commonly leads to cardiomyocyte apoptosis and heart failure. Mangiferin is a natural glucosylxanthone extracted from mango fruits and leaves, which has anti-apoptotic and anti-inflammatory properties in experimental cardiovascular diseases. In the present study, we investigated the role and detailed mechanism of mangiferin in MI. We used ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery to establish an MI model in vivo, and cardiomyocyte-specific Sirt1 knockout mice were used to identify the mechanism of mangiferin. For in vitro studies, oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD) was used to mimic ischaemia in H9c2 cardiomyocytes. In mice, mangiferin treatment increased Sirt1 expression after MI, significantly reduced the infarct area, and prevented MI-induced apoptosis and heart failure. Mangiferin reduced OGD-induced cellular apoptosis in H9c2 cells. Meanwhile, Sirt1 knockout/silencing abolished the protective effects of mangiferin. Further studies revealed that mangiferin increased FoxO3a deacetylation by up-regulating Sirt1, thus preventing apoptosis, and adenovirus-mediated constitutive acetylation of FoxO3a restricted the anti-apoptotic effects of mangiferin in vivo and in vitro. Our results indicate that mangiferin prevents cardiomyocyte apoptosis and the subsequent heart failure by activating the Sirt1/FoxO3a pathway in MI, and suggest that mangiferin may have an interesting potential in following studies towards clinical evaluation.  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

Background

Heart failure due to diastolic dysfunction exacts a major economic, morbidity and mortality burden in the United States. Therapeutic agents to improve diastolic dysfunction are limited. It was recently found that Dynamin related protein 1 (Drp1) mediates mitochondrial fission during ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, whereas inhibition of Drp1 decreases myocardial infarct size. We hypothesized that Dynasore, a small noncompetitive dynamin GTPase inhibitor, could have beneficial effects on cardiac physiology during I/R injury.

Methods and Results

In Langendorff perfused mouse hearts subjected to I/R (30 minutes of global ischemia followed by 1 hour of reperfusion), pretreatment with 1 µM Dynasore prevented I/R induced elevation of left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP), indicating a significant and specific lusitropic effect. Dynasore also decreased cardiac troponin I efflux during reperfusion and reduced infarct size. In cultured adult mouse cardiomyocytes subjected to oxidative stress, Dynasore increased cardiomyocyte survival and viability identified by trypan blue exclusion assay and reduced cellular Adenosine triphosphate(ATP) depletion. Moreover, in cultured cells, Dynasore pretreatment protected mitochondrial fragmentation induced by oxidative stress.

Conclusion

Dynasore protects cardiac lusitropy and limits cell damage through a mechanism that maintains mitochondrial morphology and intracellular ATP in stressed cells. Mitochondrial protection through an agent such as Dynasore can have clinical benefit by positively influencing the energetics of diastolic dysfunction.  相似文献
