Ischemic preconditioning in isolated perfused mouse heart: Reduction in infarct size without improvement of post-ischemic ventricular function 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Genetically engineered mice provide an excellent tool to study the role of a particular gene in biological systems and will be increasingly used as models to understand the signal transduction mechanisms involved in ischemic preconditioning (IP). However, the phenomenon of IP has not been well characterized in this species. We therefore attempted to examine whether IP could protect isolated mouse heart against global ischemia/reperfusion (GI/R) injury. Thirty adult mice hearts were perfused at constant pressure of 55 mmHg in Langendorff mode. Following 20 min equilibration, the hearts were randomized into three groups (n = 10/each): (1) Control Group; (2) IP2.5 Group: IP with two cycles of 2.5 min GI + 2.5 min R; (3) IP5 Group: IP with 5 min GI + 5 min R. All hearts were then subjected to 20 min of GI and 30 min R (37°C). Ventricular developed force was measured by a force transducer attached to the apex. Leakage of CK and LDH was measured in coronary efflux. Infarct size was determined by tetrazolium staining. Following sustained GI/R, infarct size was significantly reduced in IP2.5 (13.8 ± 2.3%), but not in IP5 (20.1 ± 4.0%), when compared with non-preconditioned control (23.6 ± 3.8%) hearts. CK and LDH release was also reduced in both IP2.5 and IP5 groups. No significant improvement in post-ischemic ventricular contractile function was observed in either IP groups. We conclude that IP with repetitive cycles of brief GI/R is able to reduce myocardial infarct size and intracellular enzyme leakage caused by a sustained GI/R in the isolated perfused mouse heart. This anti-necrosis cardioprotection induced by IP was not associated with the amelioration of post-ischemic ventricular dysfunction. 相似文献

Peripheral neuropathy following cisplatin treatment is a major limiting factor in cisplatin chemotherapy of cancer patients. We investigated the pathomechanism underlying cisplatin neuropathy using a mouse dorsal root ganglion neuron-neuroblastoma hybrid cell line (N18D3) developed in our laboratory. DNA fragmentation, a characteristic feature of apoptosis, was induced in hybrid neurons following treatment with cisplatin. Accumulation of p53, Fas, and Fas ligand (Fas-L) was also demonstrated in these neurons. Preincubation with N-acetylcysteine (NAC), a precursor of glutathione, blocked cisplatin-induced apoptosis completely, whereas Trolox, a vitamin E analogue, blocked it partially. Cisplatin-induced p53 accumulation was suppressed by NAC treatment, whereas p53 accumulation was retarded by Trolox treatment. In contrast, neither NAC nor Trolox showed any inhibitory effect on cisplatin-induced Fas/Fas-L accumulation. These results suggest that the neuroprotective effects of antioxidants against cisplatin-induced neurotoxicity in hybrid neurons are mediated mainly through the inhibition of p53 accumulation but not of Fas/Fas-L accumulation by these antioxidants. 相似文献
