Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) strongly protects against ischemia-reperfusion injury; however, its effect on subsequent myocardial oxygenation is unknown. Therefore, we determine in an in vivo mouse model of regional ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) if IPC attenuates postischemic myocardial hyperoxygenation and decreases formation of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (ROS/RNS), with preservation of mitochondrial function. The following five groups of mice were studied: sham, control (I/R), ischemic preconditioning (IPC + I/R, 3 cycles of 5 min coronary occlusion/5 min reperfusion) and IPC + I/R N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester treated, and IPC + I/R eNOS knockout mice. I/R and IPC + I/R mice were subjected to 30 min regional ischemia followed by 60 min reperfusion. Myocardial Po(2) and redox state were monitored by electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. In the IPC + I/R, but not the I/R group, regional blood flow was increased after reperfusion. Po(2) upon reperfusion increased significantly above preischemic values in I/R but not in IPC + I/R mice. Tissue redox state was measured from the reduction rate of a spin probe, and this rate was 60% higher in IPC than in non-IPC hearts. Activities of NADH dehydrogenase (NADH-DH) and cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) were reduced in I/R mice after 60 min reperfusion but conserved in IPC + I/R mice compared with sham. There were no differences in NADH-DH and CcO expression in I/R and IPC + I/R groups compared with sham. After 60 min reperfusion, strong nitrotyrosine formation was observed in I/R mice, but only weak staining was observed in IPC + I/R mice. Thus IPC markedly attenuates postischemic myocardial hyperoxygenation with less ROS/RNS generation and preservation of mitochondrial O(2) metabolism because of conserved NADH-DH and CcO activities. 相似文献

Local and remote ischemic preconditioning (IPC) reduce ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury and preserve cardiac function. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that remote preconditioning is memorized by the explanted heart and yields protection from subsequent I/R injury and that the underlying mechanism involves sarcolemmal and mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K(+) (K(ATP)) channels. Male Wistar rats (300-350 g) were randomized to a control (n = 10), a remote IPC (n = 10), and a local IPC group (n = 10). Remote IPC was induced by four cycles of 5 min of limb ischemia, followed by 5 min of reperfusion. Local IPC was induced by four cycles of 2 min of regional myocardial ischemia, followed by 3 min of reperfusion. The heart was excised within 5 min after the final cycle of preconditioning, mounted in a perfused Langendorff preparation for 40 min of stabilization, and subjected to 45 min of sustained ischemia by occluding the left coronary artery and 120 min of reperfusion. I/R injury was assessed as infarct size by triphenyltetrazolium staining. The influence of sarcolemmal and mitochondrial K(ATP) channels on remote preconditioning was assessed by the addition of glibenclamide (10 microM, a nonselective K(ATP) blocker), 5-hydroxydecanoic acid (5-HD; 100 microM, a mitochondrial K(ATP) blocker), and HMR-1098 (30 microM, a sarcolemmal K(ATP) blocker) to the Langendorff preparation before I/R. The role of mitochondrial K(ATP) channels as an effector mechanism for memorizing remote preconditioning was further studied by the effect of the specific mitochondrial K(ATP) activator diaxozide (10 mg/kg) on myocardial infarct size. Remote preconditioning reduced I/R injury in the explanted heart (0.17 +/- 0.03 vs. 0.39 +/- 0.05, P < 0.05) and improved left ventricular function during reperfusion compared with control (P < 0.05). Similar effects were obtained with diazoxide. Remote preconditioning was abolished by the addition of 5-HD and glibenclamide but not by HMR-1098. In conclusion, the protective effect of remote preconditioning is memorized in the explanted heart by a mechanism that involves mitochondrial K(ATP) channels. 相似文献

AbstractWhile ischemic preconditioning (IPC) and other cardioprotective interventions have been proposed to protect the heart from ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury by inhibiting mitochondrial complex I activity upon reperfusion, the exact mechanism underlying the modulation of complex I activity remains elusive. This study was aimed to test the hypothesis that IPC modulates complex I activity at reperfusion by activating mitochondrial Src tyrosine kinase, and induces cardioprotection against I/R injury. Isolated rat hearts were preconditioned by three cycles of 5-min ischemia and 5-min reperfusion prior to 30-min index ischemia followed by 2 h of reperfusion. Mitochondrial Src phosphorylation (Tyr 416) was dramatically decreased during I/R, implying inactivation of Src tyrosine kinase by I/R. IPC increased mitochondrial Src phosphorylation upon reperfusion and this was inhibited by the selective Src tyrosine kinase inhibitor PP2. IPC's anti-infarct effect was inhibited by the selective Src tyrosine kinase inhibitor PP2. Complex I activity was significantly increased upon reperfusion, an effect that was prevented by IPC in a Src tyrosine kinase-dependent manner. In support, Src and phospho-Src were found in complex I. Furthermore, IPC prevented hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and cellular injury in rat cardiomyocytes, which was revoked by PP2. Finally, IPC reduced LDH release induced by both hypoxia/reoxygenation and simulated ischemia/reperfusion, an effect that was reversed by PP2 and Src siRNA. These data suggest that mitochondrial Src tyrosine kinase accounts for the inhibitory action of IPC on complex I and mitochondrial ROS generation, and thereby plays a role in the cardioprotective effect of IPC. 相似文献

Intestinal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a critical condition associated with high morbidity and mortality. Studies show that ischemic preconditioning (IPC) can protect the intestine from I/R injury. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms of this event have not been fully elucidated. In the present study, 2-DE combined with MALDI-MS was employed to analyze intestinal mucosa proteomes of rat subjected to I/R injury in the absence or presence of IPC pretreatment. The protein content of 16 proteins in the intestinal mucosa changed more than 1.5-fold following intestinal I/R. These proteins were, respectively, involved in the cellular processes of energy metabolism, anti-oxidation and anti-apoptosis. One of these proteins, aldose reductase (AR), removes reactive oxygen species. In support of the 2-DE results, the mRNA and protein expressions of AR were significantly downregulated upon I/R injury and enhanced by IPC as confirmed by RT-PCR and western blot analysis. Further study showed that AR-selective inhibitor epalrestat totally turned over the protective effect of IPC, indicating that IPC confers protection against intestinal I/R injury primarily by increasing intestinal AR expression. The finding that AR may play a key in intestinal ischemic protection might offer evidences to foster the development of new therapies against intestinal I/R injury. 相似文献

Hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is an inevitable consequence during liver surgery. Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) has been shown to protect the livers from I/R injury, partially mediated by preservation of hepatic ATP contents. However, the precise molecular mechanisms of these events remain poorly elucidated. In this study, liver proteomes of the mice subjected to I/R injury pretreated with or without IPC were analyzed using 2‐DE combined with MALDI‐TOF/TOF mass analysis. Twenty proteins showing more than 1.5‐fold difference were identified in the livers upon I/R injury. Among these proteins, four proteins were further regulated by IPC when compared with nonpretreated controls. One of these proteins, ATP synthase β subunit (ATP5β) catalyzes the rate‐limiting step of ATP formation. The expression level of ATP5β, which was further validated by Western blot analysis, was significantly decreased upon I/R injury while turned over by IPC pretreatment. Change pattern of hepatic ATP corresponded with that of ATP5β expression, indicating that increasing hepatic ATP5β expression might be a reason for ATP‐preserving effect of IPC. In summary, this study provided new clues for understanding the mechanisms of IPC against I/R injury. The protective role of ATP5β might give evidences for developing new therapeutic approaches against hepatic I/R injury. 相似文献

This study examined the effects of ischemic preconditioning (IPC), allopurinol (Allo) or a combination of both on the extent of mitochondrial injury caused by hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). I/R increased the serum aminotransferase activity and the level of mitochondrial lipid peroxidation, whereas it decreased the mitochondrial glutathione level. Either IPC or Allo alone attenuated these changes with Allo+IPC having a synergistic effect. Allo increased the serum nitrite and nitrate level after brief ischemia. The significant peroxide production observed after 10 min of reperfusion after sustained ischemia was markedly attenuated by Allo+IPC. The mitochondria isolated after I/R were swollen, which was reduced by Allo+IPC. At the end of ischemia, the hepatic ATP level was lower and there was significant xanthine accumulation, which was attenuated by Allo+IPC. These results suggest that IPC and Allo act synergistically to protect cells against mitochondrial injury and preserve the hepatic energy metabolism during hepatic I/R. 相似文献

Diabetic heart (diabetes mellitus [DM]) has been shown to attenuate the beneficial effect of ischemic preconditioning (IPC) in rat heart. But the effect of IPC on diabetic rat heart that develops myopathy remains unclear. This study was designed to test the impact of IPC on diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) rat heart. Male Wistar rats were grouped as (a) normal, (b) DM (streptozotocin: 65 mg/kg; fed with normal diet), and (c) DCM (streptozotocin: 65 mg/kg; fed with high‐fat diet). Isolated rat hearts from each group were randomly subjected to (a) normal perfusion, (b) ischemia‐reperfusion (I/R), and (c) IPC procedure. At the end of the perfusion experiments, hearts were analyzed for injury, contractile function, mitochondrial activity, and oxidative stress. The results obtained from hemodynamics, cardiac injury markers, and caspase‐3 activity showed that DCM rat displayed prominent I/R‐associated cardiac abnormalities than DM rat heart. But the deteriorated physiological performance and cardiac injury were not recovered in both DM and DCM heart by IPC procedure. Unlike normal rat heart, IPC did not reverse mitochondrial dysfunction (determined by electron transport chain enzymes activity, ATP level, and membrane integrity, expression levels of genes like PGC‐1ɑ, GSK3β, complex I, II, and V) in DCM and DM rat heart. The present study demonstrated that IPC failed to protect I/R‐challenged DCM rat heart, and the underlying pathology was associated with deteriorated mitochondrial function. 相似文献

Whether ischemic postconditioning (IPC) can significantly alleviate ischemic injury hinges on the appropriate measure. In this study, the expression RGMa and IL-1β, IL-6 are investigated to estimate the therapeutic benefits of various postconditioning strategies after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion. The study consists of the sham-operated group and five treatment groups: ischemia/reperfusion (I/R), two proximate ischemic postconditioning (IPC-S and IPC-M), remote postconditioning (RIPC) and delayed postconditioning (DIPC) groups. We find that rats in IPC and RIPC groups exhibit significantly less neural deficit and lower infarct volume than that in I/R and DIPC groups after ischemia/reperfusion. Moreover, in ischemic cortex and hippocampus, the mRNA level of RGMa is much lower in IPC and RIPC groups. Immunohistochemical analysis indicates that the expression of RGMa, IL-1β and IL-6 are reduced in IPC and RIPC groups (especially in IPC-S group). Furthermore, neurofilament staining reveals that the rats in IPC and RIPC groups have less axonal injury than that in I/R and DIPC groups. Our studies suggest that the optimal strategy to attenuate cerebral ischemia/reperfusion is achieved by early, short-term, and multiple cycles of proximal IPC. The cerebral protective effect of IPC may be associated with the decreased expression of RGMa and inflammation mediators. 相似文献

This study examined the cytoprotective mechanisms of a combination of ischemic preconditioning (IPC) and allopurinol against liver injury caused by ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). Allopurinol (50 mg/kg) was intraperitoneally administered 18 and 1 h before sustained ischemia. A rat liver was preconditioned by 10 min of ischemia, followed by 10 min of reperfusion, and then subjected to 90 min of ischemia, followed by 5 h of reperfusion. Rats were pretreated with adenosine deaminase (ADA), 3,7-dimethyl-1-[2-propargyl]-xanthine (DMPX), and N-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (l-NAME) before IPC. Hepatic nitrite and nitrate and eNOS protein expression levels were increased by the combination of IPC and allopurinol. This increase was attenuated by ADA, DMPX, and l-NAME. I/R induced an increase in alanine aminotransferase activity, whereas it decreased the hepatic glutathione level. A combination of IPC and allopurinol attenuated these changes, which were abolished by ADA, DMPX, and l-NAME. The increase in the liver wet weight-to-dry weight ratio after I/R was attenuated by the combination of IPC and allopurinol. In contrast, hepatic bile flow was decreased after I/R, which was attenuated by the combination of IPC and allopurinol. These changes were restored by l-NAME. I/R induced a decrease in the level of mitochondrial dehydrogenase, whereas it increased mitochondrial swelling. A combination of IPC and allopurinol attenuated these changes, which were restored by ADA, DMPX, and l-NAME. Our findings suggest that a combination of IPC and allopurinol reduces post-ischemic hepatic injury by enhancing NO generation. 相似文献

Although adenosine A 1 receptors (A1R) have been associated to ischemic preconditioning (IPC), direct evidence for their ability to preserve mitochondrial function upon hepatic preconditioning is still missing and could represent a novel strategy to boost the quality of liver transplants. We tested if the A1R antagonist 8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine (DPCPX) prevented IPC in the liver and if the A1R agonist 2-chloro-N 6-cyclopentyladenosine (CCPA) might afford a pharmacological preconditioning. Livers underwent a 120 min of 70% warm ischemia and 16 h of reperfusion (I/R), and the IPC group underwent a 5-min ischemic episode followed by a 10-min period of reperfusion before I/R. DPCPX or CCPA was administered intraperitoneally 2 h before IPC or I/R. The control of mitochondrial function emerged as the central element affected by IPC and controlled by endogenous A1R activation. Thus, livers from IPC- or CCPA-treated rats displayed an improved oxidative phosphorylation with higher state 3 respiratory rate, higher respiratory control ratio, increased ATP content, and decreased lag phase. IPC and CCPA also prevented the I/R-induced susceptibility to calcium-induced mitochondrial permeability transition, the rate of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and the decreased mitochondrial content of phospho-Ser 9 GSK-3β. DPCPX abrogated these effects of IPC. These implicate the control of GSK-3β activity by Akt-mediated Ser 9-GSK-3β phosphorylation preserving the efficiency of oxidative phosphorylation and ROS-mediated cell death in the ability of A1R activation to mimic IPC in the liver. In conclusion, the parallel between IPC and A1R-mediated preconditioning also paves the way to consider a putative therapeutic use of the later in liver transplants. 相似文献

Diabetes mellitus (DM) has been reported to alter the cardiac response to ischemia–reperfusion (IR). In addition, cardioprotection induced by ischemic preconditioning (IPC) is often impaired in diabetes. We have previously shown that the subcellular localisation of the glycolytic enzyme hexokinase (HK) is causally related to IR injury and IPC protective potential. Especially the binding of HK to mitochondria and prevention of HK solubilisation (HK detachment from mitochondria) during ischemia confers cardioprotection. It is unknown whether diabetes affects HK localisation during IR and IPC as compared to non-diabetes. In this study we hypothesize that DM alters cellular trafficking of hexokinase in response to IR and IPC, possibly explaining the altered response to IR and IPC in diabetic heart. Control (CON) and type I diabetic (DM) rat hearts (65 mg/kg streptozotocin, 4 weeks) were isolated and perfused in Langendorff-mode and subjected to 35 min I and 30 min R with or without IPC (3 times 5 min I). Cytosolic and mitochondrial fractions were obtained at (1) baseline, i.e. after IPC but before I, (2) 35 min I, (3) 5 min R and (4) 30 min R. DM improved rate-pressure product recovery (RPP; 71 ± 10 % baseline (DM) versus 9 ± 1 % baseline (CON) and decreased contracture (end-diastolic pressure: 24 ± 8 mmHg (DM) vs 77 ± 4 mmHg (CON)) after IR as compared to control, and was associated with prevention of HK solubilisation at 35 min I. IPC improved cardiac function in CON but not in DM hearts. IPC in CON prevented HK solubilisation at 35 min I and at 5 min R, with a trend for increased mitochondrial HK. In contrast, the non-effective IPC in DM was associated with solubilisation of HK and decreased mitochondrial HK at early reperfusion and a reciprocal behaviour at late reperfusion. We conclude that type I DM significantly altered cellular HK translocation patterns in the heart in response to IR and IPC, possibly explaining altered response to IR and IPC in diabetes. 相似文献

Although the induction of myocyte apoptosis by ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) is attenuated by ischemic preconditioning (IPC), the underlying mechanism is not fully understood. Phosphatase and tensin homologs deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) promotes apoptosis through Akt-dependent and -independent mechanisms. We tested the hypothesis that IPC attenuates the mitochondrial localization of PTEN in the myocardium induced by I/R. Isolated hearts from wild-type mice were exposed to IPC or normal perfusion followed by 30 min of ischemia and reperfusion. IPC attenuated myocardial infarct size and apoptosis after I/R. Heart fractionation showed that mitochondrial PTEN and Bax protein levels and the physical association between them were increased by 30 min of I/R and that IPC attenuated all of these effects of I/R. Muscle-specific PTEN knockout decreased mitochondrial Bax protein levels in the reperfused myocardium and increased cell survival. To determine whether PTEN relocalization to mitochondria was influenced by I/R-induced production of ROS, hearts were perfused with N-acetylcysteine (NAC) to scavenge ROS or H(2)O(2) to mimic I/R-induced ROS. Mitochondrial PTEN protein levels were decreased by NAC and increased by H(2)O(2). PTEN protein overexpression was generated in mouse hearts by adenoviral gene transfer. PTEN overexpression increased mitochondrial PTEN and Bax protein levels and ROS production, whereas muscle-specific PTEN knockout produced the opposite effects. In conclusion, myocardial I/R causes PTEN localization to the mitochondria, related to the generation of ROS; IPC attenuates the mitochondrial localization of PTEN after I/R, potentially inhibiting the translocation of Bax to the mitochondria and resulting in improved cell viability. 相似文献

Brief and sublethal ischaemia renders an organ tolerant to subsequent prolonged ischaemia, which is called ischaemic preconditioning (IPC). In regard to the beneficial effects and endogenous mechanisms of renal delayed IPC, few data are available. In this study, we aim at determining reno-protective effects of delayed IPC against ischaemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, and illustrating whether these effects are associated with suppressing inflammation and nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) activation. I/R injury was induced by clamping both renal pedicles for 40 min, followed by 24 h of reperfusion. The rats were subjected to ischaemia for 20 min (preconditioning) or sham surgery (non- preconditioning) at day 4 before I/R. Functional and morphological parameters were evaluated at 24 h after reperfusion. At the same time, macrophage (ED-1(+)) infiltration, and the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) were assessed by immunohistochemistry. Moreover, I kappa B-alpha degradation and NF-kappaB/DNA binding activity were analyzed. Compared with rats exposed to I/R injury, preconditioned rats had a significant decrease in levels of serum creatinine (Scr, 384.3 +/- 21.8 micromol/L vs. 52.5 +/- 21.7 micromol/L; p<0.001), blood urea nitrogen (BUN, 40.4 +/- 2.7 mmol/L vs. 15.9 +/- 4.2 mmol/L; p<0.001) and serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST, 486.7 +/- 58.6 IU/L vs. 267.3 +/- 43.9 IU/L; p<0.001). Parallel to the above changes, preconditioned rats preserved structural integrity and decreased tubulointerstitial damage scores (3.4 +/- 0.3 vs. 0.2 +/- 0.05; p<0.001) and ED-1(+) cell infiltration (25.3 +/- 3.5 vs. 6.2 +/- 1.2 cells/HPF, p<0.01). Furthermore, our results showed that the expression of ICAM-1 and TNF-alpha, the degree of I kappa B-alpha degradation, and NF-kappaB/DNA binding activity were reduced by IPC. Taken together, our results demonstrated that delayed IPC offered both functional and histological protection, which may be related to suppression of inflammation in preconditioned kidneys. 相似文献

Transient global brain ischemia induces dysfunctions of mitochondria including disturbance in mitochondrial protein synthesis
and inhibition of respiratory chain complexes. Due to capacity of mitochondria to release apoptogenic proteins, ischemia-induced
mitochondrial dysfunction is considered to be a key event coupling cerebral blood flow arrest to neuronal cell death. Ischemic
preconditioning (IPC) represents an important phenomenon of adaptation of central nervous system (CNS) to sub-lethal short-term
ischemia, which results in increased tolerance of CNS to the lethal ischemia. In this study we have determined the effect
of ischemic preconditioning on ischemia/reperfusion-associated inhibition of mitochondrial protein synthesis and activity
of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes I and IV in the hippocampus of rats. Global brain ischemia was induced by 4-vessel
occlusion in duration of 15 min. Rats were preconditioned by 5 min of sub-lethal ischemia and 2 days later, 15 min of lethal
ischemia was induced. Our results showed that IPC affects ischemia-induced dysfunction of hippocampal mitochondria in two
different ways. Repression of mitochondrial translation induced during reperfusion of the ischemic brain is significantly
attenuated by IPC. Slight protective effect of IPC was documented for complex IV, but not for complex I. Despite this, protective
effect of IPC on ischemia/reperfusion-associated changes in integrity of mitochondrial membrane and membrane proteins were
observed. Since IPC exhibited also inhibitory effect on translocation of p53 to mitochondria, our results indicate that IPC
affects downstream processes connecting mitochondrial dysfunction to neuronal cell death. 相似文献

Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) caused by ischemic stroke treatments leads to brain injury and its pathological mechanism is related to autophagy. The underlying mechanism of kaempferol on cerebral I/R injury needs to be explored. To establish I/R injury, we used a middle cerebral artery occlusion-reperfusion (MCAO) model in rats. MCAO rats were treated with the same amount of saline (I/R group); Treatment group rats were treated orally with kaempferol (50, 100, 200 mg/kg) for 7 days before surgery. After reperfusion for 24 h, the scores of neurological deficits and infarct volume in each group were evaluated. LC3, Beclin-1 p62, AMPK and mTOR protein expression levels were examined by TTC staining, immunofluorescence staining, qRT-PCR and western blotting assay. H&E and TTC staining showed that compared with model group, the infarction size of rats in kaempferol group was markedly reduced. Meanwhile, the results showed that kaempferol had a dose-dependent nerve function repairability. Nissl and TUNEL staining showed that kaempferol could reduce neuronal apoptosis and ameliorate neuronal impairment after I/R. Western blotting and qRT-PCR results showed that kaempferol could protect the brain from ischemia reperfusion by activating autophagy. In addition, add AMPK inhibitor, western blotting and immumohistochemical staining showed that kaempferol mediated AMPK/mTOR signal pathway in MCAO rats. Kaempferol could mediate the AMPK signal pathway to regulate autophagy and inhibit apoptosis to protect brain against I/R injury. 相似文献

Anaesthetic preconditioning (APC) and ischemic preconditioning (IPC) ameliorate liver ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) injury and are important for regulating hepatic I/R injury. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short, noncoding RNA molecules of 21–23 nucleotides in length, and are currently under intensive investigation regarding their ability to regulate gene expression in a wide range of species. miRNA activity is involved in controlling a wide range of biological functions and processes. We evaluated whether APC and IPC are mediated by the same miRNAs by performing comprehensive miRNA screening experiments in a rat model of hepatic I/R injury. Twenty-one rats were randomly divided into three groups (n = 7/group): control (mock preconditioning), APC, and IPC. Control rats were subjected to 60 min of hepatic ischemia followed by 4 h of reperfusion, whereas the APC and IPC groups were preconditioned with 2% sevoflurane and hepatic ischemia for 10 min prior to ischemia-reperfusion, respectively. Liver samples were collected to measure miRNA levels after 3 h of reperfusion, and gene networks and canonical pathways were identified using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA). Blood samples were collected to measure the levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT). Although haemodynamic parameters did not vary among the groups, AST and ALT levels were significantly higher in the control group than in the APC and IPC groups. Comprehensive miRNA screening experiments revealed that most miRNAs altered in the APC group were common to those in the IPC group. IPA identified five miRNAs related to the Akt–glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β)–cyclin D1 pathway that were significantly affected by both preconditioning strategies. The application of either APC or IPC to ameliorate hepatic I/R injury results in expression of several common miRNAs that are related to the Akt–GSK–cyclin D1 pathway. 相似文献

ObjectivesRemote Ischemic postconditioning (RIPoC) is a cardioprotective strategy for alleviating the reperfusion injury. We hypothesized that RIPoC or ischemic postconditioning (IPoC) could protect the engrafted mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in reperfusion myocardium. MethodsFemale Sprague-Dawley rats were subject to 30 minutes of occlusion of left anterior descending (LAD). Ischemia reperfusion (IR) received reperfusion without interruption after ischemia. RIPoC received 3 cycles of 30 seconds reperfusion and re-occlusion on the limb at the onset of reperfusion. IPoC received 3 cycles of 30 seconds reperfusion and re-occlusion on the LAD at the same time. Male MSCs were intramyocardially administered after ischemia. ResultsCompared with that in IR group, ischemic myocardium in RIPoC+IPoC group, RIPoC group and IPoC group were found to have higher anti-oxidative stress and mitochondrial function level, lower lipid peroxidation and inflammational injury level, higher level of stromal cell derived factor-1 alpha and vascular endothelium growth factor gene expression at 3 days later. By immunohistochemical examination and quantitative polymerase chain reaction, more engrafted MSCs, better cardiac function and less cardiac fibrosis in RIPoC+IPoC group, RIPoC group and IPoC group were detected at 3 weeks after delivery. There were no significant differences between RIPoC and RIPoC+IPoC group. ConclusionsCombination therapy using intramyocardial MSCs transplantation with RIPoC enhanced transplantation efficiency and cardiac function, and reduced cardiac fibrosis. These beneficial effects were mainly attributed to hospitable milieu for engrafted cells. IPoC could not render additional effect on MSCs engraftment elicited by RIPoC. 相似文献
