AbstractA key component of cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is the increased generation of reactive oxygen species, leading to enhanced inflammation and tissue dysfunction in patients following intervention for myocardial infarction. In this study we hypothesized that oxidative stress, due to ischemia-reperfusion, induces senescence which contributes to the pathophysiology of cardiac IRI. We demonstrate that IRI induces cellular senescence in both cardiomyocytes and interstitial cell populations and treatment with the senolytic drug navitoclax after ischemia-reperfusion improves left ventricular function, increases myocardial vascularization, and decreases scar size. SWATH-MS based proteomics reveal that biological processes associated with fibrosis and inflammation, that were increased following ischemia-reperfusion, were attenuated upon senescent cell clearance. Furthermore, navitoclax treatment reduced the expression of proinflammatory, profibrotic and anti-angiogenic cytokines, including interferon gamma-induced protein-10, TGF-β3, interleukin-11, interleukin-16 and fractalkine. Our study provides proof-of-concept evidence that cellular senescence contributes to impaired heart function and adverse remodeling following cardiac ischemia-reperfusion. We also establish that post-IRI senescent cells play a considerable role in the inflammatory response. Subsequently, senolytic treatment, at a clinically feasible time point, attenuates multiple components of this response and improves clinically important parameters. Thus, cellular senescence represents a potential novel therapeutic avenue to improve patient outcomes following cardiac ischemia-reperfusion.

The significant reduction in ‘ischemic time’ through capillary diffusion of primary percutaneous intervention (pPCI) has rendered myocardial-ischemia reperfusion injury (MIRI) prevention a major issue in order to improve the prognosis of ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients. In fact, while the ischemic damage increases with the severity and the duration of blood flow reduction, reperfusion injury reaches its maximum with a moderate amount of ischemic injury. MIRI leads to the development of post-STEMI left ventricular remodeling (post-STEMI LVR), thereby increasing the risk of arrhythmias and heart failure. Single pharmacological and mechanical interventions have shown some benefits, but have not satisfactorily reduced mortality. Therefore, a multitarget therapeutic strategy is needed, but no univocal indications have come from the clinical trials performed so far. On the basis of the results of the consistent clinical studies analyzed in this review, we try to design a randomized clinical trial aimed at evaluating the effects of a reasoned multitarget therapeutic strategy on the prevention of post-STEMI LVR. In fact, we believe that the correct timing of pharmacological and mechanical intervention application, according to their specific ability to interfere with survival pathways, may significantly reduce the incidence of post-STEMI LVR and thus improve patient prognosis.

Abstract Background Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) is one of the leading causes of human death. Nod-like receptor protein-3 (NLRP3) inflammasome signaling pathway involved in the pathogenesis of MIRI. However, the upstream regulating mechanisms of NLRP3 at molecular level remains unknown. Purpose This study investigated the role of microRNA330-5p (miR-330-5p) in NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated MIRI and the associated mechanism. Methods Mice underwent 45 min occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery followed by different times of reperfusion. Myocardial miR-330-5p expression was examined by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and miR-330-5p antagomir and agomir were used to regulate miR-330-5p expression. To evaluate the role of miR-330-5p in MIRI, Evans Blue (EB)/2, 3, 5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining, echocardiography, and immunoblotting were used to assess infarct volume, cardiac function, and NLRP3 inflammasome activation, respectively. Further, in vitro myocardial ischemia-reperfusion model was established in cardiomyocytes (H9C2 cell line). A luciferase binding assay was used to examine whether miR-330-5p directly bound to T-cell immunoglobulin domain and mucin domain-containing molecule-3 (TIM3). Finally, the role of miR-330-5p/TIM3 axis in regulating apoptosis and NLRP3 inflammasome formation were evaluated using flow cytometry assay and immunofluorescence staining. Results Compared to the model group, inhibiting miR-330-5p significantly aggravated MIRI resulting in increased infarct volume (58.09±6.39% vs. 37.82±8.86%, P<0.01) and more severe cardiac dysfunction (left ventricular ejection fraction [LVEF] 12.77%±6.07% vs. 27.44%±4.47%, P<0.01; left ventricular end-diastolic volume [LVEDV] 147.18±25.82 vs. 101.31±33.20, P<0.05; left ventricular end-systolic volume [LVESV] 129.11±30.17 vs. 74.29±28.54, P<0.05). Moreover, inhibiting miR-330-5p significantly increased the levels of NLRP3 inflammasome related proteins including caspase-1 (0.80±0.083 vs. 0.60±0.062, P<0.05), interleukin (IL)-1β (0.87±0.053 vs. 0.79±0.083, P<0.05), IL-18 (0.52±0.063 vs. 0.49±0.098, P<0.05) and tissue necrosis factor (TNF)-α (1.47±0.17 vs. 1.03±0.11, P<0.05). Furthermore, TIM3 was confirmed as a potential target of miR-330-5p. As predicted, suppression of TIM3 by small interfering RNA (siRNA) ameliorated the anti-miR-330-5p-mediated apoptosis of cardiomyocytes and activation of NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathway (Figure 1). Conclusion Overall, our study indicated that miR-330-5p/TIM3 axis involved in the regulating mechanism of NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Baicalin is a natural flavonoid glycoside that confers protection against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. However, its mechanism has not been fully understood. This study focused on elucidating the role of ferroptosis in baicalin-generated protective effects on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury by using the myocardial I/R rat model and oxygen–glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) H9c2 cells. Our results show that baicalin improved myocardial I/R challenge–induced ST segment elevation, coronary flow (CF), left ventricular systolic pressure , infarct area, and pathological changes and prevented OGD/R-triggered cell viability loss. In addition, enhanced lipid peroxidation and significant iron accumulation along with activated transferrin receptor protein 1 (TfR1) signal and nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4)-medicated ferritinophagy were observed in in vivo and in vitro models, which were reversed by baicalin treatment. Furthermore, acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4) overexpression compromised baicalin-generated protective effect in H9c2 cells. Taken together, our findings suggest that baicalin prevents against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury via suppressing ACSL4-controlled ferroptosis. This study provides a novel target for the prevention of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Abstract Liver ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) is a dreadful vascular complication, which leads to liver damage. It is often associated with graft loss in liver transplantation and with a higher morbidity and mortality. IRI can have different causes, such as inflow clumping during surgical procedures in hepatic resection, liver transplantation, trauma, as well as during the stenosis of the vasculature caused by cancer. Here, we show a detailed IRI protocol in a porcine model.

Hyperthermia-induced cardioprotection during myocardial ischemia may involve increased activity of antioxidative enzymes. In this study we investigated the effects of 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole (3-AT), an irreversible catalase inhibitor, in heat-shocked (HS) rabbits subjected to ischemia-reperfusion injury. Rabbits underwent whole body hyperthermia at 42 degrees C for 15 min. Twenty-four hours later, rabbits were administered either saline vehicle or 3-AT (1 or 2 g/kg i.p.) 30 min before undergoing 30 min of regional coronary occlusion and 3 h reperfusion. Controls did not undergo whole body hyperthermia and were given either saline or 3-AT. Heart rate and left ventricular pressure were recorded continuously during these experiments. Infarct area (tetrazolium staining) was normalized to anatomic risk zone size (microsphere autoradiography). Expression of HSP 71 was verified using Western blot analysis; myocardial catalase activity was determined in tissue biopsies. Infarct size was significantly reduced in HS rabbits (25.1 +/- 2.8%, P = 0.2; means +/- SE) compared with controls (53.6 +/- 4.7%). Treatment with 1 g/kg 3-AT attenuated HS-mediated cardioprotection (36.9 +/- 4.9%, P = 0.063 vs. HS); protection was abolished with 2 g/kg 3-AT (48.9 +/- 6.6%). Myocardial catalase activities were higher in tissue biopsies from HS rabbits (47.0 +/- 4.5 U/mg protein, P < or = 0.02) compared with controls (33.4 +/- 1.9 U/mg protein); catalase activities were significantly reduced in rabbits treated with 3-AT. In conclusion, whole body hyperthermia increases expression levels of HSP 71; myocardial catalase activity is also significantly increased. Myocardial protection is HS rabbits subjected to ischemia-reperfusion injury was reversed with 3-AT. These data suggest that increased intracellular activities of catalase and possibly other antioxidant enzymes is an important mechanism for hyperthermia-mediated cellular protection.

Myocardial Ischemia Reperfusion

The purpose of this study was to determine whether the protective effects of adenosine on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury are altered with age, and if so, to clarify the mechanisms that underlie this change related to nitric oxide (NO) derived from the vascular endothelium. Isolated perfused rat hearts were exposed to 30 min of ischemia and 60 min of reperfusion. In the adult hearts, administration of adenosine (5 μmol/l) stimulated NO release (1.06 ± 0.19 nmol · min−1 · g−1, P < 0.01 vs. vehicle), increased coronary flow, improved cardiac functional recovery (left ventricular developed pressure 79 ± 3.8 vs. 57 ± 3.1 mmHg in vehicle, P < 0.001; maximal rate of left ventricular pressure development 2,385 ± 103 vs. 1,780 ± 96 in vehicle, P < 0.001), and reduced myocardial creatine kinase loss (95 ± 3.9 vs. 159 ± 4.6 U/100 mg protein, P < 0.01). In aged hearts, adenosine-stimulated NO release was markedly reduced (+0.42 ± 0.12 nmol · min−1 · g−1 vs. vehicle), and the cardioprotective effects of adenosine were also attenuated. Inhibition of NO production in the adult hearts significantly decreased the cardioprotective effects of adenosine, whereas supplementation of NO in the aged hearts significantly enhanced the cardioprotective effects of adenosine. The results show that the protective effects of adenosine on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury are markedly diminished in aged animals, and that the loss in NO release in response to adenosine may be at least partially responsible for this age-related alteration.
