Reperfusion Injury Salvage Kinase

A previous study in our laboratory demonstrated that transfusion of plasma collected at the late phase of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) could reduce myocardial infarct size. Here, we tested whether the reperfusion injury salvage kinase (RISK) and survivor activating factor enhancement (SAFE) pathways are involved in transferring protection. In a two-part study, donor rats (n=3) donated plasma 48 hours after RIPC (preconditioned plasma) or control (nonpreconditioned plasma). Normal (part 1) or ischemic (part 2) myocardia were collected from recipients (n=6) 24 hours after receiving normal saline, nonpreconditioned plasma, and preconditioned plasma or after further suffering ischemia reperfusion. Western blot was performed to analyze STAT3, Akt, and Erk1/2 phosphorylation in normal and ischemic myocardium (central area and border area). In normal myocardia, preconditioned plasma increased Akt and Erk1/2 phosphorylation significantly compared to nonpreconditioned plasma and normal saline; no STAT3 phosphorylation was detected. In ischemic myocardia, preconditioned plasma increased Akt and Erk1/2 phosphorylation significantly in both central and border areas compared to other fluids; no significant difference in STAT3 phosphorylation occurred among groups. Transfusion of preconditioned plasma collected at the late phase of RIPC could activate the RISK but not SAFE pathway, suggesting that RISK pathway may be involved in transferring protection.

Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) induces a prolonged late phase of multi-organ protection against ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that RIPC confers late protection against myocardial IR injury by upregulating expression of IL-10. Mice were exposed to lower limb RIPC or sham leg ischemia. After 24 h, mice with RIPC demonstrated decreased myocardial infarct size and improved cardiac contractility following 30-min ischemia and 120-min reperfusion (I-30/R-120), accompanied by increased phosphorylation of Akt and eNOS in the heart. These effects of RIPC were completely blocked by anti-IL-10 receptor antibodies. Moreover, in IL-10 KO mice, RIPC was no longer able to provide cardioprotection against IR injury. IL-10 receptors were expressed in cardiomyocytes under basal conditions. Stimulation with exogenous IL-10 increased Akt phosphorylation and decreased myocardial infarct size after I-30/R-120 in isolated perfused hearts. Wildtype mice with RIPC demonstrated increased plasma IL-10 levels, while in the preconditioned gastrocnemius muscle, the phosphatase PTEN was inactivated and expression of IL-10 was increased through Stat3. Myocyte-specific PTEN inactivation led to increased Stat3 phosphorylation and IL-10 protein expression in the gastrocnemius muscle. Taken together, these results suggest that RIPC induces late protection against myocardial IR injury by increasing expression of IL-10 in the remote muscle, followed by release of IL-10 into the circulation, and activation of protective signaling pathways in the heart. This study provides a scientific basis for the use of RIPC to confer systemic protection against IR injury.

Abstract Background Off pump coronary artery revascularization (OPCAB) surgeries have benefits over the conventional on pump cardiac surgery, because it avoids the trauma caused by cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and minimize aortic manipulation. However, some disadvantages of OPCAB include the concern of ineffective coronary revascularization. Some drugs have shown the ability to protect the myocardium in different studies, by different methods. The usage of intralipid has been shown to make a better functional recovery of the cardiac muscles and help to decrease the myocardial infarct size, it shortens the action potential time, which show polyunsaturated fatty acids diets mechanism as an antiarrhythmic drug, and are associated with low incidence of coronary artery disease. Methods We divided patients into two groups according to the randomization envelopes: intralipid group (group A) received 1.5 ml/kg intralipid 20% through central venous line after sternotomy over 1 h and during infusion, blood pressure, heart rate, and temperature were monitored all through the infusion time. Control group (group B) received normal saline 0.9% in the same volume over the same duration. Results This study showed that infusion of 1.5 ml/kg intralipid after sternotomy in off pump coronary artery revascularization given as preconditioning agent improve the myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury, decrease the need for high doses of nor adrenaline infusion after revascularization, earlier normalization in troponin levels starting 24 h after surgery and higher values of cardiac index were measured in ICU using PICCO. Conclusions This study showed the benefits of infusion of 1.5 ml/kg of intralipid after sternotomy, in preconditioning during OPCABG. Preconditioning with intralipid proved to decrease reperfusion injury in myocardium expressed by improvement in cardiac functions (EF and cardiac index) and normalization of specific cardiac marker (cardiac troponin I).

Cytochrome P-450 (CYP) ω-hydroxylases and their arachidonic acid (AA) metabolite, 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), produce a detrimental effect on ischemia-reperfusion injury in canine hearts, and the inhibition of CYP ω-hydroxylases markedly reduces myocardial infarct size expressed as a percentage of the area at risk (IS/AAR, %). In this study, we demonstrated that a specific CYP ω-hydroxylase inhibitor, N-methylsulfonyl-12,12-dibromododec-11-enamide (DDMS), markedly reduced 20-HETE production during ischemia-reperfusion and reduced myocardial infarct size compared with control [19.5 ± 1.0% (control), 9.6 ± 1.5% (0.40 mg/kg DDMS), 4.0 ± 2.0% (0.81 mg/kg DDMS), P < 0.01]. In addition, 20-hydroxyeicosa-6( Z),15( Z)-dienoic acid (20-HEDE, a putative 20-HETE antagonist) significantly reduced myocardial infarct size from control [10.3 ± 1.3% (0.032 mg/kg 20-HEDE) and 5.9 ± 1.9% (0.064 mg/kg 20-HEDE), P < 0.05]. We further demonstrated that one 5-min period of ischemic preconditioning (IPC) reduced infarct size to a similar extent as that observed with the high doses of DDMS and 20-HEDE, and the higher dose of DDMS given simultaneously with IPC augmented the infarct size reduction [9.9 ± 2.8% (IPC) to 2.5 ± 1.4% (0.81 mg/kg DDMS), P < 0.05] to a greater degree than that observed with either treatment alone. These results suggest an important negative role for endogenous CYP ω-hydroxylases and their product, 20-HETE, to exacerbate myocardial injury in canine myocardium. Furthermore, for the first time, this study demonstrates that the effect of IPC and the inhibition of CYP ω-hydroxylase synthesis (DDMS) or its actions (20-HEDE) may have additive effects in protecting the canine heart from ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Objective The administration of preconditioned plasma collected during the late phase of preconditioning has been shown to reduce myocardial infarct size. This study aimed to investigate if preconditioned plasma could attenuate ventricular arrhythmias in a rat model in vivo. Methods Eighty rats were randomized to eight groups (10 rats/group). Two groups provided preconditioned or non-preconditioned plasma 48 h after transient limb ischaemia or the control protocol. Six groups of ischaemia-reperfusion (IR) rats received normal saline, non-preconditioned plasma, or preconditioned plasma, respectively, 1 h (groups A1, A2, A3) or 24 h (groups B1, B2, B3) before undergoing myocardial IR. Electrocardiograms were monitored using a BIOPAC system, and the incidence and duration of ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) were analysed. Results No significant differences existed in the incidence and duration of VT or VF among groups A1–A3 or in the incidence and duration of VT among groups B1–B3. However, there was a significantly lower incidence and shorter duration of VF in group B3 rats than in group B1 rats. Conclusion Preconditioned plasma collected during the late phase of preconditioning can reduce the incidence and duration of VF compared with normal saline, suggesting its anti-arrhythmic potential.
