Objective. With the increasing incidence of diabetes mellitus (DM) combined with myocardial ischemia, how to reduce myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in DM patients has become a major problem faced by clinicians. We investigated the therapeutic effects of dexmedetomidine (DEX) on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in DM rats and its effect on endoplasmic reticulum stress. Methods. SD rats with SPF grade were randomly divided into 6 groups: non-DM rats were divided into the sham operation group (NDM-S group), ischemia-reperfusion group (NDM-IR group), and dexmedetomidine group (NDM-DEX group); DM rats were divided into the diabetic sham operation group (DM-S group), diabetes-reperfusion group (DM-IR group), and diabetes-dexmedetomidine (DM-DEX) group, with 10 rats in each group. Then the effects of DEX on the changes of CK-MB and cTnT levels were examined. The effects of myocardial pathological damage and myocardial infarct size were detected. The apoptosis of cardiomyocytes was detected. The apoptosis of heart tissue cells was also tested through the expressions of cleaved caspase-3, Bcl-2, and Bax proteins. The expression of endoplasmic reticulum stress-related proteins GRP78, CHOP, ERO1α, ERO1β, and PDI was examined. The hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury cell model was established, the effects of DEX, DEX+ ERS agonist on cell apoptosis was also detected. Results. The myocardial damage of DM-IR was more severe than that of NDM-IR rats. DEX could reduce the expression of CK-MB and cTnT, reduce pathological damage, and reduce scar formation and improve fibrosis. DEX can reduce the expression of GRP78, CHOP, ERO1α, ERO1β, and PDI proteins in vivo and in vitro. And the effect of DEX on cell apoptosis could be blocked by ERS agonist. Conclusion. DEX attenuates myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in DM rats and H/R injury cell, which is associated with the reduction of ERS-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis.

Abstract Background: Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (I/R) has been improved with drugs and effective reperfusion, but it still cannot be prevented. We compared the effects of renal denervation (RDN) and angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitors (ARNIs) on cardiomyocyte apoptosis after I/R to explore whether RDN can reduce cardiomyocyte apoptosis by improving endoplasmic reticulum stress.Methods: Sixty male specific pathogen free (SPF) Wister rats were randomly divided into six groups.(n=6):(a) normal; (b) sham; (c) I/R; (d) RDN; (e) I/R+RDN and (f) I/R+ARNI. We established the I/R rat model by ligating the left anterior descending artery. Rats were exposed tThe renal artery was exposed and then smeared phenol on the vessel for chemical ablation. The I/R+ARNI group received ARNIs for 2 weeks until killed. We also collected the cardiac tissues and blood serum to determine I/R-related indicators and analyze the potential mechanisms involved.Results: The levels of Norepinephrine (NE), Ang II, and aldosterone (ALD)increased significantly in the I/R group but decreased significantly after RDN and ARNI intervention. The expression of Bax, caspase-3, CHOP, PERK, and ATF4 protein was significantly increased in the I/R group, which compared to other groups, and the level of CHOP, PERK, and ATF4 gene expression increased. After RDN intervention, these expression levels recovered to varying degrees. Conclusion: Our results provide new evidence that RDN ameliorates cardiomyocyte apoptosis in I/R. The effect of RDN may be associated with regulating the endoplasmic reticulum stress PERK/ATF4 signaling pathway.
