PURPOSE: Adequate tissue oxygenation is essential for healing. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has potential clinical applications to treat ischemic pathologies, however the exact nature of any protective effects are unclear at present. We therefore investigated the potential role of HBOT in modulating the ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury response in intestinal model of I/R injury. METHODS: Male Wistar rats were subjected to surgery for the induction of intestinal ischemia followed by reperfusion. HBOT was provided before and/or after intestinal ischemia. Cell viability in the intestinal tissue was assessed using the MTT assay and by measuring serum malondealdehyde (MDA). Microvascular density and apoptosis were evaluated by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: The results indicate that HBOT treatment pre- and post-ischemia reduces lesion size to the intestinal tissue. This treatment increases cell viability and reduces the activation of caspase-3, which is associated with increased number of tissue CD34 cells and enhanced VEGF expression. CONCLUSION: The hyperbaric oxygen therapy can limit tissue damage due to ischemia/reperfusion injury, by inducing reparative signaling pathways.

AbstractHistone/protein deacetylases (HDAC) 1 and 2 are typically viewed as structurally and functionally similar enzymes present within various co-regulatory complexes. We tested differential effects of these isoforms in renal ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) using inducible knockout mice and found no significant change in ischemic tolerance with HDAC1 deletion, but mitigation of ischemic injury with HDAC2 deletion. Restriction of HDAC2 deletion to the kidney via transplantation or PAX8-controlled proximal renal tubule-specific Cre resulted in renal IRI protection. Pharmacologic inhibition of HDAC2 increased histone acetylation in the kidney but did not extend renal protection. Protein analysis demonstrated increased HDAC1-associated CoREST protein in HDAC2-/- versus WT cells, suggesting that in the absence of HDAC2, increased CoREST complex occupancy of HDAC1 can stabilize this complex. In vivo administration of a CoREST inhibitor exacerbated renal injury in WT mice and eliminated the benefit of HDAC2 deletion. Gene expression analysis of endothelin showed decreased endothelin levels in HDAC2 deletion. These data demonstrate that contrasting effects of HDAC1 and 2 on CoREST complex stability within renal tubules can affect outcomes of renal IRI and implicate endothelin as a potential downstream mediator.
