To identify the core structure of 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB) responsible for the anti-oxidative and protective effect on the ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced heart injury, various 2-APB analogues were analyzed, and several antioxidant assays were performed. Cell viability was determined using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Myocardial infarct size was quantified using triphenyl tetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining. The levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and cleaved-caspase-3 protein were evaluated as an indicator for the anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effect, respectively. Our data show that 2-APB, diphenylborinic anhydride (DPBA) and 3-(diphenylphosphino)-1-propylamine (DP3A) all exerted the anti-oxidative activity, but only 2-APB and DPBA can scavenge H2O2. 2-APB and DPBA can potently inhibit hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)- and hypoxanthine/xanthine oxidase (HX/XOD)-induced increases in intracellular H2O2 and H9c2 cell death. 2-APB and DPBA were able to decrease the I/R-induced adult rat cardiomyocytes death, myocardial infarct size, and the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB). Our results suggest that the two benzene rings with a boron atom comprise the core structure of 2-APB responsible for the anti-oxidative effect mediated through the reaction with H2O2 and generation of phenolic compounds, which in turn reduced the I/R-induced oxidative stress and injury in the rat heart.

Background: Reduction of irreversible myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) remains important. One of the promising strategies aimed at myocardial IRI alleviation is modulation of programmed cell death (PCD) pathways. PCD mode displaying morphological characteristics of necrosis, and amenable to pharmacological manipulation is referred to as necroptosis. Necroptosis inhibitor necrostatin-1 has been shown to exert cardio- and neuroprotective effects. In the present work, the effect of necrostatin-7 (Nec-7) on myocardial injury in the rat model of permanent coronary occlusion was studied. Methods: Male Wistar rats (n = 19) were anesthetized with pentobarbital. The animals were subjected to permanent coronary occlusion (PCO) and intraperitoneal (i.p.) Nec-7 administration 1 h prior to PCO at a dose of 14.5 mg/kg in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or DMSO alone at a dose of 3.1 g/kg. Control rats were treated with saline. Three weeks after PCO, serum levels of NT-proBNP were measured, and histological outcomes were assessed. The infarct size (IS, %) and infarct length (IL, mm) were analyzed morphometrically. Results: DMSO caused significant reduction in serum NT-proBNP level vs. Control (0.3 ± 0.19 vs. 0.5 ± 0.22 ng/ml, p = 0.001), while Nec-7 further decreased NT-proBNP level in comparison with DMSO (0.2 ± 0.14 ng/ml, p = 0.008 vs. DMSO). Compared with Control, DMSO reduced adverse left ventricular remodeling, as evidenced by reduction in IS (16.0 ± 2.92 and 12.9 ± 1.72%, p = 0.015) and IL (6.2 ± 0.89 and 3.8 ± 0.35 mm, p = 0.008). Nec-7 treatment resulted in additional reduction of both IS and IL vs. DMSO group (9.0 ± 4.91 % and 2.9 ± 1.62 mm, respectively; p = 0.013 and p = 0.011 vs. DMSO, respectively). Conclusion: Nec-7 has cardioprotective properties, reducing myocardial wall stress and myocardial remodeling in the rat model of myocardial infarction.

Inhalational Anesthetic

Inhalational anesthetic-induced preconditioning (APC) has been shown to reduce infarct size and attenuate contractile dysfunction caused by myocardial ischemia. Only a few studies have reported the effects of APC on arrhythmias during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, focusing exclusively on reperfusion. Accordingly, the aim of the present study was to examine the influence of APC on ventricular arrhythmias evoked by regional no-flow ischemia. APC was induced in adult male Wistar rats by 12-min exposures to two different concentrations (0.5 and 1.0 MAC) of isoflurane followed by 30-min wash-out periods. Ventricular arrhythmias were assessed in the isolated perfused hearts during a 45-min regional ischemia and a subsequent 15-min reperfusion. Myocardial infarct size was determined after an additional 45 min of reperfusion. The incidence, severity and duration of ventricular arrhythmias during ischemia were markedly reduced by APC. The higher concentration of isoflurane had a larger effect on the incidence of ventricular fibrillation than the lower concentration. The incidence of ventricular tachycardia and reversible ventricular fibrillation during reperfusion was also significantly reduced by APC; the same was true for myocardial infarct size. In conclusion, we have shown that preconditioning with isoflurane confers profound protection against myocardial ischemia- and reperfusion-induced arrhythmias and lethal myocardial injury.

Reactive Aldehydes

Toxic reactive aldehydes are formed during ischemia-reperfusion. The ion channel transient receptor potential ankryin 1 (TRPA1) is irreversibly modified by reactive aldehydes which can cause calcium influx and cell death. Here we tested whether topically applied creams containing a reversible TRPA1 agonist could reduce myocardial infarct size. Male Sprague-Dawley rats 8-10 weeks age were subjected to an in vivo myocardial ischemia-reperfusion model of 30 minutes of left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery ischemia followed by 2 hours reperfusion. Prior to ischemia, rats were untreated or had 1g of cream applied to the abdomen. The creams tested were IcyHot, Bengay, Tiger Balm, or preparation H (Fig. 1A). Hearts were negatively stained for the area at risk and the infarct size was determined by using TTC staining (Fig. 1B). A subset of rodents prior to receiving IcyHot also received an intravenous bolus of the TRPA1 antagonist TCS-5861528 (1mg/kg) or AP-18 (1mg/kg). Interestingly, both IcyHot and Bengay reduced myocardial infarct size compared to untreated rodents (Fig. 1C and 1D IcyHot: 41±3%*, Bengay: 50±2%* versus control 62±1%, n=6/group, *P<0.001). Both preparation H and Tiger Balm failed to reduce myocardial infarct size (Tiger Balm: 63±2%, preparation H 59±2%). Giving a TRPA1 antagonist prior to IcyHot also blocked the reduction in infarct size. Our additional data also indicates the methyl salicylate (mint) in IcyHot and Bengay is the agent that limits myocardial infarct size. Since IcyHot and Bengay are safely used by humans, targeting TRPA1 by using products such as these could be quickly translatable and widely used to reduce ischemia-reperfusion injury.
