Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) is a phenomenon that reperfusion leads to irreversible damage to the myocardium and increases mortality in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients. There is no effective drug to treat MIRI. Tubeimoside I (TBM) is a triterpenoid saponin purified from Chinese traditional medicine tubeimu. In this study, 4 mg/kg TBM was given to mice intraperitoneally at 15 min after ischemia. And TBM treatment improved postischemic cardiac function, decreased infarct size, diminished lactate dehydrogenase release, ameliorated oxidative stress, and reduced apoptotic index. Notably, ischemia-reperfusion induced a significant decrease in cardiac SIRT3 expression and activity, while TBM treatment upregulated SIRT3’s expression and activity. However, the cardioprotective effects of TBM were largely abolished by a SIRT3 inhibitor 3-(1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl) pyridine (3-TYP). This suggests that SIRT3 plays an essential role in TBM’s cardioprotective effects. In vitro, TBM also protected H9c2 cells against simulated ischemia/reperfusion (SIR) injury by attenuating oxidative stress and apoptosis, and siSIRT3 diminished its protective effects. Taken together, our results demonstrate for the first time that TBM protects against MIRI through SIRT3-dependent regulation of oxidative stress and apoptosis. TBM might be a potential drug candidate for MIRI treatment.

The cardioprotective effects of XST in hearts with ischemic/reperfusion injury may be attributed to the promotion of PDH-mediated aerobic metabolism and its anti-oxidative stress properties.

Abstract Background Myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury (MIRI) is defined as tissue injury in the pathological process of progressive aggravation in ischemic myocardium after the occurrence of acute coronary artery occlusion. Research has documented the involvement of microRNAs (miRs) in MIRI. However, there is obscure information about the role of miR-130a-5p in MIRI. Herein, this study aims to investigate the effect of miR-130a-5p on MIRI. Methods MIRI mouse models were established. Then, the cardiac function and hemodynamics were detected using ultrasonography and multiconductive physiological recorder. Functional assays in miR-130a-5p were adopted to test the degrees of oxidative stress, mitochondrial functions, inflammation and apoptosis. Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining was performed to validate the myocardial injury in mice. Reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was employed to assess the expression patterns of miR-130a-5p, high mobility group box (HMGB)2 and NF-κB. Then, dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was performed to elucidate the targeting relation between miR-130a-5p and HMGB2. Results Disrupted structural arrangement in MIRI mouse models was evident from HE staining. RT-qPCR revealed that overexpressed miR-130a-5p alleviated MIRI, MIRI-induced oxidative stress and mitochondrial disorder in the mice. Next, the targeting relation between miR-130a-5p and HMGB2 was ascertained. Overexpressed HMGB2 annulled the protective effects of miR-130a-5p in MIRI mice. Additionally, miR-130a-5p targets HMGB2 to downregulate the nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) axis, mitigating the inflammatory injury induced by MIRI. Conclusion Our study demonstrated that miR-130a-5p suppresses MIRI by down-regulating the HMGB2/NF-κB axis. This investigation may provide novel insights for development of MIRI treatments.

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.
