Involvement of alpha-calcitonin gene-related peptide in heat stress-induced delayed preconditioning in rat hearts

1. Previous studies have shown that hyperthermia is capable of activating capsaicin-sensitive sensory nerves and stimulating the release of neurotransmitters from their peripheral terminals. Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) has recently been found to participate in delayed cardioprotection in rat isolated hearts. 2. The purpose of the present study was to explore whether the delayed cardioprotection by heat stress in vivo involves the expression and release of CGRP. 3. Sprague-Dawley rats were pretreated with whole-body hyperthermia (rectal 42 degrees C) for 15 min, 24 h before the experiments and then the left main coronary artery of rat hearts was subjected to a 45 min occlusion followed by 3 h reperfusion. The degree of myocardial injury was evaluated by measurement of infarct size and plasma creatine kinase (CK) activity. The plasma levels of CGRP and expression of CGRP (alpha and beta isoforms) mRNA in lumbar dorsal root ganglia at 4, 8, 16 or 24 h after heat stress treatment were measured. 4. Pretreatment with hyperthermia significantly reduced infarct size and CK release. Heat stress also significantly increased plasma concentrations of CGRP and the expression of alpha-CGRP mRNA, but not beta-CGRP mRNA. The effect of heat stress was completely abolished by pretreatment with capsaicin (50 mg/kg, s.c.), which selectively depletes transmitters in capsaicin-sensitive sensory nerves. 5. In summary, the results suggest that the delayed cardioprotection by heat stress involves the synthesis and release of CGRP and that the protection is mainly mediated by the alpha-CGRP isoform.     

降钙素基因相关肽介导硝酸甘油增强心停搏液的保护作用(英文)

目的:研究硝酸甘油增强心停搏液的保护作用与促进降钙素基因相关肽释放的关系。方法:在StThomas Hospital心停搏液条件下,离体心脏低温缺血4h后再灌40min,记录心率、冠脉流量及心功能,并测定灌注液中降钙素基因相关肽(CGRP)的浓度及肌酸激酶(CK)的释放量。结果:硝酸甘油(0.1或1μmol/L)改善心功能,降低CK释放,同时促进CGRP的释放。CGRP(5或10nmol/L)也改善心功能及降低CK释放。预先用辣椒素耗竭感觉神经递质后。硝酸甘油的心肌保护和升高灌注液中CGRP浓度作用消失。选择性CGRP受体拮抗剂CGRP_(8-37)也能取消硝酸甘油的心肌保护作用。格列苯脲对硝酸甘油和CGRP的心保护作用均无影响。结论:硝酸甘油增强心停搏液的保护作用是通过内源性CGRP所介导,其保护作用与ATP敏感的钾通道无关。     

Monophosphoryl lipid A-induced delayed preconditioning is mediated by calcitonin gene-related peptide

The delayed preconditioning of the heart by monophosphoryl lipid A is mediated by endogenous nitric oxide (NO), and the cardioprotection afforded by nitroglycerin is related to stimulation of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) release. The objective of this study was to explore whether improvement of preservation with cardioplegia by monophosphoryl lipid A is mediated by CGRP. In addition, we examined the effect of monophosphoryl lipid A on the tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) content of myocardial tissues. The isolated rat heart was perfused in the Langendorff mode. Heart rate, coronary flow, left-ventricular pressure, and its first derivatives (+/-dp/dt(max)) were recorded, and plasma levels of NO and CGRP, the release of creatine kinase in coronary effluent and the content of TNF-alpha in myocardial tissues were measured. Hypothermic ischemia for 4 h caused a decline in cardiac function, and an increase in the release of creatine kinase and in the content of TNF-alpha. Pretreatment with monophosphoryl lipid A (500 microg/kg, i.p.) for 24 h improved the recovery of cardiac function and reduced the release of creatine kinase concomitantly with a decrease in the content of cardiac TNF-alpha. Monophosphoryl lipid A markedly increased plasma concentrations of CGRP and NO. After pretreatment with L-nitroarginine methyl ester (L-NAME), the cardioprotection and the increased release of NO and CGRP induced by monophosphoryl lipid A were abolished. Capsaicin also abolished the cardioprotection and the increased release of CGRP induced by monophosphoryl lipid A, but did not affect the content of NO. The results suggest that monophosphoryl lipid A-induced preconditioning enhances preservation with cardioplegia and that the protective effects of monophosphoryl lipid A are related to stimulation of CGRP release.     

Role of calcitonin gene-related peptide in ischaemic preconditioning in diabetic rat hearts

1. It has been suggested that calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is involved in the protection provided by ischaemic preconditioning in rat hearts and that ischaemic preconditioning is absent in diabetic rat hearts. 2. In the present study, we tested the relationship between sensory nerve function and ischaemic preconditioning in diabetic rats. 3. In 4- and 8-week diabetic rats and age-matched non- diabetic controls, 30 min global ischaemia and 40 min reperfusion caused a significant decrease in cardiac function and a marked increase in creatine kinase (CK) release. Ischaemic preconditioning, by three cycles of 5 min ischaemia and 5 min reperfusion, improved the recovery of cardiac function and decreased CK release during reperfusion in 4-week diabetic rat hearts. However, the cardioprotection afforded by ischaemic preconditioning was lost in 8-week diabetic rat hearts. Pretreatment with CGRP for 5 min also significantly improved the recovery of cardiac function and decreased CK release in rats subjected to 4 or 8 weeks of diabetes. 4. The content of CGRP in the coronary effluent during ischaemic preconditioning was significantly increased in 4-week diabetic rat hearts (P < 0.05). However, only a slight increase in the release of CGRP was shown in 8-week diabetic rat hearts (P > 0.05). 5. In summary, the present results suggest that the protection afforded by ischaemic preconditioning is attenuated in diabetic rats and that the change may be related to the reduction in CGRP release in diabetic rat hearts.     

Early and delayed cardioprotection by heat stress is mediated by calcitonin gene-related peptide

Brief ischaemia or heat stress protects the myocardium against ischaemia-reperfusion injury. Heat stimulus evokes release of sensory nerve transmitters, including calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP). Since CGRP has been shown to play an important role in the mediation of ischaemic preconditioning, the present study examined whether early or delayed preconditioning induced by retrograde hyperthermic perfusion in vitro or by whole-body hyperthemia in vivo also involves endogenous CGRP. Isolated rat hearts were perfused in the Langendorff mode and subjected to 30 min global ischaemia and 30 min reperfusion. Heart rate, coronary flow, left ventricular pressure and its first derivatives (±dp/dt) were recorded and the CGRP-like immunoreactivity (CGRP-LI) content and the release of creatine kinase (CK) during reperfusion were measured. Retrograde hyperthermic perfusion (42 °C) for 5 min improved the recovery of cardiac function, decreased the release of CK and elevated the content of CGRP-LI in the coronary effluent. CGRP_8–37 (10^–7 mol/l), a selective CGRP receptor antagonist, abolished the cardioprotection by heat stress. Pretreatment with capsaicin (50 mg/kg s.c.), which specifically depletes sensory nerve transmitter content, abolished both the cardioprotection and the increased release of CGRP-LI. Whole-body hyperthermia (42 °C for 15 min) caused an increase in the plasma concentration of CGRP-LI. Early or delayed protection was shown in the hearts obtained from the animals subjected to whole-body hyperthermia 10 min or 48 h before the experiments. The early or delayed protection by heat stress was also abolished by pretreatment with capsaicin. The present study suggests that, in the rat, the early and delayed cardioprotection induced by heat stress involves endogenous CGRP. Received: 31 December 1998 / Accepted: 6 April 1999
