The opposite effects of nitric oxide donor,S‐nitrosoglutathione,on myocardial ischaemia/reperfusion injury in diabetic and non‐diabetic mice

Nitric oxide is a potent anti‐apoptotic and cardioprotective molecule in healthy animals. However, recent study demonstrates that overexpression of eNOS exacerbates the liver injury in diabetic animals. whether diabetes may also alter NO's biologic activity in ischaemic/reperfused heart remains unknown. The present experiment was designed to determine whether the nitric oxide donor, S‐nitrosoglutathione, may exert different effects on diabetic and non‐diabetic myocardial ischaemia/reperfusion (MI/R) injury. Diabetic state was induced in mice by multiple intraperitoneal injections of low‐dose streptozotocin (STZ). The control or diabetic mice were subjected to 30 minutes ischaemia and 3 or 24 hours reperfusion. At 10 minutes before reperfusion, diabetic and non‐diabetic mice were received an intraperitoneal injection of S‐nitrosoglutathione (GSNO, a nitric oxide donor, 1 μmol/kg). GSNO attenuated MI/R injury in non‐diabetic mice, as measured by improved cardiac function, reduced infarct size and decreased cardiomyocyte apoptosis. In contrast, GSNO failed to attenuate but, rather, aggravated the MI/R injury in diabetic mice. Mechanically, the diabetic heart exhibited an increased nitrative/oxidative stress level, as measured by peroxynitrite formation, compared with non‐diabetic mice. Co‐administration of GSNO with EUK134 (a peroxynitrite scavenger) or MnTE‐2‐PyP5 (a superoxide dismutase mimetic) or Apocynin (a NADPH oxidase inhibitor) 10 minutes before reperfusion significantly decreased the MI/R‐induced peroxynitrite formation and the MI/R injury. Collectively, the present study for the first time demonstrated that diabetes may cause superoxide overproduction, increase NO inactivation and peroxynitrite formation, and thus convert GSNO from a cardioprotective molecule to a cardiotoxic molecule.     

AMPK activator AICAR ameliorates ischaemia reperfusion injury in the rat kidney

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Renal ischaemia/reperfusion (RI/R) injury is a major cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) and an important determinant of long-term kidney dysfunction. AMP-kinase and histone deacetylase sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) regulate cellular metabolism and are activated during hypoxia. We investigated whether AMP-kinase activator AICAR (5-amino-4-imidazolecarboxamide riboside-1-β-D-ribofuranoside) ameliorates RI/R injury and whether SIRT1 is involved in the pathogenesis. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Eight-week-old Sprague Dawley rats were divided into five groups: (i) sham-operated group; (ii) I/R group (40 min bilateral ischaemia followed by 24 h of reperfusion; (iii) I/R group + AICAR 50 mg·kg(-1) i.v. given 60 min before operation; (iv). I/R group + AICAR 160 mg·kg(-1) i.v; (v) I/R group + AICAR 500 mg·kg(-1) i.v. Serum creatinine and urea levels were measured. Acute tubular necrosis (ATN), monocyte/macrophage infiltration and nitrotyrosine expression were scored. Kidney AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and SIRT1 expressions were measured. KEY RESULTS Highest dose of AICAR decreased serum creatinine and urea levels, attenuated I/R injury-induced nitrosative stress and monocyte/macrophage infiltration, and ameliorated the development of ATN. Kidney I/R injury was associated with decreased AMPK phosphorylation and a fivefold increase in kidney SIRT1 expression. AICAR increased pAMPK/AMPK ratio and prevented the I/R-induced increase in renal SIRT1 expression. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS AICAR protects against the development of ATN after kidney I/R injury. Activators of kidney AMP kinase may thus represent a novel therapeutic approach to patients susceptible to AKI and to those undergoing kidney transplantation. The present study also suggests a role for SIRT1 in the pathogenesis of RI/R injury.     

Preserved cardiac mitochondrial function and reduced ischaemia/reperfusion injury afforded by chronic continuous hypoxia: Role of opioid receptors

Chronic continuous normobaric hypoxia (CNH) increases cardiac tolerance to acute ischaemia/reperfusion injury. The objective of this study was to find out whether the cardioprotective effect of CNH mediated by opioid receptors is associated with preservation of mitochondrial function. Rats were adapted to CNH (12% oxygen) for 3 weeks. Isolated perfused hearts were subjected to 45 min of global ischaemia and 30 min of reperfusion; subgroups were pretreated with non‐selective opioid receptor antagonist naloxone (300 nmol/L) for 10 min. Cardiac contractile function, creatine kinase activity in coronary effluent, mitochondrial respiration rate, and calcium retention capacity were assessed. Adaptation to CNH decreased myocardial creatine kinase release during reperfusion and improved the post‐ischaemic recovery of contractile function, mitochondrial state 3 and uncoupled respiration rates, and calcium retention capacity compared to the normoxic group. These protective effects were completely abolished by naloxone. The contractile recovery positively correlated with state 3 respiration and calcium retention capacity. The results suggest that the preserved mitochondrial function contributes to the protected cardiac phenotype afforded by adaptation to CNH and point to an important role of opioid receptor activation.     

Stobadine protects rat kidney against ischaemia/reperfusion injury

1. Ischaemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, one of the main causes of acute renal failure, still needs satisfactory treatment for routine clinical application. Stobadine, a novel synthetic pyridoindole anti-oxidant, has the ability to reduce tissue injury induced by mechanisms involving reactive oxygen species during I/R. The aim of the present study was to determine the effects of stobadine on renal I/R injury. 2. Forty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups as follows: sham, I/R, stobadine treated and I/R + stobadine treated. Stobadine (2 mg/kg, i.v.) was given intravenously to two groups of rats. The stobadine-treated group was treated with stobadine following sham operation before the abdominal wall was closed, whereas the I/R + stobadine group received stobadine at the beginning of reperfusion. Renal I/R was achieved by occluding the renal arteries bilaterally for 40 min, followed by 6 h reperfusion. Immediately thereafter, blood was drawn and tissue samples were harvested to assess: (i) serum levels of blood urea nitrogen and creatinine; (ii) serum and/or tissue levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6PD), 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6-PGD), glutathione reductase (GR) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx); (iii) renal morphology; and (iv) immunohistochemical staining for P-selectin. 3. Stobadine was able to significantly attenuate the renal dysfunction as a result of renal I/R injury. Ischaemia-reperfusion resulted in a significant increase in serum and kidney MDA levels and a decrease in serum and kidney GSH. Stobadine treatment at the beginning of reperfusion attenuated both the increased MDA levels and decreased GSH secondary to I/R injury. In addition, the decreased G-6PD activity observed after I/R was significantly attenuated by stobadine treatment. Stobadine did not alter 6-PGD activity after I/R. Neither GR nor GPx activity was significantly changed in the I/R alone or the I/R + stobadine groups compared with the sham group. In addition, stobadine decreased the morphological deterioration and high P-selectin immunoreactivity secondary to renal I/R injury. 4. A pyridoindole anti-oxidant, stobadine exerts a renal protective effect in renal I/R injury, which is probably due to its radical-scavenging and anti-oxidant activities.

Riluzole protects against cardiac ischaemia and reperfusion damage via block of the persistent sodium current

Background and purpose:

Current strategies to ameliorate cardiac ischaemic and reperfusion damage, including block of the sodium-hydrogen exchanger, are therapeutically ineffective. Here we propose a different approach, block of the persistent sodium current (INaP).

Experimental approach:

Left ventricular pressure was measured as an index of functional deficit in isolated, Langendorff perfused, hearts from adult rats, subjected to 30 min global ischaemia and reperfusion with vehicle only (control) or riluzole (1–10 µM) in the perfusate. Cell shortening and intracellular Ca2+ concentrations [Ca2+]_i were measured in adult rat isolated myocytes subjected to hypoxia and re-oxygenation. The block of transient and persistent sodium currents by concentrations of riluzole between 0.01 and 100 µM were assessed in rat isolated myocytes using patch clamp techniques.

Key results:

In perfused hearts, riluzole produced a concentration-dependent cardioprotective action, with minor protection from 1 µM and produced rapid and almost complete recovery upon reperfusion from 3 and 10 µM. In isolated myocytes, riluzole at 3 and 10 µM greatly attenuated or prevented the hypoxia- and reperfusion-induced rise in [Ca2+]_i and the contractile deficit. In patch clamp experiments, riluzole blocked the persistent sodium current with an IC₅₀ of 2.7 µM, whereas the block of the transient sodium current was only apparent at concentrations above 30 µM.

Conclusions and implications:

Riluzole preferentially blocked INaP and was protective in cardiac ischaemia and reperfusion. Thus block of the persistent sodium current would be a viable method of ameliorating cardiac ischaemic and reperfusion damage.

Acute administration of cannabidiol in vivo suppresses ischaemia-induced cardiac arrhythmias and reduces infarct size when given at reperfusion

Background and purpose:

Cannabidiol (CBD) is a phytocannabinoid, with anti-apoptotic, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects and has recently been shown to exert a tissue sparing effect during chronic myocardial ischaemia and reperfusion (I/R). However, it is not known whether CBD is cardioprotective in the acute phase of I/R injury and the present studies tested this hypothesis.

Experimental approach:

Male Sprague-Dawley rats received either vehicle or CBD (10 or 50 µg·kg⁻¹ i.v.) 10 min before 30 min coronary artery occlusion or CBD (50 µg·kg⁻¹ i.v.) 10 min before reperfusion (2 h). The appearance of ventricular arrhythmias during the ischaemic and immediate post-reperfusion periods were recorded and the hearts excised for infarct size determination and assessment of mast cell degranulation. Arterial blood was withdrawn at the end of the reperfusion period to assess platelet aggregation in response to collagen.

Key results:

CBD reduced both the total number of ischaemia-induced arrhythmias and infarct size when administered prior to ischaemia, an effect that was dose-dependent. Infarct size was also reduced when CBD was given prior to reperfusion. CBD (50 µg·kg⁻¹ i.v.) given prior to ischaemia, but not at reperfusion, attenuated collagen-induced platelet aggregation compared with control, but had no effect on ischaemia-induced mast cell degranulation.

Conclusions and implications:

This study demonstrates that CBD is cardioprotective in the acute phase of I/R by both reducing ventricular arrhythmias and attenuating infarct size. The anti-arrhythmic effect, but not the tissue sparing effect, may be mediated through an inhibitory effect on platelet activation.     

Targeting reperfusion injury in acute myocardial infarction: a review of reperfusion injury pharmacotherapy

Introduction: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) (secondary to lethal ischemia–reperfusion [IR]) contributes to much of the mortality and morbidity from ischemic heart disease. Currently, the treatment for AMI is early reperfusion; however, this itself contributes to the final myocardial infarct size, in the form of what has been termed ‘lethal reperfusion injury’. Over the last few decades, the discovery of the phenomena of ischemic preconditioning and postconditioning, as well as remote preconditioning and remote postconditioning, along with significant advances in our understanding of the cardioprotective pathways underlying these phenomena, have provided the possibility of successful mechanical and pharmacological interventions against reperfusion injury.

Areas covered: This review summarizes the evidence from clinical trials evaluating pharmacological agents as adjuncts to standard reperfusion therapy for ST-elevation AMI.

Expert opinion: Reperfusion injury pharmacotherapy has moved from bench to bedside, with clinical evaluation and ongoing clinical trials providing us with valuable insights into the shortcomings of current research in establishing successful treatments for reducing reperfusion injury. There is a need to address some key issues that may be leading to lack of translation of cardioprotection seen in basic models to the clinical setting. These issues are discussed in the Expert opinion section.     

Effects of defibrotide,a novel oligodeoxyribonucleotide,on ischaemia and reperfusion injury of the rat liver

1. The purpose of this study was to investigate the protective effects of defibrotide, a single-stranded polydeoxyribonucleotide, on ischaemia-reperfusion injury to the liver using a rat model. 2. Ischaemia of the left and median lobes was created by total inflow occlusion for 30 min followed by 60 min of reperfusion. Hepatic injury was assessed by the release of liver enzymes (alanine transferase, ALT and lactic dehydrogenase, LDH). Hepatic oxidant stress was measured by superoxide production, lipid peroxidation and nitrite/nitrate formation. Leukocyte-endothelium interaction and Kupffer cell mobilization were quantified by measuring hepatic myeloperoxidase (MPO), polymorphonuclear leukocyte adherence to superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and immunostaining of Kupffer cell. 3. Defibrotide treatment resulted in a significant inhibition of postreperfusion superoxide generation, lipid peroxidation, serum ALT activity, serum LDH activity, MPO activity, serum nitrite/nitrate level, leukocyte adherence to SMA, and Kupffer cell mobilization, indicating a significant attenuation of hepatic dysfunction. 4. A significant correlation existed between liver ischaemia/reperfusion and hepatic injury, suggesting that liver ischaemia/reperfusion injury is mediated predominantly by generation of oxygen free radicals and mobilization of Kupffer cells. 5. We conclude that defibrotide significantly protects the liver against liver ischaemia/reperfusion injury by interfering with Kupffer cell mobilization and formation of oxygen free radicals. This study provides strong evidence that defibrotide has important beneficial effects on acute inflammatory tissue injury such as that occurring in the reperfusion of the ischaemic liver.     

Thymoquinone protects rat liver after partial hepatectomy under ischaemia/reperfusion through oxidative stress and endoplasmic reticulum stress prevention

Ischaemia reperfusion (I/R) is associated with liver injury and impaired regeneration during partial hepatectomy (PH). The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of thymoquinone (TQ), the active compound of essential oil obtained from Nigella sativa seeds, on rat liver after PH. Male Wistar rats were divided equally into four groups (n = 6) receiving an oral administration of either vehicle solution (sham and PH groups) or TQ at 30 mg/kg (TQ and TQ + PH groups) for 10 consecutive days. Then, rats underwent PH (70%) with 60 minutes of ischaemia followed by 24 hours of reperfusion (PH and TQ + PH groups). Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) activity and histopathological damage were determined. Also, antioxidant parameters, liver regeneration index, hepatic adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and apoptosis were assessed. In response to PH under I/R, liver damage was significantly alleviated by TQ treatment as evidenced by the decrease in ALT activity (P < .01) and histological findings (P < .001). In parallel, TQ preconditioning increased hepatic antioxidant capacities. Moreover, TQ improved mitochondrial function (ATP, P < .05), attenuated ER stress parameters and repressed the expression of apoptotic effectors. Taken together, our results suggest that TQ preconditioning could be an effective strategy to reduce liver injury after PH under I/R. The protective effects were mediated by the increase of antioxidant capacities and the decrease of ER stress and apoptosis.

Enhancement of amlodipine cardioprotection by quercetin in ischaemia/reperfusion injury in rats

Objectives To investigate the possible modification of the cardioprotective effect of amlodipine when co‐administered with quercetin in myocardial ischaemia/reperfusion‐induced functional, metabolic and cellular alterations in rats. Methods Oral doses of amlodipine (15 mg/kg) and quercetin (5 mg/kg), alone or in combination, were administered once daily for 1 week. Rats were then subjected to myocardial ischaemia/reperfusion (35_min/10_min). Heart rates and ventricular arrhythmias were recorded during ischaemia/reperfusion progress. At the end of reperfusion, activities of plasma creatine kinase (CK) and cardiac myeloperoxidase were determined. In addition, cardiac contents of lactate, ATP, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), reduced glutathione (GSH) and total nitrate/nitrite (NO_x) were estimated. Finally, histological examination was performed to visualize the protective cellular effects of different pretreatments. Key findings Combined therapy provided significant improvement in the amlodipine effect toward preserving cardiac electrophysiologic functions, ATP and GSH contents as well as reducing the elevated plasma CK, cardiac TBARS and NO_x contents. Conclusion Quercetin could add benefits to the cardioprotective effect of amlodipine against injury induced in the heart by ischaemia/reperfusion.     

Mycophenolate mofetil improves renal haemodynamics,microvascular oxygenation,and inflammation in a rat model of supra‐renal aortic clamping‐mediated renal ischaemia reperfusion injury

Ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) is one of the main causes of acute kidney injury (AKI), which is characterized by sterile inflammation and oxidative stress. Immune cell activation can provoke overproduction of inflammatory mediators and reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to perturbation of the microcirculation and tissue oxygenation associated with local and remote tissue injury. This study investigated whether the clinically employed immunosuppressant mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) was able to reduce I/R‐induced renal oxygenation defects and oxidative stress by preventing sterile inflammation. Rats were divided into three groups (n=6/group): (1) a sham‐operated control group; (2) a group subjected to renal I/R alone (I/R); and (3) a group subjected to I/R and MMF treatment (20 mg/kg prior to I/R) (I/R+MMF). Ischaemia was induced by a vascular occluder placed on the abdominal aorta for 30 minutes, followed by 120 minutes of reperfusion. Renal I/R deteriorated renal oxygenation (P<.001) and oxygen delivery (P<.01), reduced creatinine clearance (P<.01) and tubular sodium reabsorption (P<.001), and increased iNOS, renal tissue injury markers (P<.001), and IL‐6 (P<.001). Oral MMF administration prior to insult restored renal cortical oxygenation (P<.05) and iNOS, renal injury markers, and inflammation parameters (P<.001) to near‐baseline levels without affecting renal function. MMF exerted a prophylactic effect on renal microvascular oxygenation and abrogated tissue inflammation and renal injury following lower body I/R‐induced AKI. These findings may have clinical implications during major vascular or renal transplant surgery.     

Effect of intestinal ischaemia/reperfusion on P‐glycoprotein‐mediated ileal excretion of rhodamine 123 in the rat

Objectives We have shown that ischaemia/reperfusion in the small intestine at an early phase, such as 1 h after reperfusion, induced not only functional changes in the membrane, such as P‐glycoprotein (P‐gp) dysfunction, but also decreased expression of P‐gp protein and mdr1a mRNA. In the present study we examined whether intestinal ischaemia/reperfusion modifies the P‐gp‐mediated ileal excretion transport system in rats beyond 1 h after reperfusion. Methods To evaluate the contribution of P‐gp‐mediated transport to the ileal excretion of rhodamine 123, we used Western blotting to measure the expression of P‐gp protein levels isolated from the ileum at different reperfusion times after 60 min of ischaemia. We also measured the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) mRNA using real‐time RT‐PCR. Key findings Ileal excretion of rhodamine 123 decreased at 3 h after reperfusion and had recovered at 24 h. Changes in villi structure at 3 h and its recovery at 24 h were also observed. Verapamil, a competitive inhibitor of P‐gp, significantly inhibited ileal clearance of rhodamine 123 to the lumen at 24 h after reperfusion, suggesting that P‐gp was working at this time. These results suggest that intestinal ischaemia/reperfusion‐induced decrease in P‐gp‐mediated ileal excretion of rhodamine 123 was probably due to impaired P‐gp‐mediated transport. Levels of P‐gp protein and iNOS mRNA in the ileum decreased 3 h after ischaemia/reperfusion and returned to control levels after 24 h. Conclusions These findings suggest that intestinal ischaemia/reperfusion markedly decreases P‐gp‐mediated ileal excretion of rhodamine 123, probably by decreasing the expression of P‐gp protein, which is likely to be due to increased lipid peroxidation via iNOS.
