NO介导TNF-α诱导的培养大鼠缺氧/复氧心肌细胞的保护作用

目的:研究一氧化氮(NO)在肿瘤坏死因子α(TNF-α)诱导的缺氧/复氧心肌细胞的保护作用。方法:在培养的大鼠乳鼠心肌细胞上,建立缺氧/复氧模型,测定复氧后培养液中乳酸脱氢酶(LDH)的释放量和细胞内锰超氧化物歧化酶(Mn-SOD)活性。结果:(1)用TNF-α(10⁵U/L)预处理,缺氧/复氧后心肌细胞内Mn-SOD活性增高、LDH释放量减少;(2)NO供体硝普钠(SNP)(5μmol/L)和前体L-精氨酸(L-Arg)(5mmol/L)预处理心肌细胞3h,缺氧/复氧后细胞内Mn-SOD活性增高、LDH释放量减少,用Nω-硝基-L-精氨酸甲酯(L-NAME)(100μmol/L)预处理减弱了TNF-α的抑制缺氧/复氧心肌细胞LDH释放和诱导Mn-SOD活性增高的作用;(3)可溶性鸟苷酸环化酶(sGC)抑制剂ODQ(10μmol/L)和CPK抑制剂chelerythrine(5μmol/L)可分别减弱SNP、L-Arg和TNF-α对缺氧/复氧心肌细胞的保护作用;(4)TNF-α对缺氧/复氧心肌细胞的保护作用可被抗氧化剂2-巯基丙酰氨基乙酸(2-MPG,400μmol/L)削弱,但是酪氨酸蛋白激酶(TK)抑制剂4,5,7-三羟基异黄酮(genistein,50μmol/L)预处理对TNF-α诱导的心肌缺氧/复氧保护无影响。结论:NO参与TNF-α对缺氧/复氧损伤心肌细胞的保护作用,PKC和SGC可能为其下游信号途径成分。

Nitric oxide-mediated the cardioprotection of tumor necrosis factor-alpha on cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes during hypoxia/reoxygenation

AIM: To investigate the role of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) and protein kinase C (PKC) signaling in tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)-induced cardioprotection against hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury. METHODS: Neonatal rat ventricular myocytes were pretreated with TNF-α or sodium nitroprusside (SNP) or L-arginine (L-Arg), respectively, for 12 h and then subjected to continuous hypoxia for 12 h, followed by reoxygenation for 6 h. The manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) activity of the cells was measured after H/R. Myocyte injury was determined by the release of lactic dehydrogenase (LDH). RESULTS: TNF-α (10⁵ U/L) significantly increased the Mn-SOD activity and decreased release of LDH from ventricular myocytes. The cardioprotection against H/R injury was induced by the pretreatment with SNP (5 μmol/L) or L-Arg (5 mmol/L), which was blocked by ODQ (10 μmol/L), the specific sGC inhibitor, and Chel (5 μmol/L), the specific PKC inhibitor. Pretreatment with L-NAME (100 μmol/L), ODQ, Chel, antoxidant 2-MPG (400 μmol/L) or tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein (50 μmol/L) attenuated the increased Mn-SOD activity and reduced LDH level induced by TNF-α. CONCLUSION: The results suggest that NO may play a role in TNF-α-induced cardioprotection, which is mediated by sGC and PKC.
