Abstract:
AIM:From the perspective of regulating mitochondrial complex I activity by DJ-1 protein,this study aims to explore the mechanism of DJ-1-mediated resveratrol(RES)preconditioning in protecting against oxidative stress injury induced by myocardial ischemia-reperfusion(I/R)in rats.METHODS:After intramyocardial injection of lentivirus carrying DJ-1 shRNA(sh-DJ-1)or negative control(NC)shRNA,the myocardial I/R model was constructed by ligating the left anterior descending branch of the rat coronary artery.Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were randomly divided in-to 6 groups:sham group,I/R group,RES+I/R group,NC+RES+I/R group,sh-DJ-1+RES+I/R group,and IACS-010759(mitochondrial complex I inhibitor)+RES+I/R group,with 10 rats in each group.The rats in RES treatment groups were given RES(20 mg/kg)via gavage for 7 d prior to the myocardial I/R modeling,once daily.Moreover,the rats in sham and I/R groups received an equivalent volume of normal saline via gavage.Myocardial infarction area and cardiac function were assessed by TTC staining and echocardiography,respectively.The MitoSOX fluorescent probe was used to detect levels of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species(ROS)in the myocardium.The levels of malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide dis-mutase(SOD)and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)in the serum were detected using kits.Western blot and co-immunopre-cipitation assays were used to observe the interaction between DJ-1 and the two subunits,ND-1 and NDUFA4,of the mito-chondrial complex I.RESULTS:Compared with I/R group,RES pretreatment significantly reduced the myocardial in-farction area,mitochondrial ROS levels,serum LDH activity,and serum MDA content(P<0.01).It also elevated left ventricular ejection fraction,left ventricular fractional shortening and serum SOD activity(P<0.01).Pretreatment with RES increased the expression and mitochondrial translocation of DJ-1(P<0.01),promoted the interaction between DJ-1 and ND-1/NDUFA4,which in turn protected the activity of mitochondrial complex I(P<0.01).However,when the ex-pression of DJ-1 was suppressed,the protective effects of RES against myocardial I/R injury were significantly inhibited compared with RES+I/R group(P<0.05 or P<0.01).CONCLUSION:Pretreatment with RES increases the expression and mitochondrial translocation of DJ-1,and facilitates the interaction of DJ-1 with ND1 and NDUFA4 subunits of mito-chondrial complex I,thus preserving the activity of mitochondrial complex I and attenuating myocardial I/R-induced oxida-tive stress damage.
