Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the influences of Pinocembrin on inflammatory injury in rats with acute myocardial in-farction(AMI)by regulating TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway.Methods:The AMI model was established by coronary liga-tion,and the rats were grouped into Sham group,AMI group,Pinocembrin group(5 mg/kg tail vein injection),TLR4 inhibitor group(TAK-242 group,2.0 mg/kg tail vein injection),the levels of cardiac function indexes(LVEF,LVEDD,LVESD,FS)and serum LDH,cTnⅠ,IL-6,IL-β and TNF-α were detected in rats,TTC staining,HE staining and Masson staining were applied to observe myocardial infarction and myocardial histopathological changes in rats,cardiomyocyte apoptosis was detected by TUNEL method,im-munohistochemistry and Western blot were applied to detect TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway-related proteins in rat myocardial tissue.Results:Compared with Sham group,the myocardial infarction area increased,the number of myocardial cells decreased,some myo-cardial fibers were broken,inflammatory cells infiltrated,collagen fibers increased,and the apoptosis rate was obviously increased in AMI group(P<0.05),LVEDD,LVESD,serum LDH,cTnⅠ,IL-6,IL-β,TNF-α levels,myocardial tissue TLR4,MyD88,p-NF-κB p65,NLRP3,Caspase-1 expression levels were obviously increased(P<0.05),while LVEF and FS were obviously decreased(P<0.05);compared with AMI group,the myocardial infarction area of the Pinocembrin group and the TAK-242 group were reduced,the cell damage and inflammatory infiltration were reduced,the necrotic cells were obviously reduced,and the apoptosis rate was obvious-ly reduced(P<0.05),LVEDD,LVESD,serum LDH,cTnⅠ,IL-6,IL-β,TNF-α levels,myocardial tissue TLR4,MyD88,p-NF-κB p65,NLRP3,Caspase-1 expression levels were decreased(P<0.05),LVEF and FS were obviously increased(P<0.05);there was no obvious difference in each index between Pinocembrin group and TAK-242 group(P>0.05).Conclusion:Pinocembrin may at-tenuate myocardial inflammatory injury caused by AMI by inhibiting TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway.
