Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of substance P on anoxia/reoxygenation (A/R) injury to cardiomyocytes of neonatal rats.Methods Cardiomyocytes of neonatal rats were isolated from Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 1-3 days,and were cultured in 6-well plates for 72 h.The cardiomyocytes were then assigned into 4 groups (n =3 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),A/R group,substance P group (group SP) and substance P + D-SP group (group SP + D-SP).The cells were cultured routinely for 6 h in group C and the cells were exposed to 99.9 % N2 in an incubator at 37 ℃ for 3 h followed by reoxygenation for 2 h in the other groups.The cells were incubated with substance P with the final concentration of 10-7 mol/L for 1 h before anoxia in group SP.The cells were incubated for 1 h with substance P with the final concentration of 10-7 mol/L and D-SP (a specific antagonist of neurokinin-1 receptor) with the final concentration of 10-6 mol/L before anoxia in group SP + D-SP.The apoptosis rate and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity were detected at the end of reoxygenation using TUNEL assay and LDH assay kit,respectively.Results Compared with C group,the apoptosis rate and LDH activity were significantly increased in A/R,SP and SP+ D-SP groups.Compared with A/R group,the apoptosis rate and LDH activity were significantly decreased in SP and SP + D-SP groups.Compared with SP group,the apoptosis rate and LDH activity were significantly increased in SP + D-SP group.Conclusion Substance P can attenuate A/R injury to cardiomyocytes of neonatal rats,and activation of neurokinin 1 receptors is involved in the mechanism.
