Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effect of remote ischemic post-conditioning (RIPoC) on oxidation/reduction response, energy metabolism and inlfammatory reaction of ischemic myocardial tissue in rats with ischemic reperfusion (IR) injury.
Methods:IR model was established by 30 min left anterior descending (LAD) artery occlusion followed by 120 min reperfusion, conditioning was defined as 3 cycles of 30 seconds ischemia followed by 30 seconds reperfusion in adult rats. The rats were divided into 5 groups:①ischemic pre-conditioning (IPC) group, the rats received the conditioning prior to IR treatment,②ischemic post-conditioning (IPoC) group, the rats received 30 min LAD occlusion followed by conditioning at the beginning of 120 min reperfusion, ③ remote ischemic post-conditioning(RIPoC) group, the rats received 30 min LAD occlusion, followed by femoral artery conditioning at the beginning of 120 min reperfusion, ④ IR group, ⑤ Sham group. n=8 in each group.Ischemic myocardial tissue was collected at the end of experiment, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity was assayed by xanthine oxidase method,malondialdehyde (MDA) content was examined by thiobarbituric acid method, myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity was determined by chemistry colorimetric method, adenosine triphosphate(ATP)amount was measured by bioluminescence method;expressions of myocardial stromal cell derived factor-1 (SDF-1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), mitochondrial function related genes Ndufa2, Ndufa4, Cox4il and Cox7a2 were evaluated by real time quantitative PCR.
Results:In IPC, IPoC and RIPoC groups, the ischemic myocardial tissue had increased SOD activity and ATP amount, decreased MDA content and MPO activity; induced expressions of SDF-1, VEGF, mitochondrial function related genes Ndufa2, Ndufa4, Cox4il and Cox7a2.
Conclusion:RIPoC may increase anti-oxidation/reduction response, protect energy metabolism and reduce inlfammatory reaction in ischemic myocardial tissue, the effect was similar to pre-conditioning and post-conditioningin rats with IR injury.
