Abstract:
Objective:To investigate protective effect of wogonin on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion(MI/R)injury in rats,and to analyze its potential mechanism.Methods:SD rats were randomly separated into sham operation group,MI/R group,trimetazi-dine group(10 mg/kg),wogonin low,medium and high doses groups(5,10,20 mg/kg),with 12 rars per group.MI/R model was established by ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery for 30 min and reperfusion for 24 h.Echocardiography was applied to detect cardiac function in rats,ELISA was applied to detect activities of serum lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),creatine kinase isoen-zyme(CK-MB)and levels of TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-1β in rats;TTC staining was applied to detect myocardial infarct size;HE staining was applied to detect myocardial histopathological changes;TUNEL staining was applied to detect apoptosis level of cardiomyocytes;immunohistochemistry(IHC)method was applied to detect expression of nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)p65 in myocardial tissue;Western blot was applied to detect myocardial apoptosis and expressions of NF-κB/mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK)pathway-related proteins.Results:Compared with sham operation group,LVESD,LVEDD,serum CK-MB and LDH activities,levels of IL-6,IL-1β and TNF-α,myocardial infarction area percentage,myocardial cell apoptosis rate,protein level of Bax,expression of nuclear NF-κB p65,and Cleaved-Caspase-3/Caspase-3,p-P38 MAPK/P38 MAPK in MI/R group were obviously increased,EF,FS and pro-tein levels of Bcl-2 were obviously decreased(P<0.05),myocardial fibers were disordered,and a large number of inflammatory cells were infiltrated;compared with MI/R group,LVESD,LVEDD,serum CK-MB and LDH activities,levels of IL-6,IL-1β and TNF-α,myocardial infarction area percentage,myocardial cell apoptosis rate,protein level of Bax,expression of nuclear NF-κB p65,and Cleaved-Caspase-3/Caspase-3 and p-P38 MAPK/P38 MAPK in trimetazidine group and wogonin high,medium and low doses groups were obviously decreased,EF,FS and protein levels of Bcl-2 were obviously increased(P<0.05),myocardial inflammatory cell infil-tration and muscle fiber fragmentation were reduced in a dose-dependent manner.Conclusion:Wogonin may improve MI/R injury in rats by inhibiting NF-κB/MAPK signaling pathway,inhibiting inflammatory response and cardiomyocyte apoptosis.
