Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the protective effects and potential mechanism of penehyclidine hydrochloride (PHC) on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in mice through the macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF)/adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathways. METHODS Male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into sham operation group, I/R group, I/R+PHC group (PHC 20 μg/kg), I/R+ISO-1 group (MIF inhibitor 35 mg/kg), I/R+ PHC+ISO-1 group (with the same dosage as each single drug group), with 8 mice in each group. Except for the sham operation group, the myocardial I/R injury model was prepared by coronary artery ligation. Thirty minutes before ligation, mice in each drug group were injected with 1 mL of the corresponding drug solution through the tail vein. After 120 min of reperfusion, the levels of cardiac function indexes [heart rate, stroke volume, ejection fraction, cardiac output, left ventricular posterior wall thickness in systole (LVPWs), left ventricular posterior wall thickness in diastole (LVPWd)], serum inflammatory factors [interleukin-6 (IL- 6), IL-10, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)] in mice were detected in each group; the pathological changes and ultrastructure of myocardial tissue were observed, and the protein expressions of B cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), phosphorylated AMPKα (p-AMPKα) and MIF in myocardial tissue were detected. RESULTS Compared with the sham operation group, the myocardial cells in the I/R group were loosely arranged, with severe infiltration of inflammatory cells and obvious mitochondrial damage. Serum levels of IL-6 and TNF-α and protein expression of p-AMPKα in myocardial tissue were significantly increased or upregulated, while heart rate, stroke volume, ejection fraction, cardiac output, LVPWd and serum level of IL-10 were significantly decreased (P<0.05). Compared with the I/R group, the myocardial tissue lesions in the I/R+PHC group were alleviated; serum levels of IL-6 and TNF-α were decreased significantly, while heart rate, stroke volume, ejection fraction, cardiac output, LVPWs, LVPWd, serum level of IL-10, and protein expressions of Bcl-2, p- AMPKα and MIF in myocardial tissue were significantly increased or upregulated (P<0.05). However, myocardial tissue lesions of mice in the I/R+ISO-1 group worsened, with most quantitative indicators significantly deteriorating (P<0.05); MIF inhibitor could generally reverse the protective effect of PHC on I/R mice (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS PHC can improve cardiac function, reduce myocardial inflammation, and restore the ultrastructure of myocardial tissue in I/R mice. These effects may be related to the activation of the MIF/AMPK signaling pathway.
