ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the role of non-receptor tyrosine kinase(c-Src)in sevoflurane pretreatment for relieving myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.Methods By using the random number table,the healthy male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 5 groups (n=10):sham operation group (Ⅰ),ischemia-reperfusion group(Ⅱ),sevoflurane pretreatment group(Ⅲ), sevoflurane pretreatment plus dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO,Ⅳ)and sevoflurane pretreatment plus c-Src specific inhibitor SU6656 group(Ⅴ)groups.The group Ⅲ,Ⅳ and Ⅴ were performed the sevoflurane aftertreatment before reperfusion;the group Ⅴ was in-jected by SU6656 at 5 min before reperfusion;the group Ⅳ was given the equal volume DMSO.The arterial blood sample in each group was collected at 120 min after reperfusion for detecting serum LDH level and CK-MB activity.Rats were killed for taking the heart and separating the left ventricle to calculate the area of myocardial infarctio;the expression levels of Src,phosphorylated Src (p-Src),CAT and SOD in myocardial tissue were detected in each group.Results Compared with the groupⅠ,the level of serum CK-MB and LDH activity,myocardial infarct area and p-Src/Src,CAT,SOD in the other 4 groups were increased significantly (P <0.05);comparing with the group Ⅲ,the serum CK-MB and LDH activity,myocardial infarct area and SOD,CAT,in the group Ⅱ,Ⅳ and Ⅴ were increased,however the level of p-Src/Src was decreased significantly (P <0.05).Conclusion The c-Src-reactive ox-ygen signaling pathway might mediate the role of sevoflurane pretreatment for reducing myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in rat.
