SENP2-mediated SERCA2a deSUMOylation increases calcium overload in cardiomyocytes to aggravate myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury / 中华医学杂志(英文版)

BACKGROUND@#Sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase 2a (SERCA2a) is a key protein that maintains myocardial Ca 2+ homeostasis. The present study aimed to investigate the mechanism underlying the SERCA2a-SUMOylation (small ubiquitin-like modifier) process after ischemia/reperfusion injury (I/RI) in vitro and in vivo .@*METHODS@#Calcium transient and systolic/diastolic function of cardiomyocytes isolated from Serca2a knockout (KO) and wild-type mice with I/RI were compared. SUMO-relevant protein expression and localization were detected by quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR), Western blotting, and immunofluorescence in vitro and in vivo . Serca2a-SUMOylation, infarct size, and cardiac function of Senp1 or Senp2 overexpressed/suppressed adenovirus infected cardiomyocytes, were detected by immunoprecipitation, triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC)-Evans blue staining, and echocardiography respectively.@*RESULTS@#The results showed that the changes of Fura-2 fluorescence intensity and contraction amplitude of cardiomyocytes decreased in the I/RI groups and were further reduced in the Serca2a KO + I/RI groups. Senp1 and Senp2 messenger ribose nucleic acid (mRNA) and protein expression levels in vivo and in cardiomyocytes were highest at 6 h and declined at 12 h after I/RI. However, the highest levels in HL-1 cells were recorded at 12 h. Senp2 expression increased in the cytoplasm, unlike that of Senp1. Inhibition of Senp2 protein reversed the I/RI-induced Serca2a-SUMOylation decline, reduced the infarction area, and improved cardiac function, while inhibition of Senp1 protein could not restore the above indicators.@*CONCLUSION@#I/RI activated Senp1 and Senp2 protein expression, which promoted Serca2a-deSUMOylation, while inhibition of Senp2 expression reversed Serca2a-SUMOylation and improved cardiac function.

Effects of attention to positive and negative and rumination on post traumatic growth in patients with coronary artery disease undergoing interventional therapy / 中国实用护理杂志

Objective To investigate the level of posttraumatic growth(PTG) in patients with percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI), to explore the ruminant, positive/negative information attention to the impact of both on the posttraumatic growth. Methods A study of 360 patients with coronary artery disease was conducted using general information, Event Related Rumination Inventory (ERRI) and Attention to Positive and Negative Information Scale (APNIS) and the Post Traumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI). Results The Attention to Positive information (API) score was (38.47 ± 9.33) points, and the Attention to Negative Information (ANI) score was (32.99 ± 8.48) points for interventional patients with coronary heart disease, the total score of PTGI was(49.96±19.96)points and the total score of ERRI was (26.52 ± 10.55)points. In PCI patient the PTG and API were positively correlated with rumination (both purposeful and invasive), and PTG was negatively correlated with ANI. The result showed that API, rumination (including deliberate and intrusive) had positive predictive effect on PTG, and ANI had negative predictive effect on PTG, API and ANI respectively had significant interaction with ruminant meditation. Conclusions Patients with coronary artery disease undergoing interventional therapy reported the API was low, the ANI level was higher, the PTG and rumination level was lower. Clinical measures higher, the PTG and rumination level lower. Clinical measures should be taken to guide patients to pay more attention to positive information, to reduce the concern for negative information, and to guide patients to correct reflection in order to promote post-traumatic growth.
