Antioxidation effect of dihydroquercetin pretreatment in isolatedrat hearts during myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury / 中国药理学通报

ABSTRACT

Aim To investigate the protective effects of dihydroquercetin(DDQ) against myocardial ischemis reperfusion injury(MIRI) in rats.Methods Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 4 groups(n=10)normal,control,I/R model, and I/R model+DDQ(5,10 mg·L-1).This study used an isolated Langendorff rat heart model.The left ventricu-lar developed pressure(LVDP),heart rate(HR) and the maximum rise and fall rate of the left ventricular pressure(±dp/dtmax) were monitored and documented using a physiological recorder.The levels of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH) and creatine kinase(CK) were analyzed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Infarct size was measured using 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining.The levels of superoxide dismutase(SOD) and malondialdehyde(MDA), as well as the ratio of glutathione/glutathione disulfide(GSH/GSSG) were measured via ELISA.HE staining was used to observe the pathological changes of myocardial tissue.Results Compared with the I/R model group, the I/R model+DDQ groups raised hemodynamic parameters, SOD level, and GSH/GSSG ratio;and reduced the amount of CK, LDH, MDA levels.Moreover, the I/R model+DDQ groups had lower infarct size and pathological changes in myocardial tissue than I/R model group.Conclusion DDQ exertes cardioprotective effects against I/R via improving the oxygen free radical scavenging ability, the inhibition of oxygen free radical and reducing lipid peroxidation.
