RESUMO
AIM: To study the change of myocardial ceramide during myocardial ischemia/reperfusion and the relationship between ceramide and apoptosis and oxidative stress. METHODS: After inducing myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in mice with pituitrin (Pit), myocardial SOD activity and MDA content were measured. DNA agarose gel electrophoresis and fluorescent staining of DAPI were done to check up apoptosis. The content of myocardial ceramide (?g/kg) was measured through HPTLC and scan of thin plate. RESULTS: The myocardium of I/R model group had the phenomenon of DNA ladder. Apoptosis index and ceramide content in I/R model group were higher than those in normal control group (P
RESUMO
Objective To study the anti-myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury effect of Sini Decoction's active fraction(SNDAF).Methods Experimental animals were randomly individed into normal,model,Sini Decoction(SND),and SNDAF groups.Rat hearts were perfused by the Langendorff method.The model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury was reproduced by adjusting the flow of perfused liquid.The perfused liquid of normal and model groups was KH buffer saturated by oxygen.The perfused liquid with SND or SNDAF was mixed with KH buffer.The coronary flow and contract power of myocardium at 0 min of ischemia and 1,5,10,20,30,40,and 50 min of reperfusion were tested,respectively.The incidence of reperfusion arrhythmias(IRA) in the first 1 minute of reperfusion was calculated.Mice were given drugs by ig for 3 d and then myocardial ischemia-reperfusion models were established by ip pituitrin(20 U/kg).ECG of mice was recorded at 0—80 min after ip administration. SOD activity,and the contents of MDA and LA in myocardium of mice were measured.Results Both SND and SNDAF could reinforce myocardial contract and reduce the IRA in the first minute of reperfusion.SND had better effect on IRA than that of SNDAF.SNDAF had better effect on myocardial contract than that of SND.SND and SNDAF could significantly drop ECG J point raise induced by ischemia,and increase SOD activity,and decrease contents of MDA and LA significantly in ischemia myocardium.There were no significant difference between SND and SNDAF.Conclusion SNDAF could improve oxidative injury and suppress(ischemia) of myocardium,reinforce myocardial contract,and reduce the incidence of arrhythmias during(myocardia) ischemia-reperfusion.
RESUMO
AIM: To study the effects of Sini Decoction's effective component(SNDE) on myocardial apoptosis and ceramide content during myocardial ischemla/reperfusion. METHODS: The mice of Kunming species were randomly divided into 3 groups: control,myocardial ischemia/reperfusion and SNDE.After inducing myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury of mice in vivo with pituitrin(Pit),myocardial SOD activity and MDA content were measured.DNA agarose gel electrophoresis and fluorescent stain of DAPI were done to check up apoptosis.The content of myocardial ceramide(?g/kg) was measured through HPTLC and scan of thin plate. RESULTS: The myocardium of model group has the phenomenon of DNA ladder.The apoptosis index and the ceramide content in model group were higher than those of control group(P
RESUMO
AIM: To detect the effect of Sini decoction on glutathione S-transferase (GST) mRNA expression in the ischemic myocardium. METHODS: Kunming mice were randomly divided into control group, ischemic group and Sini decoction group. Total RNA was extracted from the myocardium of mice in each group. The effect of Sini decoction on the expression of GST gene was detected by RT-PCR. RESULTS: The expression of GST mRNA in Sini decoction group was significantly up-regulated compared with the ischemic group and control group. CONCLUSION: Sini decoction can promote the expression of GST gene, which may be related to its protective effect on ischemic myocardium.
RESUMO
AIM: To screen the differentially expressed genes among normal, ischemic and Sini decoction-treated myocardium using DNA microarray.METHODS: Kunming mice were randomly divided into control group, ischemic group and Sini decoction group. Total RNA was extracted from myocardium of each group. cDNA microarray chips containing 2 304 cDNAs were used to investigate the gene expression pattern of each group. RESULTS: Up-and down-regulated genes were 33 and 70 in ischemic group vs control group, respectively. Up-and down-regulated genes were 23 and 52 respectively in Sini decoction group vs ischemic group. CONCLUSIONS: The analysis of gene expression pattern of ischemic myocardium based on cDNA microarray can realize high-throughput screening of the genes. Further analysis of those obtained genes information will be helpful to understand the molecular mechanism of myocardial ischemia and the therapeutic mechanism of Sini decoction.
