Apolipoprotein a-I is a potential mediator of remote ischemic preconditioning.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) has emerged as an attractive strategy in clinical settings. Despite convincing evidence of the critical role played by circulating humoral mediators, their actual identities remain unknown. In this study, we aimed to identify RIPC-induced humoral mediators using a proteomic approach.

Methods

and Results Rats were exposed to 10-min limb ischemia followed by 5- (RIPC 5') or 10-min (RIPC 10') reperfusion prior to blood sampling. The control group only underwent blood sampling. Plasma samples were analyzed using surface-enhanced laser desorption and ionization - time of flight - mass spectrometry (SELDI-TOF-MS). Three protein peaks were selected for their significant increase in RIPC 10'. They were identified and confirmed as apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I). Additional rats were exposed to myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) and assigned to one of the following groups RIPC+myocardial infarction (MI) (10-min limb ischemia followed by 10-min reperfusion initiated 20 minutes prior to myocardial I/R), ApoA-I+MI (10 mg/kg ApoA-I injection 10 minutes before myocardial I/R), and MI (no further intervention). In comparison with untreated MI rats, RIPC reduced infarct size (52.2±3.7% in RIPC+MI vs. 64.9±2.6% in MI; p<0.05). Similarly, ApoA-I injection decreased infarct size (50.9±3.8%; p<0.05 vs. MI).

Conclusions

RIPC was associated with a plasmatic increase in ApoA-I. Furthermore, ApoA-I injection before myocardial I/R recapitulated the cardioprotection offered by RIPC in rats. This data suggests that ApoA-I may be a protective blood-borne factor involved in the RIPC mechanism.

Project description:Background Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) attenuates myocardial damage during elective and primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Recent studies suggest that coronary microcirculatory function is an important determinant of clinical outcome. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of RIPC on markers of microcirculatory function. Methods and Results Patients referred for cardiac catheterization and fractional flow reserve measurement were randomized to RIPC or sham. Operators and patients were blinded to treatment allocation. Comprehensive physiological assessments were performed before and after RIPC/sham including the index of microcirculatory resistance and coronary flow reserve after intracoronary glyceryl trinitrate and during the infusion of intravenous adenosine. Thirty patients were included (87% male; mean age: 63.1±10.0 years). RIPC and sham groups were similar with respect to baseline characteristics. RIPC decreased the calculated index of microcirculatory resistance (median, before RIPC: 22.6 [interquartile range [IQR]: 17.9-25.6]; after RIPC: 17.5 [IQR: 14.5-21.3]; P=0.007) and increased coronary flow reserve (2.6±0.9 versus 3.8±1.7, P=0.001). These RIPC-mediated changes were associated with a reduction in hyperemic transit time (median: 0.33 [IQR: 0.26-0.40] versus 0.25 [IQR: 0.20-0.30]; P=0.010). RIPC resulted in a significant decrease in the calculated index of microcirculatory resistance compared with sham (relative change with treatment [mean±SD] was -18.1±24.8% versus +6.1±37.5; P=0.047) and a significant increase in coronary flow reserve (+41.2% [IQR: 20.0-61.7] versus -7.8% [IQR: -19.1 to 10.3]; P<0.001). Conclusions The index of microcirculatory resistance and coronary flow reserve are acutely improved by remote ischemic preconditioning. This raises the possibility that RIPC confers cardioprotection during percutaneous coronary intervention as a result of an improvement in coronary microcirculatory function.
