The Protective Effect of rhBNP on Postresuscitation Myocardial Dysfunction in a Rat Cardiac Arrest Model.

ABSTRACT: Purpose:We investigated the protective effects and the underlying mechanisms through which recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide (rhBNP) acts on postresuscitation myocardial dysfunction (PRMD) in the cardiac arrest (CA) model. Methods:Ventricular fibrillation was induced and untreated for 6?min. And the time of cardiopulmonary resuscitation was 8?min, after which defibrillation was attempted in this rat model. 24 Sprague Dawley rats (450-550g) were randomized into cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)?+?rhBNP and CPR?+?placebo groups after restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). rhBNP was infused at PR 30?min (loading dose: 1.5?µg/kg, 3?min; maintenance dose: 0.01?µg/kg, 3?min; maintenance dose: 0.01?? (TNF-? (TNF-? (TNF-?B (NF-?B (NF. Results:The administration of rhBNP attenuated the severity of PRMD and myocardial tissue injuries, with improvement of MAP (mean arterial blood pressure), ETCO2 (end-tidal CO2), serum level of NT-proBNP, EF, CO, and MPI values. The serum levels and protein expression levels in myocardial tissue of IL-6 and TNF-? (TNF-?B (NF. Conclusion:Our research demonstrated that the administration of rhBNP attenuated the severity of PRMD and myocardial tissue injuries and increased the 24?h survival rate in this CA model. rhBNP administration also reduced the serum and myocardial tissue levels of IL-6 and TNF-? after ROSC, likely due to the suppression of the TLR4/NF-?B signaling pathway and the regulation of inflammatory mediator secretion.?

Project description:Cardiac arrest leads to sudden cessation of oxygen supply and cerebral hypoxia occurs when there is not sufficient oxygen supplied to the brain. Current Guidelines for adult cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and emergency cardiovascular care recommend the use of 100% oxygen during resuscitative efforts to maximize the probability of achieving the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). However, the optimal strategy for oxygen management after ROSC is still debatable. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of the duration of post-resuscitation hyperoxic ventilation on neurological outcomes in asphyxial cardiac arrest rats treated with targeted temperature management (TTM). Asphyxia was induced by blocking the endotracheal tube in 80 adult male Sprague-Dawley rats. CPR begun after 7 min of untreated cardiac arrest. Animals were randomized to either the normoxic control under normothermia (NNC) group or to one of the 4 experimental groups (n = 16 each) immediately after ROSC: ventilated with 100% oxygen for 0 (O2_0h), 1 (O2_1h), 3 (O2_3h), or 5 (O2_5h) h and ventilated with room air thereafter under TTM. Physiological variables were recorded at baseline and during the 6 h postresuscitation monitoring period. Animals were closely observed for 96 h to assess neurologic recovery and survival. There were no significant differences in baseline measurements between groups, and all animals were successfully resuscitated. There were significant interactions between the duration of 100% oxygen administration and hemodynamics as well as, myocardial and cerebral injuries. Among all the durations of hyperoxic ventilation investigated, significantly lower neurological deficit scores and higher survival rates were observed in the O2_3h group than in the NNC group. In conclusion, postresuscitation hyperoxic ventilation leads to improved PaO2, PaCO2, hemodynamic, myocardial and cerebral recovery in asphyxial cardiac arrest rats treated with TTM. However, the beneficial effects of high concentration-oxygen are duration dependent and ventilation with 100% oxygen during induced hypothermia contributes to improved neurological recovery and survival after 96 h.

Project description:Er-Xian decoction (EXD), a formula of Chinese medicine, is often used to treat menopausal syndrome in China. The aim of the present study was to explore the potential cardioprotective mechanism of EXD against myocardial injury in an ovariectomy-induced menopausal rat model.We divided the female Wistar rats into ovariectomy group and sham operation group (SHAM group). The ovariectomized (OVX) rats received treatment of vehicle (OVX group), EXD (EXD group) or 17?-estradiol (E2 group). After 12-week of treatment, the level of estradiol in serum was detected using an electrochemiluminescence immunoassay, and electrophysiologic changes in myocardial action potentials (AP) were evaluated using intracellular microelectrode technique. Changes in the histopathology of the left ventricle and the ultrastructure of the cardiomyocytes were observed by hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining and transmission electronmicroscopy to assess myocardial injury. Microarrays were applied for the evaluation of gene expression profiles in ventricular muscle of the OVX and EXD rats. Further pathway analyses of the differential expression genes were carried out using the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG). And real-time quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) was used for verification of the key findings.The results from electrophysiological and histomorphological observations demonstrated that EXD had a substantial myocardial protective effect. The EXD-treated rats, in comparison with the OVX rats, demonstrated up-regulated expression of 28 genes yet down-regulated expression of 157 genes in the ventricular muscle. The qRT-PCR assay validated all selected differential expression genes. The KEGG pathway analysis showed that the down-regulated genes were relevant to cardiomyopathy and myocardial contractility. EXD could decrease the mRNA expressions of cardiac myosin (Myh7, Myl2) and integrin (Itgb5) in the ventricular myocardium.EXD had a protective effect against myocardial injury in OVX rats, and this cardioprotective effect may be associated with modulation of the expression of cardiac myosin or integrin at the mRNA level.
