The application of remote ischemic conditioning in cardiac surgery.

ABSTRACT: Perioperative myocardial ischemia and infarction are the leading causes of morbidity and mortality following anesthesia and surgery. The discovery of endogenous cardioprotective mechanisms has led to testing of new methods to protect the human heart. These approaches have included ischemic pre-conditioning, per-conditioning, post-conditioning, and remote conditioning of the myocardium. Pre-conditioning and per-conditioning include brief and repetitive periods of sub-lethal ischemia before and during prolonged ischemia, respectively; and post-conditioning is applied at the onset of reperfusion. Remote ischemic conditioning involves transient, repetitive, non-lethal ischemia and reperfusion in one organ or tissue (remote from the heart) that renders myocardium more resistant to lethal ischemia/reperfusion injury. In healthy, young hearts, many conditioning maneuvers can significantly increase the resistance of the heart against ischemia/reperfusion injury. The large multicenter clinical trials with ischemic remote conditioning have not been proven successful in cardiac surgery thus far. The lack of clinical success is due to underlying risk factors that interfere with remote ischemic conditioning and the use of cardioprotective agents that have activated the endogenous cardioprotective mechanisms prior to remote ischemic conditioning. Future preclinical research using remote ischemic conditioning will need to be conducted using comorbid models.

Remote ischemic conditioning.

Project description:In remote ischemic conditioning (RIC), brief, reversible episodes of ischemia with reperfusion in one vascular bed, tissue, or organ confer a global protective phenotype and render remote tissues and organs resistant to ischemia/reperfusion injury. The peripheral stimulus can be chemical, mechanical, or electrical and involves activation of peripheral sensory nerves. The signal transfer to the heart or other organs is through neuronal and humoral communications. Protection can be transferred, even across species, with plasma-derived dialysate and involves nitric oxide, stromal derived factor-1?, microribonucleic acid-144, but also other, not yet identified factors. Intracardiac signal transduction involves: adenosine, bradykinin, cytokines, and chemokines, which activate specific receptors; intracellular kinases; and mitochondrial function. RIC by repeated brief inflation/deflation of a blood pressure cuff protects against endothelial dysfunction and myocardial injury in percutaneous coronary interventions, coronary artery bypass grafting, and reperfused acute myocardial infarction. RIC is safe and effective, noninvasive, easily feasible, and inexpensive.

Peripheral Mechanisms of Remote Ischemic Conditioning.

Project description:Ischemic conditioning induces an endogenous protective mechanism that allows organisms to develop resistance to subsequent insults. The conditioning effect occurs across organs and species. Recently, much attention has been given to remote ischemic limb conditioning due to its non-invasive nature and potential therapeutic applications. While tolerance is induced at the primary injury site (e.g. the heart in cardiac ischemia and the brain in stroke), the site of conditioning application is away from the target organ, suggesting the protective factors are extrinsic in nature rather than intrinsic. This review will focus on the peripheral factors that account for the induction of tolerance. Topics of particular interest are blood flow changes, peripheral neural pathways, humoral factors in circulation, and the peripheral immune system. This review will also discuss how conditioning may negatively affect metabolically compromised conditions, its optimal dose, and window for therapy development.

Remote Ischemic Conditioning and Stroke Recovery.

Project description:Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is a noninvasive procedure whereby several periods of ischemia are induced in a limb. Although there is growing interest in using RIC to improve stroke recovery, preclinical RIC research has focused exclusively on neuroprotection, using male animals and the intraluminal suture stroke model, and delivered RIC at times not relevant to either brain repair or behavioral recovery. In alignment with the Stroke Recovery and Rehabilitation Roundtable, we address these shortcomings. First, a standardized session (5-minute inflation/deflation, 4 repetitions) of RIC was delivered using a cuff on the contralesional hindlimb in both male and female Sprague-Dawley rats. Using the endothelin-1 stroke model, RIC was delivered once either prestroke (18 hours before, pre-RIC) or poststroke (4 hours after, post-RIC), and infarct volume was assessed at 24 hours poststroke using magnetic resonance imaging. RIC was delivered at these times to mimic the day before a surgery where clots are possible or as a treatment similar to tissue plasminogen activator, respectively. Pre-RIC reduced infarct volume by 41% compared with 29% with post-RIC. RIC was neuroprotective in both sexes, but males had a 46% reduction of infarct volume compared with 23% in females. After confirming the acute efficacy of RIC, we applied it chronically for 4 weeks, beginning 5 days poststroke. This delayed RIC failed to enhance poststroke behavioral recovery. Based on these findings, the most promising application of RIC is during the hyperacute and early acute phases of stroke, a time when other interventions such as exercise may be contraindicated.

Chronic remote ischemic conditioning for cardiovascular protection.

Project description:New treatments are needed to prevent adverse left ventricular remodelling following acute myocardial infarction (AMI), in order to prevent heart failure and improve clinical outcomes following AMI. Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) using transient limb ischemia and reperfusion has been reported to reduce myocardial infarct (MI) size in AMI patients treated by primary percutaneous coronary intervention, and whether it can improve clinical outcomes is currently being investigated. Interestingly, repeated daily episode of limb RIC (termed 'chronic remote ischemic conditioning', or CRIC) has been shown in experimental and clinical studies to confer beneficial effects on post-AMI cardiac remodelling and chronic heart failure. In addition, the beneficial effects of CRIC extend to vascular function, peripheral arterial disease and stroke. In this review article, we focus on the therapeutic potential of CRIC as a strategy for cardiovascular protection and for improving clinical outcomes in patients with cardiovascular disease.

Remote ischemic conditioning: from bench to bedside.

Project description:Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is a therapeutic strategy for protecting organs or tissue against the detrimental effects of acute ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). It describes an endogenous phenomenon in which the application of one or more brief cycles of non-lethal ischemia and reperfusion to an organ or tissue protects a remote organ or tissue from a sustained episode of lethal IRI. Although RIC protection was first demonstrated to protect the heart against acute myocardial infarction, its beneficial effects are also seen in other organs (lung, liver, kidney, intestine, brain) and tissues (skeletal muscle) subjected to acute IRI. The recent discovery that RIC can be induced non-invasively by simply inflating and deflating a standard blood pressure cuff placed on the upper arm or leg, has facilitated its translation into the clinical setting, where it has been reported to be beneficial in a variety of cardiac scenarios. In this review article we provide an overview of RIC, the potential underlying mechanisms, and its potential as a novel therapeutic strategy for protecting the heart and other organs from acute IRI.

Remote Ischemic Conditioning for Motor Recovery after Acute Ischemic Stroke.

Project description:BackgroundRemote ischemic conditioning (RIC) has shown an impressive neuroprotective effect on acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in animal experiments. But whether chronic RIC improves long-term functional outcomes remains unclear.Materials and methodsWe performed a non-randomized controlled trial. Eligible patients (aged 18 -80 y) with hemiplegia caused by AIS were allocated to the RIC group and the control group. All participants received normal protocol rehabilitation therapy. Patients in the RIC group underwent RIC twice daily for 90 days. The outcome included the 90-day Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) scores and modified Rankin's scale (mRS) scores, as well as changes in angiogenesis-related factors in serum from baseline to 90 days.ResultsTwenty-seven patients were included in the analysis (13 in the RIC group and 14 in the control group). There was no significant difference in 90-day total FMA scores between the two groups. Lower limb FMA scores at day 90 were significantly higher in the RIC group (32.8±8.7 vs. 24.8±5.4, adjusted P =0.042). The proportion of favorable outcome (mRS<2) was higher in the RIC group than that in the control group, but no significant difference was detected (8 [61.5%] vs. 7 [50%], P =0.705). A significant increase has been found in the level of epidermal growth factor (EGF) in serum (9.4 [1.1 to 25.7] vs. -8.7 [-15.1 to 4.7], P =0.036) after chronic RIC procedure.ConclusionThis study investigated the role that RIC plays in AIS recovery, especially in motor function. RIC may have beneficial effects on lower limbs recovery by enhancing the EGF level. The effect of RIC on motor recovery should be further validated in future studies.

Remote ischemic conditioning for the treatment of ischemic moyamoya disease.

Project description:AimsThis study investigated the safety and efficacy of remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) on ameliorating the sequelae of ischemic moyamoya disease (iMMD).MethodsA total of 30 iMMD patients underwent long-term RIC and were followed up at 0.5, 1, and 2 years for clinical outcomes, including frequency of stroke recurrence, Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) scale, peak systolic velocities (PSV), and cerebral perfusion.ResultsDuring the whole RIC treatment process, no RIC-related adverse event occurred. Only one of 30 patients suffered a onetime infarction (3.3%), and the ratios of acceptable PGIC were 88.2%, 64.3%, and 92.3% at 0.5, 1, and 2 years follow-up. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed the frequency of stroke recurrence was significantly reduced after RIC (P = .013). The frequency of TIA per week was 1.1 (0.6, 2.8) prior to RIC and 0.1 (0.0, 0.5) post-RIC (P < .01). Compared to baseline, PSV values were significantly reduced after RIC treatment (P = .002 at 0.5, P = .331 at 1, and P = .006 at 2 years). In patients undergoing perfusion studies, 75% obtained improvement on followed-up SPECT and 95% on followed-up PET maps.ConclusionsRemote ischemic conditioning may be beneficial on controlling iMMD-induced ischemic events, relieving symptoms, and improving cerebral perfusion, without incidence of complications in this case series.

Remote Ischemic Pre-Conditioning Attenuates Adverse Cardiac Remodeling and Mortality Following Doxorubicin Administration in Mice.

Project description:ObjectivesBecause of its multifaceted cardioprotective effects, remote ischemic pre-conditioning (RIPC) was examined as a strategy to attenuate doxorubicin (DOX) cardiotoxicity.BackgroundThe use of DOX is limited by dose-dependent cardiotoxicity and heart failure. Oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammation, and autophagy modulation have been proposed as mediators of DOX cardiotoxicity.MethodsAfter baseline echocardiography, adult male CD1 mice were randomized to either sham or RIPC protocol (3 cycles of 5 min femoral artery occlusion followed by 5 min reperfusion) 1 h before receiving DOX (20 mg/kg, intraperitoneal). The mice were observed primarily for survival over 85 days (86 mice). An additional cohort of 50 mice was randomized to either sham or RIPC 1 h before DOX treatment and was followed for 25 days, at which time cardiac fibrosis, apoptosis, and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation were assessed, as well as the expression profiles of apoptosis and autophagy markers.ResultsSurvival was significantly improved in the RIPC cohort compared with the sham cohort (p = 0.007). DOX-induced cardiac fibrosis and apoptosis were significantly attenuated with RIPC compared with sham (p < 0.05 and p < 0.001, respectively). Although no mitochondrial dysfunction was detected at 25 days, there was a significant increase in autophagy markers with DOX that was attenuated with RIPC. Moreover, DOX caused a 49% decline in cardiac BCL2/BAX expression, which was restored with RIPC (p < 0.05 vs. DOX). DOX also resulted in a 17% reduction in left ventricular mass at 25 days, which was prevented with RIPC (p < 0.01), despite the lack of significant changes in left ventricular ejection fraction.ConclusionsOur preclinical results suggested that RIPC before DOX administration might be a promising approach for attenuating DOX cardiotoxicity.

Short-term remote ischemic conditioning may protect monkeys after ischemic stroke.

Project description:ObjectiveWe aimed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of short-term remote ischemic postconditioning (RIPC) in acute stroke monkey models.MethodsAcute stroke monkeys were allocated to four groups based on the number of limbs exposed to RIPC. RIPC was initiated by 5-min cuff inflation/deflation cycles of the target limb(s) for 5-10 bouts. Vital signs, skin integrity, brain MRI, and serum levels of cardiac enzymes (myoglobin, creatine kinase [CK], CK-muscle/brain [CK-MB]), one inflammatory marker (high-sensitivity C-reactive protein [hsCRP], and one endothelial injury marker (von Willebrand factor [vWF]) were assessed. Spetzler scores were used to assess neurological function.ResultsNo significant differences in vital signs or local skin integrity were found. Short-term RIPC did not reduce infarct volume under any condition at the 24th hour after stroke. However, neurological function improved in multi-limb RIPC compared with sham and single-limb RIPC at the 30th day follow-up after stroke. Myoglobin, CK, and CK-MB levels were reduced after multi-limb RIPC, regardless of the number of bouts. Moreover, multi-limb RIPC produced a greater diminution in CK-MB levels, whereas two-limb RIPC was more effective in reducing serum CK levels at the 24th hour after stroke. hsCRP increased after 5 bouts of multi-limb RIPC before decreasing below baseline and single-limb RIPC levels. Serum vWF was decreased at later time points after RIPC in all RIPC groups.ConclusionsStroke monkeys in hyperacute stage may benefit from short-term RIPC; however, whether this intervention can be translated into clinical use in patients with acute ischemic stroke warrants further study.
