Project description:BackgroundHeart failure (HF) remains one of the most common events in the progression of hypertension. Magnoflorine (MNF) has been shown beneficial effects on the cardiovascular system. However, the action of MNF on angiotensin (Ang) II-induced cardiac remodeling and its underlying mechanisms have not yet been characterised. Here, we assessed the action of MNF in the development of hypertension-related HF.MethodsC57BL/6 male mice were subjected to Ang II through a micro-osmotic pump infusion continuously for 4 weeks to induce hypertensive HF. MNF (10 and 20 mg/kg) was administered in the final 2 weeks. Ang II content was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit. Values of ejection fraction (EF) and fractional shortening (FS) were detected using an ultrasound diagnostic instrument. The mRNA levels of hypertrophic and fibrotic genes were determined by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Haematoxylin and eosin (H&E), wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), Masson trichrome, and Sirius Red staining were used to analyse pathologic changes in heart tissues. The expression levels of phosphorylated AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), light chain 3 microtubule associated protein II (LC3 II) to LC3 I, and p62 were detected by western blot assay.ResultsMNF significantly improved cardiac dysfunction and the content of creatine kinase-MB without altering blood pressure in Ang II-challenged mice. MNF obviously corrected the phenotypes of cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis, including the high mRNA levels of atrial natriuretic peptide (Anp), brain natriuretic peptide (Bnp), collagen1a (Col1a1), transforming growth factor beta (Tgfb1), enlarged myocardial areas, and increased positive areas of Masson trichrome and Sirius Red staining. In addition, MNF alleviated oxidative injury, reflected by the upregulation of glutathione and the downregulation of reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde. The activation of AMPK was elevated accompanied by an increased level of autophagy by MNF in hypertensive heart tissues. The therapeutic action of MNF was confirmed in Ang II-challenged H9c2 cells. Specifically, the AMPK inhibitor could eliminate the autophagy pathway in which MNF is involved.ConclusionsMNF has benefits in hypertension-induced cardiac remodeling, which was partially associated with the improvement of oxidative stress via the mediation of the AMPK/autophagy axis.
