Project description:Background The axon guidance cue Slit2 recently has been found to regulate calcium homeostasis and molecular signaling in various stress events in different organs. However, whether Slit2 plays a role in cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury has not been reported. Here, we aimed to investigate the role of Slit2 and the underlying mechanisms in cardiac IR injury. Methods Langendorff-perfused isolated hearts from Slit2-overexpressing (Slit2-Tg) mice and their background strain C57BL/6J mice were subjected to 20 min of global ischemia followed by 40 min of reperfusion. Left ventricular function of isolated hearts was monitored. Infarct size of post-IR hearts was determined by staining with 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) and histological changes of cardiac tissues and cells were determined with hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and transmission electron microscopy. Transcriptomic analysis was used to predict the biological processes and signaling pathways affected by Slit2 overexpression in the post-IR myocardium. Pro-Q staining and Western blotting was used to assess the phosphorylation levels of cardiac myofilaments and expression levels of myofilament-associated protein kinase and phosphatases. Results Slit2 overexpression increased post-IR left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP) by 35% and reduced infarct size by 53%, along with decreased myofibrillar disruption, mitochondrial swelling, and mitochondrial cristae dissolution. Slit2 overexpression significantly changed post-IR gene expression profiles. Functional products of these genes include regulation of cation transmembrane transport, cation homeostasis, collagen fibril organization, and regulation of heart rate. And post-IR myocardial KEGG pathways upregulated by Slit2 overexpression include ECM-receptor interaction, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, and adrenergic signaling. Slit2 overexpression impacted myofilament phosphorylation together with myofilament-associated protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms and protein phosphatases (PPs). IR in C57BL/6J hearts upregulated phosphorylation of cardiac troponin-I (cTnI), which was suppressed by Slit2 overexpression. Myofilament‐associated PKCε, PKCδ, and PP2A were significantly increased post‐IR in C57BL/6J hearts, but in Slit2‐Tg hearts, myofilament‐associated PKCε and PP2A were increased and PKCδ was suppressed. Conclusions Our results demonstrate that Slit2 overexpression protects cardiac function and reduces IR injury, which is associated with Slit2‐induced gene profile shifts. The suppression of MyBP‐C and troponin‐I phosphorylation, and myofilament‐associated PKCδ levels induced by Slit2 overexpression could contribute to the cardioprotection of Slit2 in post-IR myocardium.

Project description:BackgroundThe secreted glycoprotein Slit2, previously known as an axon guidance cue, has recently been found to protect tissues in pathological conditions; however, it is unknown whether Slit2 functions in cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury.MethodsLangendorff-perfused isolated hearts from Slit2-overexpressing (Slit2-Tg) mice and C57BL/6J mice (background strain) were subjected to 20 min of global ischemia followed by 40 min of reperfusion. We compared Slit2-Tg with C57BL/6J mice in terms of left ventricular function and infarct size of post-IR hearts along with tissue histological and biochemical assessments (mRNA and protein expression, phosphorylation status, and myofilament contractile properties).ResultsSlit2 played cardioprotective roles in maintaining contractile function and reducing infarct size in post-IR hearts. IR increased the expression of the Slit2 receptor Robo4 and the membrane receptor Slamf7, but these increases were suppressed by Slit2 overexpression post IR. This suppression was associated with inhibition of the nuclear translocation of NFκB p65 and reductions in IL-1β and IL-18 release into perfusates. Furthermore, Slit2 overexpression attenuated the increases in myofilament-associated PKCs and phosphorylation of cTnI at Ser43 in the post-IR myocardium. The myofilament calcium sensitivity and actomyosin MgATPase activity were preserved in the post-IR Slit2 myocardium.ConclusionOur work demonstrates that Slit2 inhibits inflammatory responses and maintains myofilament contractile properties, thus contributing, at least in part, to the prevention of structural and functional damage during IR.

Project description:Purpose：Detection of differentially expressed lncRNA in the infarct zone and the control group in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury model tissue. Method: Use 8 weeks of C57BL/6 mice to establish a myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury model, 45 minutes of ischemia, and 24 hours after reperfusion, the mice were sacrificed to obtain materials. Result: The expression of lncRNAs in the infarct area of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury model mice was detected, and it was found that a total of 43 lncRNAs related to myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury changed in expression, of which 17 were up-regulated (fold change >1.5). 26 expressions are down-regulated (fold change <0.8)

Project description:Neutrophils recruited to the postischemic kidney contribute to the pathogenesis of ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), which is the most common cause of renal failure among hospitalized patients. The Slit family of secreted proteins inhibits chemotaxis of leukocytes by preventing activation of Rho-family GTPases, suggesting that members of this family might modulate the recruitment of neutrophils and the resulting IRI. Here, in static and microfluidic shear assays, Slit2 inhibited multiple steps required for the infiltration of neutrophils into tissue. Specifically, Slit2 blocked the capture and firm adhesion of human neutrophils to inflamed vascular endothelial barriers as well as their subsequent transmigration. To examine whether these observations were relevant to renal IRI, we administered Slit2 to mice before bilateral clamping of the renal pedicles. Assessed at 18 hours after reperfusion, Slit2 significantly inhibited renal tubular necrosis, neutrophil and macrophage infiltration, and rise in plasma creatinine. In vitro, Slit2 did not impair the protective functions of neutrophils, including phagocytosis and superoxide production, and did not inhibit neutrophils from killing the extracellular pathogen Staphylococcus aureus. In vivo, administration of Slit2 did not attenuate neutrophil recruitment or bacterial clearance in mice with ascending Escherichia coli urinary tract infections and did not increase the bacterial load in the livers of mice infected with the intracellular pathogen Listeria monocytogenes. Collectively, these results suggest that Slit2 may hold promise as a strategy to combat renal IRI without compromising the protective innate immune response.

Project description:Ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury, a ubiquitous consequence of liver transplantation, is a cause of early graft rejection and increased morbidity. At present, there are no effective strategies to reduce hepatic IR injury. Molecular mechanisms that promote cell survival under these circumstances are largely undefined. We examined changes in global gene expression at early reperfusion times to identify potential IR-mediated protective responses. Using a rat model of 30 minutes of 70% warm ischemia followed by reperfusion, RNA for microarray analysis was extracted from the non-ischemic and the ischemic-reperfused lobes at four reperfusion times: 0 (no reperfusion), 0.5, 2, and 6 hours. Differentially expressed genes and pathway analyses were used to identify IR-induced events. The transcriptome of the reperfused lobes was unique and discrete at each reperfusion time, showing no evidence of sustained changes of the gene expression alterations seen at 30 minutes of reperfusion. At all reperfusion times, a significant portion of gene expression changes in the reperfused lobes were present in the non-ischemic lobes. However, the earliest reperfusion time, 30 minutes, showed a marked increase in the expression of a set of immediate-early genes (c-Fos, c-Jun, Atf3, Egr1) that was exclusive to the reperfused lobe. Similarities of gene expression changes in the reperfused and the non-ischemic lobes at each time suggest that hemodynamics and/or circulating factors are potent stimuli in an IR model. However, early reperfusion events appear to reflect a cell-autonomous response that may be protective, thereby representing potential targets to ameliorate IR injury.
