二氮嗪对长时程低温保存大鼠心脏Fas/FasL蛋白表达的影响

本文旨在研究线粒体ATP敏感性钾(mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channel,mitoKATP)通道开放剂二氮嗪(diazoxide,DE)对离体长时程低温保存的大鼠心脏促凋亡蛋白Fas和FasL表达的影响.利用Langendorff离体大鼠心脏灌注法,观察心脏在4 oC含或不含(对照组)DE的Celsior保存液保存8 h后,复灌期心脏作功量(rate-pressure product,RPP)变化情况,采用原位末端标记(TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling,TUNEL)染色法检测心肌细胞凋亡和免疫组织化学方法检测Fas和FasL蛋白表达情况.结果显示,在Celsior保存液中加入DE(30 pmol/L),复灌期RPP的恢复率在多个复灌时间点上优于对照组;同时可降低长时程低温保存心脏心肌细胞凋亡指数,减少Fas和FasL蛋白的表达.DE的上述作用可被mitoKAxr通道特异性阻断剂5.羟基葵酸盐(5-hydroxydecanoate,5-HD)所取消.以上结果提示,DE可能通过激活mitoKATP通道来减少Fas和FasL蛋白表达,从而减轻大鼠心肌缺血/再灌注损伤后的心肌细胞凋亡.

Effects of diazoxide on Fas/FasL protein expressions in rat myocardium suffered from long-term hypothermic preservation

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channel (mitoK(ATP)) opener, diazoxide (DE), on Fas/FasL protein expressions in rat heart suffered from long-term hypothermic preservation. The Langendorff isolated rat heart model was used. The hearts were stored in 4 °C Celsior solution with or without (control) DE for 8 h followed by 60 min of reperfusion. The recovery of rate-pressure product (RPP) was observed. Apoptotic cardiomyocytes were detected by TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) technique. The expressions of Fas/FasL proteins were also analyzed by immunohistochemical method. The results showed that compared with the control group, DE (30 mmol/L) increased the recovery of RPP during reperfusion, reduced the percentage of apoptotic cells and the expressions of Fas and FasL proteins in rat hearts suffered from 8 h of hypothermic preservation. The above effects of DE were attenuated by a mitoK(ATP) channel inhibitor 5-hydroxydecanoate (5-HD). These results indicate that DE could alleviate rat myocardial injury induced by ischemia-reperfusion through reducing the expressions of Fas and FasL proteins via opening of mitoK(ATP)channel.
