Objective: To investigate the protective effect of Ploygonati Odorati Rhizoma (PORE) extract against mitochondrial damage and apoptosis in myocardial cells of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats. Method: Sixty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into sham operation group
model group
PORE group and ginkgolide B group. Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion model was established through the reversible left anterior descending coronary artery ligation
and the rats were provided with the myocardial ischemia for 30 min and the reperfusion for 120 min. 30 min before ligation
the PORE group was given 100
200
300 mg·kg-1 ip PORE
and the ginkgolide B group were given 60 mg·kg-1 ip
the model group and the sham operation group were given the same volume of saline ip; Hemodynamic indexes of the rats were record. The apoptosis of ventricular myocytes in each group was observed by terminal-deoxynucleoitidyl transferose mediated nick end labeling(TUNEL) staining. The morphology and pathological changes of myocardial mitochondria were observed by transmission electron microscopy. The levels of free fatty acid (FFA)
adenosine monophosphate (ATP)
adenosine monophosphate (AMP)
lactate (LAC) in myocardium of the rats were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The protein expressions of cysteine aspartate-specific protease(Caspase)-3
9 and 12 in ventricular myocytes were detected by Western blot. Myocardial mitochondria were isolated for the determination of free calcium content. Result: Compared with the sham operation group
the left ventricular systolic pressure and the maximal rising rate of left ventricular pressure were decreased in the model group; the left ventricular end diastolic pressure
and the maximum descending rate of left ventricular pressure were increased. Myocardial apoptosis was obvious. The contents of FFA and LAC in myocardium were increased
the expressions of Caspase-3
9 and 12 were increased
the ratio of ATP/AMP was decreased
the mitochondrial membrane was disintegrated
and the inner crest was disappeared; compared with the model group
the hemodynamic parameters
myocardial cell apoptosis and myocardial mitochondrial pathological changes of the PORE groups and the ginkgolide B group were improved
the levels of FFA and LAC in myocardial tissue and the levels of Caspase-3
9
12 were decreased
and the ratio of ATP/AMP was increased (P<0.05). Conclusion: PORE can improve myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury and reduce myocardial apoptosis
the mechanism may be related to the protection of mitochondria and the enhancement of myocardial cell mitochondrial energy metabolism.
