Lysophosphatidic acid contributes to myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury by activating TRPV1 in spinal cord.

ABSTRACT: Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a bioactive phospholipid that plays a crucial role in cardiovascular diseases. Here, we question whether LPA contributes to myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury by acting on transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) in spinal cord. By ligating the left coronary artery to establish an in vivo I/R mouse model, we observed a 1.57-fold increase in LPA level in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). The I/R-elevated CSF LPA levels were reduced by HA130, an LPA synthesis inhibitor, compared to vehicle treatment (4.74 ± 0.34 vs. 6.46 ± 0.94 μg/mL, p = 0.0014). Myocardial infarct size was reduced by HA130 treatment compared to the vehicle group (26 ± 8% vs. 46 ± 8%, p = 0.0001). To block the interaction of LPA with TRPV1 at the K710 site, we generated a K710N
