Metabolomics study of APETx2 post-conditioning on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Acid-sensing ion channels are activated during myocardial ischemia and are implicated in the mechanism of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI). Acid-sensing ion channel 3 (ASIC3), the most pH-sensitive member of the ASIC family, is highly expressed in myocardial tissues. However, the role of ASIC3 in MIRI and its precise effects on the myocardial metabolome remain unclear. These unknowns might be related to the cardioprotective effects observed with APETx2 post-conditioning.

Method

Rat hearts subjected to Langendorff perfusion were randomly assigned to the normal (Nor) group, ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) group, ASIC3 blockade (AP) group. Rat hearts in group AP were treated with the ASIC3-specific inhibitor APETx2 (630 nM). Molecular and morphological change
