Gastrodin reduces myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury via transgelin2/CNPase-mediated apoptosis regulation.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) frequently occurs during rapid restoration of blood flow in the infarcted myocardium. While Gastrodin (GAS) mitigates MIRI, its mechanism requires further exploration.

Methods

We evaluated GAS effect in SD rats following 45-min left coronary artery ligation and reperfusion. GAS (intraperitoneal) was administered preoperatively for 3 days. Triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining was used to detect infarct size. The cardiac function was monitored by the Langendorff isolated cardiac perfusion system. Hematoxylin-Eosin (H&E) staining was applied to detect cardiac injury. H9c2 cells underwent oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD) and were subsequently restored to normal culture conditions, mimicking MIRI. Cell Counting
