Published: October 2016

Ischemic postconditioning protects against reperfusion injury. Adjunctive use of manual thrombus aspiration improves reperfusion results in patients undergoing primary angioplasty. Combining both strategies (ischemic postconditioning and thrombus aspiration) may have additive effects in terms of myocardial salvage. The PORT trial will study the role of ischemic postconditioning in patients undergoing primary angioplasty with thrombus aspiration.

Article Synopsis
  • Ischemic post-conditioning (I-post C) is a method used to protect lung tissue from damage due to ischemia/reperfusion injury, but the exact mechanisms behind its protective effects are not well understood.
  • The study utilized RNA sequencing and various analyses to explore differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in rat lung tissues after treatment with I-post C, identifying significant pathways associated with inflammation and lung protection.
  • Results showed that I-post C reduced lung edema and inflammation, with 38 DEGs identified, including key molecules in inflammatory response and signaling pathways, notably downregulating certain inflammatory markers and pathways involved in neutrophil activation.

New alternative approaches to stroke treatment: the blood cell-derived secretome shows promise in individuals with obesity.

Ischaemic tolerance induced by remote ischaemic conditioning (RIC) has been extensively demonstrated in several preclinical models of cerebral ischaemia. However, animals with common stroke-related comorbidities do not benefit from the recent advances of RIC. Therefore, we investigated two alternative approaches for obese animals with stroke: (1) the efficacy of an additional round of the standard RIC protocol, and (2) the paracrine potential of the blood cell-derived secretome derived from RIC-induced healthy young rats.

Ischemic Postconditioning Regulates New Cell Death Mechanisms in Stroke: Disulfidptosis.

Background And Objective: Stroke poses a critical health issue without effective neuroprotection. We explore ischemic postconditioning's (IPostC) potential to mitigate stroke-induced brain injury, focusing on its interaction with disulfidptosis, a novel cell death pathway marked by protein disulfide accumulation. We aim to clarify IPostC's protective mechanisms against stroke through gene sequencing and experimental analysis in mice.

Astrocyte activation plays a pivotal role in accelerating the cascade of neuroinflammation associated with the development of hypoxic-ischemic brain injury. This study aimed to investigate the mechanism by which sevoflurane postconditioning mitigates neuronal damage through astrocytes by regulating reactive astrocytic Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 (STAT3) modifications. A modified Rice‒Vannucci model in rats and a conditioned culture system established by subjecting primary astrocytes to oxygen glucose deprivation, followed by using the conditioned medium to culture the neuron cell line SH-SY5Y were used to simulate HI insult in vivo and in vitro, respectively.
