Background: Myocardial infarction (MI) is a cardiovascular diseases, that seriously threatens human life. Signaling lymphocytic activation molecule family member 8 (SLAMF8) has been discovered to regulate the development and function of many immune cells. However, there are limited reports on SLAMF8 in the field of cardiopathy, and its regulatory role also remains unclear.

Methods: The mRNA and protein expressions of genes were examined through RT-qPCR and western blot. The infarct size in heart was assessed through TTC staining. The pathological section of heart tissue was evaluated through HE staining. The iron, Fe, MDA and SOD levels were assessed through the corresponding commercial kits. The ROS level was detected through Immunofluorescence (IF) staining. The cell viability and cell apoptosis were assessed through MTT assay and flow cytometry.

Results: Through GEO (GSE84796) database, SLAMF8 exhibited higher expression in heart failure patients. Furthermore, the ischemia/reperfusion SD rat (ischemia/reperfusion, I/R treatment) and H9C2 cell (hypoxia/reoxygenation, H/R treatment) models were set up. The mRNA and protein levels of SLAMF8 were upregulated in ischemia/reperfusion SD rat and H9C2 cell models. In addition, SLAMF8 inhibition alleviated ischemia/reperfusion-induced myocardial injury in SD rats. Moreover, SLAMF8 suppression inhibited ischemia/reperfusion-induced ferroptosis and oxidative stress. Further experiments were performed in H/R stimulated H9C2 cells, and the results showed that SLAMF8 knockdown alleviated H/R-induced cardiomyocyte death, ferroptosis and oxidative stress in H/R-induced cardiomyocyte. Lastly, SLAMF8 activated the TLR4/NOX4 pathway in I/R treated-SD rats or H/R treated-H9C2 cells.

Conclusion: SLAMF8 aggravated ischemia/reperfusion-induced ferroptosis and injury in cardiomyocyte. This discovery may provide a useful bio-target for MI treatment.

Article Synopsis
  • The Daqinjiao decoction (DQJT) has a long history of use in stroke treatment, but its mechanisms remained largely unknown before this study.
  • The study aimed to explore how DQJT alleviates brain injury caused by cerebral ischemia/reperfusion by using methods like HPLC for component analysis and MCAO/R models for efficacy testing.
  • Results indicated that DQJT effectively reduces brain damage and improves metabolic pathways, focusing on lipid metabolism and specific signaling pathways, ultimately revealing its role in inhibiting cell death processes through the modulation of several key pathways.

2'-Hydroxycinnamaldehyde (HCA), a natural product isolated from the bark of , has anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor activities. In this study, we explored whether HCA preconditioning could protect the heart against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced oxidative injury through cytosolic Bcl-2-associated athanogene 3 (BAG3) upregulation. In vivo HCA preconditioning was performed intraperitoneally in adult male Wistar rats (50 mg/kg body weight) three times/week for 2 weeks before cardiac I/R injury.

Cardamonin Attenuates Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion-Induced Ferroptosis Through Promoting STAT3 Signaling.

Objective: Ferroptosis is intricately associated with the pathophysiology processes of myocardial ischemia. Cardamonin (CAR) has been shown to provide significant protection against tissue damage due to multiple ischemia/reperfusion. This study aimed to examine the cardioprotective properties of CAR in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MIRI) and provide insights into the possible mechanisms involved.

Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury has been demonstrated to exert a significant role in acute myocardial infarction (AMI), which constitutes a crucial cause of AMI. Ferroptosis represents a novel form of cell death that is intimately linked to myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MIR) injury. Urolithin A (UA), an intestinal metabolite of ellagitannins, has not been fully elucidated for its role in MIR injury.

Dual-responsive renal injury cells targeting nanoparticles for vitamin E delivery to treat ischemia reperfusion-induced acute kidney injury.

Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) is an important inducer of acute kidney injury (AKI), and triggers the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2), exacerbating kidney damage. Given the immense potential of vitamin E (VitE) as a natural fat-soluble antioxidant in kidney protection, we designed the nanoparticles (NPs) that could dual respond to ROS and MMP2, aiming to accurately deliver VitE to renal injury cells. The NPs utilized Gel-SH as a sensitive receptor for MMP2 and diselenide as a sensitive receptor for ROS, while PEG modification enhanced biocompatibility and prevented phagocytosis mediated by the mononuclear phagocyte system.
