RÉSUMÉ

Abstract Compound Danshen Dripping Pills (CDDPs) have been used in clinical treatment to protect the heart from ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury for many years. However, the underlying mechanism implicated in the protective effects remains to be explored. Here, we determined the effects of CDDPs in Sprague-Dawley rats with the IR model. Cardiac function in vivo was assessed by echocardiography. Transmission electron microscopy, histological and immunohistochemical techniques, Western blotting and recombinant adeno-associated virus 9 transfection were used to illustrate the effects of CDDPs on IR and autophagy. Our results showed that pretreatment with CDDPs decreased the level of serum myocardial enzymes and infarct size in rats after IR. Apoptosis evaluation showed that CDDPs significantly ameliorated the cardiac apoptosis level after IR. Meanwhile, CDDPs pretreatment increased myocardial autophagic flux, with upregulation of LC3B, downregulation of p62, and increased autophagosomes and autolysosomes. Moreover, the autophagic flux inhibitor chloroquine could increase IR injury, while CDDPs could partially reverse the effects. Furthermore, our results showed that the activation of AMPK/mTOR was involved in the cardioprotective effect exerted by CDDPs. Herein, we suggest that CDDPs partially protect the heart from IR injury by enhancing autophagic flux through the activation of AMPK/mTOR.

RÉSUMÉ

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the drug resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii (AB) producing VIM-2-type metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) isolated from burn patients of our ward against carbapenem antibiotics and its homology.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A total of 400 strains of AB (identified) were isolated from sputum, urine, blood, pus, and wound drainage. of burn patients hospitalized in our ward from September 2011 to March 2014. Drug resistance of the 400 strains of AB to 15 antibiotics, including compound sulfamothoxazole, aztreonam, etc. , was tested using the automatic microorganism identifying and drug sensitivity analyzer. Among the carbapenems-resistant AB isolates, modified Hodge test was applied to screen carbapenemase-producing strains. The carbapenemase genes of the carbapenemase-producing strains, and the mobile genetic elements class I-integron (Intl1) gene and conserved sequence (CS) of carbapenemase-producing strains carrying blaVIM-2 gene were determined with PCR and DNA sequencing. For carbapenemase-producing strains carrying blaVIM-2 gene, synergism test with imipenem-ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) and enhancement test with imipenem-EDTA and ceftazidime-EDTA were used to verify the MBL-producing status. Drug resistance of the VIM-2-type MBL-producing AB strains was analyzed. For VIM-2-type MBL-producing AB strains, plasmid conjugation experiment was used to explore the transfer of plasmid; outer membrane protein (OMP) CarO gene was detected by PCR. For VIM-2-type MBL-producing AB strains carrying CarO gene, the protein content of CarO was analyzed with sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electro- phoresis. The repetitive consensus sequence of Enterobacteriaceae genome PCR (ERIC-PCR) was carried out for gene typing of VIM-2-type MBL-producing AB strains to analyze their homology.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>(1) The resistant rates of the 400 strains of AB against levofloxacin and compound sulfamethoxazole were low. A total of 381 carbapenems-resistant AB strains were screened, including 240 carbepenemase-producing strains. (2) Out of the 240 carbepenemase-producing strains, 18 strains were found to harbor the blaVIM-2 gene, accounting for 7.5%; 133 strains carried the blaTEM-1 gene, accounting for 55.42%; 195 strains carried the blaOXA23 gene, accounting for 81.25%; 188 strains carried the bla(armA) gene, accounting for 78.33%. (3) Eighteen carbepenemase-producing strains which carried the bla(VIM-2) gene were found to carry the Intl1 gene, showing the Intl1-VIM linkage. Simultaneously, Intl1 variable area CS showed diversity. (4) Eighteen carbepenemase-producing strains which carried the blaVIM-2 gene were verified to produce MBL. The resistant rates of the 18 strains of AB against compound sulfamethoxazole were the lowest, followed by levofloxacin and cefoperazone/sulbactam, and those against the other antibiotics were above 60.00%. (5) Through multiple joint tests, plasmid conjugation experiment positive transfer strain was not found in 18 VIM-2-type MBL-producing AB strains. (6) Nine out of the 18 VIM-2-type MBL-producing AB strains were found to carry CarO gene. The OMP CarO of VIM-2-type MBL-producing AB strains carrying CarO gene was lost or lowered in the protein content. (7) The 18 VIM-2-type MBL-producing AB strains were classified into 6 genotypes by the ERIC-PCR. There were respectively 6, 4, 3, and 1 stain (s) in genotypes A, B, C, and F, and there were 2 strains in genotypes D and E respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The resistance mechanism of AB against carbapenems is mainly mediated by blaTEM-1, blaOXA-23, and bla(arma); meanwhile, VIM-2-type MBL-producing and lack or change in OMP CarO are attributable to carbapenems resistance of clinically isolated AB from burn wards, and the Intl1 gene may take a part in blaVIM-2 gene transmission.</p>
