ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Previous studies proved that pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3)-induced pyroptosis plays an important role in Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI). Insulin can inhibit the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome, although the exact mechanism remains unclear. The aim of this study was to determine whether insulin reduces NLRP3-induced pyroptosis by regulating pyruvate dehydrogenase E1alpha subunit (PDHA1) dephosphorylation during MIRI.METHODS:
Rat hearts were subject to 30 min global ischemia followed by 60 min reperfusion, with or without 0.5 IU/L insulin. Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury was evaluated by measuring myocardial enzymes release, Cardiac hemodynamics, pathological changes, infarct size, and apoptosis rate. Cardiac aerobic glycolysis was evaluated by measuring ATP, lactic acid content, and pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDHc) activity in myocardial tissue. Recombinant adenoviral vectors for PDHA1 knockdown were constructed. Pyroptosis-related proteins were measured by Western blotting analysis, immunohistochemistry staining, and ELISA assay, respectively.RESULTS:
It was found that insulin significantly reduced the area of myocardial infarction, apoptosis rate, and improved cardiac hemodynamics, pathological changes, energy metabolism. Insulin inhibits pyroptosis-induced inflammation during MIRI. Subsequently, Adeno-associated virus was used to knock down cardiac PDHA1 expression. Knockdown PDHA1 not only promoted the expression of NLRP3 but also blocked the inhibitory effect of insulin on NLRP3-mediated pyroptosis in MIRI.CONCLUSIONS:
Results suggest that insulin protects against MIRI by regulating PDHA1 dephosphorylation, its mechanism is not only to improve myocardial energy metabolism but also to reduce the NLRP3-induced pyroptosis.Palavras-chave
