Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) produces cardioprotection by phosphorylation of glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) that inhibits the opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP). The activity of glycogen GSK-3β is elevated during diabetes mellitus (DM). This study investigated the role of GSK-3β in attenuation of cardioprotective effect of IPC in diabetic rat. DM was induced by single administration of streptozotocin (STZ, 50 mg/kg, i.p.). Isolated perfused heart was subjected to 30 min of ischemia followed by 120 min of reperfusion. Myocardial infarct size was estimated by triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) was analyzed in coronary effluent. IPC significantly decreased myocardial infarct size and release of LDH and CK-MB from normal rat heart. The cardioprotective effect of IPC was significantly attenuated in diabetic rat. Four episodes of preconditioning by either of GSK-3β inhibitors, lithium chloride (LiCl, 20 mM), indirubin-3 monooxime (1 μM), and SB216763 (3 μM) significantly reduced the LDH and CK-MB release and decreased infarct size in diabetic rat heart. Perfusion of atractyloside, an opener of MPTP, significantly attenuated, the cardioprotective effect of IPC in normal rat heart, and of GSK-3β inhibitor induced preconditioning in the DM rat heart. Our results suggest that preconditioning with GSK-3β inhibitors in diabetic rat heart may provide a more consistent cardioprotection, as compared to IPC. Also, the mechanism of diabetes mellitus-induced attenuation of cardioprotective effect of IPC involves activation of GSK-3β, due to impaired protective upstream signaling pathways and opening of MPTP during reperfusion.
