Mechanism of salvianolic acid B protecting H9C2 from OGD/R injury based on mitochondrial fission and fusion
This study aims to investigate the effect of salvianolic acid B(Sal B),the active ingredient of Salvia miltiorrhiza,on H9C2 cardiomyocytes injured by oxygen and glucose deprivation/reperfusion(OGD/R)through regulating mitochondrial fission and fusion.The process of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury was simulated by establishing OGD/R model.The cell proliferation and cytotoxicity detection kit(cell counting kit-8,CCK-8)was used to detect cell viability;the kit method was used to detect intracellular reactive oxygen species(ROS),total glutathione(t-GSH),nitric oxide(NO)content,protein expression levels of mitochondrial fission and fusion,apoptosis-related detection by Western blot.Mitochondrial permeability transition pore(MPTP)detection kit and Hoechst 33342 fluorescence was used to observe the opening level of MPTP,and molecular docking technology was used to determine the molecular target of Sal B.The results showed that relative to control group,OGD/R injury reduced cell viability,increased the content of ROS,decreased the content of t-GSH and NO.Furthermore,OGD/R injury increased the protein expression levels of dynamin-related protein 1(Drp1),mitofusions 2(Mfn2),Bcl-2 associated X protein(Bax)and cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase 3(caspase 3),and decreased the protein expression levels of Mfnl,increased MPTP opening level.Compared with the OGD/R group,it was observed that Sal B had a protective effect at concentrations ranging from 6.25 to 100 μmol·L-1.Sal B decreased the content of ROS,increased the content of t-GSH and NO,and Western blot showed that Sal B decreased the protein expression levels of Drp1,Mfn2,Bax and caspase 3,increased the protein expression level of Mfn1,and decreased the opening level of MPTP.In summary,Sal B may inhibit the opening of MPTP,reduce cell apoptosis and reduce OGD/R damage in H9C2 cells by regulating the balance of oxidation and anti-oxidation,mitochondrial fission and fusion,thereby providing a scientific basis for the use of Sal B in the treatment of myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury.
