Mechanisms of oxidative stress in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury and protective effects of traditional Chinese medicines
Myocardial ischemia is a disease characterized by high morbidity and mortality rates,restoring blood supply to the ischemic area through reperfusion is an effective intervention method.However,numerous studies have shown that reperfusion may cause severe myocardial damage,resulting in myocardial systolic and diastolic dysfunction and seriously affecting myocardial function.This phenomenon is called myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury(MIRI).The physiological and pathological mechanisms of MIRI include oxidative stress,calcium overload,autophagy,pyrolysis,endoplasmic reticulum stress,apoptosis,etc.Oxidative stress plays an important role in MIRI-related cell death and is considered to be the main mechanism of MIRI.The occurrence of oxidative stress is mainly due to the excessive production of reactive oxygen species(ROS),which disrupts the balance of the redox system of the body or tissue.A large number of highly reactive ROS exceed the antioxidant defense capacity of cardiomyocytes,causing modifications in biological macromolecules such as DNA and proteins and resulting in severe reactions like DNA damage,protein dysfunction,cell damage or death,and local inflammation.Oxidative stress mediates apoptosis,autophagy,and inflammatory injury through various pathways,resulting in irreversible cardiomyocyte injury and myocardial dysfunction,which brings significant challenges for clinical treatment and prognosis.In recent years,remarkable progress has been made in understanding oxidative stress in ischemia reperfusion(I/R)injury of different organs and tissue.However,the injury mechanism caused by oxidative stress in restoring blood supply to the ischemic area and the protective effect of TCM remain largely unexplored.This article reviewed the role of oxidative stress in MIRI,the main production pathways of ROS,and the protective effects of TCM on oxidative stress injury during ischemic myocardial reperfusion,so as to provide a reference for future research and clinical treatment in this field.
