Targeting TLR4 with ApTOLL Improves Heart Function in Response to Coronary Ischemia Reperfusion in Pigs Undergoing Acute Myocardial Infarction

Abstract: Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) contributes to the pathogenesis of coronary ischemia/reperfusion (IR). To test whether the new TLR4 antagonist, ApTOLL, may prevent coronary IR damage, we administered 0.078 mg/kg ApTOLL or Placebo in pigs subjected to IR, analyzing the levels of cardiac troponins, matrix metalloproteinases, pro-, and anti-inflammatory cytokines, heart function, and tissue integrity over a period of 7 days after IR. Our results show that ApTOLL reduced cardiac troponin-1 24 h after administration, i… Show more

“…The interaction between CCR1 and MCHR 1 (melanin-concentrating hormone receptor 1) was upregulated in the adipose tissue, which promoted fat accumulation ( Kring et al, 2008 ). However, the activation of CCR1 inhibited the expression of CXCL 11 (C–X–C motif chemokine 11) and consequently alleviated heart inflammation ( Ramirez-Carracedo et al, 2020 ).…”

“…We detected a total of 36 human cytokines, chemokines, and acute phase proteins simultaneously from the serum of pigs and mice at the times indicated, by using the Proteome Pro ler Cytokine Array Kit (RD Systems, Minneapolis, MN) a membrane-based antibody array for the parallel determination of the relative levels of selected human cytokines and chemokines, as described [9].…”

“…Even though in ammation is a critical component of tissue healing, currently more contributions point towards a prolonged in ammatory response can compromise myocardial structure and function due to an adverse left ventricle remodelling, causing HF [6][7][8]. Therefore, targeting the in ammatory response may represent a promising strategy to prevent adverse outcomes after AMI [9].…”

“…Proteolysis of the extracellular matrix leads to cardiac necrosis during the onset and progression of myocardial infarction. Among others, Extracellular Matrix Metalloproteases (MMPS), and the MMP inducer EMMPRIN, play a significant role in myocardial infarction [11]. However, MMPs and EMMPRIN are also cargo components of many MVs involved in the migration and proliferation of several cancer and epithelial cells [12][13][14][15].…”
