The cardioprotective effects of secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury

Abstract: Protease enzymes generated from injured cells and leukocytes are the primary cause of myocardial cell damage following ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). The inhibition of protease enzyme activity via the administration of particular drugs may reduce injury and potentially save patients' lives. The aim of the current study was to investigate the cardioprotective effects of treatment with recombinant human secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (rhSLPI) on in vitro and ex vivo models of myocardial I/R injury. rhSLPI w… Show more

“…p38 pathway activation by MKK6 overexpression results in interstitial and perivascular cardiac fibrosis [ 74 ], and p38 inhibition may underlie the beneficial effects of some statins on cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction [ 75 , 76 ]. Supporting this idea, protease inhibitors induce cardioprotection in models of ischemia–reperfusion, in part by attenuating p38 phosphorylation, leading to reductions in injury, ROS levels, and infarct size [ 77 ].…”

“…Restoring blood flow to the ischemic myocardium is the most effective treatment to rescue ischemic myocardium cells and to save the life of the patient (6). However, this treatment can cause an abrupt restoration of the oxygen supply and the reperfusion of myocardium may aggravate myocardial injury, leading to a reperfusion injury (7,8). Therefore, it is necessary to explore and to better understand the potential molecular mechanism of myocardial I/R injury.…”

“…SLPI can also compete with NF-κB (p65) for binding to the DNA consensus binding site in the promotor region of NF-κB-regulated genes (2325, 29, 30). Furthermore, stimulation with SLPI was shown to attenuate p38 MAPK activation and increase Akt phosphorylation in rat adult ventricular myocytes (31). SLPI-deficient mice exhibit normal fetal development, survive into adulthood and show no obvious pathological phenotype (32).…”
