Objective:To investigate the effects of CGRP on mitochondrial membrane potential of cardiomyocytes in hypoxia/reoxygenation SD rats.To investigate the protective mechanism of CGRP on hypoxia/reoxygenation injury of cardiomyocytes by various drug interventions in cardiomyocytes cultured in vitro.Methods:Part 1:Cardiomyocytes were cultured in vitro and identified.The cardiomyocytes were from 1-3 days old SD rats and cultured for 3 days.The cardiomyocytes were identified by immunocytochemical SABC method.Part 2:to observe the changes of mitochondrial membrane potential of cardiomyocytes under different drug interventions.Establishing hypoxic/reoxygenation(H/R)model of cardiomyocytes.Cardiomyocytes were randomly divided into 8 groups,3 wells each:blank control group(control group);hypoxia/reoxygenation group(hypoxia/reoxygenation group,H/R group);CGRP+H/R group(CGRP group);CGRP receptor antagonist CGRP8-37+CGRP+H/R group(CGRP8-37 group);mitochondrial KATP channel(mitoKATP)agonist diazoxide+H/R group(DZ group);mitoKATP specific blocker 5-hydroxydecanoate+CGRP+H/R group(5-HD group);protein kinase A(PKA)inhibitor H-89+CGRP+H/R group(H-89 group);protein kinase C(PKC)inhibitor chelerythine+CGRP+H/R group(CHE group).The mitochondrial membrane potential of each group of myocardial cells was detected by jc-1.Results:The rat cardiomyocytes were successfully cultured and the hypoxia/reoxygenation model was successfully established,too.Compared with the control group,the mitochondrial membrane potential was significantly decreased in the H/R group;CGRP pretreatment increased the mitochondrial membrane potential of H/R cardiomyocytes.Compared with the blank group,the red/green fluorescence ratio of the H/R group was significantly lower(P<0.01);compared with the H/R group,the red/green fluorescence ratio of the CGRP group and the DZ group was significantly higher(P<0.01);Compared with the CGRP group,the red/green fluorescence ratio of the CGRP8-37 group,the 5-HD group and the CHE group was all decreased(P<0.05).Conclusion:H/R treatment significantly reduced mitochondrial membrane potential in cardiomyocytes;CGRP pretreatment increased mitochondrial membrane potential and thus protected H/R cardiomyocytes;CGRP pretreatment may activate mitoKATPTP channels;PKC may be involved in the process of CGRP pretreatment to increase mitochondrial membrane potential in H/R cardiomyocytes. |
