Interventions that reduce infarct size in animal models have largely failed to improve outcome in patients suffering acute myocardial infarction (MI), or 'heart attack'. Our group recently reported a reduction of infarct size by chloramphenicol treatment in a porcine in vivo model of acute MI, through a mechanism involving the induction of autophagy. Since 2005 several studies have implicated autophagy as a target for cardioprotection.
干预措施可减少动物模型中的梗塞面积,但在急性心肌梗死(MI)或“心脏病发作”患者中,这些措施在改善患者预后方面基本上都没有效果。我们的研究小组最近报告称,在猪急性 MI 的体内模型中,通过诱导自噬,氯霉素治疗可减少梗塞面积。自 2005 年以来,已有多项研究表明自噬是心脏保护的一个靶点。
