Abstract

To determine therapeutic effect of Qishen Huoxue Granule (QHG) on the myocardial injury in sepsis and whether it is through the inhibition of excessive autophagy by using network pharmacological analysis and in vitro.120 SPF male Wistar rats were divided into 6 groups. Firstly, the function of the heart were evaluated through echocardiography, and pathological changes of myocardial tissue was observed by Hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Subsequently, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was employed to measure the levels of myocardial injury markers (cTnT and BNP) and inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α and IL-1β). Finally, the expression of proteins associated with the MasR/PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway and autophagy-related proteins was evaluated using immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, RT-qPCR, and Western blot analysis.The results demonstrated that QHG significantly improved systolic function in rats, reduced levels of myocardial injury markers and inflammatory cytokines, and downregulated autophagy-related genes (ATG5, LC3, and Beclin1). However, when QHG was combined with inhibitors of the MasR/PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway, the mRNA and protein expression levels of pathway components were reduced. Concurrently, the mRNA and protein expressions of autophagy indicators were upregulated, counteracting the inhibitory effect of QHG on excessive autophagy.QHG ameliorated the myocardial injury in sepsis rats by inhibiting the excessive autophagy in myocardial cells via activating the MasR/PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway.

摘要

通过网络药理学分析和体外实验,确定芪参活血颗粒(QHG)对脓毒症心肌损伤的治疗作用以及是否通过抑制过度自噬发挥作用。将120只SPF级雄性Wistar大鼠分为6组。首先,通过超声心动图评估心脏功能,并用苏木精-伊红(H&E)染色和透射电子显微镜(TEM)观察心肌组织的病理变化。随后,采用酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA)法检测心肌损伤标志物(cTnT和BNP)和炎性细胞因子(TNF-α和IL-1β)水平。最后,运用免疫组织化学、免疫荧光、RT-qPCR和蛋白质免疫印迹分析评估与MasR/PI3K-AKT-mTOR通路相关蛋白及自噬相关蛋白的表达。结果表明,QHG可显著改善大鼠的收缩功能,降低心肌损伤标志物和炎性细胞因子水平,并下调自噬相关基因(ATG5、LC3和Beclin1)。然而,当QHG与MasR/PI3K-AKT-mTOR通路抑制剂联合使用时,该通路组分的mRNA和蛋白表达水平降低。同时,自噬指标的mRNA和蛋白表达上调,抵消了QHG对过度自噬的抑制作用。QHG通过激活MasR/PI3K-AKT-mTOR通路抑制心肌细胞过度自噬,从而改善脓毒症大鼠的心肌损伤。
