萝卜硫素激活ERK/NRF1信号通路改善心肌梗死大鼠心室重构的研究OA北大核心CSTPCD

Objective:To investigate the influence of sulforaphane(SFN)on ventricular remodeling in myocardial infarction(MI)rat model by regulating extracellular regulated protein kinase(ERK)/nuclear respiratory factor 1(NRF1)signaling pathway.Methods:Among 48 SD male rats,12 were randomly selected as Sham group.The remaining rats were treated with ligation of left ante-rior descending coronary artery to establish myocardial infarction model.After modeling,36 rats were randomly divided into MI model group,SFN treatment group(10 mg/kg),SFN+SCH772984(ERK inhibitor)group(10 mg/kg+15 mg/kg),with 12 rats in each group.Animal ultrasound was performed to detect cardiac structure and function.Histological analysis was performed to evaluate myo-cardial fibrosis and cell apoptosis.ELISA was used to measure pro-inflammatory factor levels in serum,and Western blot assay was used to observe the expression of ERK/NRF1 pathway related proteins in myocardium of rats in each group.Results:Compared with rats in Sham group,rats in MI model group showed a loss of myocardial compliance and disarray of ventricular myocardial fibers,along with increased myocardial fibrosis and myocardial cell apoptosis.Moreover,rats in MI model group also exhibited overactive inflammatory response and inhibition of the ERK/NRF1 signaling pathway in cardiac tissues(P<0.05).Notably,SFN treatment signifi-cantly not only improved cardiac function,but also ameliorated myocardial fibrosis and cell apoptosis(P<0.05).SFN treatment inhib-ited inflammatory cytokine expression and activated the ERK/NRF1 pathway as well(P<0.05).However,SCH772984 significantly abrogated the protective effect of SFN against myocardial fibrosis and apoptosis in MI rats.Conclusion:SFN may protect against ventricular remodeling in MI rat by activating ERK/NRF1 pathway.
