Résumé

Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MI/R) has been found to be one of the important risk factors for global cardiac mortality and morbidity. The study was conducted to inquire into the protective effect of 4-methylumbilliferon (4-MU) against MI/R in rats and clarify its potential underlying mechanism. Animals were divided into four groups (n = 15) including sham, MI/R, MI/R + vehicle, and MI/R + 4-MU. MI/R was established in Wistar rats by occluding the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery for 30 min. 4-MU (25 mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneally before the induction of reperfusion. Cardiac function, fibrosis, oxidant/antioxidant markers, and inflammatory cytokines were evaluated using echocardiography, ELISA, and Western blot assay. As a result of MI/R induction, a decrease in left ventricular contractile function occurred along with increased cardiac fibrosis and tissue damage. The serum levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-18 increased, while IL-10 decreased. Oxidant/antioxidant changes were evident with increased MDA levels and decreased GSH, SOD, and CAT in the MI/R group. Furthermore, the protein levels of TLR4, NF-κB, and NLRP3 were significantly increased in the heart tissue of MI/R group. Treatment with 4-MU significantly prevented the reduction of cardiac contractile function and its pathological changes as a result of MI/R by inhibiting the increase of serum inflammatory factors and improving the oxidant/antioxidant balance probably through the TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 axis. The results of a current study showed that 4-MU had a potential ability to attenuate the cardiac injury by reducing oxidative stress and inflammation in a TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3-dependent mechanism.
