| Abstract: | AIM: To investigate the changes of endogenous cystathionine-γ-lyase/hydrogen sulfide pathway on hypoxia/reoxygenation injury in vivo and to explore the relationship between this pathway and hypoxia/reoxygenation injury. METHODS: Primary myocardial cell culture in vivo came from Wistar baby rats born less than 48 h. The cells were under the conditions of hypoxia (2% O2, 5% CO2) for 3 h and reoxygenation (21% O2, 5% CO2) for 2 h to induce hypoxia/reoxygenation injury. MTT was used to detect the cell survival in every group. The activities of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in culture medium, malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in myocardial cells were measured with colorimetry method. RT-PCR method was used to test CSE mRNA expression in myocardial cells. RESULTS: Compared to IR group, the cells in NaHS+IR and IR+NaHS groups had a higher survival rate, lower LDH concentration in culture medium, higher SOD activity and lower MDA in myocardial cells. At the same time, the results of RT-PCR displayed that CSE mRNA were down-regulated in myocardial cells after hypoxia/reoxygenation injury, and if CSE inhibitor PPG was added into the culture medium before hypoxia, no protective effects were detected. CONCLUSION: NaHS might protect the myocardial cells from hypoxia/reoxygenation injury through decreasing oxygen free radical production and stabilizing the cell membrane. |
