Short, nonlethal ischemic episodes administered to hearts directly after ischemic events (ischemic postconditioning, IPost) have an advantage over ischemic preconditioning (IPC). The endogenous cytochrome P450 2J3/11,12-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (CYP2J3/11,12-EET) is upregulated by IPost, but not IPC, in the rat heart. The CYP epoxygenase inhibitor N-methylsulphonyl-6-(2-propargyloxyphenyl) hexanamide (MS-PPOH) reduces the cardioprotective effects of IPost, but not IPC. We proposed that upregulation of CYP2J3/11,12-EET during IPost induces cardioprotection by inhibiting cardiomyocyte apoptosis and that multiple apoptotic signals, including changes in mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) opening, mitochondrial cytochrome c leakage, caspase-3 levels, and levels of protective kinases such as Bcl-2 and Bax, are involved in the process. Neonatal rat cardiomyocytes underwent 3-h hypoxia followed by 2-, 5-, or 6-h reoxygenation (H/R) or three cycles of 5-min reoxygenation followed by 5-min hypoxia before 90-min reoxygenation (HPost); or were transfected with pcDNA3.1-CYP2J3 for 48 h before H/R; or were treated with MS-PPOH for 10 min before HPost. For HPost alone, pcDNA3.1-CYP2J3 transfection attenuated cardiomyocyte apoptosis to 68.4% (p < 0.05) of that with H/R. pcDNA3.1-CYP2J3 transfection significantly decreased MMP and inhibited mPTP opening induced by H/R, reduced mitochondrial cytochrome c leakage, cleaved caspase-3 protein expression, and increased the ratio of Bcl-2 to Bax expression. MS-PPOH abolished this effect. Therefore, upregulation of CYP2J3/11,12-EET during HPost is involved in cardioprotection by inhibiting apoptosis via a caspase-dependent pathway, and the apoptosis-suppressive effect may have important clinical implications during HPost.
⺠CYP2J3/11,12-EET upregulated during HPost but not HPC. ⺠Upregulation of CYP2J3/11,12-EET inhibited cardiomyocyte apoptosis. ⺠Upregulation of CYP2J3/11,12-EET decreased MMP and inhibited mPTP opening. ⺠Upregulation of CYP2J3/11,12-EET attenuated mitochondrial cytochrome c leakage and cleaved caspase-3 expression. ⺠The ratio of expression of Bcl-2 and Bax was also attenuated.
