主 题:myocardial infarction P2X3 inhibition gefapixant nucleotide-binding and oligomerization domain-like receptors family pyrin-domain-containing 3 inflammasome sympathetic nerve
摘 要:Objective The ATP responsive P2 purinergic receptors can be subdivided into metabotropic P2X family and ionotropic P2Y *** these,P2X3 is a type of P2X receptor which is specifically expressed on nerves,especially on pre-ganglionic sensory *** study investigates whether gefapixant possesses the potential of inhibiting cardiac sympathetic hypersensitivity to protect against cardiac remodeling in the context of myocardial *** The Sprague-Dawley rats were divided randomly into three groups:sham group-myocardial infarction group,and myocardial infarction with gefapixant treatment *** infarction was induced by left anterior descending branch *** gefapixant solution was intraperitoneally injected each time per day for 7 days and the appropriate dosage of gefapixant was determined according to the results of hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining and myocardial injury *** of cardiac function were assessed by echocardiograph and cardiac fibrosis was evaluated by Western blotting and immunofluorescence staining of collagen I and collagen *** sympathetic innervation was detected by norepinephrine concentration(pg/mL),in-vivo electrophysiology,and typical sympathetic *** cell infiltration was shown from immunofluorescence staining and pro-inflammatory signaling pathway activation was checked by immunohistology,quantitative realtime PCR(qPCR)and Western *** It was found that gefapixant injection of 10 mg/kg per day had the highest dosage-efficacy ***,gefapixant treatment improved cardiac pump function as shown by increased LVEF and LVFS,and decreased LVIDd and *** expression levels of collagen I and collagen III,and TNF-αwere all decreased by P2X3 ***,the decreased activation of nucleotide-binding and oligomerization domain-like receptors family pyrin-domain-containing 3(NLRP3)inflammasome and subsequent cleavage of caspase-1 which modula
