| 1 | Concepts of hypoxic NO signaling in remote ischemic preconditioning显示文摘Acute coronary syndromes remain a leading single cause of death worldwide. Therapeutic strategies to treat cardiomyocyte threatening ischemia/reperfusion injury are urgently needed. Remote ischemic preconditioning(r IPC) applied by brief ischemic episodes to heartdistant organs has been tested in several clinical studies, and the major body of evidence points to beneficial effects of r IPC for patients. The underlying signaling, however, remains incompletely understood. This relates particularly to the mechanism by which the protective signal is transferred from the remote site to the target organ. Many pathways have been forwarded but none can explain the protective effects completely. In light of recent experimental studies, we here outline the current knowledge relating to the generation of the protective signal in the remote organ, the signal transfer to the target organ and the transduction of the transferred signal into cardioprotection. The majority of studies favors a humoral factor that activates cardiomyocyte downstream signaling- receptor-dependent and independently. Cellular targets include deleterious calcium(Ca2+) signaling, reactive oxygen species, mitochondrial function and structure, and cellular apoptosis and necrosis. Following an outline of the existing evidence, we will furthermore characterize the existing knowledge and discuss future perspectives with particular emphasis on the interaction between the recently discovered hypoxic nitrite-nitric oxide signaling in r IPC. This refers to the protective role of nitrite, which can be activated endogenously using r IPC and which then contributes to cardioprotection by rIPC. | Matthias Totzeck Ulrike Hendgen-Cotta Tienush Rassaf | 2015 | World Journal of Cardiology2015,7,10: | 4 |
| 2 | Potential of dietary nitrate in angiogenesis显示文摘Endothelial dysfunction with impaired bioavailability of nitric oxide(NO) is the hallmark in the development of cardiovascular disease. Endothelial dysfunction leads to atherosclerosis, characterized by chronic inflammation of the arterial wall and stepwise narrowing of the vessel lumen. Atherosclerosis causes deprivation of adequate tissue blood flow with compromised oxygen supply. To overcome this undersupply, remodeling of the vascular network is necessary to reconstitute and sustain tissue viability. This physiological response is often not sufficient and therapeutic angiogenesis remains an unmet medical need in critical limb ischemia or coronary artery disease. Feasible approaches to promote blood vessel formation are sparse. Administration of pro-angiogenic factors, gene therapy, or targeting of micro RNAs has not yet entered the daily practice. Nitric oxide is an important mediator of angiogenesis that becomes limited under ischemic conditions and the maintenance of NO availability might constitute an attractive therapeutic target. Until recently it was unknown how the organism provides NO under ischemia. In recent years it could be demonstrated that NO can be formed independently of its enzymatic synthesis in the endothelium by reduction of inorganic nitrite under hypoxic conditions. Circulating nitrite derives from oxidation of NO or reduction of inorganic nitrate by commensal bacteria in the oral cavity. Intriguingly, nitrate is a common constituent of our everyday diet and particularly high concentrations are found in leafy green vegetables such as spinach, lettuce, or beetroot. Evidence suggests that dietary nitrate supplementation increases the regenerative capacity of ischemic tissue and that this effect may offer an attractive nutrition-based strategy to improve ischemia-induced revascularization. We here summarize and discuss the regenerative capacity of dietary nitrate on the vascular system. | Christos Rammos Peter Luedike Ulrike Hendgen-Cotta Tienush Rassaf | 2015 | World Journal of Cardiology2015,7,10: | 4 |
