| Abstract |
Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (I/R) causes damage to cardiomyocytes through oxidative stress and apoptosis. We investigated the cardioprotective effects of MnTnBuOE-2-PyP5+ (BMX-001), a superoxide dismutase mimic, in an in vitro model of I/R injury in H9c2 cardiomyocytes. We found that BMX-001 protected against hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-induced oxidative stress, as evident by a significant reduction in intracellular and mitochondrial superoxide levels. BMX-001 pre-treatment also reduced H/R-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis, as marked by a reduction in TUNEL-positive cells. We further demonstrated that BMX-001 pre-treatment significantly improved mitochondrial function, particularly O2 consumption, in mouse adult cardiomyocytes subjected to H/R. BMX-001 treatment also attenuated cardiolipin peroxidation, 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) level, and 4-HNE adducted proteins following H/R injury. Finally, the pre-treatment with BMX-001 improved cell viability and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity in H9c2 cells following H/R injury. Our findings suggest that BMX-001 has therapeutic potential as a cardioprotective agent against oxidative stress-induced H/R damage in H9c2 cardiomyocytes.
