BACKGROUND: Dexmedetomidine (DEX) has been reported to protect the heart against ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury. However, the exact mechanisms are still not fully understood.
METHODS AND RESULTS: A rat cardiac I/R injury model was induced by ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery for 1 h and subsequent reperfusion for 2 h, and DEX was administered intravenously 30 min before ischemia. We confirmed that DEX treatment mitigated cardiac I/R injury. Interestingly, we found that DEX regulated the expression of bradykinin (BK) receptors (B1R and B2R) in rat hearts during I/R injury and enhanced the protective action of BK administered during reperfusion. Moreover, in vitro hypoxia reoxygenation (H/R) injury was induced in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (CMs), and DEX was administered 1 h before hypoxia. The in vitro findings were consistent with the in vivo experiments. We found that an α2-adrenoceptor (α2-AR) antagonist (yohimbine) completely aborted DEX-induced B1R and B2R regulation; an adenylyl cyclase (AC) agonist (forskolin) blocked B1R downregulation, while a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor (LY294002) blocked B2R upregulation. The above findings indicated that DEX interacted with α2-AR in cardiomyocytes, inhibited B1R expression via suppression of AC, and stimulated B2R expression via activation of PI3K.
CONCLUSIONS: DEX regulates BK receptor expression and potentiates the protection of BK in cardiac I/R injury, which suggests that modulating endogenous cardioprotective factors may play an important role in DEX-induced cardioprotection.
