| Abstract | Vasostatin-1 (VS-1) plays important roles in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. We have explored the protective effects of VS-1 on cardiomyocytes using cardiomyocyte-endothelial cells Transwell Co-culture System. Cardiomyocytes and rat aortic endothelial cells (RAECs) were prepared from ventricles and thoraco-abdominal aorta of Sprague-Dawley rats. The experiment used cardiomyocytes alone culture group (C) and cardiomyocytes-RAECs co-culture group (T), each with three subgroups: C-Ad-Null, C-Ad-VS-1, C-Hb (Ad-VS-1 + NO scavenger Hb), or T-Ad-Null, T-Ad-VS-1 transfection, T-Hb. After 48 h incubation, all groups were treated with hypoxia for 60 min and then reoxygenated for 120 min. We also investigated endothelial cells-mediated cardiomyocytes protection. RAECs were treated with hypoxia for 30 min and reoxygenated with normal cardiomyocytes for 120 min. The cardiomyocytes apoptosis rate, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and creatine kinase isozyme MB (CK-MB) were recorded. As expected, cardiomyocytes apoptosis, AST and CK-MB were significantly increased in the T-Ad-Null group than in the C-Ad-Null group. VS transfection significantly reduced these levels. However, apoptosis, AST and CK-MB levels were increased again after Hb treatment, returning to the similar level of the C-Ad-null group in the C-Hb group, but still significantly lower in the T-Hb group compared with the T-Ad-null group. RAEC injury caused cardiomyocyte injury, and VS-1 transfection of the RAEC decreased apoptosis and the levels of AST and CK-MB. The findings suggest that VS-1 exerts protective effects on the cardiomyocytes directly or indirectly by cardiomyocyte-endothelial cells interaction. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
