Abstract

Cardiomyocytes injury has been considered as a key contributor for myocardial infarction (MI). Uric acid (UA) can induce cardiomyocytes injury, which is closely related to NLRP3 activation and inflammatory factor generation. However, the mechanism how UA modulates cardiomyocytes remains elusive. Western blotting and qRT-PCR were applied for measuring protein and mRNA expression, respectively. ROS production and Ca influx were measured by flow cytometry. Patch clamp technique was used for measuring transient receptor potential melastatin 2 (TRPM2) channel. Ligation of left anterior descending for 2 h was performed to induce MI animal model. The rats were treated by different concentration of uric acid. The artery tissues were stained by HE and collected for measurement of NLRP3 and inflammatory factors. Supplementation of UA significantly promoted apoptosis, and augmented the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1, chemoattractant protein-1, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, and NLRP3 inflammasome. Knockdown of NLRP3 reversed the influence of UA on MI by decreasing collagen deposition, fibrotic area, apoptosis. The expression of NLRP3 inflammasome increased markedly after treatment of UA. UA activated ROS/TRPM2/Ca pathway through targeting NLRP3. UA activated NLRP3 inflammasome and augments inflammatory factor production, which in turn exacerbates cardiomyocytes injury. Knockdown of NLRP3 reversed the influence of UA on apoptosis and cell cycle. UA may promote cardiomyocytes injury through activating NLRP3 inflammasome and ROS/TRPM2 channel/Ca pathway.
