Triiodothyronine (T-3), the biologically active form of thyroid hormone, was reported to protect myocardium from ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury when given before sustained ischemia, but its cardioprotective effects when given at the onset of reperfusion (postconditioning), a protocol with more clinical impact is unknown. Therefore, the present study was designed to determine whether T-3 postconditioning (THPostC) is able to protect the heart from reperfusion injury and its underlying mechanisms. Isolated Sprague-Dawley rat hearts were subjected to 30 min ischemia/45 min reperfusion, triiodothyronine was delivered at the first 5 min of reperfusion. Our data shown that T-3 from 1 to 10 mu M during the first 5-min of reperfusion concentration-dependently improved post-ischemic myocardial function. A similar protection was observed in isolated rat cardiomyocytes characterized by the alleviation of I/R-induced loss of mitochondrial membrane potential and exacerbated cell death. Moreover, mitophagy (selectively recognize and remove damaged mitochondria) was significantly stimulated by myocardial I/R, which was enhanced with THPostC. Meanwhile, we found that THPostC stimulated PINK1/Parkin pathway, a critical regulator for mitophagy. Then, adenoviral knockdown of PINK1 and Parkin conformed its roles in the THPostC-mediated cardioprotection. Our results suggest that THPostC confers cardioprotection against I/R injury at least in part by reinforcing PINK1-dependent mitophagy. These findings reveal new roles and mechanisms of triiodothyronine in the cardioprotection against I/R injury.
