Oxidative stress is the key factor of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI). Anthocyanins are considered to be effective anti-oxidants. In this study, we observed the anti-MIRI effect of petunidin, one member of anthocyanins, and further explored its mechanism. In present study, anoxia/reoxygenation (A/R) models were replicated on Langendorff-perfused heart and neonatal rat primary cardiomyocytes by A/R treatment. The hemodynamic parameters of isolated hearts were monitored. The levels of oxidative stress and apoptosis in isolated heart and neonatal rat primary cardiomyocytes were evaluated. The expression levels of NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX 2), NOX 4, B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2-associated X (Bax) and cytochrome c were detected by Western Blot. The results showed that petunidin could significantly improve isolated heart function, reduce oxidative stress, inhibit cardiomyocyte apoptosis, up-regulate Bcl-2 protein expression, down-regulate NOX4 and Bax expression, and reduce the level of cytoplasmic cytochrome c after A/R. However, it has no significant effect on NOX 2 protein expression, suggesting that NOX 4 may be the molecular target of petunidin. In vitro, petunidin had shown a consistent effect with that in isolated hearts. It also showed a significant inhibitory effect on reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. However, the protective effects of petunidin on A/R injury were attenuated by over-expression of NOX 4 in neonatal rat primary cardiomyocytes. These data suggested that the protective effects of petunidin on MIRI may be achieved through targeting NOX 4, thus inhibiting the production of ROS, reducing oxidative stress, and regulating the Bcl-2 pathway to prevent cardiomyocytes apoptosis.
