Cardioprotective Action of a Novel Synthetic 19,20-EDP Analog Is Sirt Dependent
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT: Mounting evidence suggests that cytochrome P450 epoxygenase-derived metabolites of docosahexaenoic acid, called epoxydocosapentaenoic acids (EDPs), limit mitochondrial damage after cardiac injury. In particular, the 19,20-EDP regioisomer has demonstrated potent cardioprotective action. Thus, we investigated our novel synthetic 19,20-EDP analog SA-22 for protection against cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury. Isolated C57BL/6J mouse hearts were perfused through Langendorff apparatus for 20 minutes to obtain baseline function, followed by 30 minutes of global ischemia. Hearts were then treated with vehicle, 19,20-EDP, SA-22, or SA-22 with the pan-sirtuin inhibitor nicotinamide or the SIRT3-selective inhibitor 3-(1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl) pyridine (3-TYP) at the start of 40 minutes reperfusion (N = 5-8). We assessed IR injury-induced changes in recovery of myocardial function, using left ventricular developed pressure and systolic and diastolic pressure change. Tissues were assessed for electron transport chain function, SIRT1 and SIRT3, optic atrophy type 1, and caspase-1. We also used H9c2 cells in an in vitro model of hypoxia/reoxygenation injury (N = 3-6). Hearts perfused with SA-22 had significantly improved postischemic left ventricular developed pressure, systolic and diastolic recovery (64% of baseline), compared with vehicle control (15% of baseline). In addition, treatment with SA-22 led to better catalytic function observed in electron transport chain and SIRT enzymes. The protective action of SA-22 resulted in reduced activation of pyroptosis in both hearts and cells after injury. Interestingly, although nicotinamide cotreatment worsened functional outcomes, cell survival, and attenuated sirtuin activity, it failed to completely attenuate SA-22-induced protection against pyroptosis, possibly indicating EDPs exert cytoprotection through pleiotropic mechanisms. In short, these data demonstrate the potential of our novel synthetic 19,20-EDP analog, SA-22, against IR/hypoxia-reoxygenation injury and justify further development of therapeutic agents based on 19,20-EDP.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
