Salidroside protects against myocardial infarction via activating MIF-mediated mitochondrial quality control
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Salidroside is a potential therapeutic agent for myocardial infarction (MI), exerting therapeutic effects on macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF)-regulated mitochondrial quality control. Our aim was to explore the mechanism through which the MIF pathway regulates salidroside-mediated resistance to hypoxia-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis. METHODS: Ligation surgery of the left anterior descending branch of the coronary artery was employed to establish a myocardial infarction mouse model. Salidroside at low and high doses was administered to the mice for 4 weeks after the surgery. Cardiac function was evaluated via echocardiography. Morphological changes, apoptosis, and mitochondrial damage in the myocardium were examined. For the cell experiments, cardiomyocytes were treated with salidroside under oxygen‒glucose deprivation (OGD) conditions and were either treated with recombinant MIF (rMIF) or transfected with Mif-siRNA. Subsequently, mitochondrial quality control and apoptosis were assessed. RESULTS: Salidroside enhanced mitochondrial quality control in MI model mice, mitigated apoptosis and improved cardiac dysfunction. Transmission electron microscopy indicated that there were fewer damaged mitochondria in the salidroside-treated mice compared with the control mice. MIF and downstream mitochondrial quality control pathways were activated in the mice treated with salidroside. Consistently, the cell experiments demonstrated that salidroside and rMIF alleviated apoptosis, improved impaired mitochondrial quality control in OGD-induced cells and activated MIF signaling in OGD-induced cells. However, these effects of salidroside were partially blocked by Mif-siRNA transfection. CONCLUSION: Salidroside alleviated myocardial apoptosis and ameliorated cardiac dysfunction in MI model mice through the MIF pathway and downstream mitochondrial quality control.

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.
