Quercetin ameliorates ferroptosis of rat cardiomyocytes via activation of the SIRT1/p53/SLC7A11 signaling pathway to alleviate sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy

Sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SIC) is a manifestation of multiple organ failure as a result of sepsis and is a serious threat to life. Here, the effect and mechanisms of quercetin (QUE) in SIC were assessed. It was found that patients with SIC expressed lower serum levels of glutathione peroxidase...

Sumario:Sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SIC) is a manifestation of multiple organ failure as a result of sepsis and is a serious threat to life. Here, the effect and mechanisms of quercetin (QUE) in SIC were assessed. It was found that patients with SIC expressed lower serum levels of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and SIRT1 but higher levels of CK-MB, cTnI, TNF-α, and IL-6 compared with healthy individuals. A dose of 80 μM QUE increased the viability and reduced the ferroptosis of H9C2 cells treated with 1.0 μg/ml LPS in vitro. The administration of QUE decreased the levels of MDA, NADPH, lipid peroxidation and cytoplasmic cytochrome C and upregulated the levels of GSH and TOM 20, thus exerting an anti-oxidative effect via mediating SIRT1 expression. It also activated the SIRT1/p53/SLC7A11 signaling pathway to reduce cellular Fe(2+) and PTGS2 levels, decreased cell apoptosis rate, and upregulated the levels of GPX4 and ferritin to inhibit ferroptosis of H9C2 cells in vitro. Injection of QUE into rats activated the SIRT1/p53/SLC7A11 signaling pathway, reduced the levels of CK-MB, cTnI, inflammatory cell infiltration, MDA, NADPH, cytoplasmic cytochrome C, cellular Fe(2+), and PTGS2 but upregulated the levels of GSH, TOM 20, GPX4, and ferritin to alleviate SIC in a dose-dependent manner in vivo. To conclude, QUE exerted an anti-ferroptotic effect via activation of the SIRT1/p53/SLC7A11 signaling pathway to dampen SIC both in vivo and in vitro. These findings highlighted a potential therapeutic strategy for the management of SIC.
