[Abstract]
Objective To explore the effect and mechanism of cryptotanshinone on alleviating isoproterenol (ISO)-induced myocardial fibrosis (MF) in rats through regulating the Janus kinase 2/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (JAK2/STAT3) signaling pathway. Methods Sixty male SD rats were randomly divided into the control group, the model group, the captopril (6.75 mg·kg-1,positive control) group, and the cryptotanshinone low-dose (40 mg·kg-1) and high-dose (80 mg·kg-1) groups, with 12 rats in each group. Except for the control group, ISO 5 mg·kg-1 was subcutaneously injected into the back of rats at a fixed time every day for 10 consecutive days to establish the MF model. Rats in each group were intragastrically administered drugs 1 h before ISO injection every day for four weeks, while the control group and the model group were given the same volume of distilled water instead of drugs. Echocardiography was used to evaluate the cardiac function of rats, including left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVIDd), left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVIDs), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS). The heart coefficient and heart-tibia ratio were measured. The levels of serum tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The contents of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in myocardial tissue were measured by colorimetric assay. HE and Masson staining were used to observe myocardial inflammation and fibrosis, and the collagen volume fraction (CVF) was calculated. The expressions of collagen type I and III (Col I and Col III) were detected by immunohistochemistry. The expressions of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP-1), STAT3, p-STAT3, JAK2, and p-JAK2 proteins were detected by Western blotting. Results Compared with the control group, the model group showed significant cardiac dysfunction, increased heart coefficient and heart-tibia ratio; enlarged myocardial cells with disordered arrangement, and a large number of fibroblasts and inflammatory cells infiltrating in the interstitium; Masson staining showed CVF increased; Levels of serum TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 elevated; SOD content decreased and MDA content increased in myocardial tissue; Positive expressions of Col I and Col III increased; MMP-9 expression increased and TIMP-1 expression decreased; Expressions of p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 increased, all with statistically significant differences (P < 0.001). Compared with the model group, the cryptotanshinone groups showed significant improvement in cardiac dysfunction, significantly decreased heart coefficient and heart-tibia ratio, relatively normal myocardial cell morphology and distribution, significantly decreased CVF, significantly decreased levels of serum TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6, significantly decreased MDA content and significantly increased SOD content in myocardial tissue, decreased positive expressions of Col I and Col III, significantly decreased MMP-9 protein expression, significantly increased TIMP-1 protein expression, and significantly decreased expressions of p-JAK2 and p-STAT3, all with statistically significant differences (P < 0.05, 0.01, 0.001). Conclusion Cryptotanshinone alleviates ISO-induced MF by inhibiting JAK2/STAT3 pathway activation, modulating the inflammation-oxidative stress cascade, and reducing collagen deposition.
