Conclusion

References

20-HETE levels were ~2 times greater in JCR vs. SD rats at baseline before surgery 20-HETE levels increased during the ischemic period in both SD and JCR rats

Increase was more significant in JCR (~4-fold vs. NZ) than in SD (~3-fold vs. NZ) rats

20-HETE levels were somewhat increased in the NZs of SD and JCR rats

Increase did not reach statistical significance Has effect of ischemia on remote myocardium

20-HETE elevated so role was assessed in myocardial infarction using 20-SOLA (antagonist) Infarct expansion (the white on the tissue images, represents how great the heart attack was throughout

the heart) Resulted in MIs which involved ~50% of the LV in JCR and ~25% of the LV in SD

suggests 20-HETE animals

Data antagonists are able to decrease further damage to the myocardium 48-hour sample had an increase in AMPK

Myocardial Infarction is another term for a heart attack (19)

Blockage of the Coronary Artery Loss of Blood flow Loss of oxygen Induced in JCR and SD Rats

20% of people survive after having a heart attack More than 2 million people per year die from having a heart attack Metabolic Syndrome patients are more likely to develop Cardiovascular Disease

Metabolic Syndrome is a cluster of biochemical and physiological abnormalities (16) Side effects of includes :

High blood sugar Increased pressure Abnormal cholesterol or triglyceride levels Associated with the development of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes

Metabolic Syndrome can be correlated to 20-HETE as the functions of both are very similar (13)

20-HETE is elevated in Metabolic Syndrome Rats (13)

20-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) is an eicosanoid metabolite of arachidonic acid that has a wide range of effects on the vascular including the regulation of vascular tone (14)

Blood flow to specific organs Sodium and fluid transport in the kidney Vascular pathway remodeling Associated with the development of stroke and heart

attacks 20- HETE is a factor in the development of Cardiovascular Disease

20-SOLA is a 20-HETE Antagonist (25) Decreases 20-HETE levelsMechanism unknownWater soluble Increases blood flow Easy to administer

P-Ampk alpha1/alpha2 and Ampk are part of the kinase family (19)Activated by low levels of ATPMechanism unknownATP levels are low AMPK promotes ATP production Protects cells from stressEnergy sensing

Statement of Purpose

AMPK kinase is an energy sensing enzyme in which shows when cellular energy is low

*D. Grahame et al 2012

20-SOLA is water soluble in which could be administered by I.V. for easy application

*Victor Garcia et al 2017

20-HETE levels significantly elevated in Metabolic Syndrome rats due to poor condition of their heart

*Petra Rocic et al 2017

Ischemia of the heart leads to cell death of the myocardium such as oncosis and apoptosis

*University of Texas et al 2015

Heart damage in Metabolic Syndrome rats is two times greater than a control group

Myocardial Infarction Protocol:

20-SOLA treatment: 20-HETE antagonist

• I.V. placed into SD and JCR rats • Used to combat 20-HETE levels• MEASURED AT 48 HOURS,1 WEEK AND 8 WEEK• Single treatment • Cross sectional analysis of heart

Western Blot:• Make Gel Electrophoresis• Isolate protein sample• BCA Protein Assay• Load and Run Gels• Transfer gels onto membrane • Wash membrane with Primary Antibody (AMPK)• Add secondary antibody • Scan on Odyssey Scanner • Compare blot samples• Image J computer program analysis• Analyze Antibodies

Discussion

Ischemia is an inadequate blood supply to a specific organ or part of the body , especially the heart

Leads to damage of the heart Cell Death occurs Caused by heart attacks

30 minute occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD); After 30 minutes, blood flow is reestablished and the left ventricle is reperfused

After 48 hours, 7 days, or 8 weeks, hearts are separated into IZ and NZ for following experiments

Histology

Protein Expression/ localization- Western Blot- Immunohistochemistry (IHC)

20-HETE levels- LC/MS/MS

Normal Zone (NZ)

Collateral –dependent Zone (CZ)

LAD

The Effects of 20-SOLA on MI Size at 48 Hours post Reperfusion It was determined that 20-HETE plays a causative role in collateral cellular growth

(CCG)

AMPK kinase showed a significant increase in 48-hour samples for both rats

20-SOLA was found to create an equilibrium in 20-HETE levels in all tissue samples

Significantly more in JCR MI rats

20-SOLA aided the decrease in ischemia for both rats

More significant in JCR MI rats

When 20-HETE levels decrease ischemia also decreases

Global epidemic of Cardiovascular problems

and diseases that have no effective treatment option

Problem

20-SOLA will decrease ischemic damage in both JCR and SD rats but will

be more prevalent in the JCR rats

Hypothesis

Establish a more effective treatment for Myocardial Infarction in Metabolic Syndrome rats

Relevant to the epidemic of cardiovascular diseases plaguing populations globally

Investigate the effects 20-SOLA would have on human participants Discover the role of AMPK on other mechanisms of the body such as endothelial cell

production

Increase the effectiveness of 20-SOLA administration Establish an understanding on the mechanisms behind how 20-SOLA works

Determine how AMPK phosphorylation sites work as the mechanism is unknown
