METHODS Healthy male SD rats were injected intraperitoneally with streptozotocin 50 mg·kg-1 to prepare diabetes model. After 2 weeks of modeling, 28 diabetic rats were randomly divided into diabetic control group, model group, vector group and NGF group (n =7). Myocardial point injection gene transfection method was adopted. Vector group and NGF group were injected with green fluorescent protein-containing adeno-associated virus 9 (AAV9-GFP) and AAV9-GFP carrying NGF (AAV9-NGF-GFP) 100 μL (titer 8 × 1014 vg·L-1), respectively. Four weeks after gene transfection, IR injury model was prepared in the model group, the vector group and the NGF group by ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery ischemia for 30 min and reperfusion for 120 min. Left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP), left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP), maximum rate of left ventricular pressure rise and drop (±dp/dtmax) and heart rate (HR) were collected using electrophysiological signal recorders immediately before ischemia (T0) and 120 min after reperfusion (T1). Immunofluorescence and ELISA were used to analyze the changes of NGF, calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and myocardial nerve fiber distribution in myocardial tissue. RESULTS At T0, there were no significant differences in cardiac function among the diabetic control group, the model group and the vector group (P> 0.05). Compared with the model group and the vector group, LVSP and HR were significantly increased, LVEDP was decreased (P < 0.05), but the differences of±dp/dtmax were not significant (P> 0.05) in the NGF group. At T1, compared with T0, LVSP, HR and ±dp/dtmax were significantly decreased and LVEDP was significantly increased in the model group, the vector group and the NGF group (P < 0.05). Compared with the diabetic control group, LVSP, HR and ±dp/dtmax were decreased significantly, and LVEDP was significantly increased in the model group (P < 0.05), NGF and CGRP expression levels were significantly up-regulated (P < 0.05) and the distribution of myocardial nerve fibers was decreased. There were no significant difference between the vector group and the model group (P> 0.05).Compared with the model group and the vector group, the LVSP and HR in the NGF group were significantly increased, the LVEDP was significantly decreased, and the myocardial NGF and CGRP protein expression were significantly up-regulated (P < 0.05), the distribution of nerve fibers was increased. CONCLUSION NGF transfection can alleviate myocardial IR injury in diabetic rats, which may be related to the increase of NGF and CGRP.
