Tongxinluo prevents chronic obstructive pulmonary disease complicated with atherosclerosis by inhibiting ferroptosis and protecting against pulmonary microvascular barrier dysfunction
Cardiovascular comorbidities are pervasive in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and often result in serious adverse cardiovascular events. Tongxinluo (TXL) has been clinically verified to treat atherosclerosis (AS), improve lung function and alleviate dyspnoea. The present study aimed to...

description |
Cardiovascular comorbidities are pervasive in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and often result in serious adverse cardiovascular events. Tongxinluo (TXL) has been clinically verified to treat atherosclerosis (AS), improve lung function and alleviate dyspnoea. The present study aimed to explore the effect of lung microvascular barrier dysfunction on AS in COPD and the potential pulmonary protective mechanisms of TXL in COPD complicated with AS. COPD complicated with AS was induced in mice by cigarette smoke (CS) exposure and high-fat diet (HFD) feeding. The mice were treated with atorvastatin (ATO), TXL or combination therapy (ATO+TXL) for 20 weeks. Pulmonary function, lung pathology, serum lipid levels, atherosclerotic plaque area and indicators of barrier function, oxidative stress and ferroptosis in lung tissue were evaluated. In vitro, human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (HPMECs) were pretreated with TXL for 4 h and then incubated with cigarette smoke extract (CSE) and homocysteine (Hcy) for 36 h to induce barrier dysfunction. Then the indicators of barrier function, oxidative stress and ferroptosis were measured. The results demonstrate that CS aggravated dyslipidaemia, atherosclerotic plaque formation, pulmonary function decline, pathological injury, barrier dysfunction, oxidative stress and ferroptosis in the HFD-fed mice. However, these abnormalities were partially reversed by ATO and TXL. Similar results were observed in vitro. In conclusion, pulmonary microvascular barrier dysfunction plays an important role by which COPD affects the progression of AS, and ferroptosis may be involved. Moreover, TXL delays the progression of AS and reduces cardiovascular events by protecting the pulmonary microvascular barrier and inhibiting ferroptosis. |
