Abstract: Objective:To explore the effect and potential mechanism of cardiac adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) overexpression on burn-induced cardiac injury.Methods:Eight-week-old C57BL/6J mice with cardiac ATGL overexpression driven by the myosin heavy chain (MHC) promoter (MHC-ATGL burn group) and wild-type (wild-type burn group) mice were randomly chose to the following experiments with burn injury after 24 h ( n=8/group), MHC-ATGL mice and wild-type mice with corresponded age and sex were included as control. Cardiac ATGL protein expression, serum levels of cardiac troponin T and cardiac kinase-MB (CK-MB), cardiac free fatty acid and reactive oxygen species were detected. The wild-type and MHC-ATGL burn groups were not only compared with their corresponded control groups, but also compared between each other. Results:The hair color and development were shown little difference between each group. ATGL protein expression is elevated in wild-type burn group (1.00±0.68 vs 3.09±0.93, P=0.023) and decreased in MHC-ATGL burn group (17.84±2.41 vs 10.36±2.22, P<0.001), while ATGL protein expression is still increased in MHC-ATGL burn group compared with wild-type burn group ( P<0.001). Serum levels of cardiac troponin T and CK-MB were both elevated in wild-type burn group and MHC-ATGL burn group [(0.456±0.131) vs (0.076±0.019) μg/L and (0.219±0.089) vs (0.060±0.019) μg/L, (1 421±162) vs (221±67) U/L and (761±142) vs (221±41) U/L] (all P<0.001), while serum levels of cardiac troponin T and CK-MB was still decreased in MHC-ATGL burn group compared with wild-type burn group ( P<0.001). In addition, cardiac free fatty acid was increased in wild-type burn group and little difference was found in MHC-ATGL burn group [(2.54±0.51) vs (0.46±0.27) mmol/L, P<0.001, and (0.81±0.38) vs (0.59±0.25) mmol/L, P=0.251], while cardiac free fatty acid was significant reduction in MHC-ATGL burn group compared with wild-type burn group ( P<0.001). Levels of cardiac reactive oxygen species was both elevated in wild-type burn group and MHC-ATGL burn group [(1.89±0.23) vs (1.00±0.18) and (1.38±0.17) vs (0.95±0.13)] (both P<0.001), while levels of cardiac reactive oxygen was reduction in MHC-ATGL burn group compared with wild-type burn group ( P<0.001). Conclusion:Cardiac ATGL overexpression may protect against burn-induced cardiac injury through reducing free fatty acid and reactive oxygen species production.
