Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based therapy is a novel candidate for heart repair. But ischemiareperfusion injury leads to low viability of MSC. Dexmedetomidine (Dex) has been found to protect neurons against ischemia-reperfusion injury. It remains unknown if Dex could increase the viability of MSCs under ischemia. The present study is to observe the potential protective effect of Dex on MSCs under ischemia and its underlying mechanisms. Specific mRNAs related to myocardial ischemia in the GEO database were selected from the mRNA profiles assessed in a previous study using microarray. The most dysregulated mRNAs of the specific ones from the above study were subject to bioinformatics analysis at our laboratory. These dysregulated mRNAs possibly regulated apoptosis of cardiomyocytes and were validated in vitro for their protective effect on MSCs under ischemia. MSCs were pre-treated with Dex at 10 µM concentration for 24 h under oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD). Flow cytometry and TUNEL assay were carried out to detect apoptosis in Dex-pretreated MSCs under OGD. The relative expressions of mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase 1 (MKP-1) and related genes were detected by quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blotting. Microarray data analysis revealed that Dex regulates MAPK phosphatase activity. Dex significantly reduced in vitro apoptosis of MSCs under OGD, which suppressed the synthesis level of Beclin1 and light chain 3 proteins. Dex down-regulated MKP-1 expression and attenuated an OGD-induced change in the mitogen activated protein kinase 3 (MAPK3) signaling pathway. Dex increases the viability of MSC and improves its tolerance to OGD in association with the MKP-1 signaling pathway, thus suggesting the potential of Dex as a novel strategy for promoting MSCs efficacy under ischemia.
