Background: How to improve flap necrosis in distal flaps is still a popular topic in clinical flap research. Zingerone (ZIN), as a plant extract, has therapeutic effects on many diseases. The purpose of our study was to explore whether ZIN can promote the survival of ischaemic skin flaps and its specific mechanism. Methods: An ischemic flap model was established in the dorsal region of mice. The changes of angiogenesis, oxidative stress, apoptosis and Keap1-Nrf2 related proteins in the skin flap were detected by immunofluorescence, western blot and qPCR. Overexpression of Keap1 by adeno-associated virus (AAV) was used to study the specific pathway and mechanism. Results: The results showed that ZIN can induce angiogenesis and reduce oxidative stress and apoptosis to promote flap survival. Increased expression of Keap1 reversed the therapeutic effect of ZIN. Conclusion: ZIN activates Nrf2 by inhibiting Keap1 activation, thus promoting angiogenesis and inhibiting oxidative stress and apoptosis. |
