AIM: Selenoprotein T (SelT or SELENOT) is a novel thioredoxin-like enzyme whose genetic ablation in mice results in early embryonic lethality. SelT exerts an essential cytoprotective action during development and after injury through its redox-active catalytic site. This study aimed to determine the expression and regulation of SelT in the mammalian heart in normal and pathological conditions and to evaluate the cardioprotective effect of a SelT-derived peptide, SelT43-52(PSELT) encompassing the redox motif which is key to its function, against ischaemia/reperfusion(I/R) injury. METHODS: We used the isolated Langendorff rat heart model and different analyses by immunohistochemistry, Western blot and ELISA. RESULTS: We found that SelT expression is very abundant in embryo but is undetectable in adult heart. However, SelT expression was tremendously increased after I/R. PSELT (5 nmol/L) was able to induce pharmacological post-conditioning cardioprotection as evidenced by a significant recovery of contractility (dLVP) and reduction of infarct size (IS), without changes in cardiac contracture (LVEDP). In contrast, a control peptide lacking the redox site did not confer cardioprotection. Immunoblot analysis showed that PSELT-dependent cardioprotection is accompanied by a significant increase in phosphorylated Akt, Erk-1/2 and Gsk3α-ß, and a decrement of p38MAPK. PSELT inhibited the pro-apoptotic factors Bax, caspase 3 and cytochrome c and stimulated the anti-apoptotic factor Bcl-2. Furthermore, PSELT significantly reduced several markers of I/R-induced oxidative and nitrosative stress. CONCLUSION: These results unravel the role of SelT as a cardiac modulator and identify PSELT as an effective pharmacological post-conditioning agent able to protect the heart after ischaemic injury.
