Reperfusion after myocardial ischemia is associated with a rapid influx of calcium, leading to activation of various enzymes including calpain. Isolated perfused adult rabbit hearts subjected to global ischemia and reperfusion were studied. Calpain or a calpain-like activity was activated within 15 min after reperfusion, and preconditioning suppressed calpain activation. In contrast, caspase activation was not detected although cytochrome c was released after ischemia and reperfusion. The pro-apoptotic BH3-only Bcl-2 family member, Bid, was cleaved during ischemia/reperfusion in the adult rabbit heart. Recombinant Bid was cleaved by calpain to a fragment that was able to mediate cytochrome c release. The calpain cleavage site was mapped to a region within Bid that is extremely susceptible to proteolysis. These findings suggest that there is cross-talk between apoptotic and necrotic pathways in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Reperfusion after ischemia is accompanied by a rapid influx of calcium. Prevention of calcium influx is widely recognized in order to protect the myocardium. Preconditioning, in which a brief period of ischemia and reperfusion confers protection against a longer episode of ischemia, preserves tissue viability through attenuation of ionic fluxes (notably protons and calcium), preservation of energy charge (less consumption of ATP), and a variety of less well characterized enzymatic alterations (1-5). We have previously shown that preconditioning attenuates cytoplasmic acidification and calcium overload (3, 6). A variety of calcium-dependent enzymes are activated after calcium influx, including the cysteine protease, calpain. Calpain has been implicated as a mediator of contractile dysfunction during ischemic injury, in part because of proteolysis of structural proteins (7, 8). In addition, calpain has been reported to cleave Bax to an 18-kDa fragment that mediates cytochrome c release (9, 10), and calpain cleaves Bcl-xL to convert it to a pro-apoptotic form (11).

Apoptosis has been reported to occur after ischemia/reperfusion injury, indicated by DNA fragmentation and TUNEL1 staining (12-16). Preconditioning has been reported to reduce apoptosis (17). Caspase activation in ischemic and reperfused rat heart has been reported using an antibody that recognizes a neoepitope in activated caspase-3 (18). Other studies examining apoptosis in neonatal cardiomyocytes have described cytochrome c release and caspase activation (19, 20). In this study we report that calpain is activated shortly after ischemia/reperfusion and that preconditioning attenuates calpain activation. In addition, we demonstrate a connection between calpain and mitochondrial dysfunction mediated by Bid.

Heart Perfusion and Ischemia/Reperfusion Protocol-- Male New Zealand White rabbits (2.0-2.5 kg) were anesthetized and a midsternal thoracotomy was performed. The heart was rapidly excised and mounted onto a Langendorff heart perfusion apparatus using a protocol adapted from Tsuchida et al. (21). The heart was perfused at a constant pressure of 60 mm Hg with Krebs-Ringer buffer consisting of (in mmol/liter) NaCl (118), KCl (4.75), KH2PO4 (1.18), MgSO4·7H2O (1.18), CaCl2·2H2O (2.5), NaHCO3 (25), and glucose (11). The perfusate was bubbled with a mixture of 95% O2 and 5% CO2 at 37 °C. Perfused hearts were stabilized for 15 min and then subjected to global ischemia for 30 min by turning off the perfusion system. After 30 min of ischemia, the perfusion system was restarted, and the hearts were reperfused for up to 90 min. Ischemic preconditioning was induced by three 5-min cycles of no-flow ischemia and reperfusion immediately preceding the regular ischemia and reperfusion. The efficacy of these interventions was verified by measurement of creatine kinase release (Sigma Chemicals) and infarct size measurement using triphenyl tetrazolium staining.2 All animal procedures were approved by the Animal Care and Use Committee of The Scripps Research Institute.

Preparation of Cytosolic Extracts and Mitochondria-- At the end of perfusion, the ventricles were minced in 20 ml per heart of ice-cold MSE buffer (225 mM mannitol, 75 mM sucrose, 1.0 mM EGTA, 20 mM HEPES-KOH, pH 7.4). The heart was further homogenized for 5 s at maximal power output by PowerGen 125 (Fisher Scientific) equipped with a 10-mm diameter rotor knife. The homogenate was centrifuged for 10 min at 600 × g to remove unbroken tissue and nuclei. The supernatant was centrifuged twice for 10 min at 10,000 × g. The postmitochondrial supernatant generally contains about 15 mg protein/ml. The 10,000 × g mitochondrial pellet was washed twice and resuspended in MSE buffer. The supernatant (crude cytosol) was further centrifuged for 30 min at 100,000 × g to obtain particulate-free cytosol (S100) used for all further experiments. The 10,000 × g pellet from the previous centrifugation was resuspended in 10 ml of MSE buffer and centrifuged for 10 min at 8,000 × g. This wash step was repeated once. The final pellet of mitochondria was resuspended in 3 ml of MSE buffer, and the aliquots were stored at -80 °C. All operations were carried out on ice or at 4 °C. Jurkat cell cells were disrupted by nitrogen cavitation and cytosol and mitochondria were prepared as previously described (23).

Calpain Activity Assay-- Calpain activity was measured using 50 µM Suc-Leu-Tyr-7-amino-4-methylcoumarin (Suc-Leu-Tyr-AMC) as the substrate (Calbiochem, San Diego, CA). Cytosol (20 µl = 100 µg of protein) was added to a 100-µl reaction buffer (145 mM NaCl, 100 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.3). AMC release was measured over 1 h at room temperature by fluorimetry (Molecular Devices) using 360-nm excitation and 430-nm emission filters. Standard curves were generated for each experiment using known concentrations of AMC. Calpain activity was expressed as nmol AMC released/min/mg protein. All measurements were made in triplicate and repeated with extracts from hearts in two independent experiments.

Bid Cleavage Assays-- Recombinant GST-Bid (1 µg) was added to cytosol containing cardiac lysate (200 µg), recombinant caspase-8 (Pharmingen), or calpain I (Calbiochem) (1 µg) as specified and incubated for 1 h at 30 °C. The reaction mixtures were boiled in sample buffer, resolved by electrophoresis on 16% polyacrylamide gels (Novex), and detected by immunoblotting.

Bid-mediated Cytochrome c Release Assay-- GST-Bid (50 ng) and calpain I (1 µg) were added to a 10-µl reaction buffer consisting of 300 mM sucrose, 20 mM MOPS, 1 mM EGTA, and 0.1% bovine serum albumin, pH 7.4 in the presence of 2 mM Ca2+. After 1 h incubation at 30 °C, 4 mM EDTA was added to chelate Ca2+. Mitochondria (100 µg of protein) prepared from Jurkat cells by nitrogen cavitation were added to the reaction mixture and further incubated for 10 min at 30 °C. Mitochondria were pelleted by centrifugation at 10,000 × g for 10 min, and the supernatant and pellet were assessed by immunoblotting for cytochrome c. The concentration of GST-Bid used in these assays was determined by titration to be insufficient to induce cytochrome c release without proteolytic activation.

Western Blot Analysis-- Samples containing equal amounts of protein were subjected to electrophoresis on 4-20% gradient polyacrylamide gels (Novex) and then transferred to nitrocellulose membrane (Millipore Corp). After blocking in 5% nonfat milk and 0.05% Tween 20 in phosphate-buffered saline, blots were incubated with antibodies to cytochrome c (Pharmingen) and Bid and a signal amplification system (Vector Labs). Polyclonal anti-Bid antiserum was generated in rabbits using as immunogen NH2-CSDNSFRRELDALGHELPVLAPQ-amide peptide corresponding to residues 28-50 of huBid and coupled via the N-terminal cysteine residue to maleimide-activated ovalbumin (OVA) (Pierce, Inc.). New Zealand White female rabbits were injected subcutaneously with a mixture of 0.25 ml of OVA-peptide (1 mg/ml) and 0.5 ml of Freund's complete adjuvant (dose divided over 10 injections sites) and then boosted 3 times at weekly intervals followed by another 3-20 boosts at monthly intervals with 0.25 mg of OVA-peptide in Freund's incomplete adjuvant, before collecting blood and obtaining immune serum. The Bid antibody was used at a dilution of 1:1000.

We utilized a model of global ischemia in the isolated buffer-perfused rabbit hearts to evaluate biochemical events of cell death. We established that ischemic preconditioning, consisting of 3 cycles of 5 min of no-flow ischemia and 5 min of recovery, was able to protect the heart against a 30-min ischemic episode followed by reperfusion, as measured by creatine kinase release and reduction of infarct size (Fig. 1). We used this model to determine early events in the cell death pathway initiated by ischemia and to examine whether preconditioning would modulate those events.

Fig. 1.   Creatine kinase release after ischemia. Creatine kinase released into the coronary outflow was measured for 15 min before ischemia and for the first 15 min of reperfusion after ischemia (I/R) or preconditioned ischemia (P/I/R). Control hearts (con) were perfused continuously for the same amount of time. Mean and S.D. from four hearts per condition are shown.

At the time of reperfusion, intracellular calcium levels rise steeply (24, 25). Preconditioning has been shown to attenuate calcium elevations (5), and measures that prevent calcium influx have also been shown to be cardioprotective (5). Calpain is a cysteine protease that undergoes autocatalytic processing in the presence of calcium, which thus renders it independent of calcium. Calpains are also negatively regulated by calpastatin. In the heart, a calpastatin homolog high-molecular-weight calmodulin-binding protein (HMWCaMBP) has been shown to undergo proteolysis by calpains during ischemia/reperfusion, resulting in diminished calpain inhibitory activity (26, 27). Consistent with many earlier reports, we found that calcium-independent calpain or calpain-like activity could be detected in lysates from ischemic but not control hearts after 15 min of reperfusion (Fig. 2). Preconditioning attenuated calpain activity, suggesting that calpain may be an important determinant of myocardial injury. Additional evidence that calpain is active at this early time point is reflected in the cleavage of alpha -spectrin in ischemic lysates (Fig. 2, inset).

Fig. 2.   Calpain activation after ischemia/reperfusion. Cleavage of the calpain substrate Suc-Leu-Tyr-AMC was followed fluorometrically using 100 µg of cytosolic extracts obtained from control (Con), ischemic (I/R), and preconditioned (P/I/R) hearts after 15 min of reperfusion. The activity measured was fully inhibited by ALLN but not ZVAD (not shown). Plots shown are averages (±S.E.) of triplicates in separate experiments using independent sets of hearts. Analysis of variance was used to determine p values (*, p < 0.01; **, p < 0.05). The inset demonstrates proteolysis of alpha -spectrin in ischemic lysates compared with control and preconditioned hearts. The antibody does not detect fragments.

In contrast to the strong activation of calpain at this early time point, we could not detect any evidence of caspase activation. DEVD-AMC cleavage revealed no caspase activity, although latent caspase-3-like activity could be revealed by the addition of catalytic amounts of Granzyme B (Fig. 3). Immunoblotting for caspase-9 and caspase-3 also failed to demonstrate proteolytic processing after 15 and 90 min reperfusion (data not shown). However, the amount of cytochrome c was increased in cytosol of hearts subjected to 30 min of ischemia and 15 min of reperfusion (Fig. 4).

Fig. 4.   Cytochrome c release from mitochondria. Cytochrome c is released into the cytosol after ischemia and 15 min of reperfusion (I/R). Some cytochrome c is released even in control hearts (C), presumably a reflection of unavoidable mitochondrial disruption during Polytron homogenization.

We considered that calpain might interact with apoptotic pathways in ischemia. Bid, a BH3-only member of the Bcl-2 family, is capable of mediating cytochrome c release and is expressed in heart. Bid is cleaved by caspase-8 to generate a truncated fragment, tBid, which is capable of translocating to the mitochondria and mediating cytochrome c release. Accordingly, we examined whether calpain could cleave Bid. As shown in Fig. 5, recombinant GST-Bid was cleaved by caspase-8 or calpain I. GST-Bid cleavage by calpain gave rise to fragments that were similar in size but not identical to those generated by caspase-8 (Fig. 5). Sequencing of the amino terminus of the fragment that differed in size from the caspase-8 fragments yielded the sequence RIEA, which lies within the "bait loop" that has been shown to be the region of cleavage by caspase-8, lysosomal proteases, and granzyme B (Table I) (28).

Bid sequence and cleavage sites
The sequence for human Bid is shown with the cleavage site by calpain denoted by boldface. Cleavage sites by caspase-8, Granzyme B, and lysosomal proteases are underlined.

However, it was necessary to establish whether the calpain-cleaved Bid fragments were capable of mediating cytochrome c release. We determined the concentration of recombinant GST-Bid that was unable to cause cytochrome c release without prior proteolytic cleavage (data not shown). This concentration of GST-Bid was then incubated with buffer, caspase-8, or calpain I in the presence of mitochondria. After 10 min at 37 °C, the supernatant and pellet were assessed for cytochrome c release. We found that recombinant calpain was able to cleave GST-Bid to fragments that were capable of mediating cytochrome c release (Fig. 6). This effect could be blocked by the early addition of ALLN (Fig. 6, lane 4). Calpain alone did not cause cytochrome c release (not shown).

Fig. 6.   Cytochrome c release mediated by cleaved Bid. GST-Bid (50 ng) was incubated with calpain I with or without ALLN (20 µM) for 30 min, then calcium was chelated with the addition of EDTA, and mitochondria were added and incubated for an additional 10 min. After sedimentation, cytochrome c was assessed in supernatant and pellet.

Consistent with the observation that calpain-like activity is increased with ischemia/reperfusion and with the demonstration that calpain could cleave Bid in vitro to an active fragment, we were able to detect proteolytic processing of Bid in cytosol from hearts subjected to global ischemia and reperfusion (Fig. 7). The size of the processed fragments corresponded closely to that observed in vitro for calpain-mediated cleavage. Thus, calpain-mediated processing of Bid may be responsible for cytochrome c release and subsequent mitochondrial dysfunction.

Ischemia and reperfusion are associated with calpain activation, a finding that has been reported by many other groups. Recent interest has focused on biochemical pathways of apoptosis, and caspase activation has been reported to occur in ischemic and reperfused rat hearts (18). In these studies, we focused on early time points, because the commitment to cell death is made quite early. We were unable to detect caspase activation at these early time points. However, calpain activity was apparent as early as 15 min of reperfusion, and calcium-independent calpain activity was attenuated in preconditioned hearts. This observation underscores the importance of calpain in ischemic injury. Calpain exists as an inactive proenzyme consisting of 80-kDa and 29-kDa subunits, which undergo autolytic processing in the presence of calcium to 78-kDa and 18-kDa fragments, thereby greatly diminishing their requirement for calcium (reviewed in Ref. 29). Calpain is further regulated by association with an inhibitor, calpastatin, which can be degraded by calpain. Recently it was reported that calpastatin immunoreactivity and inhibitory activity was diminished in ischemic heart tissue (26, 27). It has already been shown that reperfusion is associated with a brisk drop in intracellular pH and an associated rise in calcium. Preconditioning suppresses these ionic alterations and would therefore be expected to attenuate calpain activation, as we have observed (3, 6).

We demonstrated that in vitro, calpain could cleave recombinant human Bid at a site that is consistent with the consensus site for calpain, which is characterized by Leu, Val, or Ile in the P2 position. However, the Leu is not conserved between mouse and human Bid, and it remains to be established whether Bid is generally a calpain substrate. The sequence of Bid in rabbits is not known. The site of cleavage lies within the "bait loop" between helix 2 and helix 3, which by virtue of its low-order structure is readily accessible to proteases. As suggested by Salvesen (28), Bid may serve as a general sensor of intracellular protease activation. Calpain has also been shown to cleave Bax to an 18-kDa fragment that is better able to bind to mitochondria and cause cytochrome c release (9, 10) and can also cleave Bcl-xL to a pro-apoptotic fragment (11). Cross-talk between necrotic (calpain) and apoptotic (caspase) pathways is complex. Calpain cleaves caspase-9 and -3, rendering them inactive. In contrast, calpain has been suggested to cleave and activate caspase-12 (11, 30).

We show that calpain is able to cleave Bid to its active form, leading to cytochrome c release from mitochondria. Regardless of whether cytochrome c serves to activate downstream caspases in the heart, the loss of cytochrome c from mitochondria is likely to impair respiration. Release of additional resident proteins of the intermembrane space, including AIF, SMAC, and CIDE-B may contribute to apoptosis (31-34). Loss of mitochondrial metabolites such as NADH and enzymes such as creatine kinase will additionally impair ATP production by both mitochondria and glycolysis (35). Consistent with this, cytochrome c-dependent respiration has been shown to be impaired in mitochondria from ischemic and reperfused hearts (36, 37). Moreover, cytochrome c release has been recognized to be a feature of ischemic injury for over two decades (38, 39). Whereas Bid, a death-promoting member of the Bcl-2 family, has been recognized to be an important signal intermediate in some forms of apoptosis, its role in myocardial cell death (necrosis or apoptosis) has not been examined. Bcl-2 overexpression has been shown to protect against some necrotic insults (40), perhaps through its ability to antagonize the action of Bid. However, it remains to be shown whether Bcl-2 or Bcl-xL is able to bind and antagonize Bid generated by calpain proteolysis. These findings link calcium influx and calpain activation to the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. The proposed pathway to cell death in ischemic heart is shown in Fig. 8. Taken together, these findings implicate calpain cleavage of Bid as a point of cross-talk between ionic disturbances and apoptosis in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Fig. 8.   Proposed pathway to death in ischemic heart. Ischemia followed by reperfusion leads to a rise in intracellular calcium, leading to activation of a variety of calcium-dependent enzymes, including calpain. Calpain is capable of cleaving a variety of intracellular targets, including Bid, which translocates to the mitochondria and mediates cytochrome c release. Loss of cytochrome c may eventually promote caspase activation through Apaf-1 and caspase-9, but also compromises mitochondrial ATP production, leading to energy depletion and cell death. The ultimate fate of the cell rests upon the relative magnitude of these effects.
