    Abstract:
    Local anesthetics (LAs) are widely used for intraoperative anesthesia and postoperative analgesia. However, LAs (e.g. Bupivacaine) can evoke myotoxicity that closely associated to mitochondrial damage. PGC1a is a mast co-factor for mitochondrial quality control. We have recently demonstrated that PGC1a can be activated by HSPA12A in hepatocytes, suggesting a possibility that HSPA12A protects from LAs myotoxicity through activating PGC1α-mediated mitochondrial integrity. Here, we reported that HSPA12A was downregulated during Bupivacaine-induced myotoxicity in skeletal muscles of mice in vivo and C2c12 myoblast cultures in vitro. Intriguingly, overexpression of HSPA12A attenuated the Bupivacaine-induced C2c12 cell death. We also noticed that the Bupivacaine-induced decrease of glucose consumption and ATP production was improved by HSPA12A overexpression. Moreover, overexpression of HSPA12A in C2c12 cells attenuated the Bupivacaine-induced decrease of mitochondrial contents and increase of mitochondrial fragmentation. The Bupivacaine-induced reduction of PGC1α expression and nuclear localization was markedly attenuated by HSPA12A overexpression. Importantly, pretreatment with a selective PGC1α inhibitor (SR-18292) abolished the protection of HSPA12A from Bupivacaine-induced death and mitochondrial loss in C2c12 cells. Altogether, the findings indicate that downregulation of HSPA12A underlies myotoxicity of Local anesthetic agent Bupivacaine through inhibiting PGC1α-mediated Mitochondrial Integrity. Thus, HSPA12A might represent a viable strategy for preventing myotoxicity of LAs.
