Reperfused hypertrophic hearts are prone to develop reflow abnormalities, which are likely to impair O2 return to the myocardium. Yet, reflow deficit may not be the only factor determining postischemic oxygenation in the hypertrophic heart. Altered O2 demand may also contribute to hypoxia. In addition, the extent to which myocardial Po2 dictates energy and functional recovery in the reperfused heart remains uncertain. In the present study, moderately hypertrophied hearts from spontaneously hypertensive rats were subjected to ischemia-reperfusion, and the recovery time courses of pH and high-energy phosphates were followed by 31P NMR. 1H NMR measurement of intracellular myoglobin assessed tissue O2 levels. The present study found that the exacerbation of hypoxia in the postischemic spontaneously hypertensive rat heart arises mostly from impaired microvascular supply of O2. However, postischemic myocardial Po2, at least when it exceeds ∼18% of the preischemic level, does not limit mitochondrial respiration and high-energy phosphate resynthesis. It only passively reflects changes in the O2 supply-demand balance.

During heart transplantation, donor heart leads to reduced oxygen supply resulting in low level of high energy phosphate (HEP) reserves in cardiomyocyte. Lower HEP is one of the underlying reasons of cell death due to ischemia. In this study we investigated the role of Fingolimod (FTY720) in heart transplantation ischemia. Eight groups of Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 5 for each subgroup) were made, A1 and C1 were given FTY720 1 mg/kg while B1 and D1 were given normal saline. The hearts were implanted into another set of similar rats after preservation period of 1 h at 4–8 °C. Significantly higher Left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP), dP/dT maximum (p < 0.05), dP/dT minimum (p < 0.05) were recorded in the FTY720 treated group after 24 h of reperfusion while after 1 h of reperfusion, there were no significant differences in LVSP, maximum and negative dP/dT, and Left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP) between the control and the FTY720-treated transplant groups. Coronary blood flow (CBF) was enhanced (p < 0.05) in the FTY720 treated group after 1 and 24 h. ATP p < 0.001, p < 0.05 at 1 and 24 h, ADP p < 0.001, p > 0.05 at 1 and 24 h, and phosphocreatine p < 0.05, p > 0.05 at 1 and 24 h were better preserved by FTY720 treatment as compared to control group. The study concluded that pretreatment of grafted hearts with FTY720 improved hemodynamics, CBF, high energy phosphate reserves, reduces the peroxynitrite level and poly (ADP ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibition that prevents ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Ischemic Contracture

We previously demonstrated that ATP-sensitive K+ channels (KATP) protect the guinea pig myocardium against ischemia-reperfusion injury (Cole et al., Circ. Res. 69: 571-581, 1991), but the cellular alterations leading to ischemic injury affected by KATP remain to be defined. This study investigates the relationship between activation of KATP and preservation of high-energy phosphates during global no-flow ischemia in arterially perfused guinea pig right ventricular walls. Electrical and mechanical activity were recorded via intracellular microelectrodes and a force transducer. Glibenclamide (10 and 50 microM) and pinacidil (10 microM) were used to modulate KATP. ATP and creatine phosphate (CP) levels were determined at the end of no-flow ischemia by enzymatic analysis. Preparations were subjected to 1) 20 min no-flow +/- glibenclamide (10 or 50 microM), 2) 30 min no-flow +/- pinacidil (10 microM) or pinacidil (10 microM) and glibenclamide (50 microM), or 3) 40 or 50 min of control perfusion before rapid freezing in liquid nitrogen. Pinacidil (10 microM) enhanced ischemic shortening of action potential duration (APD) and early contractile failure, prevented ischemic contracture, and inhibited high-energy phosphate depletion during ischemia. Glibenclamide (50 microM) inhibited the effects of pinacidil (10 microM) on electromechanical function and preservation of ATP and CP. Glibenclamide (10 microM) alone inhibited the early decline in APD and produced earlier ischemic contracture but did not enhance ATP or CP depletion compared with untreated tissues during 20 min of no-flow. Glibenclamide (50 microM) produced a greater inhibition of APD shortening in early ischemia, further decreased the latency to ischemic contracture, and caused enhanced ischemic depletion of ATP. The data indicate the changes in electrical activity induced by KATP indirectly preserve high-energy phosphates and reduce injury associated with ischemia. However, the data also suggest the possible presence of additional mechanisms for cardioprotection by KATP.

Responses of beta-adrenoceptor (beta-AR) in rat soleus to gravitational unloading and/or changes in the levels of phosphorus compounds by feeding either creatine or its analogue beta-guanidinopropionic acid (beta-GPA) were studied. A decrease in the density of beta-AR (about -35%) was induced by 10 days of hindlimb suspension, but the affinity of the receptor was unaffected. Suspension unloading tended to increase the levels of adenosine triphosphate and phosphocreatine and decrease inorganic phosphate. Even without unloading, the beta-AR density decreased after an oral creatine supplementation (about -20%), which also tended to elevate the high-energy phosphate levels in muscle. However, an elevation of beta-AR density was induced (about +36%) after chronic depletion of high-energy phosphates by feeding beta-GPA (about +125%). Data suggest that the density of beta-AR in muscle is elevated if the high-energy phosphate contents are chronically decreased and vice versa. However, it may not be directly related to the degree of muscle contractile activity.

Abstract Objective A variety of circadian patterns of blood pressure after ischemic stroke in patients with essential hypertension appear to be a potential risk of stroke recurrence, but the mechanism is still unclear. This study intends to reveal the changes in blood pressure rhythm and circadian clock protein expression levels in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) after ischemia-reperfusion, and the relationship between the two. Methods Using the SHR middle cerebral artery occlusion experimental model, the systolic blood pressure was continuously monitored for 24 hours after the operation to observe the blood pressure rhythm. The rat tail vein blood was taken every 3h, and the serum CLOCK, BMAL1, PER1 and CRY1 protein expression levels were detected by Elisa. Pearson correlation analysis counted the relationship between SHR blood pressure rhythm and circadian clock protein fluctuation after ischemia-reperfusion. Results The proportion of abnormal blood pressure patterns in the SHR + tMCAO group was significantly higher than that in the SHR group, the serum CLOCK expression was relatively constant, and the circadian rhythm of BMAL1, PER1 and CRY1 protein expression changed significantly. Pearson analysis showed that PER1 protein level was negatively correlated with dipper (r = -0.565, P = 0.002) and extreme-dipper (r = -0.531, P = 0.001) blood pressure, and was significantly positively correlated with non-dipper blood pressure (r = 0.620, P < 0.001). Conclusion The rhythm pattern of blood pressure after ischemia-reperfusion in SHR is obviously disordered, and it is closely related to the regulation of Per1 gene.

Inhibition Of Glycolysis

It has been suggested that increased K+ efflux during myocardial hypoxia and ischemia may result from efflux of intracellularly generated anions such as lactate and inorganic phosphate (Pi) as a mechanism of balancing transsarcolemmal charge movement. To investigate this hypothesis cellular K+ loss using 42K+ and K+-sensitive electrodes, intracellular potential, venous lactate and Pi, and tissue lactate and high-energy phosphates were measured in isolated arterially perfused rabbit interventricular septa during exposure to metabolic inhibitors, hypoxia, and ischemia. Selective inhibition of glycolysis caused a marked increase in K+ efflux despite a fall in lactate production and maintenance of normal cellular high-energy phosphate content. During ischemia and hypoxia net loss of lactate and Pi exceeded K+ loss by a factor of 2-6. However, removal of glucose prior to ischemia or during hypoxia increased K+ loss but reduced lactate loss without affecting Pi loss. During hypoxia, 30 mM exogenous lactate did not alter K+ loss in a manner consistent with changes in passive electrodiffusion of lactate ion. These findings inhibition which is not related to anion efflux assumes greater importance under conditions in which glycolysis is inhibited, e.g., ischemia. Under conditions in which glycolysis is not inhibited, e.g., hypoxia, K+ efflux does not parallel passive electrodiffusion of lactate ions. However, this finding does not exclude the possibility that K+ loss could be coupled to carrier-mediated lactate ion efflux.

Myoglobin (Mb) has a purported role in facilitating O2 diffusion in tissue, especially as cellular Po2 drops or the respiration demand increases. Inhibiting Mb with CO under conditions that accentuate the facilitated diffusion role should then elicit a significant physiological response. In one set of experiments, the perfused myocardium received buffer with decreasing Po2 (225, 129, and 64 mmHg). Intracellular Po2 declined, as reflected in the 1H NMR Val E11 signal of MbO2 (67%, 32%, and 18%). The addition of 6% CO further reduced the available MbO2 (11%, 9%, and 7%), as evidenced by the decline of the MbO2 Val E11 signal intensity at −2.76 ppm. In a second set of experiments, electrical stimulation increased the heart rate (300, 450, and 540 beats/min) and correspondingly the O2 consumption rate (MV̇o2). Intracellular Po2 also declined, as reflected in the slight drop in the MbO2 signal (100%, 96%, and 82%). MV̇o2 increased (100%, 114%, 165%). The addition of 3% CO in the stimulated hearts further decreased the available MbO2 (46%, 44%, and 29%). In all cases, CO inactivation of Mb does not induce any change in the respiration rate, contractile function, and high-energy phosphate levels. Moreover, the MbCO/MbO2 partition coefficient shifts dramatically from its in vitro value during hypoxia and increased work. The observation suggests a modulation of an intracellular O2 gradient. Overall, the experimental observations provide no evidence of a facilitated diffusion role for Mb in perfused myocardium and implicate a physiologically responsive intracellular O2 gradient.
