We investigated the hypothesis that cerebral prostanoid and peptidoleukotriene (LTs) (LTC4/D4/E4/F4) synthesis are increased during postischemic reperfusion of newborn pig brains. Prostanoids and LTs extracted from brain tissue were determined by RIA in sham-control piglets and at 1h, 3h, or 12h after a 20-min period of total cerebral ischemia. During reperfusion following ischemia, all regional brain tissue (cerebrum, brain stem and cerebellum) prostanoids (6-keto-PGF1 alpha, TXB2, PGE2 and PGF2 alpha) were increased at 1h compared with those in sham-control piglets. Only cerebral and brain stem 6-keto-PGF1 alpha and cerebral TXB2 remained elevated at 3h postischemia and all prostanoids returned to control levels by 12h postischemia. Brain tissue LTs were lower than prostanoids and were not altered 1, 3, or 12h following ischemia. These data indicate that 1) newborn pig brain tissue prostanoids are increased initially, and then returned to control levels at later stages of reperfusion following ischemia; 2) LTs are present in newborn pig brain tissue, but are not increased by ischemia/reperfusion injury and therefore probably do not play a significant role in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury. 相似文献

Generation of hydrogen peroxide by brain mitochondria: the effect of reoxygenation following postdecapitative ischemia 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
The hypothesis that mitochondria damaged during complete cerebral ischemia generate increased amounts of superoxide anion radical and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) upon postischemic reoxygenation has been tested. In rat brain mitochondria, succinate supported H2O2 generation, whereas NADH-linked substrates, malate plus glutamate, did so only in the presence of respiratory chain inhibitors. Succinate-supported H2O2 generation was diminished by rotenone and the uncoupler carbonyl cyanide m-chlorphenylhydrazone and enhanced by antimycin A and increased oxygen tensions. When maximally reduced, the NADH dehydrogenase and the ubiquinone-cytochrome b regions of the electron transport chain are sources of H2O2. These studies suggest that a significant portion of H2O2 generation in brain mitochondria proceeds via the transfer of reducing equivalents from ubiquinone to the NADH dehydrogenase portion of the electron transport chain. Succinate-supported H2O2 generation by mitochondria isolated from rat brain exposed to 15 min of postdecapitative ischemia was 90% lower than that of control preparations. The effect of varying oxygen tensions on H2O2 generation by postischemic mitochondrial preparations was negligible compared with the increased H2O2 generation measured in control preparations. Comparison of the effects of respiratory chain inhibitors and oxygen tension on succinate-supported H2O2 generation suggests that the ability for reversed electron transfer is impaired during ischemia. These data do not support the hypothesis that mitochondrial free radical generation increases during postischemic reoxygenation. 相似文献

The neuroprotective potential of mGluR1 and mGluR5 antagonists (group I), EMQMCM and MTEP, respectively was studied using the 3 min forebrain ischemia model in Mongolian gerbils and the hypoxia-ischemia model in 7-day-old rats. Hypoxia-ischemia was induced by unilateral carotid occlusion followed by 75 min exposure to hypoxia (7.3% O(2) in N(2)), forebrain ischemia in gerbils was evoked by bilateral common carotid artery occlusion. The postischemic rectal body temperature in rat pups or brain temperature of gerbils was measured. The drugs were administered i.p. three times every 2 h after the insult, each time in equal doses of 1.25, 2.5 or 5.0 mg/kg. After 2 weeks brain damage was evaluated as weight decrease of the ipsilateral hemisphere in the rat pups or damage to CA1 pyramids in the gerbil hippocampus. The results demonstrated a dose dependent neuroprotection in both ischemic models by EMQMCM, while MTEP was neuroprotective only in the gerbil model of forebrain ischemia. EMQMCM reduced postischemic hyperthermia in gerbils. Thus, the antagonists of mGluR1 and mGluR5 show differential neuroprotective ability in two models of brain ischemia. Postischemic hypothermia may be partially involved in the mechanism of neuroprotection following EMQMCM in gerbils. 相似文献

In vitro studies have well established the neuroprotective action of the noble gas argon. However, only limited data from in vivo models are available, and particularly whether postexcitotoxic or postischemic argon can provide neuroprotection in vivo still remains to be demonstrated. Here, we investigated the possible neuroprotective effect of postexcitotoxic-postischemic argon both ex vivo in acute brain slices subjected to ischemia in the form of oxygen and glucose deprivation (OGD), and in vivo in rats subjected to an intrastriatal injection of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) or to the occlusion of middle-cerebral artery (MCAO). We show that postexcitotoxic-postischemic argon reduces OGD-induced cell injury in brain slices, and further reduces NMDA-induced brain damage and MCAO-induced cortical brain damage in rats. Contrasting with its beneficial effect at the cortical level, we show that postischemic argon increases MCAO-induced subcortical brain damage and provides no improvement of neurologic outcome as compared to control animals. These results extend previous data on the neuroprotective action of argon. Particularly, taken together with previous in vivo data that have shown that intraischemic argon has neuroprotective action at both the cortical and subcortical level, our findings on postischemic argon suggest that this noble gas could be administered during but not after ischemia, i.e. before but not after reperfusion has occurred, in order to provide cortical neuroprotection and to avoid increasing subcortical brain damage. Also, the effects of argon are discussed as regards to the oxygen-like chemical, pharmacological, and physical properties of argon. 相似文献

Abstract: Proteolytic degradation of numerous calpain substrates, including cytoskeletal and regulatory proteins, has been observed during brain ischemia and reperfusion. In addition, calpain inhibitors have been shown to decrease degradation of these proteins and decrease postischemic neuronal death. Although these observations support the inference of a role for μ-calpain in the pathophysiology of ischemic neuronal injury, the evidence is indirect. A direct indicator of μ-calpain proteolytic activity is autolysis of its 80-kDa catalytic subunit, and therefore we examined the μ-calpain catalytic subunit for evidence of autolysis during cerebral ischemia. Rabbit brain homogenates obtained after 0, 5, 10, and 20 min of cardiac arrest were electrophoresed and immunoblotted with a monoclonal antibody specific to the μ-calpain catalytic subunit. In nonischemic brain homogenates the antibody identified an 80-kDa band, which migrated identically with purified μ-calpain, and faint 78- and 76-kDa bands, which represent autolyzed forms of the 80-kDa subunit. The average density of the 80-kDa band decreased by 25 ± 4 ( p = 0.008) and 28 ± 9% ( p = 0.004) after 10 and 20 min of cardiac arrest, respectively, whereas the average density of the 78-kDa band increased by 111 ± 50% ( p = 0.02) after 20 min of cardiac arrest. No significant change in the density of the 76-kDa band was detected. These results provide direct evidence for autolysis of brain μ-calpain during cerebral ischemia. Further work is needed to characterize the extent, duration, and localization of μ-calpain activity during brain ischemia and reperfusion as well as its role in the causal pathway of postischemic neuronal injury. 相似文献

Diabetes is associated with increased neural damage after transient cerebral ischemia. Recently, leukocytes, which are thought to play a central role in ischemia-reperfusion injury, have been suggested to be involved in exacerbated damage after transient ischemia in diabetic animals. The present study was designed to clarify whether the anticipated worse outcome after transient cerebral ischemia in diabetic animals was due to augmented leukocyte-mediated neural injury. Using rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes of 4-wk duration, we investigated leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions during reperfusion after a transient 60-min period of retinal ischemia. Unexpectedly, postischemic diabetic retina showed no active leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions during reperfusion. The maximal numbers of rolling and accumulating leukocytes in diabetic retina were reduced by 73.6 and 41.2%, respectively, compared with those in nondiabetic rats. In addition, neither preischemic insulin treatment of diabetic rats nor preischemic glucose infusion of nondiabetic rats significantly influenced leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions during reperfusion. The present study demonstrated that high blood glucose concentration before induction of ischemia did not exacerbate leukocyte involvement in the postischemic retinal injury. Furthermore, diabetic retina showed suppressed leukocyte-endothelial cells interactions after transient ischemia, perhaps due to an adaptive mechanism that developed during the period of induced diabetes. 相似文献

This study was designed to investigate the influence of intraischemic liver temperature on oxidative stress during postischemic normothermic reperfusion. In C57BL/6 mice, partial hepatic ischemia was induced for 90 min and intraischemic organ temperature adjusted to 4 degrees C, 15 degrees C, 26 degrees C, 32 degrees C, and 37 degrees C. As detected by electron spin-resonance spectroscopy, plasma/blood concentrations of hydroxyl and ascorbyl radicals were significantly increased in all groups after ischemia/reperfusion independent of the intraischemic temperature. In tissue, however, postischemic lipid peroxidation was attenuated after organ cooling down to 32 degrees C-26 degrees C and not detectable after ischemia at 15 degrees C-4 degrees C. mRNA expression of superoxide dismutase-1 and heme oxygenase-1, measured during reperfusion, was significantly elevated in the group at 37 degrees C as compared to the hypothermic groups at 4 degrees C-32 degrees C. The reduction of radical generation was associated with a prevention of adenosine monophosphate hydrolysis during ischemia in the hypothermic groups. In conclusion, ischemia-reperfusion-induced oxidative stress in the liver tissue is non-linearly-dependent on intraischemic temperature, whereas the plasma/blood concentration of radicals is not affected by organ cooling. Oxidative stress is reduced through mild hypothermia at 32 degrees C-26 degrees C and inhibited completely at 15 degrees C. Reduction of initial intracellular radical generation and prevention of secondary oxidant-induced tissue injury are possible mechanisms of this protection. 相似文献

Detection of Free Radical Activity During Transient Global Ischemia and Recirculation: Effects of Intraischemic Brain Temperature Modulation 总被引:14,自引:2,他引:12

Abstract: To obtain direct evidence of oxygen radical activity in the course of cerebral ischemia under different intraischemic temperatures, we used a method based on the chemical trapping of hydroxyl radical in the form of the stable adducts 2,3- and 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHBA) following salicylate administration. Wistar rats were subjected to 20 min of global forebrain ischemia by two-vessel occlusion plus systemic hypotension (50 mm Hg). Intraischemic striatal temperature was maintained as normothermic (37°C), hypothermic (30°C), or hyperthermic (39°C) but was held at 37°C before and following ischemia. Salicylate was administered either systemically (200 mg/kg, i.p.) or by continuous infusion (5 mM) through a microdialysis probe implanted in the striatum. Striatal extracellular fluid was sampled at regular intervals before, during, and after ischemia, and levels of 2,3- and 2,5-DHBA were assayed by HPLC with electrochemical detection. Following systemic administration of salicylate, stable baseline levels of 2,3- and 2,5-DHBA were observed before ischemia. During 20 min of normothermic ischemia, a 50% reduction in mean levels of both DHBAs was documented, suggesting a baseline level of hydroxyl radical that was diminished during ischemia, presumably owing to oxygen restriction to tissue at that time. During recirculation, 2,3- and 2,5-DHBA levels increased by 2.5- and 2.8-fold, respectively. Levels of 2,3-DHBA remained elevated during 1 h of reperfusion, whereas the increase in 2,5-DHBA levels persisted for 2 h. The increases in 2,3- and 2,5-DHBA levels observed following hyperthermic ischemia were significantly higher (3.8- and fivefold, respectively). In contrast, no significant changes in DHBA levels were observed following hypothermic ischemia. The postischemic changes in DHBA content observed following local administration of salicylate were comparable to the results obtained with systemic administration, thus confirming that the hydroxyl radicals arose within brain parenchyma itself. These results provide evidence that hydroxyl radical levels are increased during postischemic recirculation, and this process is modulated by intraischemic brain temperature. Hence, these data suggest a possible mechanism for the effects of temperature on ischemic outcome and support a key role for free radical-induced injury in the development of ischemic damage. 相似文献

Postischemic temperature, which modulates brain injury, is commonly determined via a rectal temperature (Trec) probe. This procedure causes a stress-induced fever (SIF) in rodents that may aggravate injury or diminish the efficacy of a neuroprotectant. We continually measured core temperature (Tcore) via an implanted telemetry probe and made 16 Trec measurements over 4 days in sham and ischemic gerbils (5 min bilateral carotid artery occlusion). Controls did not have Trec sampled, but Tcore was measured. Rectal temperature measurements predicted Tcore in sham and ischemic gerbils. The Trec measurements caused a SIF (1 degrees C peak) in shams that did not habituate, whereas the SIF was initially absent and then increased over days in ischemic gerbils. Ischemic groups had similar CA1 injury (approximately 32% remaining), presumably because Trec measurements only resulted in a significant SIF starting on day 2 postischemia, when cell death is less sensitive to hyperthermia. Caution is warranted with Trec measurements, since the resultant SIF occurs to different extents in normal and ischemic rodents. Furthermore, the SIF could vary according to many other factors, such as the type and severity of insult, the time and frequency of measurement, and drug treatment. Accordingly, postischemic Trec measurements should be replaced with telemetry probes. 相似文献

Acute tubular necrosis is a frequent occurrence following hypovolemic shock and human renal transplantation. Although this postischemic injury was originally thought to result from ischemia alone, it has recently been recognized that significant tissue injury can occur during the period of reperfusion. The demonstration of the oxygen free-radical-mediated postischemic reperfusion injury by Granger, Rutili, and McCord in ischemic cat intestine suggested that this mechanism might also be operative following renal ischemia. In the kidney, postischemic injury results in necrosis of the proximal renal tubule and accumulation of erythrocytes in the outer renal medulla. It has been proposed that the primary event leading to these pathologic changes is a free-radical-mediated injury to the endothelial cells in the inner stripe of the outer medulla. Experimental evidence in animals subjected to warm and cold ischemia supports a free-radical-mediated mechanism. The clinical significance of these findings is demonstrated in preclinical animal studies of renal transplantation in which approximately two-thirds of the injury following cold ischemia could be ablated by superoxide dismutase administered just prior to reperfusion or by allopurinol when administered both at the time of preservation and reperfusion or at the time of preservation alone. 相似文献

Transient global ischemia (ISC) in rats and humans causes selective and delayed neuronal death in the hippocampal CA1 sector. It is clear from rodent studies that hyperthermia aggravates, whereas hypothermia lessens, this injury. In this study we sought to relate core (Tc) and brain (Tb) temperature, measured via telemetry probes, after ISC produced in rats by bilateral common carotid artery occlusion combined with systemic hypotension (2-VO model). We also tested whether spontaneous postischemic temperature fluctuations occurred and whether they were related to cell death as previous studies indicate. We report that Tc and Tb readings are similar and are highly correlated before and after 10 min of 2-VO ISC. In the second experiment, rats were subjected to 8, 9, or 10 min of 2-VO ISC. Despite a range in CA1 injury among these animals, there was no evidence of post-ISC hyperthermia, contrary to earlier work, and neither temperature nor the physiological variables measured during ISC (e.g., glucose) predicted injury. Our findings suggest that, under the present conditions, 2-VO rats do not experience postoperative hyperthermia, which can be adequately measured with Tc telemetry probes. 相似文献

Levels of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP), phosphatidylinositol (PI), phosphatidic acid, diacylglycerol (DAG), triacylglycerol (TAG), and free fatty acids (FFAs), as well as their fatty acid composition, were determined in rat forebrain during ischemia and postischemic recirculation. Cerebral energy state and electroencephalograms (EEGs) were also studied. Fifteen minutes of ischemia resulted in a decrease in PIP2 and PIP contents but not in PI content, concurrent with an enlargement of the FFA and DAG pools. The latter were enriched in stearate and arachidonate. Prolongation of ischemia did not produce further changes in content of any of the inositol phospholipids, but the increase in levels of FFAs and DAG continued. At the end of 45 min of ischemia, levels of both PIP2 and PIP decreased by 45-50%, and the total phosphoinositide content (PIP2 + PIP + PI) decreased by 21%, whereas levels of FFAs and DAG increased to 14- and 3.6-fold of control levels, respectively. During ischemia, the TAG-palmitate level decreased, but the TAG-arachidonate level increased; the tissue energy state deteriorated severely; and the EEG was suppressed. A 30-min recirculation period after 15 or 45 min of ischemia led to increases in PIP2, PIP, and total phosphoinositide contents, whereas levels of FFAs and DAG promptly decreased toward control values. The TAG-arachidonate level peaked and the TAG-palmitate level returned to a low control value during early recirculation. The ischemic changes in tissue lipids were completely reversed within 3 h of recirculation after both periods of ischemia. Adenylates were fully phosphorylated with as little as 30 min of reflow. The EEG activity partially recovered during reflow after 15 min of ischemia, whereas it remained depressed after prolonged ischemia. Thus, phosphodiesteric cleavage of PIP2 and PIP followed by deacylation of DAG is likely to contribute to the production of FFAs in early ischemia. Deacylation of undetermined lipids plays a role for the increment in levels of FFAs in the later period of ischemia. The rapid postischemic increase in levels of PIP2 and PIP indicates active synthesis not only from existing PI, but probably also by means of accumulated FFAs and DAG. These results indicate that the impaired resynthesis of inositol phospholipids cannot be a cause of the poor EEG activity after prolonged ischemia. Degradation and resynthesis of polyphosphoinositides and formation of TAG-arachidonate may be important for modulation of free arachidonic acid levels in the brain during temporary ischemia. 相似文献

Reactivity, thrombogeneity, and thromboresistance of the rat mesentery microvessels were studied in postischemic reperfusion of the intestine, the brain, an extremity. Irrespective of ischemia localisation, an augmentation of the microvessels reactivity and reduction of their thromboresistance, were found. The microvessels thrombogeneity was depended on the ischemia localisation: an augmentation of the thrombogenity occurred in arterioles whereas it was reduced in venules following the brain and intestine reperfusion. A possible mechanism of the phenomenon may involve a deficiency of the nitric oxide synthesis. 相似文献

Although reactive oxygen species are believed to participate in postischemic renal injury, the actual chemical species involved and the role of endogenous scavenging systems in protecting against injury requires additional study. Hydrogen peroxide, which derives from superoxide radical, is toxic and also yields toxic hydroxyl radical. 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole reacts with catalase to form irreversibly inactivated catalase only in the presence of hydrogen peroxide. We made use of this chemical reaction both to determine whether inhibition of the hydrogen peroxide-scavenging enzyme catalase would influence ischemic renal injury and to measure hydrogen peroxide production rates after ischemia. Sprague-Dawley rats were given aminotriazole (100 mg/kg) one hour before 40 min of renal ischemia. Twenty-four h after ischemia GFR had decreased to 300 microL/min in control animals and to 50 microL/min in aminotriazole-treated animals. Histologic evidence of injury was also worse in catalase-inhibited animals. To measure hydrogen peroxide production rates aminotriazole was given 60 min before measurement of renal catalase activity. In control animals, aminotriazole caused a 53.4% decrease in catalase activity. In animals subjected to 40 min of ischemia plus either 10 or 60 min of reflow catalase activity decreased by 33.9 and 49.5% (not significantly different from control). Thus, when measured by this method total renal hydrogen peroxide production was considerable but was not increased by ischemia. However, in isolated proximal tubule segments 60 min of anoxia and 30 min of reoxygenation caused a 42% increase in H2O2 released into the incubation medium. In summary, inhibition of catalase before ischemia led to exacerbation of ischemic injury.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Earlier results are reviewed suggesting that transient pronounced, incomplete cerebral ischemia could be more deleterious for the recovery of brain tissue energy state than a complete interruption of the blood flow. Measurements of respiratory function of brain mitochondria, isolated after 30 min of either complete or incomplete ischemia, demonstrated a similar inhibition of respiratory activity and maximal phosphorylation rates in both situations. This inhibition was totally normalized during recirculation after complete ischemia while a further deterioration was found after incomplete ischemia. The in vivo alterations of the cortical tissue distribution of redox states during transient, incomplete ischemia (15--60 min) were measured using a flying spot fluorometer, which gives a real-time and on-line display of the tissue distribution of NADH and oxidized flavoprotein. A reoxidation in both systems was demonstrated during the recirculation period and the distribution of redox states showed no further heterogeneity in the postischemic period as compared to the preischemic distribution. It is concluded that reoxygenation of the brain tissue is possible even after long periods of incomplete ischemia. The normal distribution of redox states during recirculation suggests that mechanisms other than an impaired or inhomogeneous oxygen delivery during the postischemic period are responsible for the failure in recovery of mitochondrial function and tissue energy state. 相似文献

Abstract: Numerous studies using adult animal models suggest that dichloroacetate (DCA) may have neuroprotective properties by virtue of its ability to increase rates of metabolism and, therefore, clearance of brain lactic acidosis, which may accumulate during cerebral ischemia. We tested the hypothesis that postischemic DCA administration affects lactate and acid clearance to different extents in immature versus mature brain. 31P and 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy were used to measure intracellular acid and lactate clearance rates in vivo in newborn and 1-month-old swine after a 14-min episode of transient near-complete global ischemia. Simultaneous monitoring of extracellular lactate efflux and clearance was measured in the same animals by in vivo microdialysis. Plasma glucose concentrations were elevated in order to study animals with severe cerebral lactic acidosis. Maximal levels of brain lactosis (16–20 µmol/g) and acidosis (pHintracellular 5.8–6.0) were reached during the first 10 min of recovery and were the same in age groups and in subgroups either acting as controls or treated with DCA (200 mg/kg) given from the last minute of ischemia to 5–7 min after ischemia. For newborns, DCA administration improved the postischemic clearance rate of cerebral acidosis and cerebral phosphocreatine, with similar trends for the clearance of lactosis and increased rates of recovery of nucleotide triphosphates, compared with controls. In contrast, DCA administration in 1-month-olds resulted in a modest trend for improvement of cerebral lactate clearance, but did not affect acid clearance or the recovery rate of phosphocreatine or nucleotide triphosphates. Extracellular brain lactate concentrations had similar relative increases and rates of decline for subgroups of either age treated with DCA versus controls. The results of this study indicate that postischemic DCA administration helps to resolve cerebral acidosis to a greater degree in immature than more mature brain, suggesting that DCA may have cerebroprotective properties for neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy. 相似文献

The relevance of malondialdehyde as a biochemical index of lipid peroxidation of postischemic tissues in the rat and human beings 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

By using a recently developed ion-pairing high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the direct determination of malondialdehyde
(MDA) and several other acid-soluble low-mol-wt compounds (ascorbate, oxypurines, nucleosides, nicotinic coenzymes, high-energy
phosphates), the variations of tissue and plasma MDA as a function of ischemia and reperfusion were determined in the rat
(isolated Langendorff-perfused hearts and short-term incomplete cerebral ischemia) and in human beings (patients suffering
from acute myocardial infarction subjected to fibrinolysis). In the rat, the data obtained indicate that, contrary to what
had been previously reported in literature, MDA is not present either in control heart or in control brain. Oxygen deprivation
induces the production of a low, but detectable amount of MDA in both heart and brain, whereas reperfusion causes a marked
increase of MDA in both tissues. In human beings, plasma MDA was deeply affected only in patients suffering from acute myocardial
infarction with successful thrombolysis, thus indicating the occurrence of oxygen radical-mediated tissue injury also in humans.
On the whole, these results suggest that MDA is a valid biochemical marker of lipid peroxidation of postischemic tissues,
which however needs a reliable analytical technique for its determination. 相似文献

The use of hypothermia to mitigate cerebral ischemic injury is not new. From early studies, it has been clear that cooling is remarkably neuroprotective when applied during global or focal ischemia. In contrast, the value of postischemic cooling is typically viewed with skepticism because of early clinical difficulties and conflicting animal data. However, more recent rodent experiments have shown that a protracted reduction in temperature of only a few degrees Celsius can provide sustained behavioral and histological neuroprotection. Conversely, brief or very mild hypothermia may only delay neuronal damage. Accordingly, protracted hypothermia of 32–34°C may be beneficial following acute clinical stroke. A thorough mechanistic understanding of postischemic hypothermia would lead to a more selective and effective therapy. Unfortunately, few studies have investigated the mechanisms by which postischemic cooling conveys its beneficial effect. The purpose of this article is to evaluate critically the effects of postischemic temperature changes with a comparison to some current drug therapies. This article will stimulate new research into the mechanisms of lengthy postischemic hypothermia and its potential as a therapy for stroke patients. 相似文献

We investigated whether the cardioprotection induced by heat stress (HS) pretreatment is associated with mitigation of phospholipid degradation during the ischemic and/or postischemic period. The hearts, isolated from control rats and from heat-pretreated rats (42 degrees C for 15 min) either 30 min (HS0.5-h) or 24 h (HS24-h) earlier, were subjected to 45 min of no-flow ischemia, followed by 45 min of reperfusion. Unesterified arachidonic acid (AA) accumulation was taken as a measure for phospholipid degradation. Significantly improved postischemic ventricular functional recovery was only found in the HS24-h group. During ischemia, AA accumulated comparably in control and both HS groups. During reperfusion in control and HS0.5-h hearts, AA further accumulated (control hearts from 82 +/- 33 to 109 +/- 51 nmol/g dry wt, not significant; HS-0.5h hearts from 52 +/- 22 to 120 +/- 53 nmol/g dry wt; P < 0.05). In contrast, AA was lower at the end of the reperfusion phase in HS24-h hearts than at the end of the preceding ischemic period (74 +/- 18 vs. 46 +/- 23 nmol/g dry wt; P < 0.05). Thus accelerated reperfusion-induced degradation of phospholipids in control hearts is completely absent in HS24-h hearts. Furthermore, the lack of functional improvement in HS0.5-h hearts is also associated with a lack of beneficial effect on lipid homeostasis. Therefore, it is proposed that enhanced membrane stability during reperfusion is a key mediator in the heat-induced cardioprotection. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of bosentan, a mixed endothelin receptor A and B subtype antagonist, on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury and to explore the influence of the timing of bosentan administration on its cardioprotective effects. Adult rat hearts were perfused by the Langendorff technique with Krebs-Henseleit solution (KH) at a constant flow rate at 10 mL/min. Global myocardial ischemia was induced by stopping KH perfusion for 40 min, and this was followed by 60 min of reperfusion. Hearts were randomized to 1 of 3 experimental groups (n = 7 each): untreated control; treatment with bosentan 1 micromol/L 10 min prior to, during 40 min global ischemia, and for 15 min of reperfusion (BOS); or treatment with bosentan 1 micromol/L after 15 min of reperfusion (BOS-R). We observed that BOS-R, but not the BOS treatment regimen, significantly reduced the release of cardiac-specific creatine kinase and postischemic myocardial infarct size (P < 0.05 vs. control) without affecting myocardial contractility. Left ventricular developed pressure in the BOS group was significantly (P < 0.01) lower than that in the control group throughout reperfusion. It is concluded that pharmacologically delayed antagonism of endothelin-1 during reperfusion attenuates postischemic myocardial injury. Endothelin-1 antagonist application during early reperfusion may exacerbate postischemic myocardial dysfunction. 相似文献
