The effect of regional ischemia on canine myocardial in situ free radical species was studied by the EPR method. Rapid fixation of heart muscle samples by freezeclamping was performed at the following physiological states: native myocardial blood circulation, regional ischemia with the presence of collateral circulation, total ischemia, and postischemic reperfusion. EPR spectra of the samples at -40 degrees C exhibited two free radical signals from the semireduced forms of ubiquinone and flavine coenzymes. Upon transition from normal blood supply to regional ischemia, an increase in the contribution of the flavine signal was registered, but reperfusion resulted in the recovery of the characteristics of EPR signals. It was found that the increase in the intensity of collateral circulation in the ischemic area led to an increase in the portion of ubisemiquinone in the integral EPR signal, whereas in total ischemia this signal was not registered. It was shown that the changes in spectral characteristics of integral free radical signals are accompanied by changes in their relaxation parameters. 相似文献

Protein kinase A (PKA) activation has been implicated in early-phase ischemic preconditioning. We recently found that during ischemia PKA activation causes inactivation of cytochrome-c oxidase (CcO) and contributes to myocardial damage due to ischemia-reperfusion. It may be that beta-adrenergic stimulation during ischemia via endogenous catecholamine release activates PKA. Thus beta-adrenergic stimulation may mediate both myocardial protection and damage during ischemia. The present studies were designed to determine the role of the beta(1)-adrenergic receptor (beta(1)-AR) in myocardial ischemic damage and ischemic preconditioning. Langendorff-perfused rabbit hearts underwent 30-min ischemia by anterior coronary artery ligation followed by 2-h reperfusion. Occlusion-reperfusion damage was evaluated by delineating the nonperfused volume of myocardium at risk and volume of myocardial necrosis after 2-h reperfusion. In some hearts ischemic preconditioning was accomplished by two 5-min episodes of global low-flow ischemia separated by 10 min before coronary occlusion-reperfusion. Orthogonal electrocardiograms were recorded, and coronary flow was monitored by a drip count. Three hearts from each experimental group were used to determine mitochondrial CcO and aconitase activities. Two-hour reperfusion after occlusion caused an additional decrease in CcO activity vs. that after 30-min occlusion alone. Blocking the beta(1)-AR during occlusion-reperfusion reversed CcO activity depression and preserved myocardium at risk for necrosis. Similarly, mitochondrial aconitase activity exhibited a parallel response after occlusion-reperfusion as well as for the other interventions. Furthermore, classic ischemic preconditioning had no effect on CcO depression. However, blocking the beta(1)-AR during preconditioning eliminated the cardioprotection. If the beta(1)-AR was blocked after preconditioning, the myocardium was preserved. Interestingly, in both of the latter cases the depression in CcO activity was reversed. Thus the beta(1)-AR plays a dual role in myocardial ischemic damage. Our findings may lead to therapeutic strategies for preserving myocardium at risk for infarction, especially in coronary reperfusion intervention. 相似文献

AIM OF THE STUDY: To determine the effects of two-staged ischemic preconditioning on myocardial noradrenaline in prolonged ischemia and reperfusion. METHODS: Thirty-two male Wistar rats anesthetised with urethane randomly divided into 2 groups: group 1 (ischemic preconditioning group, n = 16), and group 2 (control, n = 16). Myocardial interstitial noradrenaline levels were measured using a microdialysis technique. Ischemic preconditioning was elicited by two episodes: 5 min of ischemia and 10 min of reperfusion. The intermittent occlusions were followed by prolonged occlusion (60 min) and reperfusion (60 min). RESULTS: An increase in interstitial noradrenaline was observed in 10 min of prolonged ischemia in group 2, and in 20 min in group 1. After 20 min of myocardial ischemia there was a significant difference between groups (p < 0.05) in interstitial noradrenaline levels. In control group, it was 60% higher. In reperfusion, noradrenaline levels decreased markedly in group 1. CONCLUSION: We suggest that ischemic preconditioning by two episodes: 5-min ischemia and 10-min reperfusion prevents excessive noradrenaline interstitial accumulation, perhaps, through protection of physiological uptake I carrier. 相似文献

Injection of dinitrosyl iron complexes with glutathione at the onset of 40-min regional myocardial ischemia in rat was shown
to exert a clear cardioprotective action by decreasing the infarct size and suppressing the cardiac rhythm disturbance. After
introducing the preparation, its effective accumulation with protein thiol-containing ligands in the myocardial tissue was
registered be the EPR method. It was also found that in postischemic reperfusion, the rate of decrease in the content of these
complexes in the ischemic area increases, which reflects effective scavenging of short-lived reactive oxygen species by the
dinitrosyl iron complexes. 相似文献

The injection of dinitrosyliron iron complexes with glutathione at the onset of 40-min rat regional myocardial ischemia was shown to exert a clear cardioprotective action by decreasing the infarct size and suppressing the cardiac rhythm disturbance. After the introduction of the preparation, its effective accumulation with protein thiol-containing ligands in the myocardial tissue was registered be the EPR method. It was also found that, as a result of postischemic reperfusion, the rate of the decrease in the content of these complexes in the ischemic area increases, which demonstrates the effective scavenging of short-lived reactive oxygen species by molecules of dinitrosyl iron complexes. 相似文献

Real-time continuous-flow spin trapping of hydroxyl free radical in the ischemic and post-ischemic myocardium 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Real-time monitoring of spin-trapped oxygen-derived free radicals released by the isolated ischemic and reperfused rat heart has been achieved by ESR analysis of the coronary effluents using continuous flow detection and high-speed acquisition techniques. Two nitrone spin traps 5,5-dimethyl pyrroline 1-oxide (Me2PnO) and 3,3,5,5-tetramethyl pyrroline 1-oxide (MePnO) have been separately perfused at a concentration of 40 mM during a sequence of 50 min of low-flow ischemia (1 ml/min) followed by 30 min of global ischemia and subsequent reperfusion at the control flow rate (14 ml/min). ESR spectra were sequentially obtained in 5-min or 30-s blocks during low-flow ischemia and reperfusion, respectively. 1. The results show the formation of OH. free radicals in the ischemic and reperfused heart, as demonstrated by the observation of Me2PnO-OH (aN = aH = 14.9 G; g = 2.0053) and Me4PnO-OH (aN = 15.2 G, aH = 16.8 G; g = 2.0055) spin adducts. There is no evidence of significant biological carbon-centered or peroxyl free radicals spin-adduct formation in the coronary effluents or in lipid extracts analyzed after reflow. 2. The OH. generation began 15-20 min after the onset of ischemia and was moderate, peaking at 30-40 min. During reperfusion, an intense formation of OH. spin adducts was observed, with a maximum at 30-60 s and a further gradual decrease over the following 2 min. 3. Cumulative integrated values of the amount of spin adducts released during the ischemic period show a Me2PnO-OH level fourfold greater than that of Me4PnO-OH. It was 2.5 times greater during reflow, reflecting slower kinetics with the more stable Me4PnO. 4. The original ESR detection technique developed in this study allows accurate real-time quantitative monitoring of the oxygen-derived free radicals generated during myocardial injury. It might provide a quick and reliable new means for assessing the efficacy of free-radical inhibitors. 相似文献

The effects of myocardial stunning and ischemic preconditioning on left-ventricular developed pressure and end-diastolic pressure (diastolic stiffness) as well as on coronary-perfusion pressure were examined in isolated isovolumic rabbit hearts. The isovolumic relaxation was evaluated, and the time constant of pressure decay during the isovolumic period was calculated. Our experimental protocol comprised: 1) myocardial stunning-global ischemia (15 min) followed by reperfusion (30 min); 2) myocardial stunning-global ischemia (20 min) followed by reperfusion (30 min); and 3) ischemic preconditioning — a single cycle of brief global ischemia and reperfusion (5 min each), before a second ischemic period, of 20-min duration. There was no effect upon systolic and diastolic parameters when 15 and 20 minutes of ischemia were evaluated. In both stunned groups the left ventricular developed pressure first recovered to near control values, but then stabilized at only 60% of the control values. Whereas the isovolumic relaxation time constant was increased after 5 min of reperfusion, and return to control values at late reperfusion, the end diastolic pressure remained elevated during the entire period. Values of dP/dV calculated at common pressure levels, were used as a second index of diastolic stiffness. They were increased after stunning, as also was the coronary perfusion pressure. When the heart was preconditioned with a single episode of ischemia, the systolic and diastolic alterations were completely abolished. We thus concluded that diastolic abnormalities incurred by myocardial stunning consist in both an increase in diastolic stiffness and an early impairment of isovolumic relaxation. The increase in stiffness cannot result from incomplete relaxation since these two parameters become temporally dissociated during the reperfusion period. 相似文献

The role for peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)) in the mechanism of preconditioning is not known. Therefore, we studied effects of preconditioning and subsequent ischemia/reperfusion on myocardial ONOO(-) formation in isolated rat hearts. Hearts were subjected to a preconditioning protocol (three intermittent periods of global ischemia/reperfusion of 5 min duration each) followed by a test ischemia/reperfusion (30 min global ischemia and 15 min reperfusion). When compared to nonpreconditioned controls, preceding preconditioning improved postischemic cardiac performance and significantly decreased test ischemia/reperfusion-induced formation of free nitrotyrosine measured in the perfusate as a marker for cardiac endogenous ONOO(-) formation. During preconditioning, however, the first period of ischemia/reperfusion increased nitrotyrosine formation, which was attenuated after the third period of ischemia/reperfusion. We conclude that classic preconditioning inhibits ischemia/reperfusion-induced cardiac formation of ONOO(-) and that subsequent periods of ischemia/reperfusion result in a gradual attenuation of ischemia/reperfusion-induced ONOO(-) generation. This mechanism might be involved in ischemic adaptation of the heart. 相似文献

Previous studies demonstrated that preconditioning of a heart by repeated stunning can reduce the cellular injury to the heart from subsequent acute ischemic insult. To examine the possible biochemical mechanism for such myocardial preservation afforded by preconditioning, swine heart was subjected to four episodes of 5 min. stunning by occluding the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD), followed by 10 min. of reperfusion after each stunning. Heart was then made regionally ischemic for 60 min. by LAD occlusion, followed by 6 hrs. reperfusion. Control heart was perfused for 60 min., followed by 60 min. ischemia and 6 hrs. reperfusion. The results of our studies indicated the stimulation of a number of antioxidative enzymes, including Mn-superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD), catalase, glutathione peroxidase, and glutathione reductase, after repeated stunning and reperfusion. In addition, a number of new proteins were expressed after preconditioning the heart, including some oxidative-stress related proteins and 72 kDa heat-shock protein. These results suggest that preconditioning of a heart by repeated stunning may lead to strengthening of the oxidative defense system of the heart, which is likely to play a role in myocardial preservation during subsequent ischemic and reperfusion injury. 相似文献

The possible relationships between intracellular Na(+) (Na(i)(+)), bioenergetic status and intracellular pH (pH(i)) in the mechanism for ischemic preconditioning were studied using (23)Na and (31)P magnetic resonance spectroscopy in isolated Langendorff perfused rat heart. The ischemic preconditioning (three 5-min ischemic episodes followed by two 5-min and one 10-min period of reperfusion) prior to prolonged ischemia (20 min stop-flow) resulted in a decrease in ischemic acidosis and faster and complete recovery of cardiac function (ventricular developed pressure and heart rate) after 30 min of reperfusion. The response of Na(i) during ischemia in the preconditioned hearts was characterized by an increase in Na(i)(+) at the end of preconditioning and an accelerated decrease during the first few minutes of reperfusion. During post-ischemic reperfusion, bioenergetic parameters (PCr/P(i) and betaATP/P(i) ratios) were partly recovered without any significant difference between control and preconditioned hearts. The reduced acidosis during prolonged ischemia and the accelerated decrease in Na(i)(+) during reperfusion in the preconditioned hearts suggest activation of Na(+)/H(+) exchanger and other ion transport systems during preconditioning, which may protect the heart from intracellular acidosis during prolonged ischemia, and result in better recovery of mechanical function (LVDP and heart rate) during post-ischemic reperfusion. 相似文献

Ischemic preconditioning has been shown to protect several organs from ischemia/reperfusion-induced injury. In the pancreas, protective effect of ischemic preconditioning has been shown against pancreatitis evoked by ischemia/reperfusion, as well as by caerulein. However, the effect of ischemic preconditioning on the course of acute pancreatic is unclear. The aim of our study was to evaluate the influence of ischemic preconditioning on pancreatic regeneration and pancreatic presence of platelet-derived growth factor-A (PDGF-A) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the course of ischemia/reperfusion-induced pancreatitis. METHODS: In male Wistar rats, ischemic preconditioning of the pancreas was performed by short-term clamping of celiac artery (twice for 5 min with 5 min interval). Acute pancreatitis was induced by clamping of inferior splenic artery for 30 min followed by reperfusion. Rats were sacrificed 1, 5, 12 h or 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9 and 21 days after the start of reperfusion. Severity of acute pancreatitis and pancreatic regeneration were determined by biochemical and morphological examination, expression of growth factors was determined by immunohistochemical analysis. RESULTS: In ischemia/reperfusion-induced pancreatitis, the pancreatic damage reached the maximal range between the first and second day of reperfusion, and was followed by subsequent pancreatic regeneration. Ischemic preconditioning alone caused mild passing pancreatic damage and an increase in plasma concentration of pro-inflammatory interleukin-1 and anti-inflammatory interleukin-10. Ischemic preconditioning applied before ischemia/reperfusion-induced pancreatitis reduced morphological and biochemical signs of the pancreatitis-evoked pancreatic damage and accelerated pancreatic regeneration. This effect was associated with improvement of pancreatic blood flow. Ischemic preconditioning, ischemia/reperfusion-induced pancreatitis and their combination increased the presence of VEGF in acinar and islet cells, and immunostaining for PDGF-A in blood vessels. This effect was maximally pronounced after combination of ischemic preconditioning plus pancreatitis and occurred earlier than after pancreatitis alone. CONCLUSIONS: Ischemic preconditioning reduces pancreatic damage and accelerates pancreatic healing in the course of ischemia/reperfusion-induced pancreatitis. This effect is associated with the increase in plasma concentration of anti-inflammatory interleukin-10, improvement of pancreatic blood flow and alteration of pancreatic immunohistochemical expression of PDGF-A and VEGF. 相似文献

The present study has been designed to investigate the potential role of CCR-2 chemokine receptor in ischemic preconditioning as well as postconditioning induced reversal of ischemia-reperfusion injury in mouse brain. Bilateral carotid artery occlusion of 17min followed by reperfusion for 24h was employed in present study to produce ischemia and reperfusion induced cerebral injury in mice. Cerebral infarct size was measured using triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining. Memory was evaluated using elevated plus-maze test and Morris water maze test. Rota rod test was employed to assess motor incoordination. Bilateral carotid artery occlusion followed by reperfusion produced cerebral infarction and impaired memory and motor co-ordination. Three preceding episodes of bilateral carotid artery occlusion for 1min and reperfusion of 1min were employed to elicit ischemic preconditioning of brain, while three episodes of bilateral carotid artery occlusion for 10s and reperfusion of 10s immediately after the completion of were employed to elicit ischemic postconditioning of brain. Both prior ischemic preconditioning as well as ischemic postconditioning immediately after global cerebral ischemia prevented markedly ischemia-reperfusion-induced cerebral injury as measured in terms of infarct size, loss of memory and motor coordination. RS 102895, a selective CCR-2 chemokine receptor antagonist, attenuated the neuroprotective effect of both the ischemic preconditioning as well as postconditioning. It is concluded that the neuroprotective effect of both ischemic preconditioning as well as ischemic postconditioning may involve the activation of CCR-2 chemokine receptors. 相似文献

Preconditioning decreases ischemia/reperfusion-induced release and activation of matrix metalloproteinase-2 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Release and activation of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) significantly contribute to myocardial stunning injury immediately after ischemia and reperfusion, however, their role in preconditioning remains unknown. We therefore examined the effects of preconditioning and subsequent ischemia/reperfusion on MMP activity in isolated rat hearts. Hearts were subjected to a preconditioning protocol (three consecutive 5-min periods of global ischemia interspersed with 5 min of reperfusion) followed by 30 min ischemia and 5 min reperfusion. To measure MMP release, coronary effluent was collected: (a) during aerobic perfusion, (b) in reperfusion following each preconditioning ischemia, and (c) during the final reperfusion following test ischemia. MMP-2 activities could be detected by gelatin zymography in the ventricles and coronary effluent samples from the perfused hearts. The levels of MMP-2 activity in the effluent were markedly increased in effluent following test ischemia from control hearts without preconditioning. This was accompanied by a decrease in corresponding tissue MMP activities. Preconditioning significantly decreased the MMP-2 activity in the coronary effluent following test ischemia/reperfusion and preserved the MMP-2 protein content and activity in the myocardium. Our results demonstrate that classic preconditioning inhibits ischemia/reperfusion induced release and activation of MMP-2. These results suggest that preconditioning may exert part of its cardioprotective effects through the reduction of MMP-2 release. 相似文献

The role of C-reactive protein in ischemia/reperfusion injury and preconditioning in a rat model of myocardial infarction 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
For the first time the involvement of C-Reactive protein (CRP) in early (acute) and delayed ischemic (IPC) and pharmacological (chemical) preconditioning (CPC) in an in vivo model of rat myocardial infarction was presented. Acute IPC was produced by three 5 minute occlusion (ischemia) periods interspersed with 5 minute reperfusion, followed by 30 minute occlusion of the left coronary artery and 2 hour reperfusion injury. Acute CPC was produced by a k-opioid receptor agonist U50488H (5 mg/kg) applied i.v. 15 minutes before 30 minute ischemia/ 2 hour reperfusion. Delayed preconditioning was produced by 30 minute ischemia/ 2 hour reperfusion, induced 24 hour after either ischemic or pharmacological preconditioning. The myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury was evaluated on the basis of total and cardiac creatine kinase isoenzyme activity, functional recovery of the heart (ECG), infarct size (% IS/RA) and mortality at the end of the experiments. The results obtained showed that: k-opioid receptor agonist U50488H mimics both the acute and delayed IPC in the above experimental protocol; Both acute IPC and most probably CPC act by opening of K(ATP) channels (the effects were blocked by nonspecific ATP-sensitive K channel blocker glybenclamide), and via activation of protein kinase C (a selective protein kinase C inhibitor chelerythrine blocked the efects); C-reactive protein (CRP) was significantly elevated by 54% in non-preconditioned acute ischemia/reperfusion injury. The elevation was more pronounced (82% increase) 24 hour after non-preconditioned ischemia/reperfusion injury. It reflected very well the increase in cardiac isoenzymes, infarct size and mortality of the rats, and can be used as a marker of the severity of myocardial injury in this model; The increase of CRP was prevented by both IPC and CPC in early, and especially in late preconditioning. This confirms the involvement of CRP as a marker in cardiac ischemic/reperfusion injury. It was concluded that in addition to the established involvement of adenosine, bradykinin, opioid and other receptors, a suppression of myocardial CRP/complement production might be involved in the biological mechanism of preconditioning. This could be a promising perspective in clinical interventions against ischemia/reperfusion injuries of the heart. 相似文献

Remote ischemic preconditioning reduces myocardial infarction (MI) in animal models. We tested the hypothesis that the systemic protection thus induced is effective when ischemic preconditioning is administered during ischemia (PerC) and before reperfusion and examined the role of the K(+)-dependent ATP (K(ATP)) channel. Twenty 20-kg pigs were randomized (10 in each group) to 40 min of left anterior descending coronary artery occlusion with 120 min of reperfusion. PerC consisted of four 5-min cycles of lower limb ischemia by tourniquet during left anterior descending coronary artery occlusion. Left ventricular (LV) function was assessed by a conductance catheter and extent of infarction by tetrazolium staining. The extent of MI was significantly reduced by PerC (60.4 +/- 14.3 vs. 38.3 +/- 15.4%, P = 0.004) and associated with improved functional indexes. The increase in the time constant of diastolic relaxation was significantly attenuated by PerC compared with control in ischemia and reperfusion (P = 0.01 and 0.04, respectively). At 120 min of reperfusion, preload-recruitable stroke work declined 38 +/- 6% and 3 +/- 5% in control and PerC, respectively (P = 0.001). The force-frequency relation was significantly depressed at 120 min of reperfusion in both groups, but optimal heart rate was significantly lower in the control group (P = 0.04). There were fewer malignant arrhythmias with PerC during reperfusion (P = 0.02). These protective effects of PerC were abolished by glibenclamide. Intermittent limb ischemia during myocardial ischemia reduces MI, preserves global systolic and diastolic function, and protects against arrhythmia during the reperfusion phase through a K(ATP) channel-dependent mechanism. Understanding this process may have important therapeutic implications for a range of ischemia-reperfusion syndromes. 相似文献

In addition to the generation from specific nitric-oxide (NO) synthases, NO formation from nitrite occurs in ischemic tissues, such as the heart. Although NO binding to heme-centers is the basis for NO-mediated signaling as occurs through guanylate cyclase, it is not known if this process is triggered with physiologically relevant periods of sublethal ischemia and if nitrite serves as a critical substrate. Therefore electron paramagnetic resonance studies were performed to measure nitrosylheme formation during the time course of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion and the role of nitrite in this process. Rat hearts were either partially nitrite-depleted by nitrite-free buffer perfusion or nitrite-enriched by preinfusion with 50 microm nitrite. Ischemic hearts loaded with nitrite showed prominent spectra of six-coordinate nitrosyl-heme complexes, primarily NO-myoglobin, that increased as a function of ischemic duration, whereas in nonischemic-controls these signals were not seen. Total nitrosyl-heme concentrations within the heart were 6.6 +/- 0.7 microm after 30 min of ischemia. Nitrite-depleted hearts also gave rise to NO-heme signals during ischemia, but levels were 8-fold lower. Nitrite-mediated NO-heme complex formation during ischemia was associated with activation of guanylate cyclase. Upon reperfusion, the levels of NO-heme complexes decreased 3-fold by the first 15 min but remained elevated for over 45 min. The decrease in NO-heme complex levels was paralleled by the formation of nitrate, suggesting the oxidation of heme-bound NO upon reperfusion. Thus, nitrite-mediated NO-heme formation occurs progressively during ischemia, with these complexes serving as a store of NO with concordant activation of NO signaling pathways. 相似文献

Brief episodes of tachycardia without myocardial ischemia prior to a coronary occlusion decrease myocardial infarct size in dogs. This non-ischemic preconditioning is mediated by adenosine. Because ischemic preconditioning is mediated through ATP dependent potassium channels, particularly the mitochondrial ones, we studied whether non-ischemic preconditioning is also mediated through these channels. In anesthetized dogs heart rate was kept constant at 120 cycles/min and aortic pressure changes were damped. Myocardial infarction was induced by occlusion of the anterior descending coronary artery for 60 min and reperfusion for 270 min. In a control group the infarct size (necrotic volume/risk region volume × 100) was 15.8 ± 1.5%. Preconditioning with five periods of tachycardia, 5 min in duration each at 213 cycles/min with intervening periods of 5 min of basal heart rate at 120 cycles/min, reduced the infarct size by 45.6% (p < 0.05) with respect to the control group. This effect was completely reverted by the blockade of ATP dependent potassium channels with glibenclamide or 5 hydroxydecanoate (a specific blocker of mitochondrial ATP dependent potassium channels) prior to preconditioning. These effects were not due to differences in collateral flow, risk region size or hemodynamic variables between the groups. These results show that mitochondrial ATP dependent potassium channels mediate non-ischemic preconditioning by tachycardia in dogs. 相似文献

Melatonin does not prevent the protection of ischemic preconditioning in vivo despite its antioxidant effect against oxidative stress 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Free radicals are involved in the protective mechanism of preconditioning (PC), whereas antioxidant compounds abolish this benefit. Melatonin is a hormone with antioxidant properties. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of melatonin on infarct size in ischemic preconditioning in vivo. We randomly divided 33 male rabbits into four groups and subjected them to 30 min of myocardial ischemia and 3 h of reperfusion with the following prior interventions: (i) no intervention, (ii) iv melatonin at a total dose of 50 mg/kg, (iii) PC with two cycles of 5 min ischemia and 10 min reperfusion, and (iv) combined melatonin and PC. In a second series of experiments, another antioxidant agent N-acetylcysteine (NAC) was used in a control and in a PC group. Myocardial infarct size was determined and blood samples were drawn at different time points for the determination of lipid peroxidation products, total superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, and (1)H-NMR spectra to evaluate the changes in the metabolic profile. Melatonin showed no effect on myocardial infarct size in the group of sustained ischemia (42.9 +/- 3.6% vs 47.4 +/- 4.9%) and it did not attenuate the reduction of myocardial infarct size in the PC group (13.6 +/- 2.4% vs 14.0 +/- 1.7%). A similar effect was found in NAC-treated groups (44.8 +/- 3.4% vs 14.3 +/- 1.3%). Lipid peroxidation product levels were significantly elevated in the control and PC groups, whereas melatonin decreased them in both groups. The SOD activity was enhanced in the PC group compared to controls; melatonin kept SOD activity unchanged during ischemia/reperfusion and enhanced its activity when it was combined with PC. Melatonin did not change the metabolic profile of the control and PC groups. Melatonin does not prevent the beneficial effect of ischemic PC on infarct size despite its antioxidant properties. 相似文献
