增强Na+-Ca2+交换对大鼠心脏的正性变力作用及对哇巴因效应的加强

本文采用大鼠乳头肌张力测定及离体心脏灌流技术,研究大鼠心肌Na -Ca2 交换对乳头肌及离体灌流心肌变力性的影响。采用大鼠特异性Na -Ca2 交换激动剂E-4031能剂量依赖性地增加大鼠乳头肌的发展张力(P<0.05,n=6)及离体心脏的心泵功能(P<0.05,n=4);特异性Na -Ca2 交换抑制剂KB-R7943具有相反的效应,并可完全消除E-4031引起的正性变力作用。哇巴因(ouabain,0.5μmol/L)与E-4031(3μmol/L)联合使用,可使乳头肌发展张力由单独使用哇巴因时的0.25±0.03 g升高至0.29±0.04g(P<0.05,n=6);联合用药对大鼠离体心脏心泵功能的影响也强于哇巴因单独作用的效果。本研究结果证实,E-4031通过增强心肌Na -Ca2 交换,对大鼠乳头肌和离体心脏产生正性变力作用;与哇巴因合用时,它们的正性变力作用有相加作用。

Enhancement of sodium-calcium exchange induces positive inotropic action and potentiates ouabain effect in rat hearts

To study the inotropic effect of enhanced Na(+)-Ca(2+) exchange in the rat papillary muscles and isolated heart, the developed tension in the rat papillary muscles was measured and the left ventricular functions were assessed in the isolated rat heart. E-4031, a selective activator for Na(+)-Ca(2+) exchange in rats, concentration-dependently increased the developed contractile tension in the rat papillary muscles (P<0.05, n=6) and the left ventricular functions in the isolated heart; KB-R7943, a selective Na(+)-Ca(2+) exchange inhibitor, exhibited opposite effect. A combination of 0.5 micromol/L ouabain and 3.0 micromol/L E-4031 resulted in a potentiation of the developed contractile tension of the rat papillary muscles from 0.25+/-0.03 g to 0.29+/-0.04 g. The combination also enhanced the augmentation of the left ventricular functions induced by ouabain. These results indicate that E-4031 exerts a positive inotropic effect on the rat papillary muscles and isolated heart via increasing the activity of Na(+)-Ca(2+) exchange, and potentiates the positive inotropic effects of ouabain.
