Inhibition of RNA transcription modulates magnesium-supplemented potassium cardioplegia protection.
BACKGROUND Previously we reported that decreased postischemic functional recovery was associated with increased DNA fragmentation in the aged myocardium. Magnesium-supplemented potassium (K/Mg) cardioplegia ameliorated DNA fragmentation and enhanced post-ischemic functional recovery. We hypothesized that K/Mg cardioprotection might involve either an RNA- or a protein-dependent mechanism. METH...
متن کاملEvaluation of a variable ratio cardioplegia system.
Gish Biomedical has designed a blood cardioplegia delivery system (MyoManager) which is purported to provide rapid control of blood and crystalloid solution ratios for myocardial preservation. The present study was designed to evaluate the ability of this device to provide cardioplegia solutions of specific hematocrit and potassium ion concentrations ([K+]). An in vitro circuit was designed whe...
متن کاملExperimental Magnesium Depletion **†
I have both coveted and feared this opportunity to deliver the John P. Peters Lecture. Coveted it since, as a student of his, I wish to do him honor; and feared it since, as a student of his, I know I will not satisfy his requirements for excellence. Dr. Peters eschewed long introductions to scientific presentations and referred disparagingly to the early paragraphs as mere "throatclearing." In...
متن کاملNicorandil cardioplegia or procaine cardioplegia?
I read with interest the article by Steensrud and colleagues on myocardial protection with nicorandil cardioplegia [1]. The study investigates the protective efficacy of intermittent cold blood nicorandil cardioplegia compared with intermittent standard hyperkalemic cold blood and cold crystalloid cardioplegia in pigs undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass and hearts subjected to 60 min global ische...
