Improved myocardial preservation with short hyperthermia prior to cold cardioplegic ischemia in immature rabbit hearts.
OBJECTIVE Recent observations have been shown that the induction and accumulation of heat shock proteins (HSPs) by short exposure to nonlethal whole-body hyperthermia with normothermic recovery are closely associated with transient resistance to subsequent ischemia-reperfusion challanges. Here, this study was performed to investigate whether a shortly heat shock pretreatment affects the left ve...
متن کاملNovel vs clinical organ preservation solutions: improved cardiac mitochondrial protection
BACKGROUND Heart transplantation remains the gold standard for end-stage heart failure, with current ex vivo organ storage times limited to 4 to 6 h before critical tissue damage occurs. Many preservation solutions exist in an attempt to limit both ischemic and reperfusion damage. In order to compare the effects of various storage solutions, mitochondrial function can be used to provide a sensi...
متن کاملImproved myocardial function using a Na+/H+ exchanger inhibitor during cardioplegic arrest and cardiopulmonary bypass.
INTRODUCTION We have demonstrated that a component of post-cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB)/cardioplegic arrest (CPA) myocardial dysfunction is related to myocardial edema. Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion that occurs with CPB/CPA activates the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger to normalize intracellular pH, with intracellular Na(+) (and water) accumulation. We hypothesized that Na(+)/H(+) exchanger inhibition w...
متن کاملImproved hypothermic short-term storage of isolated mouse islets by adding serum to preservation solutions
Preserving isolated islets at low temperature appears attractive because it can keep islet quantity comparable to freshly isolated islets. In this study, we evaluated the effect of serum as an additive to preservation solutions on islet quality after short-term hypothermic storage. Isolated mouse islets were preserved at 4°C in University of Wisconsin solution (UW) alone, UW with serum, M-Kyoto...
متن کاملImproved Synthesis of Vasicinone
A new, high yielding method for the preparation of vasicinone (7) is described. Reaction of 2-nitrobenzoic acid with N, N¢-carbonyldiimidazole followed by 2-pyrrolidinone gave 1-(2-nitrobenzoyl)pyrrolidine-2-one (3). Reduction of the latter with 10% Pd-C afforded deoxyvasicinone (4). Reaction of deoxyvasicinone (4) with bromine yielded monobromo-deoxyvasicinone (5). Exchange of bro...
