Preservation of myofilament calcium responsiveness underlies protection
Objective: Whereas diminution of infarct size by ischemic preconditioning (IP) is well-accepted, protection against stunning is 21 controversial. Since stunning is characterized by decreased myofilament Ca responsiveness, we investigated whether IP would preserve myofilament responsiveness in a model of stunning. Methods: Rat hearts were retrogradely perfused with Krebs–Henseleit (K–H) solution...
متن کاملLate Preconditioning against Myocardial Stunning
Introduction Conscious pigs underwent a sequence of 10 2-min coronary occlusions, each separated by 2 min of reperfusion, for three consecutive days (days 1, 2, and 3 of stage I). The recovery of systolic wall thickening (WTh) after the 10th reperfusion was markedly improved on days 2 and 3 compared with day 1, indicating that the myocardium had become preconditioned against "stunning." 10 d af...
متن کاملDecreased myofilament responsiveness in myocardial stunning follows transient calcium overload during ischemia and reperfusion.
The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that abnormal intracellular calcium handling characterizes myocardial stunning. Isolated, isovolumic, buffer-perfused ferret hearts were loaded with the bioluminescent calcium indicator aequorin for simultaneous measurement of individual calcium transients and left ventricular pressure. After 15 minutes of global ischemia and 20 minutes of re...
متن کاملIschemic preconditioning: Protection against myocardial necrosis and apoptosis
The phenomenon of ischemic preconditioning has been recognized as one of the most potent mechanisms to protect against myocardial ischemic injury. In experimental animals and humans, a brief period of ischemia has been shown to protect the heart from more prolonged episodes of ischemia, reducing infarct size, attenuating the incidence, and severity of reperfusion-induced arrhythmias, and preven...
متن کاملDoes myocardial stunning contribute to infarct size limitation by ischemic preconditioning?
BACKGROUND The mechanism through which ischemic preconditioning causes cardioprotection is unknown. The present study investigated the role of stunning in preconditioning. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied three different protocols of preconditioning: two cycles of 2-minute ischemia separated by 5-minute reperfusion (2'PC), one cycle of 5-minute ischemia by 5-minute reperfusion (5'PC1), and two ...
