Studies of vitamin B depletion in perfused hearts.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A progress report stated that perfused hearts could be maintained over a longer period if vitamin B complex were added to the perfusate. The present study comprises analyses of four of the B vitamins in muscle of control hearts, of hearts perfused with oxygenated Locke's solution and of hearts perfused with the same solution plus dihydropaveril. Statistically significant amounts of B vitamins disappear from the muscle during perfusion in comparison to values for control hearts.

EFFECT OF INSULIN IN THE PRESENCE OF GLUCOSE AND AFTER DEPLETION OF GLUCOSE, GLUCOSE 6-PHOSPHATE AND GLYCOGEN By ERNST B. CHAIN and PETER M. SENDER*
In the absence of glucose, insulin stimulated the incorporation of 14C-labelled amino acids into protein by perfused rat hearts that had been previously substantially depleted of endogenous glucose, glucose 6-phosphate and glycogen by substrate-free perfusion. This stimulation was also demonstrated in hearts perfused with buffer containing 2-deoxy-D-glucose, an inhibitor of glucose utilization....
متن کاملRole of Fructose as a Potent Antiarrhythmic and Anti-infarct agent in Isolated Rat Heart
In the current study, effects of acute short term administration of fructose on cardiac arrhythmias and myocardial infarction size following ischemia/reperfusion were investigated in isolated rat heart. The hearts were subjected to 30 min zero flow global ischemia followed by 120 min reperfusion. In the control group, the hearts were perfused by normal drug free Krebs-Henseleit (K/H) solution t...
متن کاملFree fatty acids, but not ketone bodies, protect diabetic rat hearts during low-flow ischemia.
To determine whether the effects of fatty acids on the diabetic heart during ischemia involve altered glycolytic ATP and proton production, we measured energetics and intracellular pH (pH(i)) by using (31)P NMR spectroscopy plus [2-(3)H]glucose uptake in isolated rat hearts. Hearts from 7-wk streptozotocin diabetic and control rats, perfused with buffer containing 11 mM glucose, with or without...
متن کاملMyocardial glutathione depletion impairs recovery of isolated blood-perfused hearts after global ischaemia.
This study was performed to determine whether depletion of myocardial glutathione would impair recovery of left ventricular function of blood-perfused, isolated hearts after reversible ischaemic injury. Cats were treated with either vehicle or buthionine sulfoximine (BSO), an inhibitor of gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase, the rate-limiting enzyme in the synthesis of glutathione. The feline iso...
متن کاملComparison between the effects of L-Carnitine and Acetyl-L-Carnitine on myocardial infarction size in ischemic heart
Introduction: In the present study, potential differences between the effects of L-carnitine (LC) and acetyl-Lcarnitine (ALC) on ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced myocardial infarction size were investigated. Methods: Male Wistar rats were randomly divided into five groups and then anesthetized by sodium pentobarbital. Hearts of the animals were removed and quickly mounted on a Langendorff ...
