چکیده

Optimal timing of therapeutic hypothermia for cardiac ischemia is unknown. Our prior work suggests that ischemia with rapid reperfusion (I/R) in cardiomyocytes can be more damaging than prolonged ischemia alone. Also, these cardiomyocytes demonstrate protein kinase C (PKC) activation and nitric oxide (NO) signaling that confer protection against I/R injury. Thus we hypothesized that hypothermia will protect most using extended ischemia and early reperfusion cooling and is mediated via PKC and NO synthase (NOS). Chick cardiomyocytes were exposed to an established model of 1-h ischemia/3-h reperfusion, and the same field of initially contracting cells was monitored for viability and NO generation. Normothermic I/R resulted in 49.7 +/- 3.4% cell death. Hypothermia induction to 25 degrees C was most protective (14.3 +/- 0.6% death, P < 0.001 vs. I/R control) when instituted during extended ischemia and early reperfusion, compared with induction after reperfusion (22.4 +/- 2.9% death). Protection was completely lost if onset of cooling was delayed by 15 min of reperfusion (45.0 +/- 8.2% death). Extended ischemia/early reperfusion cooling was associated with increased and sustained NO generation at reperfusion and decreased caspase-3 activation. The NOS inhibitor N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (200 microM) reversed these changes and abrogated hypothermia protection. In addition, the PKCepsilon inhibitor myr-PKCepsilon v1-2 (5 microM) also reversed NO production and hypothermia protection. In conclusion, therapeutic hypothermia initiated during extended ischemia/early reperfusion optimally protects cardiomyocytes from I/R injury. Such protection appears to be mediated by increased NO generation via activation of protein kinase Cepsilon; nitric oxide synthase.

State of the art in therapeutic hypothermia.

Historically, hypothermia was induced prior to surgery to enable procedures with prolonged ischemia, such as open heart surgery and organ transplant. Within the past decade, the efficacy of hypothermia to treat emergency cases of ongoing ischemia such as stroke, myocardial infarction, and cardiac arrest has been studied. Although the exact role of ischemia/reperfusion is unclear clinically, hyp...

Objective(s):To investigate the effects of local mild hypothermia on the expression of Fas, FasL and MMP-3 after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats. Materials and Methods:Male Wistar rats were divided into sham-operated group (Sham), normothermia group (NT), and hypothermia group (HT). MCAO/R model was established by Longa’s method, and reperfusion was allowed after 2 hr occlusion. Mild hypo...

The Role of Exercise Preconditioning in Cardioprotection against Ischemia Reperfusion Injury

Cardiovascular diseases are still the main cause of mortality around the world. Therefore, it is essential to develop practical means to reduce their burden. A wealth of evidence supports the role of physical exercise in attenuating many of the risk factors of cardiovascular diseases. Moreover, endurance training warrants protection against myocardial infarction. Exercise, even if performed ...

Effects of hypothermia on neuronal-vascular function after cerebral ischemia in piglets.

We determined whether cerebral arteriolar dilation to N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA), a response dependent on stimulation of cortical neurons and inhibited by anoxic stress, would be preserved by hypothermia during and following ischemia. Pial arteriolar diameters in anesthetized piglets were determined via intravital microscopy. Arteriolar responses to NMDA (10, 50, and 100 micromol/l) were measu...
