Oxygen reperfusion is limited in the postischemic hypertrophic myocardium.

چکیده
Studies have shown that hypertrophied hearts are unusually vulnerable to ischemia. Compromised O2 supply has been postulated as a possible explanation for this phenomenon on the basis of elongated O2 diffusion distance and altered coronary vasculature found in hypertrophied myocardium. To examine the postulate, perfused heart experiments followed the metabolic and functional responses of hypertrophic myocardium to ischemia. 1H/31P NMR was used to measure cellular oxygenation and energy level during ischemia-reperfusion. The left ventricles from spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) were enlarged by 48%. With this moderate degree of hypertrophy, cellular O2 and energy levels were normal during baseline perfusion. After an ischemic episode, however, cellular O2 was severely deprived in the SHR hearts compared with the normal hearts. Depressed postischemic O2 reperfusion correlated well with depressed energetic and functional recovery. The results from the current study thus demonstrate a critical relationship between reperfused O2 level and functional recovery in hypertrophic myocardium. The role of reperfused O2, however, is time dependent. During early reperfusion, factor(s) other than O2 appear to limit functional recovery. It is when the mechanical function of the heart approaches a new steady state that O2 becomes a dominant factor. Meanwhile, the finding of a normal O2 level in preischemic SHR hearts defies the notion of preexisting hypoxia as a primer of ischemic damage.

Myocardial Po2 does not limit aerobic metabolism in the postischemic heart.
Reperfused hypertrophic hearts are prone to develop reflow abnormalities, which are likely to impair O2 return to the myocardium. Yet, reflow deficit may not be the only factor determining postischemic oxygenation in the hypertrophic heart. Altered O2 demand may also contribute to hypoxia. In addition, the extent to which myocardial Po2 dictates energy and functional recovery in the reperfused ...
متن کاملQuantitative assessment of prolonged metabolic abnormalities in reperfused canine myocardium.
BACKGROUND Prolonged metabolic abnormalities have been demonstrated previously in postischemic myocardium, including relative increases in glucose uptake and abnormal fatty acid kinetics. However, quantitative metabolic information is limited, and the time course of changes in MVO2 in postischemic myocardium is unknown. To address these issues, chronically instrumented dogs were studied seriall...
متن کاملEndothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS3) knockout decreases NOS2 induction, limiting hyperoxygenation and conferring protection in the postischemic heart.
Although it has been shown that endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS)-derived nitric oxide downregulates mitochondrial oxygen consumption during early reperfusion, its effects on inducible NOS (iNOS) induction and myocardial injury during late reperfusion are unknown. Wild-type (WT) and eNOS(-/-) mice were subjected to 30 min of coronary ligation followed by reperfusion. Expression of iNOS m...
متن کاملEndothelium-derived nitric oxide regulates postischemic myocardial oxygenation and oxygen consumption by modulation of mitochondrial electron transport.
BACKGROUND Nitric oxide (NO) production is increased in postischemic myocardium, and NO can control mitochondrial oxygen consumption in vitro. Therefore, we investigated the role of endothelial NO synthase (eNOS)-derived NO on in vivo regulation of oxygen consumption in the postischemic heart. METHODS AND RESULTS Mice were subjected to 30 minutes of coronary ligation followed by 60 minutes of...
متن کاملRelation between glycolysis and calcium homeostasis in postischemic myocardium.
This study examined the hypothesis that glycolysis is required for functional recovery of the myocardium during reperfusion by facilitating restoration of calcium homeostasis. [Ca2+]i was measured in isolated perfused rabbit hearts by using the Ca2+ indicator 1,2-bis(2-amino-5-fluorophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (5F-BAPTA) and 19F nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. In nonische...
