چکیده

The contributions of aerobic and anaerobic muscle metabolism to the heat produced in porcine malignant hyperthermia were studied in seven Pietrain pigs. Oxygen consumption measurements were used to calculate the increase in muscle temperature as a result of aerobic metabolism and this was compared with the observed muscle temperature. The results show that in the initial stage of porcine malignant hyperthermia heat production is largely aerobic in origin. Terminally, aerobic metabolism can account for about half the observed temperature increase.

Heat production during anesthetic-induced malignant hyperthermia.

Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a pharmacogenetic disease which predisposes to the trigger of a life-threatening, hypermetabolic syndrome by potent inhaled anesthetics and by depolarizing skeletal muscle relaxants. Heat production in the anesthetized MH can be profound with 5-fold increases in oxygen consumption. The trigger anesthetics cause an abnormal, sustained rise in myoplasmic calcium lev...

Porcine malignant hyperthermia. I: Metabolic and physiological changes.

Porcine malignant hyperthermia was studied in seven Pietrain pigs under standardized experimental conditions. In five animals malignant hyperthermia was triggered with suxamethonium and halothane, but in two pigs suxamethonium alone was used. Characteristic metabolic and physiological changes were found and these are discussed with regard to a possible mechanism to explain the malignant nature ...

Delayed Onset Malignant Hyperthermia after Sevoflurane

Malignant hyperthermia is a hypermetabolic response to inhalation agents (such as halothane, sevoflurane, and desflurane), succinylcholine, vigorous exercise, and heat. Reactions develop more frequently in males than females (2 : 1). The classical signs of malignant hyperthermia are hyperthermia, tachycardia, tachypnea, increased carbon dioxide production, increased oxygen consumption, acidosis...

Characterization of mitochondria from pig muscle: higher activity of exo-NADH oxidase in animals suffering from malignant hyperthermia.

Mitochondria were isolated from biopsies of the biceps femoris muscle of Danish landrace pigs. Three groups of animals were compared: (1) normal pigs; (2) pigs that were homozygous with respect to the gene Hal(n)/Hal(n) coding for the porcine malignant hyperthermia syndrome; and (3) heterozygote animals. A newly developed micro-method for preparation and assaying of small quantities of intact m...
