Research Abstract |
This research program focused on the mechanism for the disruption of intracellular calcium homeostasis induced by ischemia and reperfusion. Intracellular ionic calcium concentration ([Ca^<2+>]_i) was measured with fluorine-19 NMR (F-NMR) coupled with a calcium indicator, 5F-BAPTA. The results obtained in this program are as follows. 1)[Ca^<2+>]_i significantly increased at the end of ischemia and during the early phase of reperfusion when hearts were subjected into 30-min ischemia at30゚C. The increase of [Ca^<2+>]_i was attenuated by pretreatment ofCa^<2+> channel blocker, indicating that opening of Ca^<2+> channel is one of the mechanism of Ca^<2+> increase during ischemia. 2)Hearts reperfused after 15-min global ischemia at 37゚showed myocardial stunning. In contrast, hearts reperfused with high-[Na]_o. solution showed significantly better recovery. Nevertheless, reperfusion with solutions in which the additional Na was substituted either by sucrose or by choline chloride did not impro

ve functional recovery, indicating that the beneficial effects of high-[Na]_o. reperfusion are not due either to high ionic strength or to high osmolarity. These results indicate that high-[Na]_o. reperfusion protects against stunning, supporting the idea that the Na^+/Ca^+ exchange plays an important role in the mechanism of stunned myocardium. 3)Myocardial content of sugar phosphates ([SP]) and [Ca^<2+>]_i were measured to elucidate the contribution of glycolysis to intracellular Ca^<2+> homeostasis. After the depletion of glycogen, the perfusion without substrate of glycolysis showed no significant changes in end-diastolic LV pressure (EDP) and [SP]. Even after the blockage of glycolysis, omission of glucose from the perfusate increased neither [SP] nor EDP. Nevertheless, addition of glucose to perfusate consistently increased EDP with accumulation of SP. F-NMR revealed that EDP correlates significantly with [Ca^<2+>]_i. These results indicate that disruption of intracellular Ca^<2+> homeostasis is caused by the accumulation of SP, rather than the inhibition of glycolysis. Less
