Research Abstract

We studied the effects of volatile anesthetics on pH activity in myocardial cells during ischemic-reperfusion injury. In this study, we examined pH activity, Ca2+ transients, and contractility in isolated rabbit ventricular myocytes. Intracellular H+ concentration (pHi), Na+ concentration ([Na+]i) and Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) were measured with the fluorescent pH indicators (BCFCE), Na+ indicators (SBFI) and Ca2+ indicators (Fluo-3), respectively. Contractility was assessed from changes in cell shortening during field stimulation. Experiments were performed at extracellular pH 7.4 in the presence of HEPES buffer. Our findings demonstrate that 1) halothane significantly decreased contractility compared with isoflurane, 2) halothane and isoflurane attenuate the magnitude in decreases in pHi during reperfusion, 3) halothane and isoflurane attenuate the magnitude in decreases in pHi during ischemic period. It is suggested that a reduction of excessive intracellular hydrogen after reperfusion caused by halothane and isoflurane may be beneficial on myocardial function following reperfusion in the intact rabbit myocardium.
