Cardiac outflow of amino acids and purines during myocardial ischemia and reperfusion.

چکیده
A novel application of microdialysis was studied, in which myocardial outflow of amino acids and purines was monitored by intravasal microdialysis in the myocardial venous outflow during ischemia and reperfusion. Microdialysis catheters were introduced into the great cardiac vein, pulmonary artery, and external jugular vein in 20 anesthetized pigs. The left anterior descending artery was occluded in four groups of pigs for 0, 10, 15, and 60 min. Ischemia was followed by 120 min of reperfusion. Microdialysis samples were analyzed for taurine, aspartate, glutamate, hypoxanthine, inosine, and guanosine. Myocardial infarction developed when ischemia exceeded 10 min. Taurine, aspartate, inosine, and guanosine increased early in the great cardiac vein during ischemia. We found the outflow patterns of amino acids and purines to be graded in response to different lengths of ischemia. In this study we have demonstrated a graded outflow of amino acids and purines in response to ischemia and a positive correlation between infarct size and myocardial outflow of amino acids and purines. This could be of value in a clinical setting to quantify the extent of myocardial damage.

Effect of losartan on NOX2 transcription following acute myocardial ischemia-reperfusion
Introduction: Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase-2 (Nox2) is one of the predominant sources of ROS production during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion and can be induced by angiotensin II. The evidence suggests that pharmacological blockers of renin-angiotensin system can exert direct tissue effects independent of their ability to regulate blood pressure. The mechanism...
