Cím:Heme oxygenase and cardiac function in ischemic/reperfused rat hearts / Csaba Csonka, Edit Varga, Peter Kovacs, Peter Ferdinandy, Ingolf E. Blasig, Zoltan Szilvassy Árpád Tosaki
Dátum:1999
Megjegyzések:AbstractWe investigated whether the expression of heme oxygenase (HO) isozymes was related to the occurrence of ventricular fibrillation (VF) induced by ischemia/reperfusion in nondiabetic and diabetic myocardium. To study the role of HO-1 and HO-2 mRNA expression in VF, isolated hearts obtained from nondiabetic and 8-week diabetic rats were subjected to 30 min of ischemia followed by 2 h of reperfusion. Expression of HO-1 and HO-2 mRNA was studied in fibrillated and nonfibrillated myocardium using Northern blotting and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The effect of zinc protoporphyrin IX (Zn-PPIX), a potent inhibitor of HO activity, on HO activity was also studied in ischemic/reperfused hearts. Upon reperfusion, an expression of HO-1 was observed in nonfibrillated myocardium. HO-1 mRNA expression was significantly reduced in hearts showed VF. Zn-PPIX (5 microM) treatment reduced HO activity from its control values of 398+/-27 (in nondiabetics) and 370+/-20 pmol bilirubin/h (in diabetics) to 69+/-14 (in nondiabetics, p<.05) and 60+/-11 pmol bilirubin/h (in diabetics, p<.05), respectively, and all hearts, upon reperfusion, showed VF in both nondiabetic and diabetic subjects. HO-2 expression was unchanged in nonfibrillated and fibrillated myocardium. Postischemic function showed no correlation with the expression of these genes. Our data show that the mechanism(s) of ischemia/reperfusion-induced VF involves the downregulation of HO-1 mRNA and a reduction in HO activity. Furthermore, the mechanism(s) of VF at molecular level involving HO isozymes does not show a significant difference between nondiabetics and diabetics.

Cím:Effect of transdermal nitroglycerin on glucose-stimulated insulin release in healthy male volunteers / P. Kovacs, Z. Szilvassy, P. Hegyi, J. Nemeth, P. Ferdinandy, Á. Tosaki
Dátum:2000
ISSN:0014-2972
Megjegyzések:Morpholinosydnonimine, a nitric oxide (NO) donor, has been reported to inhibit insulin release in isolated pancreatic islets. We studied whether transdermal application of nitroglycerin, another NO donor widely used for angina prophylaxis, influenced glucose-stimulated insulin release in healthy, young, male volunteers.METHODS AND RESULTS:Oral glucose tolerance tests [(OGTT) 75 g glucose in 200 mL of water) were performed in the presence of placebo patches or nitroglycerin-releasing 'active' patches (approx. 0.4 mg hour-1 nitroglycerin) in the same patients with a 2-week intertest interval. Venous blood samples were taken before and 15, 30, 60, 90, 120 and 180 min after the glucose load and evaluated for plasma glucose level and immunoreactive insulin responses (radioimmunoassay). Glucose-stimulated maximum increase in plasma insulin immunoreactivity were 36.3 +/- 5 and 78.8 +/- 6.1 mU mL-1 (P < 0.05) in the presence of active and placebo patches, respectively. Nevertheless, both fasting and postload blood glucose levels were the same at either patch. Active patches significantly decreased blood pressure with a marginal increase in heart rate.CONCLUSION:We conclude that inhibition of glucose-stimulated insulin release by transdermal nitroglycerin without causing hyperglycaemia may serve as a novel component of the antianginal mechanism of action of nitrates.

Cím:Non-specific caspase inhibition reduces infarct size and improves post-ischaemic recovery in isolated ischaemic/reperfused rat hearts / Peter Kovacs, Istvan Bak, Levente Szendrei, Miklos Vecsernyes, Edit Varga, Ingolf E. Blasig, Arpad Tosaki
Dátum:2001
Megjegyzések:Myocardial ischaemia and reperfusion lead to myocardial cell death due, at least in part, to apoptotic mechanisms. Although cysteinyl aspartate-specific proteinase (caspase) activation is a major event and the most-cited culprit in the development of apoptosis, its potential contribution to ischaemic myocardial cell death is largely unknown. To study the role of caspase activation, isolated rat hearts (n=6 per group) were subjected to 30 min coronary artery occlusion followed by 120 min reperfusion. A non-selective [0.1 or 0.5 microM acetyl-Tyr-Val-Ala-Asp chloromethylketone (YVAD-cmk)] or selective caspase inhibitors [0.07 or 0.2 microM acetyl-Asp-Glu-Val-Asp-cmk (Ac-DEVD-cmk, caspase-3 inhibitor); 0.07 or 0.2 microM benzoxycarbonyl-Leu-Glu-OMe-His-Asp(OMe)-fluoromethylketone (z-LEHD-fmk, caspase-9 inhibitor)] were added to the perfusate at the start of reperfusion. Non-selective caspase inhibition with 0.1 or 0.5 microM YVAD-cmk limited infarct size: (21 +/- 4%, P<0.05; 17 +/- 3%, P<0.05, respectively) compared with the ischaemic/reperfused control (32 +/- 5%). In hearts treated with 0.1 or 0.5 microM caspase II non-selective inhibitor, the fraction of terminal-deoxynucleotidyl-transferase deoxyuridine nick end labelling (TUNEL)-positive myocyte nuclei in the infarcted zone was reduced from the ischaemic/reperfused non-treated control of 11.2 +/- 2.1% to 6.2 +/- 1.6% (P<0.05) and 1.2 +/- 0.2% (P<0.05), respectively. The recovery of post-ischaemic cardiac function (coronary flow, aortic flow and left-ventricular developed pressure) improved significantly with the application of the non-selective caspase inhibitor as well. In hearts perfused with specific caspase inhibitors (caspase-3 and caspase-9) there was no significant reduction in the infarct size, no improvement in post-ischaemic cardiac function and no reduction of apoptotic cell death. We conclude that non-specific inhibition of caspases may be therapeutically beneficial in myocardial ischaemia/reperfusion-induced damage, while selective caspase inhibitors may fail to prevent such reperfusion-induced injury in our model system.

Cím:Regulation of ventricular fibrillation by heme oxygenase in ischemic/reperfused hearts / Tunde Pataki, Istvan Bak, Csaba Csonka, Peter Kovacs, Edit Varga, Ingolf E. Blasig, Arpad Tosaki
Dátum:2001
Megjegyzések:We have assessed the relationship between reperfusion-induced ventricular fibrillation (VF) and heme oxygenase (HO) mRNA expression using northern blotting, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), and enzyme activity in isolated working ischemic/reperfused rat hearts. Isolated hearts were subjected to 30 min of global ischemia followed by 120 min of reperfusion. Upon reperfusion with VF, cardiac function was registered (n = 6 in each group), and HO mRNAs and enzyme activities were measured at the end of reperfusion in hearts that showed VF or did not develop VF. The expression of HO-1 mRNA (about fourfold) was observed in ischemic/reperfused nonfibrillated myocardium in comparison with the nonischemic control hearts. In those hearts when VF was developed, the expression of HO-1 mRNA was not observed in comparison with the nonischemic control myocardium. The results measured by RT-PCR and enzyme analysis support the data obtained by northern blotting. In additional studies, we decided to approach the question from a different angle. Thus, the purpose of our work was also to study the role of HO expression and enzyme activity in electrically fibrillated hearts without the ischemic/reperfused protocol. To simulate the period of 10 min of reperfusion-induced VF, hearts were electrically fibrillated, then defibrillated, and perfused for an additional 110 min, and HO-1 mRNA expression and enzyme activities were determined. Thus, electrically induced VF resulted in about 60%, 60%, and 70% reduction in HO-1 mRNA expression, RT-PCR signal intensity, and enzyme activity, respectively, compared with the nonfibrillated ischemic/reperfused group. In conclusion, our data provide evidence that the development of reperfusion-induced VF inhibits HO-1 mRNA expression and enzyme activity in both electrically fibrillated myocardium and ischemic/reperfused fibrillated hearts. The results clearly show that HO-1 mRNA expression and enzyme activity were increased in ischemic/reperfused nonfibrillated myocardium, suggesting that interventions that are able to increase HO-1 mRNA expression and enzyme activity may prevent the development of VF.

Cím:Grape seed proanthocyanidins improved cardiac recovery during reperfusion after ischemia in isolated rat hearts / Tunde Pataki, Istvan Bak, Peter Kovacs, Debasis Bagchi, Dipak K. Das, Arpad Tosaki
Dátum:2002
ISSN:0002-9165
Megjegyzések:Background: Increasing evidence shows that red wine consumption has cardioprotective effects. These effects have been attributed to the polyphenolic compounds in grapes. Objective: We studied the effects of red grape seed proanthocyanidins on the recovery of postischemic function in isolated rat hearts. Design: Two groups of rats were fed different doses of proanthocyanidin-rich extract for 3 wk and another group was untreated and served as controls. The animals were then anesthetized and the hearts were isolated and subjected to 30 min of ischemia followed by 2 h of reperfusion. Coronary effluents were collected during the third minute of reperfusion for measurement of oxygen free radicals by using electron spin resonance spectroscopy. Results: In rats treated with 50 and 100 mg grape seed proanthocyanidins/kg, the incidence of reperfusion-induced ventricular fibrillation was reduced from its control value of 92% to 42% and 25%, respectively (P < 0.05 for both). The incidence of ventricular tachycardia showed the same pattern. In rats treated with 100 mg proanthocyanidins/kg, the recovery of coronary flow, aortic flow, and developed pressure after 60 min of reperfusion was improved by 32% ± 8%, 98% ± 8%, and 37% ± 3%, respectively (P < 0.05 for all) compared with untreated control rats. Electron spin resonance studies indicated that proanthocyanidins significantly inhibited the formation of oxygen free radicals. In rats treated with 100 mg proanthocyanidins/kg, free radical intensity was reduced by 75% ± 7% (P < 0.05) compared with the control rats. Conclusion: Grape seed proanthocyanidins have cardioprotective effects against reperfusion-induced injury via their ability to reduce or remove, directly or indirectly, free radicals in myocardium that is reperfused after ischemia.
