Abstract:
:Perfusion of all mammalian heart muscle except hamster with Ca(2+)-free Tyrode and thereafter reperfusion with normal Tyrode causes irreversible damage, the calcium paradox. Our study aims at deciphering the role of creatine kinase, high energy phosphates and Ca(2+)influx in the genesis of myocardial injury in the rat and comparing it with the hamster. Isolated hearts from hamster and rats were perfused in the Langendorff mode at 37 degrees C for 30 min with normal Tyrode, for 15 min with Ca(2+)-free Tyrode and thereafter for 30 min of reperfusion with normal Tyrode. The 'high energy phosphate compound' levels were monitored by(31)P-NMR, creatine kinase (CK) release was measured in the perfusate.(45)Ca influx was estimated in the papillary muscle. We observed that in the rat heart: (a) high energy phosphate levels declined significantly within 1 min of Ca(2+)reperfusion; (b) a massive release of CK occurred upon Ca(2+)reperfusion; (c) there was a significant increase of Ca(2+)influx. In the hamster heart, there was preservation of high energy phosphates, CK release was prevented completely and no rise in(45)Ca influx was observed upon Ca(2+)reperfusion. These results suggest that the hamster heart has a remarkable capacity for Ca(2+)homeostasis which protects the heart from Ca(2+)overload.
