Abstract:
:Studies using chemically-induced models of diabetes have shown the diabetic myocardium to exhibit abnormalities in cellular ion transport, which may affect susceptibility to reperfusion-induced arrhythmias. We studied the incidence of reperfusion-induced ventricular tachycardia (VT) and fibrillation (VF) in isolated hearts from rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes and from age-matched and weight-matched control rats (n = 12 per group). Following 5 min of regional ischaemia, reperfusion resulted in a similarly low incidence of arrhythmias in all three groups. Following 10 min of regional ischaemia, the incidence of VT was 92, 100 and 92%, and the incidence of VF was 75, 92 and 92% in diabetic, age-matched control and weight-matched control groups, respectively (NS). However, among those hearts which exhibited VF, the incidence of sustained (greater than or equal to 120 s) VF was 73 and 55% in age-matched and weight-matched control groups, respectively, and 0% in the diabetic group (P less than 0.05 vs both controls). The mean duration of VF in the diabetic group was reduced from 201 +/- 33 and 171 +/- 36 s in age-matched and weight-matched control groups, respectively, to 9 +/- 3 s (P less than 0.05). Thus, streptozotocin-induced diabetes in the rat does not result in an increased susceptibility to reperfusion-induced arrhythmias. To the contrary, hearts from diabetic rats are less susceptible to potentially lethal arrhythmias during reperfusion. Likely contributory factors to this phenomenon include (i) increased myocardial content of free radical scavenging enzymes, (ii) prolonged action potential duration, and (iii) reduced activity of sarcolemmal Na+/H+ and Na+/Ca2+ exchange processes, all of which have previously been reported in similar models of diabetes.
