Abstract:
:We studied the presence of collagen degrading enzymes (matrix metalloproteinases, MMPs) in porcine myocardium following ischemia and late reperfusion. In nine pigs, left anterior descending coronary artery was occluded for 6 h followed by reperfusion for 3 h. Six pigs without coronary occlusion served as controls. After the reperfusion period, transmural biopsies from the anterior (ischemic zone) and posterior wall (non-ischemic myocardium) in the left ventricle were obtained and extracted. Heparin-Sepharose isolated components in extracts were analysed for collagenase (triple-helical collagen degradation) and gelatinase activity (zymography). Immunohistochemistry using anti-human (MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-9, and fibronectin) antibodies was performed on additional biopsies. Collagenase (MMP-1) and gelatinases (MMP-2, MMP-9) could be demonstrated in the extracts of non-ischemic myocardium from ischemic/reperfused as well as control pigs and MMP-1 and MMP-9 activity was found to be increased in ischemic/reperfused myocardium compared with non-ischemic myocardium. In ischemic/reperfused myocardium from live pigs investigated, myocyte necrosis could be confirmed by fibronectin immunoreaction in myocytes and MMP-1 and MMP-9 immunoreactions were increased. MMP-9 was present in cells likely to be infiltrating leukocytes in a patchy distribution throughout the ischemic myocardium. Quite coincident with MMP-9 positive cells, MMP-1 immunoreaction appeared in necrotic myocytes, in addition to reactions observed in vessel walls, endo- and epicardium, and extracellular matrix in non-ischemic myocardium. Thus, the results showed increased amounts of collagenase (MMP-1) and gelatinase (MMP-9) in ischemic/ reperfused myocardium, indicating the appearance of increased amounts of collagen degrading enzymes very early following ischemia and late reperfusion.
