Preconditioning in Cardiomyocytes Protects by Attenuating Oxidant Stress at Reperfusion

Abstract

Abstract —Cardiomyocyte death after ischemia/reperfusion correlates with oxidant stress, and antioxidants confer protection in that model. Preconditioning (PC) with hypoxia or adenosine also confers protection, leading us to hypothesize that PC protects by attenuating oxidant generation during subsequent ischemia/reperfusion. Chick cardiomyocytes were preconditioned with 10 minutes of hypoxia or adenosine (100 μmol/L), followed by 1 hour of simulated ischemia and 3 hours of reperfusion. Adenosine PC decreased cell death from 50±3% to 18±4% and enhanced the return of contractions during reperfusion, as observed previously with hypoxic PC. A transient burst of dichlorofluorescein (sensitive to H 2 O 2 ) oxidation that was significantly attenuated by PC initiated by hypoxia or adenosine was seen at reperfusion. The protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor Go-6976 and the mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K + (K ATP ) channel inhibitor 5-hydroxydecanoate each abolished protection and abrogated the PC-induced attenuation of reperfusion oxidant stress. By contrast, when given only at reperfusion, the K + channel opener pinacidil or the antioxidants 2-mercaptopropionylglycine and 1,10-phenanthroline decreased oxidant stress at reperfusion and improved survival and return of contractions. Thus, PC protection is associated with an attenuation of the oxidant burst at reperfusion, regardless of the method by which PC is triggered. Loss of PC protection associated with PKC inhibition or K ATP channel inhibitors is associated with a restoration of that oxidant stress. These results suggest a mechanism for PC protection and reveal a functional link between PKC activation and K ATP channel activation in that pathway.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
