Abstract

In Brief BACKGROUND: Mitochondrial (m) adenosine triphosphate sensitive potassium (KATP) channel opening has been reported to trigger and/or mediate cardioprotection by volatile anesthetics. However, the effects of volatile anesthetics on mitochondrial function are not well understood. Prevention of mitochondrial matrix volume (MMV) contraction during ischemia may contribute to cardioprotection against ischemia/reperfusion injury. We investigated whether sevoflurane increases MMV and if this increase is mediated by mKATP channel opening. METHODS: Mitochondria from fresh guinea pig hearts were isolated and diluted in buffer that included oligomycin and ATP to inhibit ATP synthesis. Changes in MMV by diazoxide, a known mKATP channel opener, and by different sevoflurane concentrations, were measured by light absorption at 520 nm in the absence or presence of the mKATP channel blocker, 5-hydroxydecanoate. RESULTS: Compared with control, 30–300 μM sevoflurane (approximately 0.2–2.1 vol %) increased MMV by 30%–55%, which was similar to the effect of diazoxide. These increases were blocked by 5-hydroxydecanoate. Higher sevoflurane concentration (1000 μM; 7.1 vol %), however, had no effect on MMV. CONCLUSIONS: In clinically relevant concentrations, sevoflurane increases MMV via mKATP channel opening. Preservation of mitochondrial integrity may contribute to the cardioprotective effects of sevoflurane against ischemia/reperfusion injury. Impaired mitochondrial function at supraclinical anesthetic concentrations may explain the observed biphasic response. These findings add to our understanding of the intracellular mechanisms of volatile anesthetics as cardioprotective drugs. IMPLICATIONS: Maintenance of mitochondrial matrix volume due to potassium influx has been implicated in cardioprotection via KATP channel opening. Here, we show that sevoflurane increases mitochondrial matrix volume by opening KATP channels. These findings add to our understanding of the intracellular mechanisms of volatile anesthetics as cardioprotective drugs.

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.
