Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship of the activation of nuclear factor kappa B(NF-kB) with myocardial neutrophil infiltration and injury in human open heart surgery,and to observe the inhibiting effect on the activation of NF-kB and protecting effect on myocardium of the coenzyme Q10,a scavenger of oxygen free radicals.Methods Forty-seven adult patients undergoing open heart surgery were randomly divided into two groups,the control and the treatment.CoenzymeQ10 tablets were given to the treatment group 5 days before operation.Biopsy of right atrium for myocardial pathology,activated NF-kB detection and ultrastructure observation were done prior to cardiopulmonary bypass,45 minutes of ischemia and 45 minutes of reperfusion.The dynamic indexes,vasomotor drug dosage,and outcomes were observed postoperatively.Results Upon 45 minutes of ischemia and 45 minutes of reperfusion,in control group there were neutrophil accumulation and adhesion of vascular endothelium,ultrastructural damages,and positive expression of NF-kB both in nuclei and cytoplasm,in myocardium.In treatment group,there were only mild neutrophil infiltration and ultrastructural damages,and weak positive expression of NF-kB both in nuclei and cytoplasm.However,the dynamic indexes,vasomotor drug dosage,and outcomes of two groups were not significantly different.Conclusion NF-kB plays an important role in pathophysiological process of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion in open heart surgery.CoenzymeQ10 has obvious inhibiting effect on activation of NF-kB and protecting effect on myocardium.
