Abstract:
Aim To investigate the anti-arrhythmic effect and mechanism of ?-opioid receptor during myocardial ischemia and reperfusion in rats,and to initially determine the regulation of U50488H(U50,a selective ?-opioid receptor agonist) to angiotensinⅡ(AngⅡ),endothelin(ET) and nitric oxide(NO) in rats.Methods Rats were randomly divided into 7 groups,i.e.,control group,ischemia/reperfusion group(I/R),U50488H+I/R group,PTX group(PTX,a Gi/o proteininhibitor),Glib group(glibenclamide,a K_(ATP) channel blocker),Che group(chelerythrine,a selective PKC inhibitor),and Gen group(Genistein,a Tyrosine kinase inhibitor) respectively.The arrhythmia occurrence and score in different groups were observed and counted.The contents of AngⅡ,ET and NO in plasma of rats were also examined.Results ① Compared with I/R group,the arrhythmia score of U50+I/R group was significantly decreased.The effect of pared with I/R group,the arrhythmia score of U50+I/R group was significantly decreased.The effect of glibenclamide and chelerythrine respectively,the anti-arrhythmic effects induced by U50488H in the rats during myocardial ischemia and reperfusion were significantly attenuated or even completely blocked.③ The anti-arrhythmic effects of U50488H were not significantly affected by pretreatment with genistein.④ In comparison with normal rats,the contents of AngⅡand ET in plasma of I/R group were significantly increased,but the content of NO was decreased.With the administration of U50488H,the contents of AngⅡand ET in plasma of rats in U50488H+I/R group were significantly decreased.Meantime the content of NO was increased.Conclusions ① U50488H-induced anti-arrhythmic effects in the rats with myocardial ischemia and reperfusion are mediated by ?-opioid receptor.The signaling pathway may be related with(Gi/o,) PKC,and K_(ATP) channel.② The activation of ?-opioid receptor may elicit anti-arrhythmic effect through the down-regulations of AngⅡ or ET and up-regulation of NO in plasma of rats.
