Abstract:
Aim To investigate whether endogenous hydrogen sulfide participated in the ischemic postconditioning against ischemia/reperfusion injury in the isolated rat hearts.Methods Isolated SD rat hearts were subjected to ischemia by stopping perfusion for 30 min followed by reperfusion for 60 min in Langendorff perfusion system,at the onset of reperfusion,4 cycles of 15 seconds reperfusion followed by 15 seconds ischemia were given for postconditioning.Intraperitoneal injection of L-propargylglycine(PAG,the inhibitor of cystanthionine-?-lysase) half an hour before operation or administration of exogenous hydrogen sulfide donor-NaHS for postconditioning was performed to observe the impact on ischemic postconditioning.The heart rate(HR),left ventricular developed pressure(LVDP),coronary arterial flow(CF)were recorded.The activity of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)in the coronary effluent fluid,and the activity of CSE and the content of H2S in the isolated rat hearts were measured with colorimetry method.The infarction sizes were measured with TTC dying method.Results In ischemic/reperfusion group,LVDP decreased,the activity of LDH in the coronary effluent fluid and the size of myocardial infarction increased(vs control,P
