Abstract:
To explore the effect of long-time propofol infusion on myocardial enzymes, mitochondrial cytochrome C and ATP in rabbits.
Methods: A total of 18 New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into 3 groups: a control group, a propofol group and an intralipid group. The rabbits were continuously infused with 0.9% normal saline in the control group, 1% propofol in the propofol group, and 10% intralipid in the intralipid group, respectivey. The arterial blood was collected at 0, 8, 16 h and the end of experiment to examine creatine kinase (CK) and creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB). In the end, the myocardial mitochondria from myocardial tissues was separated by differential centrifugation, and mitochondrial cytochrome C content and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels were examined by high performance liquid chromatography.
Results: Compared with the control group, the release of cytochrome C from mitochondria were increased in the propofol group and the intralipid group (both P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between them (P>0.05). There was also no significant difference in the ATP content of the mitochondria among the 3 groups (P>0.05). The levels of CK were increased at 8, 16 and 24 h after infusion in the propofol group and the intralipid group compared with that before the infusion (all P<0.05); compared with the control group, the levels of CK were increased at 8, 16 and 24 h after infusion in the propofol group and the intralipid group (all P<0.05); compared with the intralipid group, the levels of CK were increased at 8, 16 and 24 h after infusion in the propofol group (all P>0.05); compared with the control group, the levels of CK-MB were obviously increased in the infusion of propofol for 24 h in the propofol group (P<0.05).
Conclusion: The levels of serum CK increase after the infusion of propofol and intralipid for a long time, and the levels of CK-MB also elevate in the infusion of propofol. Propofol and intralipid can increase the release of myocardial mitochondrial cytochrome C, but they don't affect the ATP production in myocardial mitochondrial.
