Abstract:
Objective To investigate the changes of myocardial mitochondrial permeability transition pore(PTP) and its mechanism in the early stage after severe burns. Methods An experimental model of 30% TBSA full thickness skin scalding was established in rats. All rats were injected with deoxyglucose(DOG) before sacrifice. Myocardial mitochondrial DOG and cytochrome c content, Ca 2+ concentration([Ca 2+ ] m) and MDA content were determined. Results ① There were no obvious changes of mitochondrial DOG and cytochrome c content at 1 h after burns, but mitochondrial DOG increased evidently at 3, 6, 12 and 24 h after burns. Meanwhile, cytochrome c content was significantly lower than that of the control, being 68.8%, 50.0%, 77.1% and 72.9% of that in the control, respectively. ② [Ca 2+ ] m and MDA content were significantly higher than those of the control at 3, 6, 12 and 24 h after burns. ③ Mitochondrial DOG content was positively correlated with [Ca 2+ ] m and MDA content, respectively, after burns. Conclusion There is no obvious change in myocardial mitochondrial permeability transition pore, but PTP opening increases markedly at 3, 6, 12 and 24 h after burns. Mitochondrial Ca 2+ overloading and increase in free radicals may be the cause leading to PTP opening.
