ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effect of interleukin-2 (IL-2) on myocardial impairment during ischemia/reperfusion or anoxia/reoxygenation.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Chemical anoxia was introduced in the isolated rat ventricular myocytes by Krebs-Henseleit (K-H) solution containing 10(-3) mol/L sodium dithionite. The video-tracking system and spectrofluorometric method were employed to verify the cell contraction and calcium homeostasis of the single myocyte. Radioimmunoassay was used to analyze the IL-2 levels in myocardium.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The levels of IL-2 in myocardium subjected to ischemia/reperfusion were elevated [(14.34+/-5.99 compared with 22.25+/-3.68)ng/g, P<0.01]. During anoxia, cell contraction and the amplitude of electrically induced calcium transient were depressed and the parameters did not return to the pre-anoxia level during reoxygenation. IL-2 at 200 U/L administered during anoxia aggravated the effect of reoxygenation on cell contraction and calcium transient. After perfusion with IL-2, the malondialdehyde content of myocardial mitochondria was elevated.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Coexistence of IL-2 during anoxia aggravates the effect of reoxygenation on the cell contraction and calcium homeostasis in the isolated rat ventricular myocytes, in which the mitochondrial lipid peroxidation induced by IL-2 is involved.</p>
