Myocardial protection of hyperpolarized cardiac arrest induced with potassium channel opener in isolated rabbit hearts / 中华麻醉学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the myocardial protective effect of hyperpolarized arrest induced with ATP-sensitive potassium channel opener ,pinacidil in vitroMethods Twenty-four rabbit hearts were randomly divided into three groups hypothermic hyperpolarized group (LH group), normothermic hyperpolarized group ( WH group), and hyperkalemic control group (group C) The isolated rabbit hearts with a Langendorff apparatus were perfused oxygenated Krebs-Henseleit's solution (K-H) for 10 min and followed by cardioplegia The cardioplegia consisted of StThomas solution with either traditional high potassium (16mmol/L KCl, 4 ℃, group C), or pinacidil 50?mol/L (4 ℃ in LH group or 37 ℃ in WH group ) with 5mmol/L KCl The hearts were subjected to 40 min perfusional occlusion and followed by 20 min reperfusionResults Hearts were arrested quickly in LH group, and a little slowly in WH group, but rebeated quickly , which were different significantly from those in group C ; Recovery of LVP and left ventricle contracility in LH group and WH group were remarkedly faster than those in group C (P
