| Popis: | Background: The ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channel has been shown to be important in the ischemic preconditioning (IPC) response. Recently, the mitochondrial rather than the sarcolemmal KATP channel has been focused on due to its energy-modulating property. Hence, this study was undertaken to elucidate the role of the mitochondrial KATP channel in IPC by modulating the mitochondrial KATP channel in isolated perfused rabbit hearts. Methods: Seven hearts served as a control with no interventions. Seven hearts underwent IPC consisting of two 5-min cycles of global ischemia followed by 5 min of reperfusion. Seven hearts received the selective mitochondrial KATP channel blocker 5-dehydroxydecanoate (5-HD, 100 µM) for 5 min before IPC, and 7 hearts received the selective mitochondrial KATP channel opener diazoxide (50 µM) for 5 min. Then, all hearts were subjected to 1 h of left anterior descending coronary artery ischemia and 1 h of reperfusion. Left ventricular pressures, monophasic action potentials and coronary flow were measured throughout the experiment and infarct size was detected at the end of experiment. Results: (1) The mitochondria-selective KATP channel opener diazoxide reduced infarct size as compared to control (p < 0.05); (2) IPC reduced infarct size and preserved postischemic diastolic function as compared to control (p < 0.05), and (3) the mitochondria-selective KATP channel blocker 5-HD reversed these effects. Conclusion: The mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channel may be a potential site of cardioprotection. |
