Popis: | Experimental studies have demonstrated that insulin elicits cardioprotection in coronary occlusion-reperfusion models. We studied the effects of intracoronary insulin on regional cardiac function in a porcine model with reperfusion after a critical coronary artery stenosis.In 20 anaesthetized pigs with an extracorporeal shunt from the brachiocephalic to the left anterior descending coronary artery, a fixed stenosis was applied, obtaining 50% reduction of shunt flow for 60 min. Intracoronary insulin 1 1U [DOSAGE ERROR CORRECTED] or 0.9% saline was infused for 15 min, starting 5 min prior to initiation of 180 min of reperfusion. Microsphere injections confirmed ischaemia and reperfusion. Epicardial echocardiographic multilayer radial tissue Doppler strain and strain rate and one-layer speckle-tracking strain evaluated myocardial function. Apoptosis was evaluated by cleaved caspase-3 activity. Area at risk and infarct size were determined with Evans Blue and triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining.In both groups, the area at risk constituted approximately 26% of the left ventricular mass. Minor areas of infarction were predominantly seen subendocardially, where tissue blood flow rate was severely reduced during stenosis. After 180 min of reperfusion, recovery of speckle-tracking circumferential strain averaged 57.5 ± 11.4% of baseline values in insulin treated animals compared to 22.3 ± 8.7% in controls (p = 0.025). Multilayer radial strain and strain rate did not differ between groups. Cleaved caspase-3 activity was most prominent in the subepicardial layer in the saline-treated group.Intracoronary insulin at the onset of reperfusion alleviated regional myocardial dysfunction in acute ischaemia-reperfusion and was associated with a reduction of apoptosis. |
