Popis: | The loss of nucleotide pool precursors from the heart during ischemia and reperfusion may affect resynthesis of ATP and consequently mechanical recovery. Isolated working rat hearts were made globally ischemic for from 15 to 25 min, and the tissue content of adenine pool metabolites, creatine, creatine phosphate (CP), and inorganic phosphate (Pi), were measured after 20 min of reperfusion. In addition, the coronary effluent was assayed for nucleotides, nucleosides, and oxypurines. Hearts that recovered 75% or more of their preischemic hemodynamic function had significantly lower ATP and NAD but greater CP and Pi than controls. Complete failure of hearts was associated with severely depleted ATP but not CP. All hearts released 25% or more of their preischemic adenine pool during the 20-min reperfusion. This loss correlated more closely with a reduction in recovery from 100 to 75% than with complete failure. Thus extensive loss of adenine pool precursors is not critically related to the failure of heart muscle to recover function but may be an important limiting factor in determining the extent and time course of mechanical recovery. |
