Cardiac transplant outcomes can be compromised by the effects of global ischemia and associated reperfusion injury. In attempts to alleviate these phenomena, various pharmaceutical agents can be administered. Previous reports have shown that adenosine triphosphate (ATP) may act as either a postconditioning (PoC) or supplementary (Sup) therapy with cardiosupportive benefits. To further evaluate ATP’s relative effectiveness, we used an isolated swine heart four-chamber working model to monitor both hemodynamic and metabolic responses. We employed two strategies of ATP administration: (1) a postconditional (PoC) bolus just prior to reanimation, and (2) regular dosing throughout the assessment period (Sup). Ex vivo swine hearts in the Sup group elicited significantly higher left ventricular function during the 2 h monitoring period than controls. In contrast, PoC administration appeared to induce depressed cardiac function. The effects of ATP on cardiac function can have varied effects, dependent on when it is administered. IMPACT STATEMENT: We employed an isolated swine heart four-chamber working model to investigate two potential strategies for adenosine triphosphate (ATP) administration as an ex vivo therapy: (1) application of a single bolus dose during reperfusion (postconditioning or PoC), and (2) repeated bolus dosing throughout the experiment (supplementary or Sup). Ex vivo swine hearts in the Sup group elicited significantly higher left ventricular function during the 2 h experimental monitoring period. In contrast, ATP administration in the PoC group appeared to induce a degree of depressed hemodynamic function. These data suggest varied functional roles of ATP administration relative to their use in ex vivo perfusion strategies. We consider that both treatment strategies, if appropriately administered and with further investigation of dosing paradigms, may eventually elicit value in various clinical scenarios, including heart transplantation and ex vivo heart perfusion to assess potential organs for transplantation and potentially increase the pool of viable donor hearts. |
