Contractile dysfunction and abnormal Ca2+ modulation during postischemic reperfusion in rat heart

A. Meissner and J. P. Morgan
Charles A. Dana Research Institute, Boston, Massachusetts.

Isolated adult rat hearts in an isovolumic nonworking Langendorff preparation were loaded with the Ca2+ indicator aequorin to investigate the effects of ischemic reperfusion on free intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) homeostasis and left ventricular (LV) contractile function. In three groups (each n = 8) that underwent 10, 20, and 30 min of ischemia, recovery of developed pressure amounted to, respectively, 63% [77 +/- 3 (SE) mmHg], 48% (56 +/- 4 mmHg), and 34% (43 +/- 4 mmHg) of preischemic control (122 +/- 5 mmHg) after 60 min of reperfusion. Diastolic pressure remained elevated at 40 +/- 4, 55 +/- 3, and 65 +/- 6 mmHg, respectively (preischemic control, 12 mmHg). During early reperfusion (0-20 min), the light transient demonstrated a prolonged time to 90% decline from peak light (t90L), which was paralleled by a delayed relaxation on the LV pressure tracing in the 10- and 20-min ischemia groups. After 60 min of reperfusion, the prolongation of t90L persisted in all groups (10-min ischemia, 89 +/- 2 ms; 20 min, 95 +/- 3 ms; 30 min, 96 +/- 2 ms; control, 82 +/- 2 ms; P < 0.05). In contrast, the LV pressure tracing was abbreviated beyond the preischemic control, indicating altered myofibrillar Ca2+ responsiveness. Diastolic [Ca2+]i was elevated after 60 min of reperfusion (10-min ischemia, 0.40 +/- 0.06 microM; 20 min, 0.48 +/- 0.04 microM; 30 min, 0.51 +/- 0.06 microM; control, 0.32 +/- 0.01 microM) and had a significant positive correlation with LV diastolic pressure (r = 0.79; P < 0.001). A positive correlation was also found for the amplitude of the Ca2+ transient and LV developed pressure (r = 0.53; P < 0.05). These findings suggest that postischemic contractile dysfunction is related to altered Ca2+ modulation with impaired [Ca2+]i homeostasis following moderate to severe reperfusion injury in the rat.
