We have reported that cardiac preconditioning against ischemia-reperfusion (IR) can be induced by transient ischemia (TI) and alpha 1-adrenoreceptor stimulation, both mediated by protein kinase C (PKC) (Mitchell, M., X. Meng, C. Parker, E. Brew, A. Harken, and A. Banerjee. Circ. Res. 76: 73-81, 1995). Our study objective was to explore the mechanism of endogenous preconditioning and address the role of PKC activation in bradykinin-mediated cardiac functional protection. Isolated rat heart was used to assess the effects of exogenous bradykinin, TI, selective B2-receptor blocker, and PKC antagonism on cardiac functional recovery after a global IR injury. Final recovery of developed pressure was improved in hearts treated with bradykinin and TI compared with controls. Bradykinin- and TI-mediated preconditioning was eliminated with coinfusion of the B2-receptor antagonist. Further evaluation of bradykinin-mediated preconditioning revealed that PKC blockade also eliminated functional protection. Immunofluorescent stains of bradykinin-treated hearts demonstrated translocation and activation of specific PKC isoforms in the preconditioned heart. We conclude that TI-mediated preconditioning involves intrinsic cardiac bradykinin receptor stimulation. Bradykinin, through the B2 receptor, initiates a series of intracellular events culminating in the activation of PKC.
