Hypothermia is
known to protect myocardium during ischemia, but its role in
induction of a protective stress response before ischemia has
not been evaluated. As cold incites stress responses in other tissues,
including heat shock protein induction and signaling mitochondrial
biogenesis, we postulated that hypothermia in perfused hearts would produce similar phenomena while reducing injury during subsequent ischemia. Studies were performed in isolated
perfused rabbit hearts (n = 77): a
control group (C) and a hypothermic group (H) subjected to decreasing
infusate temperature from 37 to 31°C over 20 min. Subsequent
ischemia during cardioplegic arrest at 34°C for 120 min was
followed by reperfusion. At 15 min of reperfusion, recovery of left
ventricular developed pressure (LVDP), maximum first
derivative of left ventricular pressure (LV
dP/dtmax), LV
dP/dtmax,
and the product of heart rate and LVDP was significantly increased in H (P < 0.01) compared with C hearts. Ischemic contracture started later in H
(97.5 ± 3.6 min) than in C (67.3 ± 3.3 min) hearts. Myocardial
ATP preservation and repletion during ischemia and reperfusion
were higher in H than in C hearts. mRNA levels of the nuclear-encoded
mitochondrial proteins adenine nucleotide translocase isoform 1 (ANT1) and
-F1-adenosinetriphosphatase (
-F1-ATPase) normalized to 28S
RNA decreased in C hearts but were preserved in H hearts after
reperfusion. Inducible heat shock protein (HSP70-1) mRNA was
elevated nearly 4-fold after ischemia in C hearts and 12-fold
in H hearts. These data indicate that hypothermia preserves myocardial
function and ATP stores during subsequent ischemia and
reperfusion. Signaling for mitochondrial biogenesis indexed by
ANT1 and
-F1-ATPase mRNA levels is also preserved during a marked increase in HSP70-1 mRNA.
