Subcellular compartmentalization of energy stores to support different myocardial processes has been exemplified by the glycolytic control of the ATP-sensitive K+ channel. Recent data suggest that the control of intracellular sodium (Nai) may also rely on glycolytically derived ATP; however, the degree of this dependence is unclear. To examine this question, isolated, perfused rat hearts were exposed to hypoxia, to selectively inhibit oxidative metabolism, or iodoacetate (IAA, 100 µmol/l), to selectively inhibit glycolysis. Nai and myocardial high-energy phosphate levels were monitored using triple-quantum-filtered (TQF) 23Na and 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy, respectively. The effects of ion exchange mechanisms (Na+/Ca2+, Na+/H+) on Nai were examined by pharmacological manipulation of these channels. Nai, as monitored by shift reagent-aided TQF 23Na spectral amplitudes, increased by ~220% relative to baseline after 45 min of perfusion with IAA, with or without rapid pacing. During hypoxia, Nai increased by ~200% during rapid pacing but did not increase in unpaced hearts or when the Na+/H+ exchange blocker ethylisopropylamiloride (EIPA, 10 µmol/l) was used. Neither EIPA nor a low-Ca2+ perfusate (50 µmol/l) could prevent the rise in Nai during perfusion with IAA. Myocardial function and high-energy phosphate stores were preserved during inhibition of glycolysis with IAA and continued oxidative metabolism. These results suggest that glycolysis is required for normal Na+ homeostasis in the perfused rat heart, possibly because of preferential fueling of Na-K-adenosinetriphosphatase by glycolytically derived ATP.
