Whereas hypertonic saline-dextran (HSD, 7.5%
NaCl in 6% D70) improves cardiac contractile function after burn
trauma, the mechanisms of HSD-related cardioprotection remain unclear.
We recently showed that cardiomyocytes secrete tumor necrosis
factor-
(TNF-
), a response that was enhanced by burn trauma. This
study addressed the question: does HSD modulate cardiac
contraction/relaxation by altering cardiomyocyte TNF-
secretion?
Wistar-Furth rats (325 g) were given a burn injury over 40% of the
total body surface area and were then randomized to receive a bolus of
either isotonic saline or HSD (4 ml/kg, n = 14 rats/group). Sham burn rats were given either isotonic saline or HSD
(n = 14 rats/group) to provide appropriate controls for
the two burn groups. Hearts were isolated 24 h postburn for either
Langendorff perfusion (n = 8 hearts/group) or to
prepare cardiomyocytes (n = 6 hearts/group). Myocytes
were stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (0, 10, 25, or 50 µg for 18 h) to measure cytokine secretion. Burn trauma
increased myocyte TNF-
and interleukin-1
and -6 secretion,
exacerbated cytokine response to LPS stimulus, and impaired cardiac
contraction. HSD treatment of burns decreased cardiomyocyte cytokine
secretion, decreased responsiveness to LPS challenge with regard to
cytokine secretion, and improved ventricular function. These data
suggest that HSD mediates cardioprotection after burn trauma, in part, by downregulating cardiomyocyte secretion of inflammatory cytokines.
