Effect of Melatonin on Rat Heart Mitochondria in Acute Heart Failure in Aged Rats

Abstract: Excessive generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in mitochondria and the opening of the nonselective mitochondrial permeability transition pore are important factors that promote cardiac pathologies and dysfunction. The hormone melatonin (MEL) is known to improve the functional state of mitochondria via an antioxidant effect. Here, the effect of MEL administration on heart mitochondria from aged rats with acute cardiac failure caused by isoprenaline hydrochloride (ISO) was studied. A histological analysis… Show more

“…The homogenate was centrifuged at 1000 × g for 10 minutes, and the pellet was removed. The mitochondria contained in the supernatant were sedimented at 10 000 × g for 10 minutes at 4°C 23 . The protein content in mitochondria was determined using the Bradford assay 24 .…”

“…The animals of the control groups received an equal amount of olive oil as a vehicle. After two weeks, the rats of groups 3 and 4 were injected with ISO dissolved in physiological saline (85 mg/kg of body weight) twice at an interval of 24 h to induce mitochondrial disorders [27,40], and the rats of groups 1 and 2 were injected with saline. The next day after the 2nd injection of ISO or saline, RHM was isolated from the hearts of rats in each group.…”

“…Mitochondria were isolated from the whole hearts by a standard technique [27]. Each heart was chopped, freed of blood vessels, and destroyed with a glass homogenizer in a tenfold volume of a medium containing 75 mM sucrose, 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), 225 mM mannitol, 0.5 mM EDTA, 0.5 mM EGTA, and 0.1% BSA.…”
