Na<sup>+</sup>/H<sup>+</sup> Exchanger Inhibitor HOE642 Offers Myoprotection in Senescent Myocardium Independent of Ischemic Preconditioning Mechanisms

Abstract: Background: Inhibition of Na+/H+ exchange has been shown to provide functional protection during ischemia and reperfusion in mature heart. This study was undertaken to elucidate the effect of Na+/H+ exchange inhibitor HOE642 in the aged rabbit heart. Methods: Isolated rabbit hearts were subjected to 1 h of left descending coronary artery (LAD) ischemia and 1 h of reperfusion. To determine the effects of HOE642 on ischemia/reperfusion injury, seven aged or mature hear… Show more

“…In accordance with previous reports, 4,5,23 the addition of DMA appeared to be associated with the preservation of cell viability and plasma membrane integrity. Because it is unlikely that lethally injured myocytes would be able to retain [ 3 H]‐2‐DG, increased retention of [ 3 H]‐2‐DG in the ischaemic–reperfused DMA‐treated hearts was evidence that DMA directly or indirectly provided protection against plasma membrane injuries.…”

“…However, the mechanisms responsible for these protective effects have yet to be fully understood. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] It is well-known that anaerobic glycolysis is the primary source of energy for the ischaemic heart. Consequently, in the severely ischaemic myocardium, lactate accumulates in the tissue and the intracellular pH falls.…”

“…Middle-aged and senescent hearts have been characterized by increased cellular sodium accumulation at the end of ischemia (Tani et al 1997 and compared with young hearts. They are protected against reperfusion-induced cellular damage by either the NHE-1 inhibitor cariporide (Nakai et al 2002;Besse et al 2004;Simm et al 2008) or the Na + /Ca 2+ exchanger (NCX) inhibitor KB-R7943 (Yamamura et al 2001). This stresses the importance of ischemiainduced proton production and NHE-1/NCX axis in genesis of the ischemia/reperfusion-induced functional disturbances of the aged heart.…”

“…Some work regarding changes in SL Na þ -K þ ATPase and the mechanisms of these alterations in preconditioning has also been carried out [105]; however, the status of changes in other proteins in the SL membrane in preconditioned heart remains to be investigated. In view of the stimulation of Na þ -H þ exchange and Na þ -Ca 2þ exchange activities in the I/R hearts [288][289][290][291], several investigators have shown beneficial effects of the inhibitors of Na þ -H þ exchanger [292][293][294] and Na þ -Ca 2þ exchanger [295][296][297] on cardiac function, dysrhythmias and apoptosis. Nonetheless, little information regarding the actions of these interventions and ischemic preconditioning on subcellular alterations, as well as changes in cardiac gene expression, has appeared in the literature [298][299][300].…”
