Abstract

Background: This study aims to demonstrate whether levosimendan offers additive cardioprotection compared with ischemic preconditioning during moderate hypothermia. Methods: Thirty-six male Wistar rats were selected for the study. Rats' hearts were rapidly excised after application of ketamine. Aorta was cannulated and infusion of 37 °C Krebs-Henseleit Buffer (KHB) was started to provide heart stabilization for 10 minutes. Then, the isolated hearts were randomly assigned to one of six groups: group 1 (normothermia 37 °C-control), group 2 (hypothermia 28 °C-Control), group 3 (normothermia-ischemic preconditioning), group 4 (hypothermia-ischemic preconditioning), group 5 (normothermia- levosimendan), group 6 (hipothermi-levosimendan). Levosimendan was added to KHB solution (24 µg/kg for 10 minutes loading, and 0.1 µg/kg/ minute for maintenance). Data were analyzed by using Kruskal Wallis and Mann-Whitney U test, and p values of <0.05 and <0.008 were accepted significant after using Bonferroni adjustment. Results: The tissue malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in group 4 were significantly increased compared to group 6 (median range 1.85 vs. 0.70, respectively; p=0.004). Sodium, potassium adenosine triphosphatase (Na+-K+ ATPase) enzyme activity was significantly protected in group 6 compared to group 4 (303.6 vs. 209.1, respectively; p=0.004). Group 4 revealed extensive TUNEL-positive cardiomyocytes compared to group 6. Percentage of apoptotic cell staining was 37.5% and 10%, respectively (p=0.004). Electron microscopic evaluation of group 6 showed normal morphological composition characterized by regular arrangement of myofibrils and protected mitochondrial structure and sarcomer in comparison with other groups. Conclusion: Results of this study showed that separate use of levosimendan and hypothermia provided protective effects on ischemic myocardium. However, pretreatment with levosimendan provided better protection under the moderate hypothermic condition.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada levosimendanın orta dereceli hipotermi sırasında iskemik önkoşullamaya kıyasla ek kardiyak koruma sağlayıp sağlamadığı araştırıldı.Ça­lış­ma­pla­nı:­Çalışma için 36 erkek Wistar sıçan seçildi. Ketamin uygulandıktan sonra sıçan kalpleri hızlıca çıkarıldı. Aort kanüle edildi ve kalp stabilizasyonunu sağlamak için 10 dakika 37 °C Krebs-Henseleit Buffer (KHB) infüzyonu başlatıldı. Daha sonra, izole edilen kalpler randomize olarak altı gruba ayrıldı: grup 1 (normotermi 37 °C-kontrol), grup 2 (hipotermi 28 °C-kontrol), grup 3 (normotermi-iskemik önkoşullama), grup 4 (hipotermi-iskemik önkoşullama), grup 5 (normotermi-levosimendan), grup 6 (hipotermi-levosimendan). Levosimendan KHB solüsyonuna eklendi (10 dakika yükleme için 24 µg/kg, idame için 0.1 µg/kg/dakika). Veriler Kruskal Wallis ve Mann-Whitney U testi kullanılarak analiz edildi ve Bonferroni düzeltmesi kullanıldıktan sonra p<0.05 ve p<0.008 değerleri anlamlı kabul edildi.Bul gu lar: Doku malondialdehid (MDA) seviyeleri grup 6'ya kıyasla grup 4'te anlamlı olarak arttı (sırasıyla, ort. dağılım 1.85'e kıyasla 0.70; p=0.004). Sodyum, potasyum adenozin trifosfataz (Na+-K+ ATPase) enzim aktivitesi grup 4'e kıyasla grup 6'da anlamlı şekilde korundu (sırasıyla 303.6'ya kıyasla 209.1; p=0.004). Grup 4, grup 6'ya kıyasla yoğun TUNEL pozitif kardiyomiyosit gösterdi. Apoptotik hücre boyanma yüzdesi sırasıyla %37.5 ve %10 idi (p=0.004). Diğer gruplara göre, grup 6'nın elektron mikroskopik incelemesi düzenli miyofibriler ve korunmuş mitokondriyal yapı ve sarkomer ile karakterize normal morfolojik kompozisyon gösterdi.So nuç: Bu çalışmanın sonuçları, levosimendan ve hipoterminin ayrı ayrı kullanımının iskemik miyokard üzerinde koruyucu etki sağladığını göstermiştir. Öte yandan, levosimendan ile ön tedavi orta dereceli hipotermi durumunda daha iyi koruma sağlamıştır.
