BACKGROUND This study compared the efficacy of ischemic preconditioning (IPC) and sodium-hydrogen exchanger (NHE)-1 inhibition to reduce infarct size (IS) induced by a 90-minute ischemic insult and examined the interaction between NHE-1 inhibition and IPC. METHODS AND RESULTS In a canine infarct model, either IPC, produced by 1 or four 5-minute coronary artery occlusions, or the specific NHE-1 inhibitor BIIB 513, 0.75 or 3.0 mg/kg, was administered 15 minutes before either a 60- or 90-minute coronary artery occlusion followed by 3 hours of reperfusion. IS was determined by TTC staining and expressed as a percentage of the area at risk (IS/AAR). Although both IPC and BIIB 513 at 0.75 mg/kg produced comparable and significant reductions in IS/AAR in the 60-minute occlusion model, insignificant reductions in IS/AAR were observed in the 90-minute occlusion model. However, BIIB 513 at 3.0 mg/kg markedly reduced IS in both models (P<0.05). Next, to examine the interaction between NHE-1 blockade and IPC, BIIB 0.75 mg/kg was administered either before IPC or during the washout phase of IPC before 90 minutes of coronary artery occlusion. Both combinations resulted in a greater-than-additive reduction in IS/AAR (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS These data demonstrate that although IPC and NHE-1 inhibition provide comparable protection against 60 minutes of myocardial ischemia, NHE-1 inhibition is more efficacious than IPC at protecting against a 90-minute ischemic insult. Furthermore, the combination of NHE-1 inhibition and IPC produces a greater-than-additive reduction in IS/AAR, suggesting either that NHE activity limits the efficacy of IPC or that different mechanisms are involved in the cardioprotective effect of IPC and NHE-1 inhibition.

Cytochrome P450s (CYP) and their arachidonic acid (AA) metabolites have important roles in regulating vascular tone, but their function and specific pathways involved in modulating myocardial ischemia–reperfusion injury have not been clearly established. Thus, we characterized the effects of several selective CYP&ohgr;-hydroxylase inhibitors and a CYP&ohgr;-hydroxylase metabolite of AA, 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), on the extent of ischemia–reperfusion injury in canine hearts. During 60 minutes of ischemia and particularly after 3 hours of reperfusion, 20-HETE was produced at high concentrations. A nonspecific CYP inhibitor, miconazole, and 2 specific CYP&ohgr;-hydroxylase inhibitors, 17-octadecanoic acid (17-ODYA) and N-methylsulfonyl-12,12-dibromododec-11-enamide (DDMS), markedly inhibited 20-HETE production during ischemia–reperfusion and produced a profound reduction in myocardial infarct size (expressed as a percent of the area at risk) (19.6±1.7% [control], 8.4±2.5% [0.96 mg/kg miconazole], 5.9±2.2% [0.28 mg/kg 17-ODYA], and 10.8±1.8% [0.40 mg/kg DDMS], P<0.05, respectively). Conversely, exogenous 20-HETE administration significantly increased infarct size (26.9±1.9%, P<0.05). Several CYP&ohgr;-hydroxylase isoforms, which are known to produce 20-HETE such as CYP4A1, CYP4A2, and CYP4F, were demonstrated to be present in canine heart tissue and their activity was markedly inhibited by incubation with 17-ODYA. These results indicate an important endogenous role for CYP&ohgr;-hydroxylases and in particular their product, 20-HETE, in exacerbating myocardial injury in canine myocardium.

Previously, we demonstrated (17) that 11,12- and 14,15-epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) produce marked reductions in myocardial infarct size. Although it is assumed that this cardioprotective effect of the EETs is due to a specific interaction with a membrane-bound receptor, no evidence has indicated that novel EET antagonists selectively block the EET actions in dogs. Our goals were to investigate the effects of 11,12- and 14,15-EET, the soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibitor, 12-(3-adamantan-1-yl-ureido)-dodecanoic acid (AUDA), and the putative selective EET antagonist, 14,15-epoxyeicosa-5(Z)-enoic acid (14,15-EEZE), on infarct size of barbital anesthetized dogs subjected to 60 min of coronary artery occlusion and 3 h of reperfusion. Furthermore, the effect of 14,15-EEZE on the cardioprotective actions of the selective mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channel opener diazoxide was investigated. Both 11,12- and 14,15-EET markedly reduced infarct size [expressed as a percentage of the area at risk (IS/AAR)] from 21.8 +/- 1.6% (vehicle) to 8.7 +/- 2.2 and 9.4 +/- 1.3%, respectively. Similarly, AUDA significantly reduced IS/AAR from 21.8 +/- 1.6 to 14.4 +/- 1.2% (low dose) and 9.4 +/- 1.8% (high dose), respectively. Interestingly, the combination of the low dose of AUDA with 14,15-EET reduced IS/AAR to 5.8 +/- 1.6% (P < 0.05), further than either drug alone. Diazoxide also reduced IS/AAR significantly (10.2 +/- 1.9%). In contrast, 14,15-EEZE had no effect on IS/AAR by itself (21.0 +/- 3.6%), but completely abolished the effect of 11,12-EET (17.8 +/- 1.4%) and 14,15-EET (19.2 +/- 2.4%) and AUDA (19.3 +/- 1.6%), but not that of diazoxide (10.4 +/- 1.4%). These results suggest that activation of the EET pathway, acting on a putative receptor, by exogenous EETs or indirectly by blocking EET metabolism, produced marked cardioprotection, and the combination of these two approaches resulted in a synergistic effect. These data also suggest that 14,15-EEZE is not blocking the mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channel as a mechanism for antagonizing the cardioprotective effects of the EETs.

Cytochrome P-450 (CYP) epoxygenases and their arachidonic acid (AA) metabolites, the epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs), have been shown to produce marked reductions in infarct size (IS) in canine myocardium either given before an ischemic insult or at reperfusion similar to that produced in ischemic preconditioning (IPC) and postconditioning (POC) protocols. However, no studies have addressed the possibility that EETs serve a beneficial role in IPC or POC. We tested the hypothesis that EETs may play a role in these two phenomena by preconditioning dog hearts with one 5-min period of total coronary occlusion followed by 10 min of reperfusion before 60 min of occlusion and 3 h of reperfusion or by postconditioning with three 30-s periods of reperfusion interspersed with three 30-s periods of occlusion. To test for a role of EETs in IPC and POC, the selective EET antagonists 14,15-epoxyeicosa-5(Z)-enoic acid (14,15-EEZE) or its derivative, 14,15-epoxyeicosa-5(Z)-enoic acid 2-[2-(3-hydroxy-propoxy)-ethoxy]-ethyl ester (14,15-EEZE-PEG), were administered 10 min before IPC, 5 min after IPC, or 5 min before POC. In a separate series, the selective EET synthesis inhibitor N-methylsulfonyl-6-(propargyloxyphenyl)hexanamide (MS-PPOH) was administered 10 min before IPC. Infarct size was determined by tetrazolium staining and coronary collateral blood flow at 30 min of occlusion and reperfusion flow at 3 h by radioactive microspheres. Both IPC and POC produced nearly equivalent reductions in IS expressed as a percentage of the area at risk (AAR) [Control 21.2 +/- 1.2%, IPC 8.3 +/- 2.2%, POC 10.1 +/- 1.8% (P < 0.001)]. 14,15-EEZE, 14,15-EEZE-PEG, and MS-PPOH markedly attenuated the cardioprotective effects of IPC and POC (14,15-EEZE and 14,15-EEZE-PEG) at doses that had no effect on IS/AAR when given alone. These results suggest a unique role for endogenous EETs in both IPC and POC.

CGX-1051 is a synthetic version of a peptide originally isolated from the venom of cone snails. In the present studies, we tested the potential cardioprotective effect of CGX-1051 in a rat and dog model of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion. CGX-1051 was administered 5 minutes before reperfusion as intravenous bolus doses of 30, 100, and 300 μg/kg. Infarct size (IS) is reported as IS/area at risk (AAR). In the rat, the vehicle control group had an IS/AAR of 59.8 ± 2.1%. Postischemic administration of CGX-1051 at doses of 30, 100, and 300 μg/kg resulted in an IS/AAR of 52.6 ± 4.2%, 34.6 ± 5.6% (P < 0.05), and 40.8 ± 5.2% (P < 0.05), respectively. In the dog, the vehicle control group had an IS/AAR of 18.8 ± 1.7%. Postischemic administration of CGX-1051 at doses of 30, 100, and 300 μg/kg resulted in an IS/AAR of 16.9 ± 2.5%, 8.4 ± 2.9% (P < 0.05) and 9.9 ± 2.4% (P < 0.05), respectively. These results demonstrate that administration of CGX-1051 at a clinically relevant time point results in a dose-dependent reduction in IS in both rats and dogs.

The effect of a nonselective COX-1/COX-2 inhibitor, naproxen, was compared with a COX-2-selective inhibitor (SC-58236) on coronary vasodilatory responses in the anesthetized dog. Coronary vasodilation was induced by direct intracoronary injection of acetylcholine (ACH) and arachidonic acid (AA) in control animals and in those treated with either naproxen (1, 3, or 10 mg/kg p.o. 24 h prior to the experiment) or SC-58236 (1, 5, or 15 mg/kg p.o. 24 h prior to the experiment). Naproxen, at 10 mg/kg, significantly attenuated the AA-induced vasodilation (prostacyclin dependent) with no effect on ACH-induced vasodilation (nitric oxide dependent). SC-58236 failed to attenuate either AA- or ACH-induced vasodilation. Ex vivo assays were utilized to establish inhibition of COX-2 (lipopolysaccharide-stimulated prostaglandin E2 formation) and COX-1 (serum thromboxane B2) in blood taken from dogs administered 1, 3, or 10 mg/kg naproxen or 15 mg/kg SC-58236. Naproxen (3 and10 mg/kg) and SC-58236 (15 mg/kg) markedly reduced the lipopolysaccharide-induced prostaglandin E2 formation, whereas SC- 58236 (15 mg/kg) had no effect on serum thromboxane B2. Naproxen significantly reduced thromboxane B2 at all three doses studied. Furthermore, naproxen (10 mg/kg p.o.) significantly inhibited the AA-induced platelet aggregation (thromboxane B2 dependent), whereas SC-58236 had no effect. Collectively, these results demonstrate that SC-58236 is selective for COX-2, while naproxen is a nonselective inhibitor. These data also suggest that vasodilatory responses to AA in the dog are primarily COX-1 dependent. Selective COX-2 inhibition does not affect either prostacyclin or nitric oxide mediated vasodilation in the canine coronary circulation.
