Recent research has shown that repeated brief myocardial ischemia (RBMI) can increase the tolerance of myocardium to a subsequent sustained ischemia and have protective effects on myocardial cells. With the isolated rat heart Langendorff model, we investigated the effects of RBMI on myocardial morphology, systolic function, coronary flow rates (CFR), myocardial membrane phospholipid (PL) content and its marker enzyme's activity (5'-AMPase). The results showed: After ischemia-reflow, the HR, LVP and CFR in control and experimental groups had no significant difference (P > 0.05). But the PL content and specific activity of 5'-AMPase were significantly higher in the experimental group than that in control group (P < 0.01, P < 0.05). And the observations of ultrastructure suggested that the myocardium of the experimental group was preserved better than that in control group. It was also shown that RBMI had protective effects on myocardial membrane structure, and however effective had no relation to CFR.
