The development of muscle fatigue due to exhaustive exercise is associated with impaired sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca-transport activity. This study tested the hypothesis that SR failure is a consistent feature of cardiac and skeletal muscle fatigue owing to relative functional overload regardless of the method of induction: excessive stimulation, diminished performance capacity, or excessive excitation-contraction coupling. The Ca-transport activity was determined using three unique models of muscle fatigue: chronic and rapid ventricular pacing in dogs; metabolic inhibition caused by global cardiac ischemia in swine; and the hypermetabolic syndrome of porcine malignant hyperthermia (MH). Both pacing- and ischemia-induced fatigue resulted in reduction of SR Ca-transport ATPase activity: from 275 +/- 58 to 159 +/- 57 nmol.min-1.mg-1 (mU/mg) and from 577 +/- 82 to 177 +/- 133 mU/mg, respectively. Both pacing-induced fatigue and halothane-induced MH resulted in reduction of Ca-sequestration activity of muscle homogenates from 5.95 +/- 2.4 to 3.11 +/- 0.67 nM/s at 300 nM Ca and 38.7 +/- 10.5 to 16.3 +/- 8.0 nM/s at 1500 nM Ca, respectively (all p less than 0.01). The isolated SR Ca-ATPase activity correlated with Ca-sequestration activity of myocardial homogenates (r = 0.76; p less than 0.005). Different models were used to study the relationship of Ca-transport activity with relaxation function, degree of acidosis, and ionized Ca concentration.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Changes of brain mitochondrial phospholipids during cerebral ischemia and recirculation were experimentally studied in a rat 4-vessel occlusion model, to explore the relation between changes of mitochondrial phospholipids and dysfunction of mitochondria. Respiratory functions, activities of respiratory enzymes (cytochrome c oxidase, F0F1-ATPase) were analyzed after 30 and 60 minutes of ischemia, and after 30 minutes of recirculation following each ischemic period. Activities of respiratory functions and respiratory enzymes decreased progressively during ischemia, which recovered completely after recirculation following 30 minutes of ischemia, while only partial recovery was observed after recirculation following 60 minutes of ischemia. In phospholipid analyses, contents of phospholipid classes tended to decrease time-dependently during ischemia, and compositions of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) such as arachidonic acid (20:4) and docosahexaenoic acid (22:6) were decreased preferentially. In recirculation, phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), and cardiolipin (CL) showed recovery of contents of phospholipids and compositions of PUFA after recirculation following 30 minutes of ischemia, while further decrease of contents of phospholipids and compositions of PUFA were observed after recirculation following 60 minutes of ischemia, especially in CL. On the other hand, progressive degradation of phospholipids occurred after recirculation following both 30 and 60 minutes of ischemia in phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol. Changes of major phospholipid classes such as PC, PE, and CL correlated with the changes of mitochondrial respiratory functions and activities of respiratory enzymes. In conclusion, changes of mitochondrial membrane phospholipids appear to affect the integrity of cellular energy metabolism via mitochondrial dysfunction during cerebral ischemia and recirculation.

In the present study we examined the regulation of the cardiac muscle mitochondrial ATPase both in situ and in vitro in intact and sonicated mitochondria from rabbit, pigeon, and rat. We chose to study these three species because each is representative of one of the three classes into which all species thus far studied may be placed with respect to the in situ activity of their cardiac muscle mitochondrial ATPase inhibitor and with respect to the amount of ATPase inhibitor present in their cardiac muscle mitochondria (1). Class A species (rabbit) contain a full complement of ATPase inhibitor and show a marked ATPase inhibition during ischemia. Class B species (pigeon) also contain a full complement of inhibitor but exhibit only a low level of ATPase inhibition in situ. Class C species (rat) contain only low levels of inhibitor and, like class B species, don't appear to utilize the inhibitor they possess during ischemia in situ. We found that, while hearts from all three species developed a marked cytosolic acidosis during ischemia, only rabbit exhibited a marked ATPase inhibition in situ. In in vitro experiments in which matrix pH values close to 6.2 and delta psi values close to zero were measured in intact mitochondria from all three species, matrix pH appeared to be an important factor regulating ATPase inhibition in rabbit, but it had little effect upon ATPase--inhibitor interaction in pigeon and rat despite the lack of membrane potential. However, a pH-dependent further release of ATPase inhibitor was observed in sonicated pigeon heart mitochondria only. This latter observation suggests that, while slow heart-rate heart mitochondria appear to be designed for ATPase down regulation during ischemia by inhibitor binding to the ATPase, fast heart-rate heart mitochondria appear to be designed primarily for ATPase up regulation by a further release of inhibitor from the enzyme.

Nowadays the activity of heart ectoenzymes, breaking up ATP, are determined in the undamaged tissue to eliminate the effect to the ATP of intracellular enzymes. Our aim is to study the activity of ecto-adenosine triphosphatase in the heart damaged by ischemia. It was established that the activity of ectoenzymes, breaking up ATP, may be measured in the tissue damaged by ischemia only in case when the cellular membrane becomes impermeable for the intracellular enzymes. The activity of adenosine triphosphatase is significantly reduced during the myocardial reperfusion after ischemia and appeared as one of the criteria by which we can assume the degree of the heart reperfusion damage.

Cardiac contractile activity is usually controlled by intracellular Ca2+, but it can also be modified by oxidizing agents. Incubation of guinea pig heart myofibrils with diamide (3 mM, 1 h) increased basal (no Ca2+) ATPase activity by 580% and abolished Ca2+ dependence. The effect was proportional to diamide concentration (0.01-1 mM) and duration of preincubation (up to 2 h). Dithiothreitol (5 mM, 1 h) reversed most of the basal ATPase activation and restored Ca2+ sensitivity. Other sulfhydryl reagents produced a similar effect but also produced inhibition of total ATPase. In intact cell preparations, diamide produced a slow tonic contraction, consistent with myofibril activation. In the perfused rat heart, 1 mM diamide slowly increased diastolic ventricular pressure; this increase was partially reversed by dithioerythritol. In isolated rat heart myocytes, 1 mM diamide produced a slow tonic contraction, increased contractility in response to stimulation. Cardiocytes superfused for 1 h with buffer containing EGTA to deplete Ca2+ did not contract in response to stimulation but showed a slow tonic contraction with diamide. This contraction could be slowly and only partially reversed by dithioerythritol. Response to stimulation was restored by addition of Ca2+. The results show that diamide can produce contraction in viable cells. This contraction does not require extracellular Ca2+ and is unlikely to involve intracellular Ca2+. The direct activation of myofibrillar ATPase may contribute to the increased myocardial stiffness seen in ischemia and to ischemic contracture.

Reperfusion of rabbit hearts after 15 min of global ischemia at 37 degrees C depressed developed pressure by 36% (myocardial stunning). Changes in myofilament function were investigated as causes of this depression. Kinetic analysis of the effects of stunning on myofibrillar catalyzed ATP hydrolysis showed that stunning lowered Michaelis constant (Km) slightly and left maximal enzyme reaction velocity unaltered in the stunned myofilaments. The myofilament end of the creatine kinase (CK) shuttle was also found to be unaffected in the stunned myofibrils. The Km ADP for myofibrillar CK from control and stunned hearts was 60.45 +/- 3.45 and 68.04 +/- 2.42 microM, respectively, and the CK activity at 100 microM ADP was 0.63 +/- 0.08 and 0.67 +/- 0.04 IU/mg myofibrillar protein from control and stunned hearts, a rate three times greater than the myofibrillar adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) rate and a rate sufficient to deliver ATP to the myofilaments. Myofilament Ca2+ sensitivity was assessed by measuring Ca2(+)-dependent myofibrillar Mg2(+)-ATPase activity at free [Ca2+] ranging from 10 nM to 32 microM and [Mg.ATP] of 0.8, 1.6, and 3.2 mM. The sensitivity of myofilaments to activation by Ca2+ was unaltered in the myofibrils isolated from stunned hearts. It is concluded from these analyses that the depression of pressure development observed in stunned hearts is not due to a defect in myofilament function.

The pH dependence of the Ca2(+)-transporting ATPase of bovine cardiac sarcolemma was determined in a membrane vesicle preparation. The maximal velocity (Vmax) at saturating external Ca2+ showed a sigmoidal pH dependence with maximal values in the 6.0-6.5 range, a half-maximal value at 7.2 and minimal (less than or equal to 15%) values at pH greater than or equal to 8.0. The apparent affinity for Ca2+ (1/Km) varied over 10(4)-fold for 6.0 less than or equal to pH less than or equal to 8.5, increasing with increasing pH. Plots of log(1/Km) vs. pH were biphasic. In the acid range (6.0 less than or equal to pH less than or equal to 7.2), a slope of 2.6 was observed for the calmodulin-activated form of the pump. For 7.2 less than or equal to pH less than or equal to 8.5, a slope of 0.5 was observed. At pH 7.4, the Km is approx. 48 +/- 19 nM. The Ca2+ pump of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum in the same preparation had a Km of 304 +/- 115 nM and showed a similar pH dependence except that the slope in the acid range was 1.7. When calmodulin was removed from the sarcolemmal pump, its Km was raised to approx. 1.0 microM, the slope in the acid range was reduced to 1.7 and the Vmax was markedly reduced. The results are explicable in terms of a model in which each of the two Ca2+ binding sites on the pump contains two buried COO- groups responsible for high affinity. The Km effect is explained by 2 H+ vs. 1 Ca2+ competition for occupation of each of the two cytoplasmically-oriented translocators (4 H+ vs. 2 Ca2+). The Vmax effect is explained by counter-transport of H+. The findings are considered in terms of the published amino acid sequence of the cardiac sarcolemmal pump and recent site-directed mutagenesis vs. function studies identifying the Ca2+ binding site in the skeletal sarcoplasmic reticulum pump. The kinetic data are also applied to pump behavior under conditions of ischemia and acidosis.

In the present study, isolated dog and rat hearts were perfused in the Langendorff mode with Krebs bicarbonate buffer in the absence and presence of 10(-5) M oligomycin. The perfusion protocols employed allowed tissue pH to drop during subsequent ischemic incubations essentially as it would in blood-perfused hearts. Tissue pH, ATP, lactate, and mitochondrial respiratory function were measured during the course of subsequent zero-flow ischemic incubations. The adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) activities attributable to both mitochondrial and nonmitochondrial ATPases in sonicated heart homogenates and the actomyosin ATPase in isolated cardiac myofibrils were measured in both species. Consistent with earlier results with a different model in which tissue pH was buffered during the ischemic incubations [W. Rouslin, J. L. Erickson, and R. J. Solaro. Am. J. Physiol. 250 (Heart Circ. Physiol. 19): H503-H508, 1986], the inhibition of the mitochondrial ATPase in situ by oligomycin markedly slowed both tissue ATP depletion and the loss of mitochondrial function during ischemia in the dog. However, oligomycin had only a very small and transient effect on ATP depletion and mitochondrial function in the rat. This was apparently so because of the fivefold higher rate of glycolytic ATP production as well as the nearly threefold higher total nonmitochondrial ATPase activity of ischemic rat compared with ischemic dog heart. These results suggest that although the inhibition of the mitochondrial ATPase makes a major contribution to ATP conservation in ischemic dog heart, it makes only a very small contribution in rat.

In an attempt to clarify the mechanism of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) dysfunction during the genesis of irreversible damage in the ischemic-reperfused myocardium, the changes in SR Ca2(+)-pumping ATPase (Ca2(+)-activated, Mg2(+)-dependent ATPase; Ca2(+)-ATPase) activity were studied during ischemia and subsequent reperfusion in the isolated perfused guinea pig heart preparation and correlated with the accumulation of calcium in the myocardium. Although the SR Ca2(+)-ATPase activity was not affected by ischemia of 40 min, reperfusion of the ischemic myocardium resulted in a definite time-dependent decrease in the enzyme activity. The reduction of SR Ca2(+)-ATPase activity was associated with a concomitant decrease in the enzyme concentration in the isolated SR and was in a good correlation with a substantial accumulation within the myocardium. As the results indicated the possibility that proteolytic degradation by a calcium-activated protease(s) was responsible for the reduction of enzyme activity, we examined for the possible involvement of calcium-activated neutral protease (CANP). However, SR Ca2(+)-ATPase obtained either from the normal hearts or from the hearts after 40-min ischemia was found to be quite resistant to proteolytic actions of the two forms of CANP, i.e., microCANP and mCANP partially purified from the guinea pig heart. These results suggest that a destructive process leading to the degradation of SR Ca2(+)-ATPase is activated by reperfusion, but not by ischemia per se, and that CANP is not implicated in the degradation of SR Ca2(+)-ATPase.

A normal single left coronary artery was found in a high school boy who died suddenly after Rugby football practice. He had an infarct lesion in the posterior wall where there was no perfusion because of the absence of the right coronary artery. There was no significant lesion in the anterior wall except for contraction band necrosis. Myoglobin diffusion paralleled the extent of necrosis. The case was useful in evaluating the effects of ischemia on a human subject because variations due to personality and postmortem changes were not involved. Actomyosin ATPase activity was not different among the various infarct and non-infarct regions examined except in one infarct region where it was higher.
