Transient ischemia does not induce myocardial necrosis but may be associated with prolonged contractile dysfunction ("stunned" myocardium). It has been suggested that alteration of the excitation-contraction coupling system (sarcoplasmic reticulum) could be responsible for this phenomenon. We tested this hypothesis by characterizing sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) function in an isolated rat heart model of "stunned" myocardium (hearts reperfused after 10 min of normothermic global ischemia). At the end of the ischemic period oxalate-supported Ca-uptake was depressed either in the whole homogenate or in isolated SR (to 47% and 22% of control values, respectively). During reperfusion Ca-uptake of the whole heart homogenate recovered almost completely whereas slight but significant depression persisted in isolated SR (48 +/- 2 vs 67 +/- 4 nmol/min x mg, P less than 0.01). In the presence of ruthenium red or ryanodine, two inhibitors of SR Ca-release channels, Ca-uptake was stimulated. Both in the whole heart homogenate and in isolated SR, such stimulation was remarkably smaller after reperfusion than in control conditions (P less than 0.001) suggesting reduced conductivity state of the SR Ca-release channels. Ca-stimulated, magnesium-dependent ATPase activity was remarkably reduced during ischemia and postischemic reperfusion induced only incomplete recovery (93 +/- 18 vs 169 +/- 14 nmol ATP/min x mg protein, P less than 0.05). We conclude that complex modifications of SR function occur in the "stunned" myocardium and could contribute to the contractile impairment found in this condition.

White mice, 18-20 g, were fed purified diets containing two weight percent safflower oil plus ten weight percent menhaden, corn, or olive oil for 2 wk. Menhaden oil ingestion resulted in significantly higher levels of 22:6(n-3) and 20:5(n-3), particularly 22:6(n-3), and lower levels of 20:4(n-6) and 18:2(n-6) in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) phospholipids than did corn or olive oil ingestion. These changes in fatty acid composition resulted in a significant decrease in the value of the n-6/n-3 fatty acid ratio of cardiac SR phospholipids. The ratio was 2.8 versus 0.2 in choline phospholipids and 1.9 versus 0.2 in ethanolamine phospholipids in SR of mice fed corn or menhaden oil, respectively. This reduction in the n-6/n-3 fatty acid ratio was associated with a lower relative activity of Ca2+-Mg2+ ATPase, and a lower initial rate of calcium transport and maximum calcium uptake in SR vesicles from mice fed menhaden oil rather than olive or corn oils. The specific activity of NADPH cytochrome C reductase (EC 1.6.2.3) of cardiac SR was not affected by dietary lipids. These data indicate that modification of SR by 22:6(n-3) may change the SR bilayer structure resulting in alteration of the calcium transport properties of SR vesicles. In addition, our results suggest that reduction of calcium flux across cardiac SR following fish oil consumption may also reduce the susceptibility of myocytes to rapid changes in calcium concentrations which may occur during ischemia and reperfusion.

It is established that at the early stage of total heart ischemia in rats (5-10 min) the oligomycin-sensitive ATPase activity of mitochondria measured in heart homogenates in the medium and containing no Mg2+ decreases considerably, whereas the activity of respiratory chain, the value of respiratory control and Mg2+-ATPase activity are practically unchanged. The hypothetic trigger mechanism is suggested for Mg2+ ejection from mitochondria under conditions of respiration cessation. It is supposed to be a defence reaction of cells aimed to prevent ATP hydrolysis by mitochondria under ischemia.

During ischemia in so-called slow heart-rate hearts, there is a marked inhibition of the mitochondrial ATPase mediated by inhibitor protein binding to the enzyme (Rouslin, W., and Pullman, M. E. (1987) J. Mol. Cell. Cardiol. 19, 661-668). This ischemia-induced ATPase inhibition is triggered by a drop in mitochondrial matrix pH (Rouslin, W. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 3472-3476) which occurs as a result of the cell acidification which develops rapidly during the ischemic process. One effect of the ATPase inhibition is a marked slowing of the net rate of tissue ATP hydrolysis and, thus, a prolongation of cell viability during ischemia. In the present study, we demonstrate that matrix acidification in intact mitochondria from slow heart-rate hearts appears to be mediated by the Pi transporter. Pi/H+ symport appears to be the primary process which mediates matrix acidification and thus ATPase inhibition in intact slow heart-rate heart mitochondria made acidotic in vitro and, presumably, also in mitochondria in situ during the ischemic process. In contrast, intact mitochondria from a so-called fast heart-rate species, which exhibited only a low level of ischemia-induced ATPase inhibition in situ (Rouslin, W. (1987) Am. J. Physiol. 252, H622-H627), failed to exhibit a Pi- and pH-dependent mitochondrial ATPase inhibition mechanism in vitro. The Pi-dependent mitochondrial ATPase inhibition mechanism reported here for slow heart-rate hearts is consistent with a role for Pi as a coordinating signal promoting the conservation of cell ATP during myocardial ischemia.

The present study was designed to examine the relation between the loss of Ca2+ uptake activity and the change of protein phosphorylation in sarcoplasmic reticulum from ischemic myocardium. Ischemic (0.5, 1 and 2 h duration) and non-ischemic tissue samples were taken from the coronary-ligated porcine left ventricle and sarcoplasmic reticulum fractions were isolated. The membranes were tested for Ca2+ uptake and ATPase activities and phosphorylation of phospholamban. The in vitro 32P incorporation into phospholamban in the presence of cAMP plus the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP dependent protein kinase became markedly reduced depending on the duration of ischemia. The activities of the Ca2+ pump (Ca2+ uptake and ATPase) were also decreased. The 32P incorporation into the myofibrillar component troponin I, which is also a specific substrate for catalytic subunit, was not affected by ischemia. The reduction of the Ca2+ pump activity correlated with the reduction of 32P incorporation into phospholamban. It is postulated that the ischemia induced inactivation of the Ca2+ pump is not only a consequence of specific loss of enzyme activity, but it is also caused by altered characteristics of phospholamban.

An examination was made of the effects of ganglioside GM1 (i.m.) on the losses of membrane fatty acids (palmitic, stearic, oleic, linoleic, and arachidonic), the plasma membrane enzyme Na+, K+-ATPase, and the mitochondrial membrane enzyme Mg2+-ATPase, associated with global ischemia 24 hr after permanent unilateral occlusion of the carotid artery in Mongolian gerbils. While there was a significant loss of fatty acids in saline controls, no loss was detected in membranes from GM1-injected gerbils. Rather, we found an increase in membrane fatty acid content, indicative of altered turnover. A 38% loss of Na+, K+-ATPase and a 36% loss of mitochondrial Mg2+-ATPase observed in membranes from saline controls was reduced in membranes from GM1-injected animals to losses of 15% and 8% respectively. These effects are further described by analyses of enzyme kinetics (apparent Vmax and apparent Km). After 1 week of storage, the activities of both membrane ATPases from saline controls decreased substantially more than from GM1-injected animals, suggesting that the GM1 membranes were better "preserved." Since there was a minimal loss in protein content after 24 hr of ischemia, these results indicate that systemically injected GM1 may protect structure and function of plama membranes during the acute phases of ischemic injury.

In the present study we examined three factors affecting the reversal of the ischemia-induced inhibition of the mitochondrial ATPase described by us earlier (W. Rouslin (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 9657-9661). These factors were the pH, the MgATP concentration, and the pCa of the medium in which mitochondria were sonicated following their reenergization in vitro. It was found that the extent of ATPase reactivation, on the one hand, and the extent of inhibitor protein release, on the other, following the reenergization in vitro and subsequent sonication of intact mitochondria isolated from 20-min-ischemic canine cardiac muscle were affected differently by each of the three factors studied. While raising the pH of the medium in which the mitochondria were sonicated subsequent to reenergization from approximately 7.0 to approximately 8.2 resulted in marked parallel increases in both ATPase reactivation and inhibitor protein release, lowering the pH of the medium to approximately 6.4 resulted in a marked decrease in ATPase reactivation but also in the apparent irreversible binding and/or denaturation of a portion of the ATPase inhibitor. Increasing the MgATP concentration of the sonication medium from zero to 2.0 mM resulted in approximately a one-third decrease in ATPase reactivation. The effect upon inhibitor release was more dramatic. MgATP at 2 mM decreased inhibitor release by approximately two-thirds. The pCa of the sonication medium was varied between 9.0 and 3.5 using Ca-ethylenebis(oxyethylenenitrilo)-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) buffers. Decreasing the pCa of the medium from 9.0 to 3.5 had a paradoxical effect. It resulted in increases both in ATPase reactivation and in the amount of inhibitor bound to the particles. Such a paradoxical effect may be explained if one assumes the existence of two kinds of inhibitor-enzyme interaction sites, namely, regulatory and nonregulatory binding sites. Thus, decreasing the pCa may decrease interaction at regulatory sites while enhancing interaction at nonregulatory inhibitor binding sites.

The present study was carried out to examine the effect of potassium depletion in rat kidneys subjected to a temporary ischemic event produced by clamping of left renal artery. The postischemic kidneys of rats on a normal diet with adequate potassium intake showed an increase in H2O, Na and K excretion, with no change in inulin clearance whereas significant differences were found in potassium-deprived rats. Potassium depletion was brought about by dietary K deprivation for 10 days. K-depleted rats (serum K = 2.5 +/- 0.1 mEq/l) had a decrease in inulin clearance of the postischemic kidney from 1.01 +/- 0.10 to 0.43 +/- 0.05 ml/min (p less than 0.01), and a greater increase in fractional excretion of H2O, Na and K when compared to normal rats. The postischemic kidney from both normal and hypokalemic rats showed a decrease in Na-K-ATPase of the inner stripe of the outer medulla. These data indicate that short-term ischemia produces polyuria, increases natriuresis and kaliuresis, associated, at least in part, with a decrease in Na-K-ATPase in the inner stripe of the outer medulla (probably the thick ascending limb of Henle) and that K depletion potentiates ischemic renal failure.

Ischemic injury results in proximal tubule (PT) dysfunction and loss of surface membrane (SM) polarity. Since epithelial vectorial transport requires SM polarity, we set out to determine if correction of renal cortical PT dysfunction following ischemia was dependent on the reestablishment of SM polarity. Acute renal failure was induced using a bilateral 50-min pedicle clamp. Serum creatinine and fractional sodium excretion were maximal on day 1, remained elevated on day 3, and returned toward base line by day 8. PT cellular ultrastructure was normal by day 3. Despite rapid morphological recovery, ischemia resulted in a prolonged defect in glucose reabsorption. The delayed recovery of normal glucose handling closely paralleled the slow normalization of apical membrane lipid polarity. Na+-K+-ATPase polarity was also lost secondary to ischemia as demonstrated cytochemically and biochemically by the redistribution of Na+-K+-ATPase to the apical membrane. The time required to reestablish normal Na+-K+-ATPase polarity (8 days) paralleled the recovery of normal PT Na+ reabsorption (8 days), as assessed by fractional lithium clearances. This finding supports the hypothesis that apical Na+-K+-ATPase is in part responsible for reduced Na+ reabsorption following ischemic injury. In summary, these data suggest that functional recovery of PT glucose and Na+ reabsorption following a reversible ischemic insult requires not only morphological recovery, but also the reestablishment of surface membrane lipid and protein polarity.

Ischemia results in the marked reduction of renal proximal tubule function which is manifested by decreased Na+ and H2O reabsorption. In the present studies the possibility that altered Na+ and H2O reabsorption were due to ischemia-induced loss of surface membrane polarity was investigated. Following 15 min of renal ischemia and 2 hr of reperfusion, proximal tubule cellular ultrastructure was normal. However, abnormal redistribution of NaK-ATPase to the apical membrane domain was observed and large alterations in apical membrane lipid composition consistent with loss of surface membrane polarity were noted. These changes were associated with large decreases in Na+ (37.4 vs. 23.0%, P less than 0.01) and H2O (48.6 vs. 36.9%, P less than 0.01) reabsorption at a time when cellular morphology, apical Na+ permeability, Na+-coupled cotransport, intracellular pH and single nephron filtration rates were normal. We propose that the abnormal redistribution of NaK-ATPase to the apical membrane domain is in part responsible for reduced Na+ and H2O reabsorption following ischemic injury.
