Abstract:One proposed contributory mechanism for depressed ventricular performance after hypothermic, hyperkalemic cardioplegic arrest is a reduction in myocyte contractile function caused by alterations in intracellular calcium homeostasis. Because 2,3-butanedione monoxime decreases intracellular calcium transients, this study tested the hypothesis that 2,3-butanedione monoxime supplementation of the hyperkalemic cardioplegic solution could preserve isolated myocyte contractile function after hypothermic, hyperkalemic cardioplegic arrest. Myocytes were isolated from the left ventricles of six pigs. Magnitude and velocity of myocyte shortening were measured after 2 hours of incubation under normothermic conditions (37 degrees C, standard medium), hypothermic, hyperkalemic cardioplegic arrest (4 degrees C in Ringer's solution with 20 mEq potassium chloride and 20 mmol/L 2,3-butanedione monoxime). Because beta-adrenergic agonists are commonly employed after cardioplegic arrest, myocyte contractile function was examined in the presence of the beta-agonist isoproterenol (25 nmol/L). Hypothermic, hyperkalemic cardioplegic arrest and rewarming reduced the velocity (32%) and percentage of myocyte shortening (27%, p < 0.05). Supplementation with 2,3 butanedione monoxime normalized myocyte contractile function after hypothermic, hyperkalemic cardioplegic arrest. Although beta-adrenergic stimulation significantly increased myocyte contractile function under normothermic conditions and after hypothermic, hyperkalemic cardioplegic arrest, contractile function of myocytes exposed to beta-agonist after hypothermic, hyperkalemic cardioplegic arrest remained significantly reduced relative to the normothermic control group. Supplementation with 2,3-butanedione monoxime restored beta-adrenergic responsiveness of myocytes after hypothermic, hyperkalemic cardioplegic arrest. Thus, supplementation of a hyperkalemic cardioplegic solution with 2,3-butanedione monoxime had direct and beneficial effects on myocyte contractile function and beta-adrenergic responsiveness after cardioplegic arrest. A potential mechanism for the effects of 2,3-butanedione monoxime includes modulation of intracellular calcium transients or alterations in sensitivity to calcium. Supplementation with 2,3-butanedione monoxime may have clinical utility in improving myocardial contractile function after hypothermic, hyperkalemic cardioplegic arrest.
