    Background: Increased activated Akt and eNOS expression coincide with this persistent cardioprotection. Emergent coronary reperfusion therapies are rarely carried out before considerable myocardial injury has occurred. Moreover, reperfusion after prolonged ischemia produces paradoxical ischemia-reperfusion injury, attenuating the efficacy of reperfusion therapies. This has provided impetus for identifying chronic therapies to protect against ischemia-reperfusion injury in those at risk. We previously found that regular dipyridamole therapy produces a chronic preconditioning-like effect mediated through adenosine A1 receptors. Methods: To determine how long this chronic preconditioning effect of dipyridamole remains present after discontinuing therapy, guinea pigs received 4 mg/kg/day in their water for 6 weeks. Ischemia-reperfusion was performed at 0, 2, 3, and 4 days after dipyridamole discontinuation (0 day, 2 days, 3 days and 4 days; n = 8 per group). Left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP), end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP), coronary flow (CF), infarct size, and western blot analyses for Akt and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) were studied. Results: After ischemia-reperfusion, 0 day, 2 days and 3 days, but not 4 days, had significantly higher LVDP and lower LVEDP compared to control. Myocardial infarct size was significantly reduced at 0 day, 2 days and 3 days, but not 4 days, compared to control. Western blot analyses demonstrated upregulation of phospho-Akt and phospho-eNOS expression at 0 day, 2 days, and 3 days, but not 4 days. Conclusions: A chronic preconditioning-like cardioprotection by regular dipyridamole treatment persists for 3 days after discontinuing therapy. Increased activated Akt and eNOS expression may play a role in this persistent cardioprotection. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Sevoflurane increases reactive oxygen species (ROS), which mediate cardioprotection against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. Emerging evidence suggests that autophagy is involved in cardioprotection. We examined whether reactive oxygen species mediate sevoflurane preconditioning through autophagy. Isolated guinea pigs hearts were subjected to 30 min ischemia followed by 120 min reperfusion (control). Anesthetic preconditioning was elicited with 2 % sevoflurane for 10 min before ischemia (SEVO). The ROS-scavenger, N-(2-mercaptopropionyl) glycine (MPG, 1 mmol/l), was administered starting 30 min before ischemia to sevoflurane-treated (SEVO + MPG) or non-sevoflurane-treated (MPG) hearts. Infarct size was determined by triphenyltetrazolium chloride stain. Tissue samples were obtained after reperfusion to determine autophagy-related protein (microtubule-associated protein light chain I and II: LC3-I, -II) and 5' AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) expression using Western blot analysis. Electron microscopy was used to detect autophagosomes. Infarct size was significantly reduced and there were more abundant autophagosomes in SEVO compared with control. Western blot analysis revealed that the ratio of LC3-II/I and phosphorylation of AMPK were significantly increased in SEVO. These effects were abolished by MPG. Sevoflurane induces cardioprotection through ROS-mediated upregulation of autophagy.

    Sevoflurane preconditioning against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury is lost if the ischemic insult is too long. Emerging evidence suggests that induction of autophagy may also confer cardioprotection against ischemia-reperfusion injury. We examined whether induction of autophagy prolongs sevoflurane preconditioning protection during a longer ischemic insult. Isolated guinea pigs hearts were subjected to 30 or 45 mm ischemia, followed by 120 min reperfusion (control). Anesthetic preconditioning was elicited with 2% sevoflurane for 10 min prior to ischemia (SEVO-30, SEVO-45). Chloramphenicol (autophagy upregulator, 300 mu M) was administered starting 20 min before ischemia and throughout reperfusion in SEVO-45 (SEVO-45 + CAP). To inhibit autophagy, 3-methyladenine (10 mu M) was administered during sevoflurane administration in SEVO-45 + CAR Infarct size was determined by triphenyltetrazolium chloride stain. Tissue samples were obtained before ischemia to determine autophagy-related protein (microtubule-associated protein light chain I and II: LC3-I, II), Ala and glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta (GSK3 beta) expression using Western blot analysis. The effect of autophagy on calcium-induced mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) opening in isolated calcein-loaded mitochondria was assessed. Electron microscopy was used to detect autophagosomes. Infarct size was significantly reduced in SEVO-30, but not in SEVO-45. Chloramphenicol restored sevoflurane preconditioning lost by 45 min ischemia. There were more abundant autophagozomes and LC3-II expression was significantly increased in SEVO-45 + CAP. Induction of autophagy before ischemia enhanced GSK3 beta phosphorylation and inhibition of calcium-induced MPTP opening. These effects were abolished by 3-methyladenine. Pre-ischemic induction of autophagy restores sevoflurane preconditioning lost by longer ischemic insult. This effect is associated with enhanced inhibition of MPTP by autophagy.
