Myocardial H2O2 production in the unanaesthetized rat Influence of fasting, myocardial load and inhibition of superoxide dismutase and monoamine oxidase

Abstract: Myocardial H2O2 production was studied by means of the in vivo administration of aminotriazole (AT), which inactivates the catalase-H2O2 complex compound I. Measurements of the residual catalase activity in male and female rats indicate that beta-oxidation of fatty acids in peroxisomes does not contribute in a substantial way to energy production in response to fasting or to an increased myocardial load, despite previous data on peroxisomes in myocardium. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) inhibition by diethyldithioc… Show more

“…This is in accordance with a previous in vivo study with rats in which MAO inhibition by phenelzine failed to decrease myocardial basal production of H 2 O 2 (Kerckaert and Roels 1986). Nevertheless, MAO inhibition prevented d-amphetamineinduced production of H 2 O 2 in the heart.…”

“…Endocardium, in contrast to other types of endothelium, is surrounded by incessantly active myocardium, a tissue with unusually rapid aerobic metabolism. It has been estimated that as much as 5% of all 02 consumption in heart mitochondria is attributable to "leakage" of electrons from the electron transport chain to reduce 02 to O2-, leading to H202 production (43), and others have documented high rates of myocardial H202 References production (44,45) . Intracellular levels of H202 in tissue with rapid aerobic metabolism have been estimated to be as high as 10-7 M (46), perilously close to the 10 -6 M we infused to cause acute heart failure in our rat heart model (Fig.…”

“…In mice, starvation increases the H 2 O 2 production by liver, likely due to increased fatty acid plasma levels (Van den Branden et al, 1984 ). However, in cardiac tissue there is no change (Kerckaert and Roels, 1986 ). Treatment with fibrates increases the rate of H 2 O 2 production in hepatocytes (Mannaerts et al, 1979 ; Foerster et al, 1981 ; Yamada et al, 1987 ; Leighton et al, 1989 ; Yoshida et al, 1990 ).…”
