“…Although this blood-perfused model offers a closer approximation to the clinical scenario than a crystalloid perfused one, care should be taken in extrapolating results from the present study to the clinical setting, as shown in a blood-perfused, parabiotic, isolated rabbit heart model (6,7,9,15). To determine the clinical feasibility of nicorandil cardioplegia, in vivo studies are clearly needed.…”

“…LV pressure (LVP) and myocardial O 2 consumption were measured simultaneously (vol-run). Cardioplegia consisted of either 30 mmol/l KCl [this concentration was determined by previous studies (9,13,15) and corresponded to that usually used for cardiac surgery in our department] (7 hearts) or nicorandil (100 mol/l; this concentration was determined from Refs. 6, 10, and 15) (6 hearts) in Tyrode solution.…”

“…Pharmacologic opening of K ATP channels provides cardioprotection and mimics ischemic preconditioning in multiple animal models (3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10) and in human myocytes (11). Paradoxically, the cell surface (sarcolemmal) K ATP channel (sK ATP ) has been implicated in myocyte swelling secondary to stress, and deletion of the sK ATP channel subunit Kir6.2 provides resistance to myocyte swelling secondary to stress (9,12).…”

“…We have previously shown the benefits of using pinacidil, a non-specific potassium adenosine triphosphate (K ATP ) channel agonist, in the preservation of cardiac function and physiology [5][6][7][8] after global ischemia. Hyperpolarized cardiac arrest using a K ATP channel opener has been shown to be beneficial in the maintenance of cardiac energy stores after prolonged ischemia and cold storage.…”
