“…8 ¡ 14 Microdialysis has been used, only rarely, in cardiac surgery. Langemann et al , 15 and Habicht 16 have analysed the stage of myocardial ischaemia at cardiac arrest during cardiac surgery by means of microdialysis probes inserted into the ventricular septum. They analysed identical substances during Changes in peripheral tissue during cardiac surgery with CPB J Mand'á k et al…”

“…Supplementation of cardioplegic solutions with adenosine, or agents used to amplify adenosine receptor-mediated actions, improve myocardial functional recovery after arrest [1,2,34,35]. Still, the end-effector molecules responsible for the improved contractile recovery with adenosine are not clear.…”

“…However, these side effects are less problematic if ADA inhibitors are applied in an isolated organ rather than the whole body, e.g., in a heart to be transplanted. ADA inhibitors have been found to reduce hypoxic injury during cardiac surgery (Zhu et al 1994 ; Hudspeth et al 1994 ; Abd-Elfattah et al 2013 ).…”

“…Adenosine deaminase (ADA), by converting adenosine into inosine, plays an important, although not pivotal, role in the nucleic acid metabolism of the heart (Fredholm et al 2001 , 2011 ; Headrick et al 2011 ). Inhibition (or deficiency) of ADA increases both the intra- and extra-cellular adenosine concentrations that enables the surplus adenosine to exert its effects via both intra- and extra-cellular binding sites (Sandhu et al 1993 ; Zhu et al 1994 ; Hudspeth et al 1994 ; Manthei et al 1998 ; Peart et al 2001 , 2003 ; Willems et al 2006 ; Abd-Elfattah et al 2012 ). Consistently, the inhibition of ADA augments actions of exogenous adenosine as well (Szentmiklosi et al 1982 ; Gesztelyi et al 2003b ).…”
