Ventricular fibrillation in preconditioned pig hearts: role of K ATP + channels

Abstract: ATP-dependent potassium ([Formula: see text]) channels play a role in the infarct size-limiting effect of preconditioning in pigs. We previously demonstrated that preconditioning shortens monophasic action potential duration (MAPD) and accelerates the time to ventricular fibrillation (VF) during a prolonged ischemia in pigs. We sought to determine whether the mechanism of the reduced time to VF in preconditioned pigs is a consequence of[Formula: see text] channel activation. Pigs underwent 40 min of coronary o… Show more

“…Ischemic preconditioning did not affect the incidence of ischemic VF and tended to shorten the time of onset of VF in vehicle-treated pigs, consistent with prior studies in swine [42, 43]. Moreover, in preconditioned pigs neither VF incidence nor time of onset was influenced by rosiglitazone, consistent with a prior study showing no effect of glyburide on these measures [44]. …”

“…Many Vaughan Williams class I anti-arrhythmic drugs inhibit K ATP channels in cardiac muscles (32)(33)(34). However, some investigators did not find effects of K ATP channel blockers, such as glibenclamide and 5-hydroxydecanoate, on the incidence of arrhythmia after ischemic insult (35)(36)(37). These controversial observations might be due to different experimental conditions or protocols, but it cannot be excluded that the effects of glibenclamide on mitochondrial channels differ in different animal models or conditions.…”

“…Although the antiarrhythmic effects of sar-K ATP channel antagonists has been documented during ischemia, there were controversial in vivo data of the literature supporting either proarrhythmic or antiarrhythmic effects (Baczko et al, 1997;Rioufol et al, 1997;Kita et al, 1998;Wirth et al, 1999; Table 4). Different agonists and antagonists including specific and nonspecific agents were used to assess anti-and pro-arrhythmic effects of ATP-sensitive K ϩ channels.…”
