| Abstract | Myocardial protection is usually studied in vitro on perfused heart preparations, but never directly on cultured cardiomyocytes. We evaluated a model of cultured newborn rat cardiomyocytes to study both the cytotoxicity and the protective effect against chemical hypoxia of three cardioplegic solutions (St Thomas' I, Bretschneider, St Thomas' II) under normothermic (37°C) and hypothermic (4°C) conditions. Cytotoxicity was evaluated in 50% and 100% concentrations of the cardioplegic solutions with incubation times from 90 to 360 min. Myocardial protection was studied in 50% cardioplegic solution with metabolic inhibitors. Immediate and late viabilities, after 24 h of recovery in the medium, were evaluated by simultaneous staining with fluorescein diacetate and propidium iodide.At 37°C, the 50% concentration of the three cardioplegic solutions did not modify cell viability. At 37°C, with 360 min of incubation, the 100% concentration of the St Thomas' I and Bretschneider solutions diminished immediate viability (mean ± SD: medium 87% ± 2%; St Thomas' I 58% ± 5%; Bretschneider 37% ± 8%; St Thomas' II 89% ± 3%) as well as late viability (medium 69% ± 2%; St Thomas' I 32% ± 3%; Bretschneider 24% ± 7%; St Thomas' II 65% ± 4%). At 4°C, immediate and late viabilities were unaffected by cardioplegic solutions.At 37°C, after 360 min incubation time, metabolic inhibitors diminished immediate viability to 29% ± 1% and late viability to zero. None of the three cardioplegic solutions used at 50% concentration prevented this effect.At 4°C, immediate viability was not significantly affected by metabolic inhibitors (73% ± 10%), but the use of Bretschneider cardioplegic solution seemed to be detrimental (53% ± 9%). On the other hand, recovery phase after pretreatment with metabolic inhibitors with or without cardioplegic solutions for 360 min significantly diminished late viability (medium 63% ± 7%; metabolic inhibitors 17% ± 8%; St Thomas' I 17% ± 6%; Bretschneider 8% ± 6%; St Thomas' II 15% ± 3%) and again cardioplegia was inefficient. In conclusion, in this in vitro model for the study of cardioplegic solutions, only pure concentrations of the St Thomas' I and Bretschneider solutions under normothermic conditions were cytotoxic. The well-known protective effects of hypothermia against ischemia and reperfusion injury were both reproduced. Therefore, and even though cardioplegia failed to have any protective effect, probably owing to a severe metabolic inhibition, this model may be useful for studying myocardial protection. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
