| Abstract | BACKGROUND: Isoflurane activates vascular adenosine triphosphate sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channels, and may induce vasodilation. In the present study, we investigated whether hyperglycemia modifies isoflurane activation of vascular K(ATP) channel. METHODS: We used a cell-attached patch-clamp configuration to test the effects of isoflurane on K(ATP) channel activity in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) after incubation for 24 h in medium containing normal glucose (NG, 5.5 mM D-glucose), L-glucose (LG, 5.5 mM D-glucose plus 17.5 mM L-glucose), or high glucose (HG, 23 mM D-glucose). Superoxide levels in aortas were measured by the lucigenin-enhanced chemiluminescence technique. RESULTS: Isoflurane-induced open probabilities were significantly reduced in VSMCs from arteries incubated in HG (0.06 +/- 0.01) compared with NG (0.17 +/- 0.02; P < 0.05) and LG (0.15 +/- 0.02; P < 0.05). Pretreatment of VSMCs with protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors, calphostin C and PKC inhibitor 20-28, greatly reduced HG inhibition of isoflurane-induced K(ATP) channel activity. In addition, a PKC activator, PMA, mimicked the effects of HG. Superoxide release was significantly increased in arteries incubated in HG (18.3 +/- 11.5 relative light units (RLU) x s(-1) x mg(-1); P < 0.05 versus NG). Coincubated with polyethylene glycol-superoxide dismutase (250 U/mL), a cell-permeable superoxide scavenger, greatly reduced the HG-induced increase of superoxide, but failed to reduce HG inhibition of isoflurane-induced K(ATP) channel activity. CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that the metabolic stress of hyperglycemia can impair isoflurane-induced vascular K(ATP) channel activity mediated by excessive activation of PKC. This could impede the coronary vasodilation response to isoflurane, causing ischemia or hypoxia in patients with perioperative hyperglycemia. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
