Mitochondrial F1F0adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) is responsible for the majority of ATP synthesis during normoxic conditions, but under ischemic conditions it accounts for significant ATP hydrolysis. A previous study showed that preconditioning in isolated rat hearts is mediated by inhibition of this ATPase during ischemia. We tested this hypothesis in our isolated rat heart model of preconditioning. Preconditioning was accomplished by three 5-min periods of global ischemia separated by 5 min of reperfusion. This was followed by 20 min of global ischemia and 30 min of reperfusion. Preconditioning significantly enhanced reperfusion contractile function and reduced lactate dehydrogenase release but paradoxically reduced the time to onset of contracture during global ischemia. Myocardial ATP was depleted at a faster rate during the prolonged ischemia in preconditioned than in sham-treated hearts, which is consistent with the reduced time to contracture. ATP during reperfusion was repleted more rapidly in preconditioned hearts, which is consistent with their enhanced contractile function. Preconditioning significantly reduced lactate accumulation during the prolonged ischemia. We were not able to demonstrate that mitochondrial F1F0ATPase (measured in submitochondrial particles) was inhibited by preconditioning before or during the prolonged ischemia. The mitochondrial ATPase inhibitor oligomycin significantly conserved ATP during ischemia and increased the time to the onset of contracture, which is consistent with inhibition of the mitochondrial ATPase. Our results show that preconditioning in rat hearts can be independent of mitochondrial ATPase inhibition as well as ATP conservation.

A novel dual lumen aortic cannula was designed and constructed to permit independent perfusion of left and right coronary beds in isolated rat hearts without necessitating the cannulation of individual arteries. Stability of the dual-perfusion preparation was shown to be similar to that of the conventional Langendorff preparation, in terms of coronary flow, heart rate, and high-energy phosphate content. The independence of left and right perfusion beds was confirmed by unilateral infusion of disulfine blue dye and spectrophotometric detection of the dye in ventricular homogenates. Transient cessation of flow to the left coronary bed resulted in severe ventricular arrhythmias upon reperfusion, as in conventional models of regional ischemia and reperfusion. The dual-perfusion model is technically undemanding, reproducible, inexpensive, and can be used in several species. It enables studies with 1) regional low flow ischemia, 2) regional zero-flow ischemia without coronary ligation (with attendant damage to vasculature), 3) selective application of drugs or interventions to the ischemic-reperfused zone, and 4) selective application of components of ischemia and reperfusion to a site anatomically relevant to ischemic heart disease.
