Q

5 reactions leading to O2 Radical Formation

A
  1. NADPH + O2 = Superoxide O2-

  3. Hydrogen peroxide + myeloperoxidase= hypochlorite HOCL
  4. Hydrogen peroxide + Catalase = O2 + H20
  5. Hydrogen peroxide + Fe++ = Hydroxyl Radical OH

Q

What protects the heart from free radicals?

A

Antioxidant system (electron donators)

20
Q

What are the three antioxidant system components?

A

Superoxide dismutase
Catalase
Glutathione reductase

21
Q

What is the 5’ nucleotidase system?

A

Converts AMP to adenosine

22
Q

When is full recovery impossible?

A

If adenosine nucleotide pool <50% full recovery

23
Q

What are the mediators of lethal reperfusion injury?

A 
Oxygen paradox
Calcium paradox
pH paradox
Inflammation
Myocardial edema
24
Q

oxygen paradox

A

too much of a good thing: oxygen-derived free radical formation (reactive oxygen species ROS)

25
Q

calcium paradox

A

large influx of calcium into the cell

26
Q

pH paradox

A

pH moves from acidic to normal- potentiates many of hte changes

27
Q

inflammation

A

neutrophil activation

28
Q

What is depleted during ischemia?

A

Tissue stores of endogenous antioxidants

  • Superoxide dismutase
  • catalase
  • glutathione
  • glutathione peroxidase
29
Q

What factors determine the amount of oxygen free radicals produced?

A

Severity of ischemic injury
actiavtion and recruitment of neutrophils to myocardium
Level of O2 in the cardioplegic solution
presence of endogenous scavengers and inhibitors

30
Q

What changes are caused my oxygen free radicals?

A

Peroxidation of lipid components of myocellular membranes (steal electrons from lipid membranes)

Impairment of vascular endothelial function; produces vasoactive and autoinflammatory autocoids

31
Q

Autocoids

A

act like local hormones, act near sites of synthesis, short acting

32
Q

What are the results of oxygen free radicals? (Know this)

A

Postischemic dysfunction
Dysrhythmias
morphologic injury
necrosis

33
Q

How do Oxygen free radicals cause injury?

A

Induce opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pore
act as neutrophil chemoattractants
mediate dysfunction of SR
contribute to intracellular calcium overload
damage cell membrane by lipid peroxidation
induce enzyme denaturation
cause direct oxidative damage to DNA

34
Q

What is the mitochondrial permeability transition pore?

A

Nonselective channel (protein)of inner mitochondrial membrane
when open increases the permeability of molecules <1500 daltons
when open oxidative phosphorylation is uncoupled (results in decrease in atp and cell death)

35
Q

When is the mitochondrial permeability transition pore closed?

A

During ischemia

36
Q

When is the mitochondrial permeability transition pore open?

A

During reperfusion; opens in response to mitochondrial calcium overload oxidative stress, resotration of physiologic pH, and ATP depletion

37
Q

How can we combat the oxygen free radical problem?

A

Drugs that inhibit their formation (anesthetic agents, antiarrythmics may eliminate hydroxyl radicals, vitamin C peroxides)

Drugs that scavenge/remove them
Antineutrophil agents (decrease ischemia reperfusion injury)
38
Q

What drugs remove oxygen free radicals?

A

Mannitol, N-acetylcysteine

39
Q

What changes are cause by myocyte calcium influx?

A

Depletion of high-energy phosphate stores;
Accumulation of mitochondria kills ability to produce ATP
Activation of catalytic enzymes
Alteration of excitation-contraction coupling of actin-myosin-tropnin

40
Q

Inability to produce ATP affects what?

A

Ability of the cell to contract

Ability of the cell to move calcium out of hte cell or back into the SR

41
Q

What does activation of catalytic enzymes do?

A

increase cellular damage

42
Q

Stone heart syndrome

A

calcium not removed after going onto the cell causing contraction sequence; can enter by multiple pathways

43
Q

What are the three types of receptor molecules that activate neutrophils?

A 
selectins (P, L, E)- inital binding
Beta2 integrins (CD11/CD18 complex)- firmer contact
Immunoglobulin superfamily (ICAM-1)- final surface adherance
44
Q

Diapedesis

A

once bound to receptor molecule, blood goes through capillaries

45
Q

What starts the activation of neutrophils?

A

P-selectin (endothelial cells) triggered by proinflammatory mediators (oxygen-derived free radicals/hydrogen peroxide) thrombin, complement components, histamine

46
Q

What causes myocardial edema?

A

Increased intracellular osmotic pressure
disruption of electrical potential across membrane
increased microvascular permeability
increased intersitial osmotic pressure
high cpg delivery pressure
hypothermia induced changes to sodium potassium pump
