The effect of 7-oxo PGI2 on function and metabolism of postischemic reperfused (30-min ischemia and 30-min reperfusion) rat hearts was studied with special regard to calcium overload as one of the main factors of the postischemic reperfusion damage to the heart. The drug (50 micrograms/kg i.p.) was applied 48 h prior to starting the experiments on isolated rat hearts (Langendorff preparation at 37 degrees C and constant perfusion pressure of 65 mm Hg). A late protective effect of 7-oxo PGI2 was manifested by an improved recovery of heart function during reperfusion and calcium overload, better preservation of myocardial ATP contents during ischemia and also after calcium overload, as well as by a normalization of the lactate content, otherwise extremely increased during ischemia. Electron microscopic data also supported the above results. The beneficial effect of pretreatment with PGI2 may be explained not only by its vasodilating action, but more by its membrane stabilizing effect with a consequently decreased sodium accumulation, potassium loss, as well as intracellular calcium overload.

D002118 Calcium A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.

D000254 Sodium-Potassium-Exchanging ATPase An enzyme that catalyzes the active transport system of sodium and potassium ions across the cell wall. Sodium and potassium ions are closely coupled with membrane ATPase which undergoes phosphorylation and dephosphorylation, thereby providing energy for transport of these ions against concentration gradients.
