Data on the influences of diabetes mellitus on the severity of ischemic damage to the myocardium are contradictory. We report here experiments using a model based on in vivo myocardial infarcts resulting from coronary occlusion to study the resistance of the myocardium in rats with alloxan-induced insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus to prolonged ischemia, along with studies of the infarct-limiting efficacy of ischemic preconditioning. The results showed that after diabetes mellitus for six weeks, the relative size of infarcts was significantly less than in controls (39.8 +/- 8.8 and 62.3 +/- 6.6% of the size of the anatomical risk zone respectively, p < 0.01). In addition, animals with diabetes mellitus developed ischemic ventricular tachyarrhythmia significantly less often than controls. A single episode of ischemic preconditioning in animals with diabetes mellitus had a less marked infarct-limiting effect than the same procedure in controls. Thus, these data support the existence of an endogenous cardioprotective phenotype (metabolic preconditioning) in experimental diabetes. On the other hand, the efficacy of ischemic preconditioning was sharply decreased in diabetes.

D003922 Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1 A subtype of DIABETES MELLITUS that is characterized by INSULIN deficiency. It is manifested by the sudden onset of severe HYPERGLYCEMIA, rapid progression to DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS, and DEATH unless treated with insulin. The disease may occur at any age, but is most common in childhood or adolescence.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D017180 Tachycardia, Ventricular An abnormally rapid ventricular rhythm usually in excess of 150 beats per minute. It is generated within the ventricle below the BUNDLE OF HIS, either as autonomic impulse formation or reentrant impulse conduction. Depending on the etiology, onset of ventricular tachycardia can be paroxysmal (sudden) or nonparoxysmal, its wide QRS complexes can be uniform or polymorphic, and the ventricular beating may be independent of the atrial beating (AV dissociation).

D017202 Myocardial Ischemia A disorder of cardiac function caused by insufficient blood flow to the muscle tissue of the heart. The decreased blood flow may be due to narrowing of the coronary arteries (CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE), to obstruction by a thrombus (CORONARY THROMBOSIS), or less commonly, to diffuse narrowing of arterioles and other small vessels within the heart. Severe interruption of the blood supply to the myocardial tissue may result in necrosis of cardiac muscle (MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION).
