[Bioenergetic processes in the cerebral cortex and diensephalon during hyperbaric oxygenation therapy of acute blood loss]. 1983

V N Iakovlev, and A N Leonov

It has been demonstrated in experiments on 134 cats that during acute blood loss (24 +/- 0.8 ml/kg), hyperbaric oxygen therapy (3039 hPa, 60 min) stimulates cytochrome oxidase, eliminates compensatory activation of mitochondrial creatine kinase and maintains the hyperactivity of cytoplasmic creatine kinase in the diencephalon, stabilizes the elevated AMP content at the level of blood loss compensation stage, prevents the fall in pO2 and in the ATP level as well as that in the energy charge and creatine phosphate content in the sensomotor cortex and subcortex, that is typical for the decompensation stage. Besides, hyperbaric oxygen therapy also averts the development of the terminal state that supervenes in the majority of untreated animals.

D010725	Phosphocreatine	An endogenous substance found mainly in skeletal muscle of vertebrates. It has been tried in the treatment of cardiac disorders and has been added to cardioplegic solutions.

D001815	Bloodletting	Puncture of a vein to draw blood for therapeutic purposes. Bloodletting therapy has been used in Talmudic and Indian medicine since the medieval time, and was still practiced widely in the 18th and 19th centuries. Its modern counterpart is PHLEBOTOMY.
D002415	Cats	The domestic cat, Felis catus, of the carnivore family FELIDAE, comprising over 30 different breeds. The domestic cat is descended primarily from the wild cat of Africa and extreme southwestern Asia. Though probably present in towns in Palestine as long ago as 7000 years, actual domestication occurred in Egypt about 4000 years ago.

D003576	Electron Transport Complex IV	A multisubunit enzyme complex containing CYTOCHROME A GROUP; CYTOCHROME A3; two copper atoms; and 13 different protein subunits. It is the terminal oxidase complex of the RESPIRATORY CHAIN and collects electrons that are transferred from the reduced CYTOCHROME C GROUP and donates them to molecular OXYGEN, which is then reduced to water. The redox reaction is simultaneously coupled to the transport of PROTONS across the inner mitochondrial membrane.

D006931	Hyperbaric Oxygenation	The therapeutic intermittent administration of oxygen in a chamber at greater than sea-level atmospheric pressures (three atmospheres). It is considered effective treatment for air and gas embolisms, smoke inhalation, acute carbon monoxide poisoning, caisson disease, clostridial gangrene, etc. (From Segen, Dictionary of Modern Medicine, 1992). The list of treatment modalities includes stroke.
