We tested the hypothesis that acute, intravenous (i.v.) magnesium (Mg2+) supplementation would protect against myocardial stunning in an in situ swine model of regional ischemia and reperfusion and that a concomitant inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation would be elicited. An open-chest model was used, with transient occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) for 8 min. Regional contractile function was assessed by measuring wall thickening fraction with epicardial Doppler crystals. One control group (n = 6) and two treatment groups were studied: group I (n = 6) received 750 mg MgSO4 before occlusion; group II (n = 6) received 1 g MgSO4 after the occlusion. Both protocols produced significant hypermagnesemia. In group I, platelet aggregation was measured before and after Mg2+ treatment using platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and various agonists (ADP 5 and 10 mM and collagen 1 mg/ml). As compared with controls, both treatment groups experienced significantly less postischemic dysfunction, with systolic function returning more quickly to baseline. Furthermore, platelet aggregation was significantly decreased immediately after Mg2+ infusion. Inhibition of platelet aggregation induced by Mg2+ treatment occurs concomitantly with significant amelioration of postischemic myocardial dysfunction.

D015425 Myocardial Reperfusion Generally, restoration of blood supply to heart tissue which is ischemic due to decrease in normal blood supply. The decrease may result from any source including atherosclerotic obstruction, narrowing of the artery, or surgical clamping. Reperfusion can be induced to treat ischemia. Methods include chemical dissolution of an occluding thrombus, administration of vasodilator drugs, angioplasty, catheterization, and artery bypass graft surgery. However, it is thought that reperfusion can itself further damage the ischemic tissue, causing MYOCARDIAL REPERFUSION INJURY.
