We investigated the function of estrogen receptor-alpha in global myocardial ischemia and reperfusion injury in male estrogen receptor-alpha knockout (ERKO) and wild-type mice. Mouse hearts were subjected to 45 min of global ischemia followed by 180 min of reperfusion. The hearts were excised, cannulated, and maintained in a chilled (4 degrees C) cardioplegia solution until warm (37 degrees C) oxygenated Krebs-Henseleit bicarbonate buffer was perfused through the coronary arteries. ERKO hearts started beating later and had a higher incidence of ventricular fibrillation and/or tachycardia than control hearts. Coronary flow rate was significantly lower in ERKO hearts during the 90- and 120-min periods of reperfusion. Ca(2+) accumulation was significantly greater following 30, 90, 120, 150, and 180 min of reperfusion in ERKO hearts. Nitrite production was significantly less in ERKO hearts following 90, 120, and 150 min of reperfusion. Myocardial reduction of 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide was significantly lower in experimental ERKO hearts. Marked interstitial edema and contraction bands were seen in hematoxylin-eosin-stained sections of ischemia-reperfused ERKO hearts but not in control tissues. Hematoxylin-basic fuchsin-picric acid-stained sections from experimental ERKO hearts had fewer viable myocytes compared with controls. Transmission electron microscopy revealed swollen and fragmented mitochondria with amorphous and granular bodies, loss of matrix, and rupture of cristae in experimental ERKO hearts. This is the first demonstration that estrogen receptor-alpha plays a cardioprotective role in ischemia-reperfusion injury in males.
