In an attempt to define the metabolic abnormalities of the ischemic myocardium, the changes in high energy phosphates, inorganic phosphate and intracellular pH were serially and quantitatively evaluated in ischemic porcine hearts having no collateral circulation, using arterial pressure and respiration gated in vivo 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The protocol was also modified for propranolol pretreatment (0.6 mg/kg intravenously) to define its effect on the metabolism of ischemic myocardium. In the non-treated group, creatine phosphate was rapidly depleted by 10 minutes after ischemia; by 40 minutes, ATP and intracellular pH gradually decreased to 10 +/- 11% of control and to 5.90 +/- 0.26, respectively, and inorganic phosphate rose to 303 +/- 43% of control. In the propranolol treated group, the concentrations of creatine phosphate and ATP were higher, and those of inorganic phosphate and tissue pH were similar compared with controls during 40 minutes of ischemia. This suggests that the beneficial effect of propranolol on the ischemic myocardium is due to the preservation of ATP, an essential energy resource for numerous enzymatic reactions in viable myocardium.
