In the working rat heart we investigated heart function (aortic and coronary flow) during a normoxic, a hypoxic, and a reoxygenation phase after hypoxia. A depressed heart function was obtained by limiting oxygen supply and reducing left ventricular filling pressure (preload). After hypoxic perfusion for about 90 min, reoxygenation resulted in a 50% decrease of aortic flow. Lactate production and release increased immediately after oxygen deprivation and reached a maximum after about 35 min of hypoxia. Following reoxygenation, lactate release decreased. Lactate dehydrogenase became significant after reoxygenation. After stabilization of aortic flow at 50% in the reoxygenation phase different reagents were examined for their influence on heart performance. 1.5 mM of 2-Mercaptopropionylglycine (MPG) significantly increased aortic flow by 40%. The oxidized form of MPG (ox-MPG) at a concentration of 0.6 mM increased aortic flow by 125%. A molecular mechanism is proposed involving reorientation of the ATPase molecules at their membrane sites.
