Abstract
Because of the many energy-demanding functions they perform and their physical location in the lung, alveolar epithelial type II (ATII) cells have a rapid cellular metabolism and the potential to influence substrate availability and bioenergetics both locally in the lung and throughout the body. A thorough understanding of ATII cell metabolic function in the healthy lung is necessary for determining how metabolic changes may contribute to pulmonary disease pathogenesis; however, lung metabolism is poorly understood at the cellular level. Here, we examine lactate utilization by primary ATII cells and the ATII model cell line, MLE-15, and link lactate consumption directly to mitochondrial ATP generation. ATII cells cultured in lactate undergo mitochondrial respiration at near-maximal levels, two times the rates of those grown in glucose, and oxygen consumption under these conditions is directly linked to mitochondrial ATP generation. When both lactate and glucose are available as metabolic substrate, the presence of lactate alters glucose metabolism in ATII to favor reduced glycolytic function in a dose-dependent manner, suggesting that lactate is used in addition to glucose when both substrates are available. Lactate use by ATII mitochondria is dependent on monocarboxylate transporter (MCT)-mediated import, and ATII cells express MCT1, the isoform that mediates lactate import by cells in other lactate-consuming tissues. The balance of lactate production and consumption may play an important role in the maintenance of healthy lung homeostasis, whereas disruption of lactate consumption by factors that impair mitochondrial metabolism, such as hypoxia, may contribute to lactic acid build-up in disease.

Abstract
Triglyceride turnover in the isolated C57/BL6 mouse heart was measured by dynamic 13C edit-(1)H observe NMR and the rate of fatty acid oxidation was determined by 13C NMR isotopomer analysis. In the presence of a physiological mixture of substrates, energy was produced in the citric acid cycle by oxidation of long-chain fatty acids (18%), ketones (34%), lactate (24%), pyruvate (7%), and other sources (17%). Exogenous fatty acids appeared in the triglyceride pool at 0.24 micromol/g dry wt/min, similar to the rate of oxidation of long-chain fatty acids, 0.16 micromol/g dry wt/min. Isoproterenol decreased the rate of de novo triglyceride synthesis and increased the rate of fatty acid oxidation.

Abstract
The myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO(2)) to left ventricular pressure-volume area (PVA) relationship is assumed unaltered by substrates, despite varying phosphate-to-oxygen ratios and possible excess MVO(2) associated with fatty acid consumption. The validity of this assumption was tested in vivo. Left ventricular volumes and pressures were assessed with a combined conductance-pressure catheter in eight anesthetized pigs. MVO(2) was calculated from coronary flow and arterial-coronary sinus O(2) differences. Metabolism was altered by glucose-insulin-potassium (GIK) or Intralipid-heparin (IH) infusions in random order and monitored with [(14)C]glucose and [(3)H]oleate tracers. Profound shifts in glucose and fatty acid oxidation were observed. Contractility, coronary flow, and slope of the MVO(2)-PVA relationship were unchanged during GIK and IH infusions. MVO(2) at zero PVA (unloaded MVO(2)) was 0.16 +/- 0.13 J x beat(-1) x 100 g(-1) higher during IH compared with GIK infusion (P = 0.001), a 48% increase. The study demonstrates a marked energetic advantage of glucose oxidation in the myocardium, profoundly affecting the MVO(2)-PVA relationship. This may in part explain the "oxygen-wasting" effect of lipid-enhancing interventions such as adrenergic drugs and ischemia.

Abstract
Of all humans thus far studied, Sherpas are considered by many high-altitude biomedical scientists as most exquisitely adapted for life under continuous hypobaric hypoxia. However, little is known about how the heart is protected in hypoxia. Hypoxia defense mechanisms in the Sherpa heart were explored by in vivo, noninvasive 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Six Sherpas were examined under two experimental conditions [normoxic (21% FiO2) and hypoxic (11% FiO2) and in two adaptational states--the acclimated state (on arrival at low-altitude study sites) and the deacclimating state (4 weeks of ongoing exposure to low altitude). Four lowland subjects were used for comparison. We found that the concentration ratios of phosphocreatine (PCr)/adenosine triphosphate (ATP) were maintained at steady-state normoxic values (0.96, SEM = 0.22) that were about half those found in normoxic lowlanders (1.76, SEM = 0.03) monitored the same way at the same time. These differences in heart energetic status between Sherpas and lowlanders compared under normoxic conditions remained highly significant (P < 0.02) even after 4 weeks of deacclimation at low altitudes. In Sherpas under acute hypoxia, the heart rate increased by 20 beats per min from resting values of about 70 beats per min, and the percent saturation of hemoglobin decreased to about 75%. However, these perturbations did not alter the PCr/ATP concentration ratios, which remained at about 50% of the values expected in healthy lowlanders. Because the creatine phosphokinase reaction functions close to equilibrium, these steady-state PCr/ATP ratios presumably coincided with about 3-fold higher free adenosine diphosphate (ADP) concentrations. Higher ADP concentrations (i.e., lower [PCr]/[ATP] ratios) were interpreted to correlate with the Km values for ADP-requiring kinases of glycolysis and to reflect elevated carbohydrate contributions to heart energy needs. This metabolic organization is postulated as advantageous in hypobaria because the ATP yield per O2 molecule is 25-60% higher with glucose than with free fatty acids (the usual fuels utilized in the human heart in postfasting conditions).

Abstract
A study of substrate selection in the isolated heart was made using 13C NMR isotopomer analysis, a method that unequivocally identifies relative substrate utilization. This technique has several advantages over conventional approaches used to study this problem. It detects the labeling of metabolic end-products present in tissue, as opposed to more indirect methods such as measurement of respiratory quotient, arteriovenous differences, or specific activity changes in the added substrate. It also has advantages over methods such as 14CO2 release, which may involve dilution of label with unlabeled pools before CO2 release. Furthermore, it can measure the relative oxidation of up to four substrates in a single experiment, which other labeling techniques cannot conveniently achieve. Substrate selection was considered in light of its effects on myocardial efficiency and recovery from ischemia. A mixture of four substrates (acetoacetate, glucose, lactate, and a mixture of long chain fatty acids), present at physiological concentration (0.17, 5.5, 1.2, and 0.35 mM, respectively), was examined. This is the first use of such a mixture in the study of substrate selection in an isolated organ preparation. At these concentrations, it was found that fatty acids supplied the majority of the acetyl-CoA (49%), and a substantial contribution was also provided by acetoacetate (23%). This suggests that the ketone bodies are a more important substrate than generally considered. Indeed, normalizing the relative utilizations on the basis of acetyl-CoA equivalents, ketone bodies were by far the preferred substrate. The relative lactate oxidation was only 15%, and glucose oxidation could not be detected. No change in utilization was detected after 15 min of ischemia followed by 40 min of reperfusion. The change in substrate selection with afterload was examined, to mimic the stress-related changes in workload found with ischemia. Only minor changes were found. Substrate selection from the same group of substrates, but employing concentrations observed during starvation, was also assessed. This represents the state during which most clinical treatments and evaluations are performed. In this case, acetoacetate was the most used substrate (78%), with small and equal contributions from fatty acids and endogenous substrates; the oxidation of lactate was suppressed.

Abstract
Efficiency is defined as the ratio of the energy delivered by a system to the energy supplied to it. Depending on the particular question being addressed, there exist a plethora of definitions of efficiency in medical texts, thus hampering their comparison. If only the ventricular work seen by the arterial system is under investigation, pressure-volume work will serve as a useful numerator. If, on the other hand, external and internal work together, i.e. the total mechanical work, is of interest, the pressure-volume area might be employed. Total myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO2) will be a useful denominator in the case of aerobic energy production. The MVO2 for the unloaded contraction must be assessed if, as in other energy transfer systems, net efficiency is to be addressed. If even smaller steps in the chain of energy transfer are to be investigated MVO2 for the arrested heart must be assessed. With an appropriate therapy, hemodynamic determinants can be varied, to improve cardiac efficiency. Nonetheless, measurement of all variables necessary for the calculation of efficiency remains a challenge, in particular in the clinical setting. Separation of the direct effects of drugs on efficiency is even more difficult, since hemodynamic conditions can hardly be controlled throughout the observation period, and changes in efficiency might be secondary to changes in hemodynamics. Whether the heart by itself employs mechanisms to improve its efficiency is still a matter of discussion: there is evidence that when oxygen supply decreases, the heart can switch from one substrate to a less costly one, or possibly can improve efficiency through better use of oxygen. Moreover, the heart seems to "sense" an even more decreased oxygen supply and reduce function in response. Myocardial stunning could be regarded as a protective mechanism as well, with function remaining depressed and the oxygen supply being normal or close to normal. One may conclude from the decreased efficiency that the excess oxygen consumption is used up for repair processes. The improved efficiency found in hypertrophied hearts represents another adaptive process. The underlying mechanism is unclear: a shift towards isomyosin V3 or some undefined shift in metabolic pathway is discussed. It is also still a moot question towards which objective the efficiency of the heart is adjusted. It has been described that under physiologic conditions, the efficiency of both the left and the right ventricle ought to be maximized.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
The contributions of changes in primary systolic and diastolic properties, limitations of contractile reserve, and alterations in energy efficiency to the left ventricular dysfunction seen with chronic pacing tachycardia were investigated. Seven dogs (heart failure group) were ventricularly paced at 250 beats per minute for 26.3 +/- 2.9 days and compared with a separate control group (n = 8). STudies were performed with isolated, metabolically supported hearts coupled to a computer-controlled loading system. Pressure-volume relations and myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO2) were measured to assess chamber systolic and diastolic properties and efficiency (relation between MVO2 and pressure-volume area [PVA]). Systolic function was reduced in failure hearts versus controls as assessed by the slope of the end-systolic pressure-volume relation (1.29 +/- 0.94 versus 2.71 +/- 0.98 mm Hg/ml, p less than 0.01) and lowered end-systolic stiffness at a matched stress (956.1 +/- 123.5 versus 1,401.7 +/- 431.7 g/cm2, p less than 0.05). Diastolic chamber and myocardial stiffness were unaltered in failure hearts, but the unstressed diastolic-arrested volume was significantly larger (33.3 +/- 3.9 versus 21.9 +/- 7.6 ml, p less than 0.01). Inotropic response to increased heart rate and exogenous beta-adrenergic stimulation (dobutamine HCl) was significantly impaired in failure compared with control hearts. Most interestingly, failure hearts had a lowered slope of the MVO2-PVA relation (2.1 +/- 1.1 versus 2.9 +/- 1.4 ml O2.mm Hg-1.ml-1.100 g left ventricle-1, p less than 0.001), indicating increased efficiency of chemomechanical energy conversion. The y intercept of the MVO2-PVA relation, which reflects oxygen costs of basal metabolism and excitation-contraction coupling, was unchanged in the two groups despite decreased contractility of the heart failure hearts. These results demonstrate reduced chamber and myocardial contractility, dilatation without alteration of passive myocardial properties, impaired contractile reserve, and novel alterations in cardiac efficiency in this model of heart failure.

Abstract
Heart transplantation involves chronic effects due to denervation, rejection, and treatment of rejection. The chronically denervated dog heart provides a model for the effects of denervation alone. These hearts have been shown to contain intrinsic neurons with VIP and NPY as possible neurotransmitters. Myocardial tissue noradrenaline concentration falls to very low levels after degeneration of postganglionic sympathetic neurons, but dopamine remains in near-normal concentration and is probably synthesized extraneuronally. ANP is present and released normally; however, the natriuretic response to atrial distension is blunted, suggesting that this response is mainly due to a reflex mechanism. Chronically denervated myocardial tissue exhibits increased oxygen consumption in vitro and increased Na-K, ATPase activity but has normal tissue levels of ATP and creatine phosphate. Glucose oxidation is inhibited in vivo, associated with increased levels of fructose-6-phosphate but normal glucose-6-phosphate, suggesting inhibition of phosphofructokinase activity. However, the enzyme protein concentration of phosphofructokinase, as judged by maximal in vitro activity, is normal. Maximal in vitro activities of succinate dehydrogenase, cytochrome oxidase, monoamine oxidase, calcium-dependent ATPase, and glyceraldehyde-3-dehydrogenase are also normal. From these findings, we would predict that patients with transplanted hearts are likely to show myocardial metabolic inefficiency.

Abstract
The mechanisms of myocardial injury and necrosis following transthoracic shocks from a direct current cardiac defibrillator were investigated in adult greyhounds. Myocardial lactate extraction became negative maximally at 1 minute, following two (mean -22% +/- SEM23) or five (-193% +/- 135) shocks and returned to baseline in 6-15 minutes. Myocardial necrosis assessed at 4 hours following the shock period was 0.05 g (+/- 0.03) after two shocks, 6.69 g (+/- 1.76) after five shocks and zero in controls. In further experiments, dogs received five or zero (dummy) shocks and mitochondria were isolated from their hearts following excision within 1 minute of receiving the final shock. Maximal oxygen consumption in right ventricular mitochondria was lower than the unshocked controls with both glutamate (66.9 +/- 9.4 nanoatoms of oxygen/mg per minute, n = 9 vs 86.6 +/- 13.6 nanoatoms/mg per minute, n = 7) and succinate (96.2 +/- 8.7 nanoatoms/mg per minute, n = 9 vs 119.5 +/- 14.4 nanoatoms/mg per minute, n = 7) as substrates. Using electron spin resonance spectroscopy, an increase in a peroxyl-free radical with g = 2.031 was detected in myocardial tissue after two internal shocks (50 joules stored energy, 0.5-minute intervals). We conclude that mitochondrial dysfunction and free-radical generation are likely contributors to cellular injury following multiple countershocks.

Abstract
Evidence is presented that, as in cardiomyocytes, vascular endothelial cells use fatty acids, in addition to glucose, as a respiratory fuel. Attention is focused on the cardiac interstitium, lined by vascular cells and cardiomyocytes, which may be enriched with metabolic products from these cells. Also, certain proteins are present in the interstitial fluid (Qi) such as plasma proteins and fatty acid binding protein (FABP). However, the concentration of FABP is so low in Qi that albumin is more important to shuttle long chain fatty acids in the interstitial fluid between cardiomyocytes and the vascular compartment. Under hypoxic conditions (hypo)xanthine, lactate and fatty acids may be expected to accumulate in the interstitium, as well as proteins from adjacent cells, such as xanthine oxidase from endothelial cells. This enzyme, acting upon the elevated level of (hypo)xanthine, giving rise to O2-., may be involved in the damage of the ischaemic heart. The significance of the interstitium in ischaemia and in fibrosis following long standing cardiac lipidosis is briefly discussed, as well as the possible mechanisms involved in fatty acid transport in the heart.

Abstract
Nitroglycerin improves perfusion to ischemic myocardial regions and therefore has theoretical advantages over sodium nitroprusside to treat hypertension (mean arterial pressure [MAP] greater than 95 mm Hg) following coronary bypass operation. Thirty-three hypertensive patients were randomized to an initial infusion of either nitroglycerin or nitroprusside in a crossover trial designed to reduce MAP to 85 mm Hg. Thermodilution cardiac output measurements permitted calculation of left ventricular stroke work index (LVSWI), and nuclear ventriculograms permitted estimation of left ventricular ejection fraction, left ventricular end-diastolic volume index (LVEDVI), and left ventricular end-systolic volume index (LVESVI). Coronary sinus blood flow was measured by the continuous thermodilution technique, and arterial and coronary sinus lactate measurements permitted calculation of myocardial lactate flux (MVL). Both nitroglycerin and nitroprusside reduced MAP (-25 +/- 12 mm Hg and -20 +/- 10 mm Hg, respectively; not significant [NS]). Nitroglycerin reduced LVSWI more than did nitroprusside (-15 +/- 13 gm-m/m2 and -7 +/- 9 gm-m/m2, respectively; p less than 0.01). Both agents increased left ventricular ejection fraction (nitroglycerin, +8 +/- 8%, and nitroprusside, +10 +/- 7%; NS), and decreased LVEDVI (-20 +/- 22 ml/m2 and -11 +/- 17 ml/m2, respectively; NS) and LVESVI (-13 +/- 14 ml/m2 and -10 +/- 12 ml/m2, respectively; NS). Coronary sinus blood flow decreased with both drugs (NS), but MVL increased with nitroglycerin (+0.02 +/- 0.14 mmol/min) and decreased with nitroprusside (-0.02 +/- 0.02 mmol/min) (p less than 0.05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The treatment of postoperative hypertension with nitroglycerin or nitroprusside reduces cardiac filling, and volume loading is required to maintain hemodynamic and metabolic stability. Postoperative hypertension (mean arterial pressure greater than 95 mm Hg) developed in 33 patients who were randomized to an initial infusion of nitroglycerin or nitroprusside in a crossover trial. Volume loading (a rapid infusion of 250 to 500 ml of colloid to raise the left atrial pressure 2 to 4 mm Hg) was instituted prior to hypertension and again following the crossover trial during the infusion of nitroglycerin (11 patients) and nitroprusside (13 patients). Volume loading increased left ventricular end-diastolic volume index (LVEDVI) as documented by nuclear ventriculography, cardiac index (CI), and left ventricular stroke work index (LVSWI). Although CI was higher (p less than 0.01) with nitroprusside at any level of LVEDVI, myocardial performance (the relation between LVSWI and LVEDVI) was not different. Diastolic compliance (the relation between left atrial pressure and LVEDVI) was increased (p less than 0.01) with nitroglycerin. Myocardial metabolism was assessed by calculating myocardial lactate flux (MVL), the product of myocardial lactate extraction and coronary sinus blood flow by the thermodilution technique. Volume loading increased MVL during nitroglycerin therapy and decreased (p less than 0.01) MVL during nitroprusside therapy. Volume loading restored preload and increased CI with both nitroglycerin and nitroprusside. Only nitroglycerin improved myocardial lactate utilization. Nitroglycerin is the preferred vasodilator when ischemia is suspected after coronary bypass operations.

Abstract
The relationship between extracellular palmitate and the accumulation of long-chain fatty-acyl coenzyme A with that of high-energy phosphate metabolism was investigated in the isolated perfused diabetic rat heart. Hearts were perfused with a glucose/albumin buffer supplemented with 0, 0.5, 1.2 or 2.0 mM palmitate. 31P-NMR was used to analyze phosphocreatine and ATP metabolism during 1 h of constant-flow recirculation perfusion. At the end of perfusion, frozen samples were taken for chemical analysis of high-energy phosphates and the free and acylated fractions of coenzyme A and carnitine. Perfusion of diabetic hearts with palmitate, unlike control hearts, caused a time-dependent and concentration-dependent reduction in ATP, despite normal and constant phosphocreatine. Concentrations of acid-soluble coenzyme A, long-chain-acyl coenzyme A and total tissue coenzyme A were elevated in palmitate-perfused diabetic hearts, while the total tissue carnitine pool was decreased. Increases in long-chain-acyl coenzyme A correlated with the reduction in myocardial ATP. This reduction in ATP could not be adequately explained by alterations in heart rate, perfusion pressure or vascular resistance.
