Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is produced from endothelial cells and cardiomyocytes composing the myocardium and benefits cardiac function through both vascular-dependent and—independent effects. This study was purposed to investigate the possible adverse effect of NO focusing on the voltage-gated Na+ channel in cardiomyocytes. We carried out patch-clamp experiments on rat neonatal cardiomyocytes demonstrating that NOC-18, an NO donor, significantly reduced Na+ channel current in a dose-dependent manner by a long-term application for 24 h, accompanied by a reduction of Nav1.5-mRNA and the protein, and an increase of a transcription factor forkhead box protein O1 (FOXO1) in the nucleus. The effect of NOC-18 on the Na+ channel was blocked by an inhibitor of thiol oxidation N-ethylmaleimide, a disulfide reducing agent disulfide 1,4-Dithioerythritol, or a FOXO1 activator paclitaxel, suggesting that NO is a negative regulator of the voltage-gated Na+ channel through thiols in regulatory protein(s) for the channel transcription.

Abstract
Persistent inhibition of cytochrome- c oxidase, a terminal enzyme of the mitochondrial electron transport chain, by excessive nitric oxide (NO) derived from inflammation, polluted air, and tobacco smoke contributes to enhanced oxidant production and programmed cell death or apoptosis of lung cells. We sought to determine whether the long-term exposure of pulmonary artery endothelial cells (PAEC) to pathophysiological concentrations of NO causes persistent inhibition of complex IV through redox modification of its key cysteine residues located in a putative NO-sensitive motif. Prolonged exposure of porcine PAEC to 1 mM 2,2′-(hydroxynitrosohydrazino)-bis-ethanamine (NOC-18; slow-releasing NO donor, equivalent to 1–5 μM NO) resulted in a gradual, persistent inhibition of complex IV concomitant with a reduction in ratios of mitochondrial GSH and GSSG. Overexpression of thioredoxin in mitochondria of PAEC attenuated NO-induced loss of complex IV activities, suggesting redox regulation of complex IV activity. Sequence analysis of complex IV subunits revealed a novel putative NO-sensitive motif in subunit II (S2). There are only two cysteine residues in porcine complex IV S2, located in the putative motif. Immunoprecipitation and Western blot analysis and “biotin switch” assay demonstrated that exposure of PAEC to 1 mM NOC-18 increased S-nitrosylation of complex IV S2 by 200%. Site-directed mutagenesis of these two cysteines of complex IV S2 attenuated NO-increased nitrosylation of complex IV S2. These results demonstrate for the first time that NO nitrosylates active site cysteines of complex IV, which is associated with persistent inhibition of complex IV. NO inhibition of complex IV via nitrosylation of NO-sensitive cysteine residues can be a novel upstream event in NO-complex IV signaling for NO toxicity in lung endothelial cells.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is a signal molecule involved in regulation of physiological and pathophysiological functions of the vascular endothelium such as apoptosis. We examined whether NO-modulates marker gene expression of signal transduction pathways in cultured pulmonary artery endothelial cell (PAEC). Cells were exposed to a NO donor, 1 mM NOC-18, for 0.5, 5, and 24 h, thereafter, expression levels of 96 marker genes associated with 18 signal transduction pathways were assessed using a signal transduction pathway-finder microarray analysis system. NO modulation of apoptotic pathways and nuclear factor (NF) microarray were further analyzed. Gene array analyses revealed that 17 genes in 13 signal pathways were up- or down-regulated in cells exposed to NO, four of which were significantly altered by NO and are associated with apoptotic pathways. Apoptotic pathways resulted in identification of 11 genes in this group. Nuclear factor microarray studies demonstrated that NO-modulated expression of these signal transduction genes was associated with regulation of NF-binding activities. Gel shift analysis verified the effects of NO on DNA-binding activity of NF. These results demonstrated that NO signaling modulates at least 13 signal transduction pathways including apoptosis-related families in PAEC.

Abstract
Although much has been accomplished in HTx and LTx in the past few decades, much remains to be conquered. It is an ever-changing, always fascinating field. Though science and technology know no limits, the primary limitation of HTx and LTx continues to be the availability of donor organs. One can only hope that further advances in educating the public will help close the large gap between the list of those waiting and the organs available for transplantation.

Abstract
We investigated whether nitric oxide (NO) upregulates a cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) channel and whether this contributes to sustained elevation of intracellular calcium levels ([Ca(2+)](i)) in porcine pulmonary artery endothelial cells (PAEC). Exposure of PAEC to an NO donor, NOC-18 (1 mM), for 18 h increased the protein and mRNA levels of CNGA2 40 and 50%, respectively (P < 0.05). [Ca(2+)](i) in NO-treated cells was increased 50%, and this increase was maintained for up to 12 h after removal of NOC-18 from medium. Extracellular calcium is required for the increase in [Ca(2+)](i) in NO-treated cells. Thapsigargin induced a rapid cytosolic calcium rise, whereas both a CNG and a nonselective cation channel blocker caused a faster decline in [Ca(2+)](i), suggesting that capacitive calcium entry contributes to the elevated calcium levels. Antisense inhibition of CNGA2 expression attenuated the NO-induced increases in CNGA2 expression and [Ca(2+)](i) and in capacitive calcium entry. Our results demonstrate that exogenous NO upregulates CNGA2 expression and that this is associated with elevated [Ca(2+)](i) and capacitive calcium entry in porcine PAEC.

Abstract
Heart transplantation has evolved over the past 30 years into a mainstay of therapy for heart failure patients. As the surgical technique and basic immunology were defined, heart transplantation became a real therapeutic option. Over the next few decades, thoracic transplant teams at Stanford University and other institutions refined this mode of therapy. This review addresses the history, current surgical technique, recipient and donor selection, postoperative care, immunosuppression, short- and long-term complications, and clinical outcomes associated with this procedure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Right ventricular failure from elevated pulmonary vascular resistance in the recipient is a main cause of early mortality after heart transplantation. When pharmacologic treatment is insufficient, mechanical circulatory assistance has been used to support the failing right ventricle. Considering right and left ventricular interdependence, we investigated whether intraaortic balloon counterpulsation (IABP) might also alleviate predominantly right ventricular dysfunction after heart transplantation. METHODS Among 278 cardiac recipients, 12 adult patients underwent mechanical circulatory support for cardiac allograft dysfunction. Five patients were treated with percutaneous IABP for early postoperative low cardiac output syndrome characterized by predominantly right ventricular failure. Clinical data and hemodynamic variables were recorded before and during IABP treatment. RESULTS Cardiac index (CI) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) increased (CI 1.7 +/- 0.1 to 2.5 +/- 0.2, MAP 53 +/- 12 to 71 +/- 7, p < 0.05) within 1 hour after IABP, whereas central venous pressure (CVP) and pulmonary artery wedge pressure (PAWP) decreased (CVP 21.6 +/- 1.7 to 13.8 +/- 3.1, p < .05; PAWP 14.8 +/- 4.9 to 12.4 +/- 3.7, nonsignificant). Within the next 12 hours, CI and mixed venous oxygen saturation increased (p < 0.05) and pulmonary artery pressure decreased (p < 0.05). All 5 patients were weaned successfully and 4 are long-term survivors with adequate cardiac performance at 1 year follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Intraaortic balloon pumping is a minimally invasive circulatory assist device with proved efficiency in low cardiac output syndromes. This report shows that low output syndrome caused by predominantly right ventricular allograft failure may be an additional indication for IABP.

Abstract
Pulmonary hypertension can pose a significant problem in the management of children with congestive heart failure. Assessment of pulmonary artery anatomy, pressures and (when possible) pulmonary vascular resistance is critically important in the evaluation of these children when they are under consideration for heart transplantation. Severe, fixed elevation of the pulmonary vascular resistance is a contraindication to heart transplantation because of concerns of acute post-transplant donor right ventricular failure. However, even modest degrees of pulmonary hypertension can complicate the post-operative management of pediatric heart transplant recipients. This review will provide information regarding the recognition, diagnosis, and pre-operative and post-operative management of pulmonary hypertension in patients under consideration for heart transplantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Use of cardiopulmonary bypass for emergency resuscitation is not new. In fact, John Gibbon proposed this concept for the treatment of severe pulmonary embolism in 1937. Significant progress has been made since, and two main concepts for cardiac assist based on cardiopulmonary bypass have emerged: cardiopulmonary support (CPS) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). The objective of this review is to summarize the state of the art in these two technologies. METHODS Configuration of CPS is now fairly standard. A mobile cart with relatively large wheels allowing for easy transportation carries a centrifugal pump, a back-up battery with a charger, an oxygen cylinder, and a small heating system. Percutaneous cannulation, pump-driven venous return, rapid availability, and transportability are the main characteristics of a CPS system. Cardiocirculatory arrest is a major predictor of mortality despite the use of CPS. In contrast, CPS appears to be a powerful tool for patients in cardiogenic shock before cardiocirculatory arrest, requiring some type of therapeutic procedures, especially repair of anatomically correctable problems or bridging to other mechanical circulatory support systems such as ventricular assist devices. CPS is in general not suitable for long-term applications because of the small-bore cannulas, resulting in significant pressure gradients and eventually hemolysis. RESULTS In contrast, ECMO can be designed for longer-term circulatory support. This requires large-bore cannulas and specifically designed oxygenators. The latter are either plasma leakage resistent (true membranes) or relatively thrombo-resistant (heparin coated). Both technologies require oxygenator changeovers although the main reason for this is different (clotting for the former, plasma leakage for the latter). Likewise, the tubing within a roller pump has to be displaced and centrifugal pump heads have to be replaced over time. ECMO is certainly the first choice for a circulatory support system in the neonatal and pediatric age groups, where the other assist systems are too bulky. ECMO is also indicated for patients improving on CPS. Septic conditions are, in general, considered as contraindications for ECMO. CONCLUSIONS Ease of availability and moderate cost of cardiopulmonary bypass-based cardiac support technologies have to be balanced against the significant immobilization of human resources, which is required to make them successful.
