[PMID: 27793854 DOI: 10.1152/ajpheart.00471.2016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2016] [Revised: 10/07/2016] [Accepted: 10/26/2016] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the accumulation of serotonin (5-HT) and degradation of 5-HT taken up into cells in the ischemic region during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion. Using microdialysis technique in anesthetized rats, we monitored myocardial interstitial levels of 5-HT and its metabolite produced by monoamine oxidase (MAO), 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid (5-HIAA), during 30-min coronary occlusion followed by 45-min reperfusion, and investigated the effects of local administration of the MAO inhibitor pargyline and the 5-HT uptake inhibitor fluoxetine. In the vehicle group, the dialysate 5-HT concentration increased from 1.3 ± 0.2 nM at baseline to 29.6 ± 2.8 nM at 22.5-30 min of occlusion, but the dialysate 5-HIAA concentration did not change from baseline (9.9 ± 1.1 nM). Upon reperfusion, the dialysate 5-HT concentration increased further to a peak (34.2 ± 4.2 nM) at 0-7.5 min and then declined. The dialysate 5-HIAA concentration increased to 31.9 ± 5.2 nM at 7.5-15 min of reperfusion and maintained this high level until 45 min. Pargyline markedly suppressed the increase in dialysate 5-HIAA concentration after reperfusion and increased the averaged dialysate 5-HT concentration during the reperfusion period. Fluoxetine suppressed the increase in dialysate 5-HT concentration during occlusion but did not change dialysate 5-HT or 5-HIAA concentration after reperfusion. During ischemia, 5-HT secreted from ischemic tissues accumulates but 5-HT degradation by MAO is suppressed. After reperfusion, degradation of 5-HT taken up into cells is enhanced and contributes to the clearance of accumulated 5-HT. This degradation following cellular uptake is dependent on MAO activity but not the fluoxetine-sensitive uptake transporter. NEW & NOTEWORTHY By monitoring myocardial interstitial levels of 5-HT and its metabolite, 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid, we investigated 5-HT kinetics during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion. 5-HT accumulates but 5-HT degradation is suppressed during ischemia. After reperfusion, 5-HT degradation is enhanced and this degradation is dependent on monoamine oxidase activity but not fluoxetine-sensitive uptake transporter.

Abstract
To elucidate the involvement of monoamine oxidase (MAO) in hydroxyl radical production and cardiomyocyte injury during ischemia as well as after reperfusion, we applied microdialysis technique to the heart of anesthetized rats. Dialysate samples were collected during 30 min of induced ischemia followed by 60 min of reperfusion. We monitored dialysate 3,4-dihydrobenzoic acid (3,4-DHBA) concentration as an index of hydroxyl radical production using a trapping agent (4-hydroxybenzoic acid), and dialysate myoglobin concentration as an index of cardiomyocyte injury in the ischemic region. The effect of local administration of a MAO inhibitor, pargyline, was investigated. Dialysate 3,4-DHBA concentration increased from 1.9 ± 0.5 nM at baseline to 3.5 ± 0.7 nM at 20-30 min of occlusion. After reperfusion, dialysate 3,4-DHBA concentration further increased reaching a maximum (4.5 ± 0.3 nM) at 20-30 min after reperfusion, and stabilized thereafter. Pargyline suppressed the averaged increase in dialysate 3,4-DHBA concentration by ∼72% during occlusion and by ∼67% during reperfusion. Dialysate myoglobin concentration increased from 235 ± 60 ng/ml at baseline to 1309 ± 298 ng/ml at 20-30 min after occlusion. After reperfusion, dialysate myoglobin concentration further increased reaching a peak (5833 ± 1017 ng/ml) at 10-20 min after reperfusion, and then declined. Pargyline reduced the averaged dialysate myoglobin concentration by ∼56% during occlusion and by ∼41% during reperfusion. MAO plays a significant role in hydroxyl radical production and cardiomyocyte injury during ischemia as well as after reperfusion.

Abstract
AIMS The aim of this study was to elucidate myocardial interstitial serotonin (5-HT) kinetics in the heart, including 5-HT reuptake and enzymatic degradation to 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid (5-HIAA) via monoamine oxidase (MAO). MAIN METHODS Using microdialysis technique in anesthetized rats, we simultaneously monitored myocardial interstitial levels of 5-HT and its major metabolite, 5-HIAA, in the left ventricle and examined the effects of local administration of a MAO inhibitor, pargyline, or a 5-HT uptake inhibitor, fluoxetine. KEY FINDINGS Pargyline increased dialysate 5-HT concentration from 1.8±0.3 at baseline to 3.9±0.5nM but decreased dialysate 5-HIAA concentration from 20.7±1.0 at baseline to 15.8±1.4nM at 60-80min of administration. Fluoxetine increased dialysate 5-HT concentration from 1.9±0.4 at baseline to 6.5±0.9nM at 60-80min of administration, but did not change dialysate 5-HIAA concentration. Local administration of ADP (100mM) increased dialysate 5-HT and 5-HIAA concentrations. Pargyline did not affect ADP-induced increase in dialysate 5-HT concentration but suppressed ADP-induced increase in dialysate 5-HIAA concentration during 60min of ADP administration. Fluoxetine increased dialysate 5-HT concentration at 40-60min of ADP administration, but did not affect ADP-induced increase in dialysate 5-HIAA concentration. SIGNIFICANCE Simultaneous monitoring of myocardial interstitial 5-HT and 5-HIAA levels provides valuable information on 5-HT kinetics including reuptake and enzymatic degradation by MAO, which play a role in the regulation of myocardial interstitial 5-HT levels at baseline and when 5-HT levels are elevated.

Acta Physiol (Oxf) 2013; 207:260-8.

Abstract
AIM Although deleterious effects of serotonin (5-HT) have been demonstrated during myocardial ischaemia-reperfusion, little information is available on myocardial interstitial 5-HT kinetics. This study evaluated the contribution of 5-HT reuptake and degradation to myocardial interstitial 5-HT levels during ischaemia-reperfusion. METHODS Using microdialysis technique in anaesthetized rabbits, we monitored myocardial interstitial 5-HT levels in the ischaemic region during ischaemia (30 min) followed by reperfusion (60 min) and investigated the effects of local infusion of fluoxetine, a 5-HT uptake inhibitor, and/or pargyline, a monoamine oxidase inhibitor. RESULTS In vehicle control, dialysate 5-HT concentration increased gradually from 16 ± 3 at baseline to 85 ± 18 nM during 20-30 min of ischaemia. Dialysate 5-HT concentration further increased to 236 ± 47 nM at 0-10 min of reperfusion and then began to decline. Averaged 5-HT concentration was 61 ± 11 during ischaemia and 113 ± 13 nM during reperfusion. Fluoxetine elevated dialysate 5-HT level at baseline and at 10-30 min of reperfusion; it increased averaged dialysate 5-HT concentration by approx. 304% during reperfusion compared to control. Pargyline elevated averaged dialysate 5-HT concentration during ischaemia by approx. 243% and that during reperfusion by approx. 250% compared to control. The changes in dialysate 5-HT concentration by fluoxetine + pargyline were similar to those of fluoxetine alone. CONCLUSION The 5-HT reuptake function plays an important role in the clearance of myocardial interstitial 5-HT during reperfusion. When 5-HT reuptake function is intact, degradation of 5-HT by monoamine oxidase contributes to reduce myocardial interstitial 5-HT level throughout ischaemia-reperfusion.

Contribution of catechol O-methyltransferase to the removal of accumulated interstitial catecholamines evoked by myocardial ischemia. Neurosci Lett 2005; 388:61-4. [PMID: 16026927 DOI: 10.1016/j.neulet.2005.06.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2005] [Revised: 06/15/2005] [Accepted: 06/16/2005] [Indexed: 10/25/2022]
Abstract
Catechol O-methyltransferase (COMT) plays an important role for clearance of high catecholamine levels. Although myocardial ischemia evokes similar excessive catecholamine accumulation, it is uncertain whether COMT activity is involved in the removal of accumulated catecholamines evoked by myocardial ischemia. We examined how COMT activity affects myocardial catecholamine levels during myocardial ischemia and reperfusion. We implanted a dialysis probe into the left ventricular myocardial free wall and measured dialysate catecholamines levels in anesthetized rabbits. Dialysate catecholamine levels served as an index of myocardial interstitial catecholamine levels. We introduced myocardial ischemia by 60 min occlusion of the main coronary artery. The ischemia-induced dialysate catecholamines levels were compared with and without the pretreatment with entacapone (COMT inhibitor, 10 mg/kg, i.p.). Acute myocardial ischemia progressively increased dialysate catecholamine levels. Acute myocardial ischemia increased dialysate norepinephrine (NE) levels (20,453+/-7186 pg/ml), epinephrine (EPI) levels (1724+/-706 pg/ml), and dopamine (DA) levels (1807+/-800 pg/ml) at the last 15 min of coronary occlusion. Inhibition of COMT activity by entacapone augmented the ischemia-induced NE levels (54,306+/-6618 pg/ml), EPI levels (2681+/-567 pg/ml), and DA (3551+/-710 pg/ml) levels at the last 15 min of coronary occlusion. Myocardial ischemia evoked NE, EPI, and DA accumulation in the myocardial interstitial space. The inhibition of COMT activity augmented these increments in NE, EPI, and DA. These data suggest that cardiac COMT activity influences on the removal of accumulated catecholamine during myocardial ischemia.

Abstract
Activation of the sympathetic nervous system is well documented in heart failure. Our previous studies demonstrated an increase in evoked norepinephrine (NE) release from left ventricle (LV) slices at 10 days of pressure overload. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that presynaptic modulation of NE release contributes to sympathetic activation after pressure overload. We examined the functional status of the presynaptic α2- and β2-receptors and ANG II subtype 1 (AT1) receptors in LV slices from 10-day aortic constricted (AC) and sham-operated (SO) rats. Evoked 3H overflow from LV slices preloaded with [3H]NE was increased in AC rats. The α2-agonist UK-14,304 decreased evoked 3H overflow with no differences between groups. The β2-agonist salbutamol increased evoked 3H overflow with greater sensitivity in slices from AC rats. The β-antagonist propranolol decreased evoked 3H overflow from LV slices of AC rats but not controls. ANG II increased evoked 3H overflow with greater sensitivity in slices from AC rats. These data support the hypothesis that aberrant presynaptic modulation of catecholamine release contributes to sympathetic activation after pressure overload.

Abstract
Although skeletal muscle sympathetic nerve activity plays an important role in the regulation of vascular tone and glucose metabolism, relatively little is known about regional norepinephrine (NE) kinetics in the skeletal muscle. With use of the dialysis technique, we implanted dialysis probes in the adductor muscle of anesthetized rabbits and examined whether dialysate NE and its metabolites were influenced by local administration of pharmacological agents through the dialysis probes. Dialysate dihydroxyphenylglycol (DHPG) and 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol (MHPG) were measured as two major metabolites of NE. The skeletal muscle dialysate NE, DHPG and MHPG were 11.7+/-1.2, 38.1+/-3.2, and 266.1+/-28.7 pg/ml, respectively. Basal dialysate NE levels were suppressed by tetrodotoxin (Na(+) channel blocker, 10 microM) (5.1+/-0.6 pg/ml), and augmented by desipramine (NE uptake blocker, 100 microM) (25.8+/-3.2 pg/ml). Basal dialysate DHPG levels were suppressed by pargyline (monoamine oxidase blocker, 1mM) (24.3+/-4.6 pg/ml) and augmented by reserpine (vesicle NE transport blocker, 10 microM) (75.8+/-2.7 pg/ml). Basal dialysate MHPG levels were not affected by pargyline, reserpine, or desipramine. Addition of tyramine (sympathomimetic amine, 600 microM), KCl (100 mM), and ouabain (Na(+)-K(+) ATPase blocker, 100 microM) caused brisk increases in dialysate NE levels (200.9+/-14.2, 90.6+/-25.7, 285.3+/-46.8 pg/ml, respectively). Furthermore, increases in basal dialysate NE levels were correlated with locally administered desipramine (10, 100 microM). Thus, dialysate NE and its metabolite were affected by local administration of pharmacological agents that modified sympathetic nerve endings function in the skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscle microdialysis with local administration of a pharmacological agent provides information about NE release, uptake, vesicle uptake and degradation at skeletal muscle sympathetic nerve endings.
