Abstract
Na+/H+ exchangers play pivotal roles in the control of cell and tissue pH by mediating the electroneutral exchange of Na+ and H+ across cellular membranes. They belong to an ancient family of highly evolutionarily conserved proteins, and they play essential physiological roles in all phyla. In this review, we focus on the mammalian Na+/H+ exchangers (NHEs), the solute carrier (SLC) 9 family. This family of electroneutral transporters constitutes three branches: SLC9A, -B, and -C. Within these, each isoform exhibits distinct tissue expression profiles, regulation, and physiological roles. Some of these transporters are highly studied, with hundreds of original articles, and some are still only rudimentarily understood. In this review, we present and discuss the pioneering original work as well as the current state-of-the-art research on mammalian NHEs. We aim to provide the reader with a comprehensive view of core knowledge and recent insights into each family member, from gene organization over protein structure and regulation to physiological and pathophysiological roles. Particular attention is given to the integrated physiology of NHEs in the main organ systems. We provide several novel analyses and useful overviews, and we pinpoint main remaining enigmas, which we hope will inspire novel research on these highly versatile proteins.

Abstract
The main objective of this work was to demonstrate computationally that realistic human hearts can be cooled much faster by performing conjugate heat transfer consisting of pumping a cold liquid through the cardiac chambers and major veins while keeping the heart submerged in cold gelatin filling a cooling container. The human heart geometry used for simulations was obtained from three-dimensional, high resolution CT-angio scans. Two fluid flow domains for the right (pulmonic) and left (systemic) heart circulations, and two solid domains for the heart tissue and gelatin solution were defined for multi-domain numerical simulation. Detailed unsteady temperature fields within the heart tissue were calculated during the conjugate cooling process. A linear thermoelasticity analysis was performed to assess the stresses applied on the heart due to the coolant fluid shear and normal forces and to examine the thermal stress caused by temperature variation inside the heart. It was demonstrated that a conjugate cooling effort with coolant temperature at +4°C is capable of reducing the average heart temperature from +37°C to +8°C in 25 minutes for cases in which the coolant was steadily pumped only through major heart inlet veins and cavities.

Abstract
We reported that the combination of reactive oxygen species (ROS) quenchers Mn(III) tetrakis (4-benzoic acid) porphyrin (MnTBAP), catalase, and glutathione (MCG) given before 2 hours cold ischemia better protected cardiac mitochondria against cold ischemia and warm reperfusion (IR)-induced damage than MnTBAP alone. Here, we hypothesize that high K(+) cardioplegia (CP) plus MCG would provide added protection of mitochondrial bioenergetics and cardiac function against IR injury. Using fluorescence spectrophotometry, we monitored redox balance, ie reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and flavin adenine dinucleotide (NADH/FAD), superoxide (O(2) (•-)), and mitochondrial Ca(2+) (m[Ca(2+)]) in the left ventricular free wall. Guinea pig isolated hearts were perfused with either Krebs Ringer's (KR) solution, CP, or CP + MCG, before and during 27°C perfusion followed immediately by 2 hours of global ischemia at 27°C. Drugs were washed out with KR at the onset of 2 hours 37°C reperfusion. After 120 minutes warm reperfusion, myocardial infarction was lowest in the CP + MCG group and highest in the KR group. Developed left ventricular pressure recovery was similar in CP and CP + MCG and was better than in the KR group. O(2) (•-), m[Ca(2+)], and NADH/FAD were significantly different between the treatment and KR groups. O(2) (•-) was lower in CP + MCG than in the CP group. This study suggests that CP and ROS quenchers act in parallel to improve mitochondrial function and to provide protection against IR injury at 27°C.

Abstract
Inhibition of Na+/H+ exchange (NHE) during ischemia reduces cardiac injury due to reduced reverse mode Na+/Ca2+ exchange. We hypothesized that activating NHE-1 at buffer pH 8 during ischemia increases mitochondrial oxidation, Ca2+ overload, and reactive O2 species (ROS) levels and worsens functional recovery in isolated hearts and that NHE inhibition reverses these effects. Guinea pig hearts were perfused with buffer at pH 7.4 (control) or pH 8 +/- NHE inhibitor eniporide for 10 minutes before and for 10 minutes after 35- minute ischemia and then for 110 minutes with pH 7.4 buffer alone. Mitochondrial NADH and FAD, [Ca2+], and superoxide were measured by spectrophotofluorometry. NADH and FAD were more oxidized, and cardiac function was worse throughout reperfusion after pH 8 versus pH 7.4, Ca2+ overload was greater at 10-minute reperfusion, and superoxide generation was higher at 30-minute reperfusion. The pH 7.4 and eniporide groups exhibited similar mitochondrial function, and cardiac performance was most improved after pH 7.4+eniporide. Cardiac function on reperfusion after pH 8+eniporide was better than after pH 8. Percent infarction was largest after pH 8 and smallest after pH 7.4+eniporide. Activation of NHE with pH 8 buffer and the subsequent decline in redox state with greater ROS and Ca2+ loading underlie the poor functional recovery after ischemia and reperfusion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Donor human hearts cannot be preserved for >5 hours between explantation and recipient implantation. A better approach is needed to preserve transplantable hearts for longer periods, ideally at ambient conditions for transport. We tested whether Lifor solution could satisfactorily preserve guinea pig isolated hearts perfused at low flow with no added oxygen at room temperature for 20 hours. METHODS Hearts were isolated from 18 guinea pigs and perfused initially with oxygenated Krebs-Ringer (KR) solution at 37 degrees C. Hearts were then perfused with recirculated Lifor or cardioplegia (CP) solution (K(+) 15 mmol/liter) equilibrated with room air at 20% of control flow at 26 degrees C for 20 hours. Hearts were then perfused at 100% flow with KR for 2 hours at 37 degrees C. RESULTS Lifor and CP arrested all hearts. During the 20-hour low-flow perfusion with Lifor coronary pressure increased by 6 +/- 2 mm Hg and percent oxygen extraction by 29 +/- 2%, whereas oxygen consumption (MVo(2)) decreased by 74 +/- 4%. Similar changes were noted for CP, except that MVo(2) was decreased by 86 +/- 7%. After 20-hour low-flow perfusion with Lifor and 2 hours of warm reperfusion with KR solution, diastolic left ventricular pressure (LVP), maximal dLVP/dt and percent oxygen extraction returned completely to baseline values, whereas heart rate returned to 80 +/- 3%, developed LVP to 76 +/- 3%, minimal dLVP/dt (relaxation) to 65 +/- 4%, coronary flow to 80 +/- 4%, oxygen consumption to 82 +/- 4% and cardiac efficiency to 85 +/- 4% of baseline values. Flow responses to adenosine and nitroprusside after Lifor treatment were 65 +/- 3% and 64 +/- 3% of their baseline values. After cardioplegia, treatment there was no cardiac activity, with a diastolic pressure of 35 +/- 14 mm Hg and a return of coronary flow to only 45 +/- 3% of baseline value. CONCLUSIONS Compared with a cardioplegia solution at ambient air and temperature conditions, Lifor solution is a much better medium for long-term cardiac preservation in this model.

Abstract
There is no suitable solution to preserve hearts for longer than 5 h between donor explant and recipient implant. Lifor is a fully artificial preservation medium containing both a nonprotein oxygen and nutrient carrier (nanoparticles) and cellular nutrients, including amino acids and sugars. We proposed that recirculated Lifor solution would satisfactorily preserve guinea pig isolated hearts perfused at low flow with no added O2at room temperature for 10 h. Hearts were isolated from 21 guinea pigs and perfused with Krebs-Ringer (KR) solution (97% O2and 3% CO2) at 37°C. Heart rate, inflow and outflow O2tension, coronary flow, left ventricular pressure (LVP), and maximal and minimal rate of change in LVP (dLVP/d t) were measured. After baseline measurements, hearts were perfused with recirculated Lifor or ViaSpan equilibrated with room air at 15% of control flow at 26°C for 10 h. Hearts were then perfused at 100% flow with KR for 2 h at 37°C. A time control (untreated) group was perfused only with KR solution for 15 h. Lifor arrested and protected hearts against diastolic contracture and maintained a low O2extraction. Compared with time controls, Lifor led to a higher developed LVP and coronary flow; %O2extraction and cardiac efficiency were similar between these two groups. Hearts similarly treated with ViaSpan exhibited diastolic contracture and lower %O2extraction during treatment and, upon reperfusion with KR, exhibited continued diastolic contracture, no return of heart rate or contractility, low coronary flow, low %O2extraction, and marked infarction. For long-term cardiac protection, a suitable preservation solution recirculated at low flow and room temperature without supplemental O2would reduce the support apparatus required for transport. Lifor was far superior to ViaSpan in meeting these requirements.

Abstract
Hypothermic perfusion of the heart decreases oxidative phosphorylation and increases NADH. Because O(2) and substrates remain available and respiration (electron transport system, ETS) may become impaired, we examined whether reactive oxygen species (ROS) exist in excess during hypothermic perfusion. A fiberoptic probe was placed on the left ventricular free wall of isolated guinea pig hearts to record intracellular ROS, principally superoxide (O(2)(-).), and an extracellular reactive nitrogen reactant, principally peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)), a product of nitric oxide (NO.) + O(2)(-). Hearts were loaded with dihydroethidium (DHE), which is oxidized by O(2)(-). to ethidium, or were perfused with l-tyrosine, which is oxidized by ONOO(-) to dityrosine (diTyr). Shifts in fluorescence were measured online; diTyr fluorescence was also measured in the coronary effluent. To validate our methods and to examine the source and identity of ROS during cold perfusion, we examined the effects of a superoxide dismutase mimetic Mn(III) tetrakis(4-benzoic acid)porphyrin chloride (MnTBAP), the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor N(G)-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (l-NAME), and several agents that impair electron flux through the ETS: menadione, sodium azide (NaN(3)), and 2,3-butanedione monoxime (BDM). Drugs were given before or during cold perfusion. ROS measured by DHE was inversely proportional to the temperature between 37 degrees C and 3 degrees C. We found that perfusion at 17 degrees C increased DHE threefold versus perfusion at 37 degrees C; this was reversed by MnTBAP, but not by l-NAME or BDM, and was markedly augmented by menadione and NaN(3). Perfusion at 17 degrees C also increased myocardial and effluent diTyr (ONOO(-)) by twofold. l-NAME, MnTBAP, or BDM perfused at 37 degrees C before cooling or during 17 degrees C perfusion abrogated, whereas menadione and NaN(3) again enhanced the cold-induced increase in ROS. Our results suggest that hypothermia moderately enhances O(2)(-). generation by mitochondria, whereas O(2)(-). dismutation is markedly slowed. Also, the increase in O(2)(-). during hypothermia reacts with available NO. to produce ONOO(-), and drug-induced O(2)(-). dismutation eliminates the hypothermia-induced increase in O(2)(-).

Abstract
Sodium ion (Na(+)) transporters have roles in the modulation of cardiomyocyte pH and Na(+) and Ca(2+) handling. Activation of the cardiac Na(+)-H(+) exchanger 1 (NHE1) during ischaemia induces arrhythmias, myocardial stunning and irreversible cell injury. As the benefits of NHE1 inhibitors (e.g., amiloride, cariporide) in models of myocardial infarction are usually much greater when used as pretreatment, rather than during or after ischaemia, it is probably not surprising that clinical trials with cariporide in ischaemia have shown little shortterm benefit. NHE1 inhibitors have been shown to be beneficial in animal models of ventricular fibrillation and resuscitation, cardioplegia, hypertrophy and heart failure, and their therapeutic potential in these conditions should be further developed. The Na(+)-HCO(3)(-) cotransporter (NBC) is also stimulated by intracellular acidification, and part of the benefit of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors after myocardial infarction may be due to inhibition of the NBC. Selective inhibitors of the NBC are required to determine the therapeutic potential of this mechanism. The Na(+)-Ca(2+) exchanger (NCX) has a major role in cardiac Na(+) and Ca(2+) homeostasis and influences cardiac electrical activity. The NCX also has a role in ischaemia/infarction, arrhythmias, hypertrophy and heart failure. NCX inhibitors may have beneficial effects in animal models of ischaemia and reperfusion injury and the therapeutic benefit of these should be further studied in animal models.

Abstract
This paper presents a review of recent research on the hypothermic storage of hepatocytes. The first focus is on the diversity of methodologies currently employed in this area. The cell damage caused by hypothermic preservation and its possible mechanism are then investigated on both morphological and molecular biology. Later, the gene expressions on a mRNA level or enzyme level after hypothermic preservation are further discussed. Finally, the improvement of hypothermic storage by preconditioning, such as by increasing temperature, is explored.

Abstract
Cold cardioplegia protects against reperfusion damage. Blocking Na+/H+ exchange may be as protective as cardioplegia by improving the left ventricular pressure (LVP)-[Ca2+] relationship after cold ischemia. In guinea pig isolated hearts subjected to cold ischemia (4 h, 17 degrees C) and reperfusion, the cardioprotective effects of a Krebs-Ringer (KR) solution, a cardioplegia solution, a KR solution containing the Na+/H+ exchange inhibitor eniporide (1 microM), and a cardioplegia solution containing eniporide were compared. Treatments were given before and initially after cold ischemia. Systolic and diastolic [Ca2+] were calculated from indo-1 fluorescence transients recorded at the LV free wall. During ischemia, diastolic [Ca2+] increased in each group but more so in the KR group. Peak systolic and diastolic [Ca2+] on initial reperfusion were highest after KR and smallest after cardioplegia + eniporide. After reperfusion, systolic-diastolic LVP (% of baseline) and infarct size (%), respectively, were KR, 47 +/- 3%, 37 +/- 4%; cardioplegia, 71 +/- 5%*, 20 +/- 2.2%*; KR + eniporide, 73 +/- 5%*, 11 +/- 3%* dagger; and cardioplegia + eniporide 77 +/- 3%*, 10 +/- 1.4%* dagger (*P </= 0.05 vs KR; dagger P </= 0.05 vs cardioplegia). Ca2+ overload was reduced in each treated group, and most in the cardioplegia + eniporide group, and was associated with the improved function. Inhibition of Na+/H+ exchange was as effective as cardioplegia in restoring function and better than cardioplegia in reducing infarct size after hypothermic ischemia. The combination of cardioplegia and Na+/H+ exchange inhibition did not produce additive protective effects but caused a larger decrease in Ca2+ loading.

Abstract
We modeled changes in contractile element kinetics derived from the cyclic relationship between myoplasmic [Ca(2+)], measured by indo 1 fluorescence, and left ventricular pressure (LVP). We estimated model rate constants of the Ca(2+) affinity for troponin C (TnC) on actin (A) filament (TnCA) and actin and myosin (M) cross-bridge (A x M) cycling in intact guinea pig hearts during baseline 37 degrees C perfusion and evaluated changes at 1) 20 min 17 degrees C pressure, 2) 30-min reperfusion (RP) after 30-min 37 degrees C global ischemia during 37 degrees C RP, and 3) 30-min RP after 240-min 17 degrees C global ischemia during 37 degrees C RP. At 17 degrees C perfusion versus 37 degrees C perfusion, the model predicted: A x M binding was less sensitive; A x M dissociation was slower; Ca(2+) was less likely to bind to TnCA with A x M present; and Ca(2+) and TnCA binding was less sensitive in the absence of A x M. Model results were consistent with a cold-induced fall in heart rate from 260 beats/min (37 degrees C) to 33 beats/min (17 degrees C), increased diastolic LVP, and increased phasic Ca(2+). On RP after 37 degrees C ischemia vs. 37 degrees C perfusion, the model predicted the following: A x M binding was less sensitive; A x M dissociation was slower; and Ca(2+) was less likely to bind to TnCA in the absence of A. M. Model results were consistent with reduced myofilament responsiveness to [Ca(2+)] and diastolic contracture on 37 degrees C RP. In contrast, after cold ischemia versus 37 degrees C perfusion, A x M association and dissociation rates, and Ca(2+) and TnCA association rates, returned to preischemic values, whereas the dissociation rate of Ca(2+) from A x M was ninefold faster. This cardiac muscle kinetic model predicted a better-restored relationship between Ca(2+) and cross-bridge function on RP after an eightfold longer period of 17 degrees C than 37 degrees C ischemia.

Abstract
Brief ischemia before normothermic ischemia protects hearts against reperfusion injury (ischemic preconditioning, IPC), but it is unclear whether it protects against long-term moderate hypothermic ischemia. We explored in isolated guinea pig hearts 1) the influence of two 2-min periods of normothermic ischemia before 4 h, 17 degrees C hypothermic ischemia on cardiac cytosolic [Ca(2+)], mechanical and metabolic function, and infarct size, and 2) the potential role of K(ATP) channels in eliciting cardioprotection. We found that IPC before 4 h moderate hypothermia improved myocardial perfusion, contractility, and relaxation during normothermic reperfusion. Protection was associated with markedly reduced diastolic [Ca(2+)] loading throughout both hypothermic storage and reperfusion. Global infarct size was markedly reduced from 36 +/- 2 (SE)% to 15 +/- 1% with IPC. Bracketing ischemic pulses with 200 microM 5-hydroxydecanoic acid or 10 microM glibenclamide increased infarct size to 28 +/- 3% and 26 +/- 4%, respectively. These results suggest that brief ischemia before long-term hypothermic storage adds to the cardioprotective effects of hypothermia and that this is associated with decreased cytosolic [Ca(2+)] loading and enhanced ATP-sensitive K channel opening.
