Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To establish an ex vivo model of myocardial ischemia reperfusion in tree shrews. METHODS: The Langendorff ex vivo heart perfusion system was used to establish the myocardial ischemia reperfusion model in tree shrews with different irrigation and reperfusion time settings. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST) and lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) levels were measured by enzyme-labeled immunosorbent assay, creatine kinase MB (CK-MB) was detected using immunosuppression method, and malondialdehyde was measured with thiobarbital staining method; the infarct size was measured using 2, 3, 5-triphenyltrazoliumchloride (TTC) method. RESULTS: Ischemia for 30 min and reperfusion for 30 and 60 min caused more significant increase in CK-MB and LDH levels in the perfusion fluid and also in the levels of ALT, CK-MB and AST in the myocardial tissue compared with other experimental settings (P<0.05), but these parameters were comparable between the former two settings (P>0.05). The mean heart rate in 30-min ischemia with 60-min reperfusion group was obviously lower than that in continuous reperfusion group, 15-min ischemia with 30-min reperfusion group and 30-min ischemia with 30-min reperfusion group (P<0.05), and the heart rate was similar between the latter 3 groups (P>0.05). ECG analysis showed that the mean heart rate in 30-min ischemia with 30-min reperfusion group was closer to the physiological heart rate of tree shrews. CONCLUSION: We successfully established an ex vivo myocardial ischemia reperfusion model using tree shrews, and ischemia for 30 min followed by reperfusion for 30 min is the optimal experimental setting.
