Abstract

Adrenomedullin (AM) limits experimental reperfusion injury due to Akt/eNOS signalling. We hypothesised that AM increases the NO pool and that cardioprotection is dependent on activation of soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC). Isolated hearts from CD31 mice were Langendorff-perfused. The left coronary artery was occluded for 30 min followed by 60 min reperfusion (R). AM 10 nM was administered from 15 min ischemia until 10 min reperfusion. Coronary effluent and LV myocardial samples were collected for nitrite (NO2−), nitrate (NO3−) and nitrosothiol (RNOS) analysis using reductive chemiluminescence. To examine the role of sGC, further hearts received the inhibitor ODQ 2 μM, alone or in combination with AM.

AM increased RNOS 10 min after reperfusion (411 ± 60 nM vs. 221 ± 36 nM control, p < 0.05) and RV cGMP was elevated by 71% versus baseline. Infarct reduction by AM was blunted by sGC inhibition (AM 12.2 ± 2.3% vs. AM + ODQ 28.9 ± 4.3%, control 35.4 ± 2.7%, p < 0.05). We conclude that AM increases myocardial NO bioavailability and provides protection via the NO/sGC/cGMP pathway.
