The subendocardial border zone during acute ischemia of the rabbit heart: an electrophysiologic, metabolic, and morphologic correlative study

Abstract

Isolated preparations of rabbit interventricular septum were perfused through the coronary arteries with oxygenated Tyrode's solution and placed in a tissue bath where they were superfused as well. Transmembrane potentials were simultaneously recorded from the subendocardium with two flexibly mounted microelectrodes, one from a superficial cell, and the other from a deep cell. Ischemia was produced by stopping coronary flow while superfusion with oxygenated Tyrode's solution was maintained. After a 7 to 12 min ischemic period, the preparation was fixed by coronary perfusion with fixative while the microelectrodes remained in place. After fixation, the microelectrodes were withdrawn. Appropriate tissue blocks were cut in 4 micron serial sections and the microelectrode track was followed until the tip position was identified. Transmembrane potentials during ischemia were divided into two categories: "border zone" potentials (resting membrane potential [RMP] 73 +/- 3 mVe, action potential amplitude [APA] 81 +/- 13 mV, action potential duration [APD] 116 +/- 48 msec, n = 12) and "ischemic" potentials (RMP 53 +/- 4 mV, APA 44 +/- 11 mV, APD 102 +/- 42 msec, n = 8). Ischemic potentials were recorded from cells at depths greater than ...Continue Reading
