Reperfusion injury induces apoptosis in rabbit cardiomyocytes.

Abstract

The most effective way to limit myocardial ischemic necrosis is reperfusion, but reperfusion itself may result in tissue injury, which has been difficult to separate from ischemic injury. This report identifies elements of apoptosis (programmed cell death) in myocytes as a response to reperfusion but not ischemia. The hallmark of apoptosis, nucleosomal ladders of DNA fragments (approximately 200 base pairs), was detected in ischemic/reperfused rabbit myocardial tissue but not in normal or ischemic-only rabbit hearts. Granulocytopenia did not prevent nucleosomal DNA cleavage. In situ nick end labeling demonstrated DNA fragmentation predominantly in myocytes. The pattern of nuclear chromatin condensation was distinctly different in reperfused than in persistently ischemic tissue by transmission electron microscopy. Apoptosis may be a specific feature of reperfusion injury in cardiac myocytes, leading to late cell death.

Citation information
This citation data is accumulated from CrossRef, which receives citation information from participating publishers, including this journal. Not all publishers participate in CrossRef, so this information is not comprehensive. Additionally, data may not reflect the most current citations to this article, and the data may differ from citation information available from other sources (for example, Google Scholar, Web of Science, and Scopus).
