Abstract:

The effects of a novel sodium/hydrogen exchanger-1 (NHE-1) inhibitor, KR-32568, were studied in an anesthetized rat model of 30 min ischemia/2.5 h reperfusion heart injury. KR-32568 dose-dependently inhibited NHE-1-mediated rabbit platelet swelling induced by intracellular acidification. In our anesthetized rat model, KR-32568 reduced infarct size from 67 (control) to 43 and 24% at 0.1 and 1.0 mg/kg (i.v. bolus, given 10 min before ischemia), respectively. KR-32568 at the same doses also significantly reduced the total number of ventricular premature beats during ischemia/reperfusion from 530 (control) to 266 and 115 beats, ventricular tachycardia (VT) incidence from 51 (control) to 21 and 8, VT duration from 238 s (control) to 63 and 33 s, ventricular fibrillation (VF) incidence from 17 (control) to 8 and 0, and VF duration from 85 s to 18 and 1 s. These results indicate that KR-32568 may exert potent cardioprotective effects in rats via inhibition of sodium/hydrogen exchanger-1.
