Background—This study investigated whether myocardial protection by inhibition of Na+/H+ exchange (NHE) occurs during ischemia and/or during reperfusion.

Methods and Results—The left anterior descending coronary artery was occluded in 32 pigs for 60 minutes and then reperfused for 24 hours. Infarct sizes (nitroblue tetrazolium [NBT] stain, histology) were determined at the end of the experiments. An extracorporeal bypass was used to achieve a constant residual blood flow of 3 mL/min in the myocardium at risk during ischemia. The NHE-1 inhibitor cariporide or distilled water was infused into the extracorporeal bypass system. In group 1, active treatment was administered from the onset of ischemia until 10 minutes of reperfusion (n=8). In group 2, active treatment was infused during the first 30 minutes of ischemia only (n=8). The group 3 animals (n=8) received intracoronary cariporide after 45 minutes of ischemia until 10 minutes of reperfusion. The control animals (group 4, n=7) were treated similarly to group 1 animals, with the cariporide solution being replaced by distilled water. Infarct sizes of group 1 (NBT stain, 41.5±20%; histology, 44.6±12%) and group 2 (NBT stain, 33.5±14%; histology 34.9±15%) differed significantly (at least P=0.012) from infarct sizes of group 3 (NBT stain, 71.6±15%; histology, 69.2±12%) and the control group (NBT stain, 76±9%; histology 72.4±12%). Cariporide treatment in group 1 and group 2 significantly improved functional recovery after 24 hours of reperfusion.

Conclusions—Myocardial protection by cariporide is predominantly achieved by NHE inhibition during ischemia and not during early reperfusion.
