In recent experimental studies, blood platelets have been found to exhibit some cardiodepressive effects in ischemic and reperfused guinea pig hearts independent of thrombus formation. These effects seemed to be mediated by reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, the source of these ROS - platelets or heart - remained still unknown. Isolated, buffer-perfused and pressure-volume work performing guinea pig hearts were exposed to a low-flow ischemia (1 ml/min) of 30 min duration and reperfused at a constant flow of 5 ml/min. Human thrombocytes were administered as 1 min bolus (20 000 thrombocytes/mu l perfusion buffer) in the 15th min of ischemia or in the 1st or 5th min of reperfusion in the presence of thrombin (0.3 U/ml perfusion buffer). Recovery of external heart work (REHW) was expressed as ratio between postischemic and preischemic EHW in percent. Intracoronary platelet retention (RET) was quantified as percent of platelets applied. In a second set of experiments, thrombocytes were incubated with 10 mu M of the irreversible NADPH oxidase blocker diphenyliodonium chloride and washed twice, thereafter, and administered according to the same protocol as described above. Hearts exposed to ischemia and reperfusion in the presence of thrombin but without application of platelets served as controls. Controls without application of platelets did not reveal a severe compromisation of myocardial REHW 85.5 +/- 1%). However, addition of platelets during ischemia or in the 1st or 5th min of reperfusion led to a significant reduction of REHW as compared with controls (REHW 62.4 +/- 6, 53.9 +/- 3, 40.5 +/- 3, respectively). Application of platelets pretreated with diphenyliodonium chloride did not reveal any cardiodepressive effects being significantly different from controls without platelet application. Moreover, treatment of platelets with diphenyliodonium chloride did not significantly decrease intracoronary platelet retention. In conclusion, these results demonstrate that cardiodepressive effects of human thrombocytes in ischemic and reperfused guinea pig hearts are mediated by ROS released from thrombocytes and not the heart.
