title: Pharmacological intervention in oxidant-induced calcium pump dysfunction of dog heart.
abstract: Micromolar concentrations of HOCl, an oxidant produced by activated neutrophils, inhibited Ca2+ uptake and Ca2+ATPase of isolated dog heart sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). DTT antagonized completely the HOCl effect only when it was given within 5 min after the addition of HOCl. When the pharmacological intervention was delayed, the recovery with DTT was not complete, and administration of DTT 30 min after the start of HOCl's reaction with SR resulted in only a small improvement in SR Ca2+ uptake. Although H2O2 and Fe ion-chelate (a free radical-generating procedure) also inhibited Ca2+ uptake and ATPase, the concentrations required were very large. The response of cardiac sarcolemmal and skeletal muscle SR calcium pumps to oxidants was similar to that of the cardiac SR calcium pump.
