Metabolic interventions improve performance during demand-induced ischemia by reducing myocardial lactate production and improving regional systolic function. We tested the hypotheses that 1) stimulation of glycolysis would increase lactate production and improve ventricular wall motion, and 2) the addition of fatty acid oxidation inhibition would reduce lactate production and further improve contractile function. Measurements were made in anesthetized open-chest swine hearts. Three groups, hyperglycemia (HG), HG + oxfenicine (HG + Oxf), and control (CTRL), were treated under aerobic conditions and during demand-induced ischemia. During demand-induced ischemia, HG resulted in greater lactate production and tissue lactate content but had no significant effect on glucose oxidation. HG + Oxf significantly lowered lactate production and increased glucose oxidation compared with both the CTRL and HG groups. Myocardial energy efficiency was greater in the HG and HG + Oxf groups under aerobic conditions but did not change during demand-induced ischemia. Thus enhanced glycolysis resulted in increased energy efficiency under aerobic conditions but significantly enhanced lactate production with no further improvement in function during demand-induced ischemia. Partial inhibition of free fatty acid oxidation in the presence of accelerated glycolysis increased energy efficiency under aerobic conditions and significantly reduced lactate production and enhanced glucose oxidation during demand-induced ischemia.

Neutrophils exacerbate pulmonary ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) resulting in poor short and long-term outcomes for lung transplant recipients. Glycolysis powers neutrophil activation, but it remains unclear if neutrophil-specific targeting of this pathway will inhibit IRI. Lipid nanoparticles containing the glycolysis flux inhibitor 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG) were conjugated to neutrophil-specific Ly6G antibodies (NP-Ly6G[2-DG]).

In failing hearts, coronary flow is normal, but the coronary flow reserve (CFR) is reduced, so demand-induced ischemia (DII) may occur in response to greater demand for O(2). The objectives of this study were: (i) to verify that dobutamine stimulation produces DII in isolated rat hearts having, like failing hearts, increased left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) and hence reduced CFR and (ii) to study the effects of stimulation of glucose oxidation and of inhibition of fatty acid oxidation in this new model of DII. Isolated rat hearts perfused with 11 mM glucose and 0.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates whether hibernating myocardium can withstand chronic ischemia better than normal heart tissue.
- Results showed that hibernating heart tissue had lower levels of ATP and other high-energy phosphates at baseline compared to normal myocardium, but it experienced less ATP depletion and reduced mitochondrial respiration during simulated ischemia.
- These findings suggest that even with contractile dysfunction, hibernating myocardium is tolerant to ischemic conditions, helping to maintain cell viability despite lower energy levels.

Normally, brain tissue copes with negative oxygen balance by increasing cerebral blood flow (CBF). We examined the effects of increasing oxygen demand, by inducing spreading depression (SD) under various oxygen balance states, on brain O2 balance. The Tissue Vitality Monitoring System was used, which enables real time simultaneous in vivo monitoring of CBF, mitochondrial NADH and tissue HbO2 from the same region of the cerebral cortex.

The benefits of inhibition of fatty acid oxidation (FOX) and stimulation of glucose oxidation (GOX) in ischemia are controversial. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of the FOX inhibitor CVT-4325 on the rates of FOX, GOX, myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO2), and cardiac efficiency in the absence and presence of palmitate during demand-induced ischemia of the rodent isolated hearts. Palmitate concentration-dependently increased FOX, decreased GOX, and increased MVO2.
