ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Dexmedetomidine (DEX), a highly selective α2-adrenoceptor agonist, can decrease the incidence of arrhythmias, such as catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). However, the underlying mechanisms by which DEX affects cardiac electrophysiological function remain unclear.METHODS:
Ryanodine receptor (RyR2) heterozygous R2474S mice were used as a model for CPVT. WT and RyR2R2474S/+ mice were treated with isoproterenol (ISO) and DEX, and electrocardiograms were continuously monitored during both in vivo and ex vivo experiments. Dual-dye optical mapping was used to explore the anti-arrhythmic mechanism of DEX.RESULTS:
DEX significantly reduced the occurrence and duration of ISO-induced of VT/VF in RyR2R2474S/+ mice in vivo and ex vivo. DEX remarkably prolonged action potential duration (APD80) and calcium transient duration (CaTD80) in both RyR2R2474S/+ and WT hearts, whereas it reduced APD heterogeneity and CaT alternans in RyR2R2474S/+ hearts. DEX inhibited ectopy and reentry formation, and stabilized voltage-calcium latency.CONCLUSION:
DEX exhibited an antiarrhythmic effect through stabilizing membrane voltage and intracellular Ca2+. DEX can be used as a beneficial perioperative anesthetic for patients with CPVT or other tachy-arrhythmias.Palabras clave
