Arrhythmia is a quivering or irregular heartbeat that can often lead to blood clots, stroke, heart failure, and other heart-related complications. The limited efficacy and safety of antiarrhythmic drugs require the design of new compounds. Previous research indicated that pyrrolidin-2-one derivatives possess an affinity for α1-adrenergic receptors. The blockade of α1-adrenoceptor may play a role in restoring normal sinus rhythm; therefore, we aimed to verify the antiarrhythmic activity of novel pyrrolidin-2-one derivative S-75. In this study, we assessed the influence on sodium, calcium, potassium channels, and β1-adrenergic receptors to investigate the mechanism of action of S-75. Lack of affinity for β1-adrenoceptors and weak effects on ion channels decreased the role of these adrenoceptors and channels in the pharmacological activity of S-75. Next, we evaluated the influence of S-75 on normal ECG in rats and isolated rat hearts, and the tested derivative did not prolong the QTc interval, which may confirm the lack of the proarrhythmic potential. We tested antiarrhythmic activity in adrenaline-, aconitine- and calcium chloride-induced arrhythmia models in rats. The studied compound showed prophylactic antiarrhythmic activity in the adrenaline-induced arrhythmia, but no significant activity in the model of aconitine- or calcium chloride-induced arrhythmia. In addition, S-75 was not active in the model of post-reperfusion arrhythmias of the isolated rat hearts. Conversely, the compound showed therapeutic antiarrhythmic properties in adrenaline-induced arrhythmia, reducing post-arrhythmogen heart rhythm disorders, and decreasing animal mortality. Thus, we suggest that the blockade of α1-adrenoceptor might be beneficial in restoring normal heart rhythm in adrenaline-induced arrhythmia.

In a review article based on my own clinical experience of managing patients with acute myocardial injury and fulminant myocarditis, taking into account expert recommendations on the clinical treatment of myocardial damage associated with novel coronavirus infection a National clinical geriatric medical research center, division of cardiovascular diseases, the Chinese geriatrics society, Department of cardiology, Beijing Medical Association and European clinics discusses the pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of myocardial damage and FM patients, infected with SARS-CoV-2 in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Clinical features and diagnostic criteria are presented, including screening tests of markers of myocardial damage in the form of a highly sensitive troponin test, a natriuretic peptide. The article discusses in detail the pathogenesis and mechanisms of myocardial damage, including immune mechanisms, cytokine storm, systemic inflammation with macro- and microvascular dysfunction and the development of myocardial dysfunction with acute heart failure, hypotension, cardiogenic shock and/or life-threatening heart rhythm disorders caused by hypoxia and metabolic disorders at the cellular level. Features of the clinical course of fulminant myocarditis in infected patients (SARS-CoV-2) in the conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic are presented. For the first time, a detailed histo-morphological analysis of pathological myocardial injuries and complications is presented on the basis of unique autopsy material on post-mortem diagnostics of various pathoanatomic autopsies of those who died from COVID-19 in Moscow. Based on the clinical, functional and morphological material, the Protocol of etiopathogenetic treatment is presented. The basis of standard therapy is considered antiviral drugs, immunoglobulin G, the use of monoclonal antibodies to interleukin-6, anticoagulants, glucocorticoids, depending on the clinical situation, cardioprotectors and symptomatic treatment are recommended to maintain the heart, which in combination can achieve a certain clinical effectiveness. As adjuvant cardioprotective targeted therapy, the sodium salt of phosphocreatine is considered in order to preserve the myocardium, maintain its contractility and vital activity.

A novel dual lumen aortic cannula was designed and constructed to permit independent perfusion of left and right coronary beds in isolated rat hearts without necessitating the cannulation of individual arteries. Stability of the dual-perfusion preparation was shown to be similar to that of the conventional Langendorff preparation, in terms of coronary flow, heart rate, and high-energy phosphate content. The independence of left and right perfusion beds was confirmed by unilateral infusion of disulfine blue dye and spectrophotometric detection of the dye in ventricular homogenates. Transient cessation of flow to the left coronary bed resulted in severe ventricular arrhythmias upon reperfusion, as in conventional models of regional ischemia and reperfusion. The dual-perfusion model is technically undemanding, reproducible, inexpensive, and can be used in several species. It enables studies with 1) regional low flow ischemia, 2) regional zero-flow ischemia without coronary ligation (with attendant damage to vasculature), 3) selective application of drugs or interventions to the ischemic-reperfused zone, and 4) selective application of components of ischemia and reperfusion to a site anatomically relevant to ischemic heart disease.

Extracellular ATP is known to augment cardiac contractility by increasing intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in cardiomyocytes; however, the status of ATP-mediated Ca2+ mobilization in hearts undergoing ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) has not been examined previously. In this study, therefore, isolated rat hearts were subjected to 10–30 min of global ischemia and 30 min of reperfusion, and the effect of extracellular ATP on [Ca2+]i was measured in purified cardiomyocytes by fura-2 microfluorometry. Reperfusion for 30 min of 20-min ischemic hearts, unlike 10-min ischemic hearts, revealed a partial depression in cardiac function and ATP-induced increase in [Ca2+]i; no changes in basal [Ca2+]i were evident in 10- or 20-min I/R preparations. On the other hand, reperfusion of 30-min ischemic hearts for 5, 15, or 30 min showed a marked depression in both cardiac function and ATP-induced increase in [Ca2+]i and a dramatic increase in basal [Ca2+]i. The positive inotropic effect of extracellular ATP was attenuated, and the maximal binding characteristics of 35S-labeled adenosine 5′-[γ-thio]triphosphate with crude membranes from hearts undergoing I/R was decreased. ATP-induced increase in [Ca2+]i in cardiomyocytes was depressed by verapamil and Cibacron Blue in both control and I/R hearts; however, this response in I/R hearts, unlike control hearts, was not affected by ryanodine. I/R-induced alterations in cardiac function and ATP-induced increase in [Ca2+]i were attenuated by treatment with an antioxidant mixture and by ischemic preconditioning. The observed changes due to I/R were simulated in hearts perfused with H2O2. The results suggest an impairment of extracellular ATP-induced Ca2+ mobilization in I/R hearts, and this defect appears to be mediated through oxidative stress.
