SUMMARY. Recently, L. Costa et al. reported the direct detection of the superoxide anion and other paramagnetic species in the isolated, adriamycin-perfused rat heart [L. Costa et al. (1988) &&em. Biophys. Res. Commun. 153, 275-2801. We have reevaluated the results of their study and concluded that the ESR parameters of the spectrum obtained from the adriamycin-perfused heart are consistent with that of the peroxyl radical and not with that of the superoxide anion. In addition, the ESR spectrum of the peroxyl radical is very likely produced as an artifact caused by the grinding of myocardial tissue. This artifact may mask the ESR spectra of the adriamycin-derived semiquinone radical and the iron-sulfur protein components of myocardium. 0 1990 Academic

METHODS

Isolated Heart Model. Adult Sprague Dawley rats, maintained on a standard diet, were used for this study. Anesthesia was induced and maintained with Halothane (4% and l-2%, respectively), following which the right femoral vein was exposed and Heparin (150 IU/kg) a d ministered intravenously. After 1 min., the chest was opened via median sternotomy and the pericardium removed. The aorta and inferior vena cavae were isolated, and the heart was rapidly excised and placed in ice-cold perfusion medium. After 30 sec., the aorta was attached to a stainless steel cannula, the pulmonary artery wes incised to permit adequate coronary drainage, and the heart was perfused by the method of Langendorff 1341 a t a p er f usion pressure equivalent to 12kPa (90 mm Hg). A three-way tap, located immediately above the site of cannulation, allowed the entire perfusate to be diverted away from the heart to produce global, no-flow ischemia. Rectal temperature in the rat was found to be 37’ C. Normothermic perfusion w&s, therefore, carried out with perfusate at this temperature. The heart and perfusion fluids were kept in temperature-controlled chambers to maintain the myocardial temperature at the desired level. During all periods of ischemia, the heart was immersed in the perfusion medium used to infuse the coronary network. Perfusion Medium. The standard perfusion fluid was Krebs-Henseleit composition: 118.5 mM NaCl/25.0 mM NaHCOJ4.8 mM KCl/I.2 when gassed with 95% 0,/5% CO,) in which the calcium content 11.1 mM glucose.

Tissue Preparation. Immediately after mounting on the cannula, hearts (n = 8 per group) were perfused aerobically for a 10 min. equilibration period. Hearts (ta = 8 per group) were then subjected to a 10 min. period of normothermic global ischemia. At the end of each perfusion period, hearts were freeze-clamped between stainless steel tongs (Biomedix, Elm Grove, WI) previously cooled to the temperature of liquid nitrogen. Frozen ventricular tissue was then processed for spectroscopic analysis by two separate methods. The first method of tissue processing involved grinding the frozen tissue to a fine powder using a stainless steel pestle and mortar (Biomedix) immersed in a liquid nitrogen bath. The fine powder was transferred under liquid nitrogen to a precision ESR tube (inside diameter, 3 mm; length, 30 mm) by placing the tube within the well of the mortar and dispensing the powdered tissue into the ESR tube with a spatula. The ESR tube was then immediately transferred to the lumen of a Dewar flask pre-cooled to the temperature of liquid nitrogen. The second method of tissue processing entailed chopping the wafer of frozen tissue under liquid nitrogen with a stainless steel spatula to produce small fragments (= 2 mm cubes). These fragments were immediately transferred to the lumen of a Dewar flask pre-cooled to the temperature of liquid nitrogen. Sample sizes with the two methods were approximately equal. All flasks containing the processed heart tissue were then placed in the resonance chamber of the spectrometer. Low-Temperature ESR metabolism of adriamycin

for ESR analysis consisted of adriamycin (100 @vi), xanthine (400 PM), and xanthine oxidase (0.1 unit) in 2 mL phosphate buffer (100 mM, pH 7.5 ). Incubations were prepared in duplicate. Immediate!y after detecting the ESR spectra of the adriamycin semiquinone or adriamycin aglycone at room temperature, frozen icicles (3-4 cm) of the same incubation mixture were prepared and supported in the lumen of a finger Dewar filled with liquid nitrogen.

ESR Spectroscopy. ESR spectra from all samples were recorded at the temperature of liquid nitrogen using a Varian E-109 spectrometer at 9.5 GHz and lOO-kHz field modulation. Magnetic field measurements were determined by using a Radiopan M.I-110 gaussmeter, and microwave frequency was measured by using an EiP 200 frequency counter. Hyperfine splitting was measured to 0.05 G directly from the magnetic field separations. All g value derivations were obtained from measurements of magnetic field and microwave frequency after correcting for the position of the gaussmeter probe.
