We have previously demonstrated an importance of endothelin-1 in diabetic patients undergoing bypass surgery. Recent evidence suggests that cardiomyocytes might also produce endothelin-1, which might directly impair myocyte contractility by increasing intracellular calcium levels. Because hyperglycemia is a potent stimulus of endothelin-1 production, we hypothesized that increased production, action, or both of endothelin-1 might be a mediator of direct cardiomyocyte injury in diabetes. Therefore we studied the effects of endothelin receptor blockers (BQ-123 and bosentan) on hyperglycemia-induced endothelin-1 production and cellular injury after ischemia-reperfusion.
