Free radical generation was studied by the electron spin resonance (ESR) technique using alpha-phenyl N tert butyl nitrone (PBN) in a brief ischemia-reperfusion model of the canine heart, and correlated with biochemical changes of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). ESR spectra (aH=0.3-0.4mT, aN=1.43-1.58mT) were observed as PBN spin adducts, which peaked at levels 5-fold above the control levels at 5 min after reperfusion. The simulated coupling constants of PBN spin adducts suggested that the sample should contain at least 2 carbon-centered radicals at 5 min after reperfusion (radical A: aH=0.350mT, aN=1.485mT; radical B: aH=0.370mT, aN=1.615 mT). At this time point, a significant reduction in Ca-ATPase activity of the SR was found without degradation of the major ATPase protein. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) significantly reduced the intensity of the PBN spin adduct signals and preserved the Ca-ATPase activity of the SR to 80% of the control level. Reperfusion injury after brief ischemia may be the result of inactivation of intracellular Ca-ATPase by free radicals generated during reperfusion, and SOD contributes to the protective effect by scavenging the radicals.
