Enzyme release from perfused rat heart was determined under various conditions of injury. In analogous experiments, intracellular cation concentrations were measured using ion-selective microelectrodes. Under appropriate conditions, the inhibition of mitochondrial and/or glycolytic ATP production led to a decrease in the release of enzymes. During ischaemia or the oxygen paradox, the sarcosolic Ca2+ concentration was highly elevated; reperfusion or reoxygenation was followed by a drastic enzyme release. This was also found to be true under the conditions of an increased permeability brought about by a reduced extracellular Ca2+ concentration of 0.1 mmol/l. The intracellular pH under all conditions of injury was only moderately decreased. The sarcosolic Na+ concentration was markedly increased whereas the K+ concentration was decreased. The critical Ca2+ concentration of the sarcosol beyond which cell damage and enzyme release are inducible was assumed to be in the range between 10 and 32 mumol/l. The driving force of the Na+/Ca2+ exchange reaction of the sarcolemma is discussed in relation to recovery from hypoxic injury and the potential for avoiding cell damage.
