Efficacy of zoniporide, an Na/H exchange ion inhibitor, for reducing perioperative cardiovascular events in vascular surgery patients.
To determine whether a novel Na+/H+ exchange ion inhibitor, zoniporide, is associated with reduced perioperative myocardial ischemic injury in high-risk surgery patients.. Randomized double-blind placebo-controlled multidose trial.. Multicenter worldwide (105 centers) trial.. Patients with known or multiple risk factors for coronary artery disease undergoing noncardiac vascular surgery.. Four parallel groups received 1 of 3 doses of zoniporide or placebo, delivered as a 60-minute loading dose immediately before surgery, and followed by a continuous intravenous infusion for up to 7 days.. A total of 824 subjects were randomized into the study from 105 centers worldwide. Of these, 784 subjects received study drug infusion in the 3-mg/kg/d, 6-mg/kg/d, and 12-mg/kg/d groups and the placebo group, and 769 satisfied the criteria for the primary efficacy analysis population. This is 68% of the planned sample size of 1125 subjects. Anesthetic management and perioperative cardiac medications were at the discretion of the attending anesthesiologists, surgeons, and cardiologists. The proportion of subjects who experienced the composite endpoint event (death, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, arrhythmia) by postsurgical day 30 was 18.5% in the 12-mg/kg/d group, compared with 15.7% in the placebo group, resulting in a relative risk (RR) of 1.17% (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.80-1.72; p = NS) favoring placebo. The proportions in the lower 2 zoniporide dose groups were slightly lower than in the placebo group, although the sample size is inadequate to reach any firm conclusions.. The results fail to demonstrate the efficacy of zoniporide in reducing the proportion of patients at high risk undergoing noncardiac vascular surgery who experience a composite cardiovascular endpoint, which led the corporate sponsor to stop enrollment early on the basis of a futility analysis of the chance of demonstrating efficacy with a larger sample size.

Effects of Zoniporide and BMA-1321 Compound on the Rate of Oxygen Absorption by Cardiomyocyte Mitochondria in Rats with Experimental Chronic Heart Failure.
Uncoupling of respiration and ATP production by myocardial mitochondria was observed in rats with chronic isoproterenol intoxication (L-isoproterenol subcutaneously, 1 mg/kg, for 10 days) in comparison with controls (injected with the solvent). Inhibitors of NHE-1 zoniporide (1 mg/kg intraperitoneally, 13 days) and BMA-1321 compound (0.92 mg/kg intraperitoneally, 13 days) improved the mitochondrial function in rats with isoproterenol-induced cardiac failure: respiratory control coefficients increased, more so for the respiratory chain complex II, the main source of ROS in heart failure. The effect of BMA-1321 was more manifest (53%; p<0.05) in comparison with zoniporide (35%; p<0.05).

Increasing the tolerance of DCD hearts to warm ischemia by pharmacological postconditioning.
Donation after circulatory death (DCD) offers a potential additional source of cardiac allografts. We used a porcine asphyxia model to evaluate viability of DCD hearts subjected to warm ischemic times (WIT) of 20–40 min prior to flushing with Celsior (C) solution. We then assessed potential benefits of supplementing C with erythropoietin, glyceryl trinitrate and zoniporide (Cs), a combination that we have shown previously to activate ischemic postconditioning pathways. Hearts flushed with C/Cs were assessed for functional, biochemical and metabolic recovery on an ex vivo working heart apparatus. Hearts exposed to 20-min WIT showed full recovery of functional and metabolic profiles compared with control hearts (no WIT). Hearts subjected to 30- or 40-min WIT prior to C solution showed partial and no recovery, respectively. Hearts exposed to 30-min WIT and Cs solution displayed complete recovery, while hearts exposed to 40-min WIT and Cs solution demonstrated partial recovery. We conclude that DCD hearts flushed with C solution demonstrate complete recovery up to 20-min WIT after which there is rapid loss of viability. Cs extends the limit of WIT tolerability to 30 min. DCD hearts with ≤30-min WIT may be suitable for transplantation and warrant assessment in a transplant model.

Paradoxical resistance to myocardial ischemia and age-related cardiomyopathy in NHE1 transgenic mice: a role for ER stress?
Sarcolemmal Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (NHE) activity, which is provided by the NHE isoform 1 (NHE1), has been implicated in ischemia/reperfusion-induced myocardial injury in animal models and humans, on the basis of studies with pharmacological NHE1 inhibitors. We generated a transgenic (TG) mouse model with cardiac-specific over-expression of NHE1 to determine whether this would be sufficient to increase myocardial susceptibility to ischemia/reperfusion-induced injury. TG mouse hearts exhibited increased sarcolemmal NHE activity and normal morphology and function. Surprisingly, they also showed reduced susceptibility to ischemia/reperfusion-induced injury, as reflected by improved functional recovery and smaller infarcts. Such protection was sustained in the presence of NHE1 inhibition with zoniporide, indicating a mechanism that is independent of sarcolemmal NHE activity. Immunoblot analysis revealed accumulation of immature NHE1 protein as well as marked upregulation of both cytoprotective (78/94 kDa glucose-regulated proteins, calreticulin, protein disulfide isomerase) and pro-apoptotic (C/EBP homologous protein) components of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response in TG myocardium. With increasing age, NHE1 TG mice exhibited increased myocyte apoptosis, developed left ventricular contractile dysfunction, underwent cardiac remodelling and died prematurely. Our findings indicate that: (1) Cardiac-specific NHE1 over-expression induces the ER stress response in mouse myocardium, which may afford protection against ischemia/reperfusion-induced injury despite increased NHE activity; (2) Ageing NHE1 TG mice exhibit myocyte apoptosis, cardiac remodelling and failure, likely as a result of sustained ER stress; (3) The pluripotent effects of the ER stress response may confound studies that are based on the chronic over-expression of complex proteins in myocardium.
