BACKGROUND Sphingosine kinase (SKase) has been implicated in the protection of hearts from ischemia/reperfusion injury. This hypothesis was further examined. MATERIAL/METHODS Changes in SKase activity and cardiac function (left ventricular developed pressure, LVDP, and infarct size) in response to ischemia and reperfusion were studied in adult rat hearts by the ex vivo Langendorff method. Following initial equilibration or preconditioning, there was 45 min no-flow ischemia and then 45 min of reperfusion. RESULTS SKase activity declined 61% during ischemia and did not recover upon reperfusion. LVDP also did not recover upon reperfusion and the infarct size was 47%. A short 30 min period of ischemia was associated with variable recovery of SKase activity that directly correlated with LVDP recovery. Preconditioning of hearts reduced the decrease in SKase activity during ischemia by half, and upon reperfusion activity returned to normal. The LVDP recovered 79% and infarct size was small. Preconditioned hearts had higher S-1-P levels after ischemia/reperfusion relative to non-preconditioned hearts. The decline in SKase activity during ischemia of preconditioned hearts could not be mimicked in vitro by treatment with protein phosphatases. Attempts to alter activity of SKase from control, preconditioned, ischemic, or reperfused hearts by phosphorylation with ERK1/2 were unsuccessful. Treatment of non-preconditioned hearts at reperfusion with 100 nM S-1-P improved recovery of LVDP. The SKase inhibitor dimethylsphingosine blocked hemodynamic recovery in preconditioned hearts. CONCLUSIONS The data support a role for SKase activity in recovery of hemodynamic function after ischemic injury and also in the cardioprotective effect of preconditioning.
