The degree and duration of chemical hypoxia induced by sodium dithionite (Na2S2O4) have not been reported. It is not yet clear how much reduction in the O-2 concentration (physical hypoxia) can lead to hypoxia in cultured cardiomyocytes. In this study, oxygen microelectrodes were used to measure changes in the O-2 concentration in media containing different concentrations of Na2S2O4. Then, hypoxic effects of 0.8, 1.0, and 2.0 mM Na2S2O4 or 1%, 3%, and 5% O-2 in cultured cardiomyocytes from neonatal rats were observed and compared. The results showed that the O-2 concentration failed to remain constant by Na2S2O4 treatment during the 180-minute observation period. Only the 2.0 mM Na2S2O4 group significantly increased the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1 alpha) and hypoxic responses. Notably, 3% O-2 only significantly increased the expression of HIF-1 alpha in cardiomyocytes, while 1% O-2 not only increased the expression of HIF-1 alpha but also increased the apoptotic rate in cardiomyocytes. These results suggest that Na2S2O4 is not suitable for establishing a hypoxic model in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, and neonatal rat cardiomyocytes cultured at or below 1% O-2 induced significant hypoxic effects, which can be used as a starting O-2 concentration for establishing a hypoxic cell model.
