Manganese (Mn) dipyridoxyl diphosphate (MnDPDP) is the active component of a contrast medium for liver MRI. By being metabolized, MnDPDP releases Mn2+, which is taken up and retained in hepatocytes. The study examined whether MnDPDP elevates Mn content and enhances proton relaxivity in normal myocardium, but not in ischemic myocardium with reduced coronary how and impaired metabolism. Isolated guinea pig hearts were perfused at normal flow or low flow, inducing global subtotal ischemia. Ventricular ATP and Mn contents, T-1 and T-2 were measured. At normal flow tissue Mn content increased from the control level of 4.1 to 70.4 mu mol/100g dry wt with MnDPDP (3000 mu M), while low-flow perfusion with MnDPDP (3000 mu M) resulted in a Mn content of 16.6 mu mol/100 g dry wt. Prolonged ischemia (35 and 90 min) reduced tissue Mn down to the control level. T-1 shortening closely paralleled myocardial Mn elevations during both normal and low-flow perfusion. The use of a Mn2+-releasing contrast agent like MnDPDP may be a promising principle in MRI assessments of myocardial function and viability in coronary heart disease by revealing a differential pattern of changes in T-1 relative to coronary flow, cell Mn uptake and retention, ion channel function and metabolism.
