Opioids confer biphasic (early and late) cardioprotection against myocardial infarction by opening mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K+ channels. It is unknown whether cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), which mediates ischemia-induced late preconditioning, also mediates opioid-induced cardioprotection. Isolated perfused rat hearts were subjected to 20 min of global ischemia followed by 20 min of reperfusion. BW-373U86 (BW), a delta-opioid receptor agonist, was administered 1, 12, or 24 h before death. Recovery of left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP) after ischemia-reperfusion improved when BW was administered I or 24 h before ischemia (control: 57 +/- 8, BW 1 h: 75 +/- 5, BW 24 h: 85 +/- 6%) but not when it was administered 12 h before (60 +/- 5%). Levels of 6-keto-PGF(1alpha) (a stable metabolite of PGI(2)) in coronary effluent after 20 min of reperfusion were higher with 24-h BW pretreatment than in controls (1,053 +/- 92 vs. 724 +/- 81 pg/ml), whereas 6-keto-PGF(1alpha) levels at baseline did not differ. Administration of a selective COX-2 inhibitor, NS-398, abolished the late phase of cardioprotection (recovery of LVDP, 53 +/- 8%) and attenuated the increase in PGI(2) (706 +/- 138 pg/ml) but did not block the early phase of cardioprotection. The selective COX-1 inhibitor SC-560 did not affect either phase of protection. Western immunoblotting revealed upregulation of PGI(2) synthase protein 24 h after BW administration without changes in COX-1 and COX-2 protein levels. In conclusion, the late (but not the early) phase of delta-opioid receptor-induced preconditioning is mediated by COX-2. A functional coupling between COX-2 and upregulated PGI(2) synthase appears to underlie this cardioprotective phenomenon in the rat.
