We evaluated the effects of angiotensin-(1-7) (Ang-(1-7)) on post-ischemic function in isolated hearts from adult male Wistar rats perfused according to the Langendorff technique. Local ischemia was induced by coronary ligation for 15 min. After ischemia, hearts were reperfused for 30 min. Addition of angiotensin 11 (Ang II) (0.20 nM, N = 10) or Ang-(1-7) (0.22 nM, N = 10) to the Krebs-Ringer perfusion solution (KRS) before the occlusion did not modify diastolic or systolic tension, heart rate or coronary flow (basal values for Ang(1-7)-treated hearts: 0.72 +/- 0.08 g, 10.50 +/- 0.66 g, 216 +/- 9 bpm, 5.78 +/- 0.60 ml/min, respectively). During the period of occlusion, the coronary flow, heart rate and systolic tension decreased (values for Ang-(1-7)-treated hearts: 2.83 +/- 0.24 ml/min, 186 +/- 7 bpm, 6.95 +/- 0.45 g, respectively). During reperfusion a further decrease in systolic tension was observed in control (4.95 +/- 0.60 g) and Ang II-treated hearts (4.35 +/- 0.62 g). However, in isolated hearts perfused with KRS containing Ang-(1-7) the further reduction of systolic tension during the reperfusion period was prevented (7.37 +/- 0.68 g). The effect of Ang-(1-7) on the systolic tension was blocked by the selective Ang(1-7) antagonist A-779 (2 nM, N = 9), by the bradykinin B(2) antagonist HOE 140 (100 nM, N = 10), and by indomethacin pretreatment (5 mg/kg, ip, N = 8). Pretreatment with L-NAME (30 mg/kg, ip, N = 8) did not change the effect of Aug-(1-7) on systolic tension (6.85 +/- 0.61 g). These results show that Ang-(1-7) at low concentration (0.22 nM) improves myocardial function (systolic tension) in ischemia/reperfusion through a receptor-mediated mechanism involving release of bradykinin and prostaglandins.
