1. The present study examined whether or not cilostazol reduces the myocardial infarct size, and investigated its mechanism in a rabbit model of myocardial infarction. 2. Japanese white rabbits underwent 30 min of coronary occlusion, followed by 48 h of reperfusion. Cilostazol (1 and 5 mg/kg) or vehicle was given intravenously 5 min before ischaemia. 8-p-sulfophenyl theophylline (8SPT; an adenosine receptor blocker, 7.5 mg/kg), N omega-nitro-L-arginine methylester (L-NAME; an NOS inhibitor, 10 mg/kg) or 5-hydroxydecanoic acid sodium salt (5-HD; a mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channel blocker, 5 mg/kg) was given intravenously 5 min before cilostazol injection. Infarct size was determined as a percentage of the risk area. 3. The myocardial interstitial levels of adenosine and nitrogen oxide (NOx) during ischaemia and reperfusion, and the intensity of myocardial dihydroethidium staining were determined. 4. Infarct size was significantly reduced in the cilostazol 1 mg/kg (38.4% (2.9%)) and cilostazol 5 mg/kg (30.7% (4.7%)) groups compared with that in the control group (46.5% (4.2%)). The infarct size-reducing effect of cilostazol was completely abolished by 8SPT (46.6% (3.5%)), L-NAME (49.0% (5.5%)), or 5HD (48.5% (5.1%)). 8SPT, L-NAME or 5HD alone did not affect the infarct size. Cilostazol treatment significantly increased myocardial levels of adenosine and NOx during ischaemia, and attenuated the intensity of dihydroethidium staining during reperfusion. 5. These findings show that cilostazol reduces the myocardial infarct size by increasing adenosine and NOx levels, attenuating superoxide production and opening the mitochondrial KATP channels. Cilostazol might provide a new strategy for the treatment of coronary heart disease.
