Hoe 694, a new Na+/H + exchange inhibitor and its effects in cardiac ischaemia

Hoe 694, a new Na+/H + exchange inhibitor and its effects in cardiac ischaemia 1 The benzoylguanidine derivative Hoe 694 ((3‐methylsulphonyl‐4‐piperidino‐benzoyl) guanidine methanesulphonate) was characterized as an inhibitor of Na+/H+ exchange in rabbit erythrocytes, rat platelets and bovine endothelial cells.

Abstract

1 The benzoylguanidine derivative Hoe 694 ((3‐methylsulphonyl‐4‐piperidino‐benzoyl) guanidine methanesulphonate) was characterized as an inhibitor of Na+/H+ exchange in rabbit erythrocytes, rat platelets and bovine endothelial cells. The potency of the compound was slightly lower or comparable to ethylisopropyl amiloride (EIPA). 2 To investigate a possible cardioprotective role of the Na+/H+ exchange inhibitor Hoe 694, rat isolated working hearts were subjected to ischaemia and reperfusion. In these experiments all untreated hearts suffered ventricular fibrillation on reperfusion. Addition of 10−7 m Hoe 694 to the perfusate almost abolished reperfusion arrhythmias in the rat isolated working hearts. 3 Hoe 694 reduced the release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine kinase (CK), which are indicators of cellular damage during ischaemia, into the venous effluent of the hearts by 60% and 54%, respectively. 4 The tissue content of glycogen at the end of the experiments was increased by 60% and the high energy phosphates ATP and creatine phosphate were increased by 240% and 270% respectively in the treated hearts as compared to control hearts. 5 Antiischaemic effects of the Na+/H+ exchange inhibitor, Hoe 694, were investigated in a second experiment in anaesthetized rats undergoing coronary artery ligation. In these animals, pretreatment with Hoe 694 caused a dose‐dependent reduction of ventricular premature beats and ventricular tachycardia as well as a complete suppression of ventricular fibrillation down to doses of 0.1 mg kg−1, i.v. Blood pressure and heart rate remained unchanged. 6 We conclude that the new Na+/H+ exchange inhibitor, Hoe 694, shows cardioprotective and antiarrhythmic effects in ischaemia and reperfusion in rat isolated hearts and in anaesthetized rats. In view of the role which Na+/H+ exchange seems to play in the pathophysiology of cardiac ischaemia these effects could probably be attributed to Na+/H+ exchange inhibition.
