Effect of morphine on the resistance of the heart to ischemia
Mošovská, Linda ; Neckář, Jan (advisor) ; Žurmanová, Jitka (referee)
2. Abstract Opioids are considered as dangerous and addictive substances, mainly due to synthetic opioids such as heroin. It was discovered, that these substances can play an important role in myocardial ischemia because they can limit the damage of the heart tissue that occurs during a heart attack. Since that heart attack is the most common cardiovascular disease, the protective effect is significant. Cardioprotective effect is mainly mediated through δ opioid receptors, but the few studies have shown cardioprotective effect mediated through κ opioid receptors. The protective effect occurs by activation of opioid receptors by their agonists (eg. morphine or TAN-67), either before ischemia (opioid preconditioning) or before reperfusion (opioid postconditioning). The signaling pathway of cardioprotection include mitochondrial KATP channel, Gi/o proteins, protein kinase C, tyrosine kinases and reactive oxygen species.

Cardiac ischemic tolerance of hypertensive rats
Jelínek, Jan ; Neckář, Jan (advisor) ; Sotáková, Dita (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to summarize current knowledge about the influence of the ischemic- reperfusion injury at the myocard of hypertensive subjects. First part of this thesis is focused on the description of ischemia, reperfusion and changes in the myocardial metabolism during these processes. These changes in the myocardial metabolism are for example necrosis or apoptosis of the myocardial cells. The second part describes the currently known cardioprotective phenomena. This part also compares their effects. The signalization of preconditioning, the second window of preconditioning and the postconditioning are described here in more details. Third part is focused on the description of the risk factors connected to the ICHS and hypertension. It describes also classes of hypertension, clinical and experimental methods of hypertension treatment, description of the laboratory breeds of hypertensive rats. In the last part of this thesis I describe the influence of hypertension on the I-R injury in current laboratory studies. In the most studies spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) were used. As a normotensive controls Wistar-Kyoto rats were mostly used. For some other experiments transgenic genetic rats (TGR) were used. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
