2. Fig 1
Changes in LVW (ΔLVW, a) and myocardial efficiency (ΔME, b). IR, hearts exposed to ischaemia–reperfusion; SEVO+IR, hearts exposed to ischaemia–reperfusion and treated with 2 vol% sevoflurane before and after ischaemia; PROP100+IR, hearts exposed to ischaemia–reperfusion and treated with 100 µM propofol before and after ischaemia; INTRA100+IR, the corresponding Intralipid control group. Complete haemodynamic data were obtained for six hearts in each group except for IR and INTRA100+IR with only five hearts (also see Supplementary Table S1). Complete metabolic data were obtained in six hearts of each group except for IR and SEVO+IR with five hearts and INTRA+IR with four hearts. P-values were computed using non-parametric tests.

Intracellular Ca2+ concentrations at the end of ischaemia (a) and at the end of reperfusion (diastolic, b; systolic, c; and transient amplitude, d) in untreated hearts (IR, n=5) or in hearts that were exposed to sevoflurane (2 vol%, SEVO+IR, n=6), propofol (100 µM, PROP100+IR, n=6), or Intralipid (INTRA100+IR, n=5). P-values were computed using non-parametric tests.

Changes in rates of GOX (ΔGOX, a), FOX (ΔFOX, b), and acetyl-CoA production (c) during reperfusion in untreated hearts (IR, n=5) or in hearts that were exposed to sevoflurane (2 vol%, SEVO+IR, n=5), propofol (100 µM, PROP100+IR, n=6), or Intralipid (INTRA100+IR, n=4). P-values were computed using non-parametric tests.

Regression plots with 95% confidence intervals for correlations between changes in GOX rates and peak Ca2+ concentrations during ischaemia (a: R=0.851; standard error of estimate=0.087), changes in diastolic (b: R=0.847; standard error of estimate=0.088), and systolic (c: R=0.800; standard error of estimate=0.099) Ca2+ concentrations for untreated hearts (IR) or for hearts exposed to sevoflurane (2 vol%, SEVO+IR).

GLUT4 expression, AMPK, and PDH activities in untreated hearts (IR) or in hearts exposed to sevoflurane (2 vol%, IR+SEVO). (a) Representative western blots (n=5 per group) of GLUT4 expression in lipid rafts and quantification to flotillin. (b) Representative western blots of AMPK and activity estimated from the ratio of pAMPK and total AMPK. α-Actin was used as a loading control (n=4 for each group). (c) PDH activity calculated as active over total PDH (n=5 for each group). P-values were computed using Student's t-test or the Wilcoxon–Mann–Whitney test (WMW).
