'''Reperfusion injury''' refers to damage to [[tissue (biology)|tissue]] caused when [[blood]] supply returns to the tissue after a period of [[ischemia]].  The absence of [[oxygen]] and [[nutrient]]s from blood creates a condition in which the restoration of [[circulatory system|circulation]] results in [[inflammation]] and [[oxidation|oxidative]] damage through the induction of [[oxidative stress]] rather than restoration of normal function.


==Mechanisms of reperfusion injury==
==[[Reperfusion injury overview|Overview]]==
The damage of reperfusion injury is due in part to the [[inflammatory response]] of damaged tissues.  [[White blood cell]]s carried to the area by the newly returning blood release a host of [[cytokine|inflammatory factors]] such as [[interleukin]]s as well as [[reactive oxygen species|free radicals]] in response to tissue damage
<ref name="WMClark">{{cite web | last = Clark | first = Wayne M. | title = Reperfusion Injury in Stroke | work = eMedicine | publisher = WebMD  | date = January 5, 2005 | url = http://www.emedicine.com/neuro/topic602.htm | accessdate = 2006-08-09 }}</ref>.The restored blood flow reintroduces oxygen within [[cell (biology)|cell]]s that damages cellular [[protein]]s, [[DNA]], and the [[plasma membrane]].  Damage to the cell's membrane may in turn cause the release of more free radicals. Such reactive species may also act indirectly in [[redox signaling]] to turn on [[apoptosis]].  Leukocytes may also build up in small [[capillary|capillaries]], obstructing them and leading to more ischemia<ref name="WMClark" />. 


Mitochondrial dysfunction plays an important role in reperfusion injury.  While the mitochondrial membrane is usually impermeable to ions and metabolites, ischemia alters permeability by elevating intro-mitochondrial calcium concentrations, reducing [[adenine]] nucleotide concentrations, and causing oxidative stress.  This primes the mitochondrial permeability transition pore ([[Mitochondrial permeability transition|MPTP]]), which opens when reperfusion occurs<ref name="pmid14962470">{{cite journal |author=Halestrap AP, Clarke SJ, Javadov SA |title=Mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening during myocardial reperfusion--a target for cardioprotection |journal=Cardiovasc. Res. |volume=61 |issue=3 |pages=372–85 |year=2004 |month=February |pmid=14962470 |doi=10.1016/S0008-6363(03)00533-9 |url=}}</ref>. This leads to an increased osmotic load into the mitochondrial body causing swelling and rupture, release of mitochondrial proteins which stimulate apoptosis.  Mithochondrial function is disrupted and [[ATP]] is hydrolyzed, leading to the activation of degradative enzymes.  Finally, excessive [[Poly ADP ribose polymerase]]-1 (PARP-1) activation impairs the function of other organelles and accelerates the production of reactive oxygen species<ref name="pmid12782201">{{cite journal |author=Zingarelli B, O'Connor M, Hake PW |title=Inhibitors of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase modulate signal transduction pathways in colitis |journal=Eur. J. Pharmacol. |volume=469 |issue=1-3 |pages=183–94 |year=2003 |month=May |pmid=12782201 |doi= |url=}}</ref>.
==[[Reperfusion injury pathophysiology|Pathophysiology]]==


In prolonged ischemia (60 minutes or more), [[hypoxanthine]] is formed as breakdown product of [[Adenosine triphosphate|ATP]] metabolism. The enzyme ''[[xanthine dehydrogenase]]'' is converted to ''[[xanthine oxidase]]'' as a result of the higher availability of oxygen. This oxidation results in molecular oxygen being converted into highly reactive [[superoxide]] and [[hydroxyl]] [[Radical (chemistry)|radicals]].  Xanthine oxidase also produces [[uric acid]],  which may act as both a prooxidant and as a scavenger of reactive species such as peroxinitrite.  Excessive [[nitric oxide]] produced during reperfusion reacts with [[superoxide]] to produce the potent reactive species [[peroxynitrite]].  Such radicals and reactive oxygen species attack cell membrane lipids, proteins, and glycosaminoglycans, causing further damage.  They may also initiate specific biological processes by [[redox signaling]].
==[[Reperfusion injury risk factors|Risk Factors]]==


==Specific organs affected by reperfusion injury==
==[[Reperfusion injury natural history|Natural History, Complications & Prognosis]]==
===The central nervous system===
Reperfusion injury plays a part in the [[brain]]'s [[ischemic cascade]], which is involved in [[stroke]] and [[brain trauma]].  Repeated bouts of ischemia and reperfusion injury also are thought to be a factor leading to the formation and failure to [[wound healing|heal]] of [[chronic wound]]s such as [[pressure sore]]s and [[diabetic foot]] [[ulcer]]s<ref name="TMustoe">{{cite journal | author=Mustoe T. | title=Understanding chronic wounds: a unifying hypothesis on their pathogenesis and implications for therapy | journal=AMERICAN JOURNAL OF SURGERY | volume=187 | issue=5A | year=2004 | pages=65S-70S | id=PMID 15147994}}</ref>.  Continuous pressure limits blood supply and causes ischemia, and the inflammation occurs during reperfusion.  As this process is repeated, it eventually damages tissue enough to cause a [[wound]]<ref name="TMustoe" />.


===The myocardium===
==Treatment==
Restoration of epicardial patency can be associated with reperfusion injury in the myocardium.  This can manifest in a number of ways clinically, including arrhythmia, microvascular dysfunction, myocardial stunning, and myocyte death.
'''[[Reperfusion injury medical therapy|Medical Therapy]]'''


Arrhythmia is mediated by mitochondrial dysfunction, as discussed above.  The mitochondrion is unable to restore its inner membrane potential, leading to destabalization of the action potential<ref name="pmid16284648">{{cite journal |author=Akar FG, Aon MA, Tomaselli GF, O'Rourke B |title=The mitochondrial origin of postischemic arrhythmias |journal=J. Clin. Invest. |volume=115 |issue=12 |pages=3527–35 |year=2005 |month=December |pmid=16284648 |pmc=1280968 |doi=10.1172/JCI25371 |url=}}</ref>.
'''[[Reperfusion injury future or investigational therapies|Future or Investigational Therapies]]'''


Microvascular dysfunction, or "no reflow," as well as myocardial stunning, are both possible consequences of reperfusion injury.  Myocardial stunning, which results from persistent anearobic metabolism that continues after reperfusion, may to some extent be mediated by impaired microvascular function<ref name="pmid8629581">{{cite journal |author=Iliceto S, Galiuto L, Marchese A, ''et al.'' |title=Analysis of microvascular integrity, contractile reserve, and myocardial viability after acute myocardial infarction by dobutamine echocardiography and myocardial contrast echocardiography |journal=Am.

An area of ongoing study is how much damage, or myocyte death, is attributable to ischemia vs. reperfusion injury after vessel patency has been established.  Animal studies suggest that up to 50% of of infarct size can be related to reperfusion injury<ref name="pmid9498544">{{cite journal |author=Matsumura K, Jeremy RW, Schaper J, Becker LC |title=Progression of myocardial necrosis during reperfusion of ischemic myocardium |journal=Circulation |volume=97 |issue=8 |pages=795–804 |year=1998 |month=March |pmid=9498544 |doi= |url=}}</ref><ref name="pmid8609356">{{cite journal |author=Arai M, Lefer DJ, So T, DiPaula A, Aversano T, Becker LC |title=An anti-CD18 antibody limits infarct size and preserves left ventricular function in dogs with ischemia and 48-hour reperfusion |journal=J. Am. Coll. Cardiol. |volume=27 |issue=5 |pages=1278–85 |year=1996 |month=April |pmid=8609356 |doi= |url=}}</ref>.  This opens the door for novel therapies that can attenuate myocyte death due to reperfusion injury.
 
==Therapies==
While many pharmacotherapies are successful in limiting reperfusion injury in animal studies or ex-vivo, many have failed to improve clinical outcomes in randomized clinical trials in patients.

===Therapies Associated with Improved Clinical Outcomes===
 
Therapies that have been associated with improved clinical outcomes include:
 
#Post conditioning (short repeated periods of vessel opening by repeatedly blowing the balloon up for short periods of time).<ref name="pmid18268150">{{cite journal |author=Thibault H, Piot C, Staat P, ''et al'' |title=Long-term benefit of postconditioning |journal=Circulation |volume=117 |issue=8 |pages=1037–44 |year=2008 |month=February |pmid=18268150 |doi=10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.107.729780 |url=http://circ.ahajournals.org/cgi/pmidlookup?view=long&pmid=18268150}}</ref><ref name="pmid20448097">{{cite journal| author=Ovize M, Baxter GF, Di Lisa F, Ferdinandy P, Garcia-Dorado D, Hausenloy DJ et al.| title=Postconditioning and protection from reperfusion injury: where do we stand?

#*Mechanisms of protection include formation and release of several autacoids and cytokines, maintained acidosis during early repercussion, activation of protein kinases, and attenuation of opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP)
#*One study in humans demonstrated an area under the curve (AUC) of creatine kinase (C) release over the first 3 days of reperfusion (as a surrogate for infarct size) was significantly reduced by 36% in the postconditioned versus control group<ref name="pmid16186417">{{cite journal| author=Staat P, Rioufol G, Piot C, Cottin Y, Cung TT, L'Huillier I et al.| title=Postconditioning the human heart. | journal=Circulation | year= 2005 | volume= 112 | issue= 14 | pages= 2143-8 | pmid=16186417 | doi=10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.105.558122 | pmc= | url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=16186417  }} </ref>

#Inhibition of mitochondrial pore opening by cyclosporine. <ref name="pmid18669426">{{cite journal |author=Piot C, Croisille P, Staat P, ''et al'' |title=Effect of cyclosporine on reperfusion injury in acute myocardial infarction |journal=N. Engl. J. Med. |volume=359 |issue=5 |pages=473–81 |year=2008 |month=July |pmid=18669426 |doi=10.1056/NEJMoa071142 |url=http://content.nejm.org/cgi/pmidlookup?view=short&pmid=18669426&promo=ONFLNS19}}</ref>
#*Specifically, the study by Piot et al demonstrated that administration of cyclosporine at the time of reperfusion was associated with a reduction in infarct size
#*Infarct size was measured by the release of creatine kinase and delayed hyperenhancement on MRI
#*Patients with cardiac arrest, ventricular fibrillation, cardiogenic shock, stent thrombosis, previous acute myocardial infarction, or angina within 48 hours before infarction were not included in the study #*Occlusion of the culprit artery (TIMI flow 0) was part of the inclusion criteria.
 
Limitations to applying strategies that have demonstrated benefit in animal models is the fact that reperfusion therapy was administered prior to or at the time of reperfusion.  In the management of STEMI patients, it is impossible to administer the agent before vessel occlusion (except during coronary artery bypass grafting).  Given the time constraints and the goal of opening an occluded artery within 90 minutes, it is also difficult to administer experimental agents before reperfusion in STEMI. 
 
There are several explanations for why trials of experimental agents have failed in this area:
#The therapy was administered after reperfusion and after reperfusion injury had set in
#The greatest benefit is observed in anterior ST elevation myocardial infarctions (as demonstrated in the AMISTAD study), and inclusion of non anterior locations minimizes the potential benefit
#There are uninhibited reduncant pathways mediating reperfusion injury
#Inadequate dosing of the agent
