The canonical Ca2+-activated BK (or maxi-K) channel SLO1 was dispensable for both mitochondrial K+ transport and APC in both organisms. Instead, we found that the related but physiologically-distinct K+ channel SLO2 was required, and that SLO2-dependent mitochondrial K+ transport was brought on directly by volatile anesthetics. In addition, a SLO2 channel activator mimicked the protective effects of volatile anesthetics. These findings suggest that SLO2 contributes to protection from hypoxic injury by increasing the permeability of the mitochondrial inner membrane to K+. Introduction Biological systems contain endogenous mechanisms for protection against stress. In particular, protection against ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury is thought to proceed via opening of mitochondrial K+ channels [1]. Several cardioprotective strategies require such channels, and channel opening alone is sufficient to induce protection [2], [3]. For example, the protection by ischemic preconditioning involves the mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K+ (mKATP) channel and activation of the channel is usually cardioprotective [2], [3], [4]. Similarly, volatile anesthetics protect the heart against IR injury, in a phenomenon termed anesthetic preconditioning (APC) [5], [6]. APC is usually evolutionarily conserved from to mammals [7], and is potentially of clinical importance [6]. The precise mechanisms of APC remain elusive, although mitochondrial Ca2+ activated K+ channels have been proposed as mediators [8]. The canonical cell surface area large-conductance, big K+ (BK) route can be coded for from the gene in worms and by the (gene in worms and by two genes ((in addition has been determined, its expression is fixed to mammalian spermatozoa [14]. The purpose of this research was to mix the energy of genetics with mouse center physiology and isolated mitochondrial assays, to research the relative contribution of SLO2 and SLO1 to mBK underlying APC. Right here, we present proof assisting an evolutionarily conserved part for SLO2 in facilitating mitochondrial K+ transportation resulting in APC.
