Regional changes in hemodynamics and cardiac myocyte size in rats with aortocaval fistulas. 2. Long-term effects

Regional changes in hemodynamics and cardiac myocyte size were examined in adult rats 5 months after creating a large aortocaval fistula. At that time, cardiac output, left and right ventricular pressures, and left and right ventricular dP/dtmax were measured. Subsequently, isolated cardiac myocytes were collected from the left ventricle, right ventricle, and septum for cell size measurements. Compared with sham-operated controls, percent dry weight was reduced in the liver and kidney but was unchanged in the lung. Heart rate, left ventricular systolic pressure, left ventricular dP/dtmax, and systolic aortic pressure were not changed in rats with fistulas. However, cardiac output, stroke volume, left ventricular end-diastolic pressure, and all measured parameters in the right ventricle were significantly increased. Mean cell volume and the ratio of heart weight to body weight were both elevated 92%. Cell volume, cell length, and cross-sectional area increased significantly in each heart region examined. Hypertrophy was more pronounced in cells from the right ventricle and the endomyocardium of the left ventricle. The percentage of cells with mononucleation or binucleation was not changed in any heart region of rats with fistulas. In summary, despite evidence of renal and hepatic congestion, most indexes of cardiac function were normal or elevated 5 months after creation of a large volume-overload-induced hypertrophy. Data from isolated cardiac myocytes suggested that cellular hypertrophy, rather than hyperplasia, was responsible for the increased cardiac mass.

Effect of captopril on the prevention and regression of myocardial cell hypertrophy and interstitial fibrosis in pressure overload cardiac hypertrophy.

This article reports on the effects of captopril on both the prevention and the regression of myocardial cell hypertrophy and interstitial fibrosis in experimental animals (rats) with pressure overloaded hearts. Constriction of the abdominal aorta just below the diaphragm during periods of 20 days (prevention experiment) and 40 days (regression experiment) resulted in hypertension and cardiac hypertrophy. In the prevention experiment, captopril was able to inhibit the development of high blood pressure levels and cardiac hypertrophy in aortic-constricted rats. Similarly, the treatment of sham-operated rats with captopril led to a reduction in the weight of the heart and in the myocyte diameter compared with controls. The myocyte volume fraction of the left ventricles of both aortic-constricted and sham-operated animals that were treated with captopril was significantly diminished compared with that of the control group. The interstitial collagen volume fraction of all experimental groups was elevated as compared with the control group. As a consequence, the ratios of myocytes to interstitial collagen in groups of aortic-constricted rats, aortic-constricted rats that were treated with captopril, and sham-operated rats that were treated with captopril were reduced compared with the control group; that is, although captopril was able to prevent myocardial cell hypertrophy after aortic constriction, it could not prevent the maintenance of a normal ratio of myocytes to interstitial collagen, which was due to increased collagen volume fraction. In the regression experiment, captopril lowered high blood pressure levels and augmented heart weights to control values. The mean myocyte transverse diameter in aortic-constricted rats that were treated with captopril was significantly smaller than that of controls.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Induction of cardiac nitric oxide synthase 2 in rats exposed to chronic hypoxia.

Induction of nitric oxide synthase (NOS2, also designated as iNOS) in the heart is known to occur in response to various stimuli. It is not known, however, whether in vivo hypoxia leads to cardiac NOS2 induction. We thus investigated the effects of normobaric hypoxia (10% O(2)for 8, 15 and 21 days) on NOS2 protein expression and enzyme activity in rat right ventricle (RV) and left ventricle (LV). Chronic hypoxia induced RV hypertrophy: the RV weight to body weight ratio was increased by 45% upon 15 days of exposure, with no change thereafter and no change in left ventricular (LV) weight. Treatment of hypoxic rats with l -NAME for 1 month decreased pulmonary artery pressure and RV hypertrophy compared to hypoxic non-treated rats. NOS2 activity detected by [(3)H]l -arginine to [(3)H]l -citrulline conversion increased in RV during hypoxia, with a maximum at 15 days (+161% of control rats P<0.05), whereas it increased less (by 60%) in LV. In parallel, after 15 days of hypoxia there was a three-fold increase in NOS2 protein abundance detected by Western blotting using an isoform-specific antibody in the RVs (two-fold increase in the LV). Immunochemistry with the specific antibody demonstrated the expression in cardiomyocytes isolated from both ventricles of normoxic and hypoxic rats. Protein kinase C (PKC) content and activity was unchanged in LV of hypoxic rats, but increased in RV as compared with normoxic rats. These results clearly show that, in the heart, NOS2 is upregulated by hypoxia with an expression in cardiomyocytes of both ventricles. In addition, NOS2 is more inducible in the right hypertrophied ventricle than in the left non-hypertrophied hypoxic ventricle.     

Endothelin system-dependent cardiac remodeling in renovascular hypertension

The aim of the present study was to analyze whether the cardiac endothelin system contributes to cardiac remodeling in rats with 2-kidney, 1 clip (2K1C) renovascular hypertension. The endothelin system seems to be a promising candidate for cardiac remodeling because endothelin (ET)-1 promotes growth of cardiomyocytes in vitro and induces cardiac collagen synthesis. The activity of the cardiac endothelin system was analyzed by measuring cardiac tissue big ET-1 and ET-1 concentrations as well as by estimating the cardiac expression of the ETA and ETB receptors 10 days, 4 weeks, and 12 weeks after the renal artery was clipped. The effects of long-term treatment with ETA, ETB, and combined ETA/ETB receptor antagonists on cardiac hypertrophy, media/lumen ratio of intracardiac arteries, and left ventricular fibrosis were also analyzed. This study demonstrated that the overall left ventricular cardiac endothelin system has a similar activity in the early, middle, and late stages of 2K1C renovascular hypertension compared with sham-operated controls. Fibrosis of the left ventricle and hypertrophy of intracardiac arteries, however, were markedly altered after long-term treatment with endothelin receptor antagonists in a blood pressure-independent manner. These 2 effects are mediated by different subtypes of endothelin receptors. ETA receptor blockade completely normalized the hypertrophy of intracardiac arteries (P<0. 01 compared with 2K1C without treatment) in renovascular hypertension, whereas the ETB antagonist reduced cardiac fibrosis of the left ventricle (P<0.001 compared with 2K1C without treatment) to baseline values. This study demonstrates that the cardiac endothelin system plays an important role in the development of cardiac fibrosis as well as in hypertrophy of intracardiac arteries in 2K1C renovascular hypertensive rats.     

The effect of growth hormone on rat myocardial collagen.

Growth hormone (GH) can increase cardiac performance, but conditions with GH excess, such as acromegaly, are associated with hypertrophy and fibrosis of the heart. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of GH administration on rat myocardial collagen.Female rats were injected with GH (5 mg/kg/day) for 80 days. The weight of the right ventricle (RV) and the left ventricle (LV) was increased in the GH-treated group compared with the control group (P< 0.001). No differences in the ratio of heart weight/body weight or ventricle weight/body weight were found. The total amount of RV and LV collagen was increased in the GH-treated group (P< 0.001), but the collagen concentration was decreased (P< 0.001). Histomorphometry showed that the area fraction of collagen relative to myocytes remained unchanged. The composition of ventricular collagen in the GH-injected group did not differ from that of the control group concerning the relative amounts of collagen types I and III and pyridinoline, a mature collagen cross-link.We conclude that GH induced a substantial, but proportionate growth of the myocardium without formation of fibrosis. GH actually decreased the collagen concentration, and did not change the composition of myocardial collagen.
