STUDY OBJECTIVE--The aim was to compare the effects of two novel angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, spirapril and zofenopril, on cardiac remodelling in rats with congestive heart failure after myocardial infarction. Spirapril contains no sulphydryl group, whereas zofenopril is a sulphydryl containing ACE inhibitor. DESIGN--Experimental myocardial infarction was induced by ligation of the left coronary artery. Sham operated animals served as controls. Treatment with spirapril (2-2.5 mg.kg-1.d-1) or zofenopril (12-15 mg.kg-1.d-1) added to the drinking water was started immediately after myocardial infarction or sham operation and continued for six weeks. After the treatment period, all rats were killed. The heart was rapidly removed and perfused as described by Langendorff. Heart rate and left ventricular pressure were measured both at baseline and during stimulation with isoprenaline (6 nM). Heart and lung weights were determined. SUBJECTS--Normotensive male Wistar rats (220-240 g) were used. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS--Experimental myocardial infarction considerably increased left ventricular cavity volume. Chronic treatment with either spirapril or zofenopril significantly attenuated this increase in volume. In infarcted rats, the increase in total heart and lung weight was also significantly reduced by chronic treatment with spirapril and zofenopril, indicating that these compounds reduce cardiac mass and pulmonary congestion in congestive heart failure due to myocardial infarction. There were no significant differences between treatment with spirapril and zofenopril. In the isolated and perfused rat heart, myocardial infarction significantly decreased both heart rate and left ventricular pressure. Converting enzyme inhibition only affected heart rate. Heart rate was significantly higher in infarcted animals treated with spirapril and zofenopril than in untreated infarcted animals. CONCLUSIONS--Both spirapril and zofenopril attenuated ventricular enlargement and cardiac hypertrophy in rats with congestive heart failure after myocardial infarction when treatment was started in the acute phase of myocardial infarction. No additional role could be attributed to the sulphydryl moiety of zofenopril. It is also suggested that these two ACE inhibitors modify cardiac sympathetic activity in rats with congestive heart failure, but more studies are needed to confirm these findings. 相似文献

STUDY OBJECTIVE--The aim of the study was to investigate the problem of pharmacological tolerance to nitrate therapy in congestive heart failure, using an animal model. DESIGN--The effects of chronic glyceryl trinitrate infusions were studied in a rat model of congestive heart failure, induced by myocardial infarction, wherein surgical procedures have been developed to permit continuous monitoring of ventricular pressures in conscious animals for up to 4-5 d. SUBJECTS--male Sprague-Dawley rats were used, weight 300-325 g, n = 3-7 per experiment. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS--Glyceryl trinitrate infusion (18 micrograms.kg-1.min-1) in rats with congestive heart failure caused by a 28.5(SEM 3.5)% infarction induced a rapid fall in left ventricular end diastolic pressure from 12.0(0.8) mm Hg to a peak effect of 5.5(0.6) mm Hg within 30 min (n = 7), but rapid attenuation developed beginning about 4 h after the start of the infusion. Complete abolition of the haemodynamic effects of glyceryl trinitrate was observed after 8 h of infusion. After a 12 h wash out period, responsiveness to a new infusion of glyceryl trinitrate (same dose) was restored. Withdrawal of nitrovasodilator dose led to rapid return to baseline left ventricular end diastolic pressure values. Infusion of vehicle to control animals (infarct size not different from treatment group) caused no haemodynamic effects. CONCLUSIONS--The haemodynamic changes caused by glyceryl trinitrate resemble those seen in man and suggest a possible use for this animal model in examining the mechanisms of nitrate action and tolerance. 相似文献

Survival after an experimental myocardial infarction: beneficial effects of long-term therapy with captopril 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
Although vasodilator therapy has been shown to improve functional capacity in patients with congestive heart failure, there is no evidence that such therapy can prolong survival. Coronary artery ligation in the rat was used to produce a wide range of myocardial infarct sizes and a resultant spectrum of left ventricular dysfunction. To determine the relationship between size of myocardial infarction and long-term survival and to test the hypothesis that long-term therapy with captopril could improve survival after myocardial infarction, 302 rats were randomly assigned to either placebo or captopril therapy 14 days after coronary artery ligation. The animals were kept in a laminar flow unit and followed daily for a 1 year period or until spontaneous death. Size of myocardial infarction was determined by planimetry of serial histologic sections of the left ventricle. One year survival in placebo-treated rats decreased markedly in direct relation to increasing size of infarction (from 71% in noninfarcted rats to only 8% in rats with large infarcts). Long-term captopril therapy prolonged the survival of rats with infarcts (p less than .02). The most marked improvement in survival was noted in the animals with infarcts of moderate size, in which 1 year survival was 21% in the placebo-treated rats and 48% in the captopril-treated rats. Thus, in this experimental preparation of myocardial infarction and left ventricular dysfunction, survival was inversely related to size of infarction. Long-term therapy with captopril, which we had previously shown to improve left ventricular function and lessen dilatation in the chronic phase of infarction, also had a pronounced effect on prolonging survival in this preparation of chronic infarction. 相似文献

The authors experienced 4 cases of calcified postinfarction aneurysm of the left ventricle. They were all male, aged 55 to 71 (mean 64). Risk factor for coronary artery disease was only smoking in 2 patients, but there was none in the others. They had had acute anteroseptal or extensive anterior infarction at age 41-57 years (mean 49.3), and associated major cardiac events 10-22 years (mean 14.5) after acute myocardial infarction. Ventricular tachycardia, congestive heart failure and systemic thromboembolism were seen in 4, 2 and 1 patients respectively. However, none developed angina pectoris. In the 2 patients in whom signal-averaged electrocardiogram was performed, late potential was detected, so it was suspected that ventricular tachycardia could be due to reentry. Left ventricular end-diastolic pressure was elevated in all patients except one and ranged from 11 to 22 mmHg. Left ventricle was dilated in all cases and the end-diastolic volume index ranged from 143 to 503 ml/m2. The left ventricular ejection fraction ranged from 11 to 24%. However, in 2 of the 4 patients, the cardiac index was within normal limits, and evidence of congestive heart failure was absent. In 2 other patients with associated congestive heart failure, cardiac indices were 2.32, 1.56 l/min/m2 respectively. Coronary arteriogram showed a total occlusion in the left anterior descending (LAD) artery in all cases, and only the LAD artery was affected in 2 patients. In the remaining 2 patients, the right coronary arteries also were significantly stenotic or totally occluded, i.e., they had 2-vessel disease.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

To determine whether acute left ventricular failure associated with myocardial infarction leads to architectural changes in the spared nonischemic portion of the ventricular wall, large infarcts were produced in rats, and the animals were sacrificed 2 days after surgery. Left ventricular end-diastolic pressure was increased, whereas left ventricular dP/dt and systolic pressure were decreased, indicating the presence of severe ventricular dysfunction. Absolute infarct size, determined by measuring the fraction of myocyte nuclei lost from the left ventricular free wall, averaged 63%. Transverse midchamber diameter increased by 20%, and wall thickness diminished by 33%. The number of mural myocytes in this spared region of the left ventricular free wall decreased by 36% and the capillary profiles by 40%. Thus, side-to-side slippage of myocytes in the myocardium occurs acutely in association with ventricular dilation after a large myocardial infarction. In order to analyze the chronic consequences of myocardial infarction on ventricular remodeling, a second group of experiments was performed in which the left coronary artery was ligated and the functional and structural properties of the heart were examined 1 month later. In infarcts affecting an average 38% of the free wall of the left ventricle (small infarcts), reactive hypertrophy in the spared myocardium resulted in a complete reconstitution of functioning tissue. However, left ventricular end-diastolic pressure was increased, left ventricular dP/dt was decreased, and diastolic wall stress was increased 2.4-fold. After infarctions resulting in a 60% loss of mass (large infarcts), a 10% deficit was present in the recovery of viable myocardium. Functionally, ventricular performance was markedly depressed, and diastolic wall stress was increased 9-fold. The alterations in loading of the spared myocardium were due to an increase in chamber volume and a decrease in the myocardial mass/chamber volume ratio that affected both infarct groups. Thus, decompensated eccentric ventricular hypertrophy develops chronically after infarction and growth processes in myocytes are inadequate for normalization of wall stress when myocyte loss involves nearly 40% or more of the cells of the left ventricular free wall. The persistence of elevated myocardial and cellular loads may sustain the progression of the disease state toward end-stage congestive heart failure. 相似文献

Left ventricular myocardial hypertrophy was found in patients with repeated myocardial infarctions, the greatest weight of the left ventricle being noted in those with congestive heart failure. A high correlation (r = 0.78) was established between the mass of the left ventricular myocardium calculated with the aid of echocardiography and the actual weight of the left ventricle. The important compensatory role of the ventricular septum is emphasized for the cases of myocardial infarction occurring in the free wall of the left ventricle. Left ventricular hypertrophy was detected by ECG in only 25% of those ischaemic heart disease cases in whom signs of myocardial hypertrophy were revealed by echocardiography. 相似文献

Urinary cyclic guanosine monophosphate as an indicator of experimental congestive heart failure in rats 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

STUDY OBJECTIVE--The aim was to investigate the relationship between urinary cyclic guanosine monophosphate (GMP) excretion and activation of the heart endocrine function in two rat models of cardiac failure. DESIGN--Left ventricular infarction and aging in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) are two models that could lead to congestive heart failure. In the first the degree of failure depends on the length of the infarcted area. In the second the degree of failure depends on time. Urinary cyclic GMP, plasma atrial natriuretic factor (ANF), and degree of congestive heart failure were evaluated in both models. EXPERIMENTAL ANIMALS--31 male Wistar rats were used for myocardial infarction and sham operated controls. Spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) rats (2, 6, 12 and 24 months old, n = 10 per group) were used for the age overload studies. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS--In myocardial infarction, the amount of left ventricular ANF mRNA, plasma ANF concentration, and urinary cyclic GMP excretion were correlated and were proportional to the degree of cardiac failure, as assessed by the increase in right ventricular mass and the decrease in blood pressure. In male SHR (aged 6-24 months), plasma ANF and urinary cyclic GMP were correlated, increased with age, and were proportional to the heart to body weight ratio. These correlations between plasma ANF, daily urinary cyclic GMP excretion, and left ventricular hypertrophy persisted in two year old SHR. The presence of pleural extravasation in these old animals was also characterised by significant increases in both plasma ANF and urinary cyclic GMP. The plasma ANF and the daily urinary cyclic GMP excretion were negative prognostic indicators of life expectancy in two year old SHR. CONCLUSIONS--Urinary cyclic GMP excretion, correlated with the plasma ANF level, is a non-invasive indicator of congestive heart failure in two models of overloaded left ventricle in rats. 相似文献
