Problems related to infarct size measurements in the rat heart.

The feasibility of measuring the extent of hypoperfused myocardium and the infarct size was examined in rat hearts after occlusion of the left coronary artery. The extent of hypoperfused myocardium was examined by autoradiography and after perfusion with fluorescent microspheres. Both methods appeared unreliable in this model. Triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining, however, provided a distinct demarcation line between viable myocardium, which was stained red, and the necrotic myocardium, consistent with the ultrastructural border between normal and severely damaged myocytes 5 h after coronary occlusion. TTC staining gives the best demarcation of ischemic tissues. In verapamil-treated rats, there was an apparent reduction in infarct size as compared with untreated rats; 20% reduction in infarct size 5 h after coronary occlusion and 12% reduction after 24 h. There was, however, a large postoperative mortality among the verapamil-treated rats. These problems, and the nonuniform infarct size in rats, may in part explain why infarct size limitation by verapamil has been reported from rat experiments, but not from clinical trials.     

Decrease of myocardial infarct size with desferrioxamine: possible role of oxygen free radicals in its ameliorative effect

The ability of an iron chelator, desferrioxamine, to inhibit the infarct size in in vivo rat heart was assessed. Anaesthetised rats were subjected to coronary artery ligation (CAL) for 72 hr and infarct size was measured macroscopically using TTC staining. Systolic blood pressure and ECG were monitored. Desferrioxamine (10 mg/kg and 20 mg/kg i.v.) administered half an hour after CAL markedly reduced the infarct size. However, drug treatment did not alter the systolic blood pressure of animals. In addition, desferrioxamine in vitro and in vivo demonstrated an inhibition of rat PMN-evoked and luminol-enhanced chemiluminiscence. The capacity of desferrioxamine to impair the generation or to scavenge directly oxygen free radicals may be responsible for its beneficial effect on myocardial infarct size in rats.     

A new technique of coronary artery ligation: Experimental myocardial infarction in rats in vivo with reduced mortality

In vivo models of myocardial infarction following coronary artery ligation in the rat still suffer from high early mortality and a low rate of success of myocardial infarction. This study investigated the possibility of reducing early mortality and increasing the rate of myocardial infarction by modifications of surgical techniques. Eighteen rats were divided into two groups: normal control (3 rats) and ligation (15 rats). The major modifications of surgical techniques used in this study include: (1) no exteriorization of the heart, (2) ligation of the origins of the branches rather than the main trunk of the left coronary artery, (3) removal of air from the chest after closure, (4) supplying oxygen immediately after extubation. Following surgery, the rats recovered uneventfully and 11 rats were alive after 16 weeks. One rat, with a large myocardial infarction, died 2 h after surgery. Early mortality (during surgery and 1 week after surgery) was 6.7% with a success rate of myocardial infarction of 85%. The left ventricle in the ligation group showed significant dilation relative to normal and shamoperated control hearts (317% of control hearts, p < 0.001). However, myocardial mass did not increase. The average infarct size was 33%. These results demonstrate that a reduction in early mortality and an increased success rate of myocardial infarction can be achieved by modifications of surgical techniques.     

Hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning alleviates myocardial ischemic injury in rats

It has been shown that after ischemia-reperfusion, application of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) reduces cardiac injury. In this study we tested the hypothesis that HBO preconditioning reduces injury to the ischemic myocardium. One hundred and eight adult male Sprague-Dawley rats (250-280 g) were randomly divided into four groups: normoxia + sham surgery (CS), normoxia + permanent occlusion of the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery (CMI), HBO preconditioning + sham surgery (HS), and HBO preconditioning + permanent LAD occlusion (HMI). Rats receiving HBO preconditioning were intermittently exposed to 100% O(2) at 2.5 atmosphere absolute (ATA) for 60 min, twice daily for 2 days followed by 12 hrs of recovery in room air prior to the myocardial ischemic insult induced by LAD ligation. Rats in the normoxia group were time-matched with the HBO group and maintained under normoxic conditions prior to LAD occlusion. At 3 and 7 days after LAD occlusion, heart function parameters were measured by inserting a catheter into the left ventricle, infarct size was calculated using the method of TTC staining, myocardial capillary density was determined by immunohistochemical staining with a monoclonal anti-CD(31)/PECAM-1 antibody, and VEGF protein level was determined by Western blot analysis. At 3 days after LAD ligation, the infarct size of the HMI group was significantly smaller than that of the CMI group (26 +/- 2.5% vs. 38 +/- 3%, P < 0.05). The heart function parameters including left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP), +dP/dt(max) and -dP/dt(max) were significantly improved in the HMI group compared to the CMI group at 3 and 7 days after LAD occlusion. Capillary density and VEGF protein levels were significantly increased in the ischemic myocardium pre-exposed to HBO. We conclude that HBO preconditioning alleviates myocardial ischemia in rat model.     

The effects of gender and obesity on myocardial tolerance to ischemia

Obesity is increasing at an alarming rate globally. Several studies have shown that premenopausal women have a reduced risk of CV disease and a reduced myocardial susceptibility to ischemia/reperfusion injury. The effect of obesity on myocardial tolerance to ischemia in women has not been established. To determine how obesity affects myocardial susceptibility to ischemia/reperfusion injury in both males and females, we fed male and female Wistar rats a high caloric diet (HCD) or a control rat chow diet (CD) for 18 weeks. Rats were subsequently fasted overnight, anesthetized and blood was collected. In separate experiments, 18-week-fed (HCD and CD) rats underwent 45 min in vivo coronary artery ligation (CAL) followed by 2 hours reperfusion. Hearts were stained with TTC and infarct size determined. Both male and female HCD fed rats had increased body and visceral fat weights. Homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) index values were 13.95+/-3.04 for CD and 33.58+/-9.39 for HCD male rats (p<0.01) and 2.98+/-0.64 for CD and 2.99+/-0.72 for HCD fed female rats. Male HCD fed rats had larger infarct sizes than CD fed littermates (43.2+/-9.3 % vs. 24.4+/-7.6 %, p<0.05). Female HCD and CD diet fed rats had comparable infarct sizes (31.8+/-4.3 % vs. 23.9+/-3.3 %). We conclude that male rats on the HCD became viscerally obese, dyslipidemic and insulin-resistant, while female HCD fed rats became viscerally obese without developing dyslipidemia or insulin resistance. Obesity increased myocardial infarct size in males but not the females.     

高同型半胱氨酸血症对心肌梗死后心肌组织中SCF表达的影响

Penehyclidine Hydrochloride Preconditioning Provides Cardioprotection in a Rat Model of Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury

To investigate the impacts and related mechanisms of penehyclidine hydrochloride (PHC) on ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced myocardial injury. A rat model of myocardial I/R injury was established by the ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery for 30 min followed by 3 h perfusion. Before I/R, the rats were pretreated with or without PHC. Cardiac function was measured by echocardiography. The activities/levels of myocardial enzymes, oxidants and antioxidant enzymes were detected. Evans blue/TTC double staining was performed to assess infarct size. Cardiomyocyte apoptosis was evaluated by TUNEL assay. The release of inflammatory cytokines and inflammatory mediators was detected by ELISA. Western blot was performed to analyze the expression of COX-2, IκB, p-IκB and NF-κB. Meanwhile, the rats were given a single injection of H-PHC before I/R. The effects of PHC on myocardial infarct and cardiac function were investigated after 7 days post-reperfusion. We found that PHC remarkably improved cardiac function, alleviated myocardial injury by decreasing myocardial enzyme levels and attenuated oxidative stress in a dose-dependent manner. Additionally, PHC preconditioning significantly reduced infarct size and the apoptotic rate of cardiomyocytes. Administration of PHC significantly decreased serum TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and PGE₂ levels and myocardium COX-2 level. Meanwhile, the expression levels of p-IκB and NF-κB were downregulated, while IκB expression was upregulated. H-PHC also exerted long-term cardioprotection in a rat model of I/R injury by decreasing infarct size and improving cardiac function. These results suggest that PHC can efficiently protect the rats against I/R-induced myocardial injury.
