Depression in myocardial infarction patients is often a first episode with a late age of onset. Two studies that compared depressed myocardial infarction patients to psychiatric patients found similar levels of somatic symptoms, and one study reported lower levels of cognitive/affective symptoms in myocardial infarction patients. We hypothesized that myocardial infarction patients with first depression onset at a late age would experience fewer cognitive/affective symptoms than depressed patients without cardiovascular disease. Combined data from two large multicenter depression studies resulted in a sample of 734 depressed individuals (194 myocardial infarction, 214 primary care, and 326 mental health care patients). A structured clinical interview provided information about depression diagnosis. Summed cognitive/affective and somatic symptom levels were compared between groups using analysis of covariance, with and without adjusting for the effects of recurrence and age of onset. Depressed myocardial infarction and primary care patients reported significantly lower cognitive/affective symptom levels than mental health care patients (F (2,682) = 6.043, p = 0.003). Additional analyses showed that the difference between myocardial infarction and mental health care patients disappeared after adjusting for age of onset but not recurrence of depression. These group differences were also supported by data-driven latent class analyses. There were no significant group differences in somatic symptom levels. Depression after myocardial infarction appears to have a different phenomenology than depression observed in mental health care. Future studies should investigate the etiological factors predictive of symptom dimensions in myocardial infarction and late-onset depression patients.  相似文献

Studies were carried out on the metabolism of lipid peroxides and antioxidative enzymes during diabetes and diabetes superimposed with myocardial infarction. Diabetes was induced using alloxan and myocardial infarction was induced by isoproterenol. In the case of diabetic animals there was a decrease in the levels of lipid peroxides in the heart while in the case of diabetes associated with myocardial infarction it was slightly elevated. The activity of superoxide dismutase and catalase showed a decrease in both the groups. Glutathione showed a fall in the case of diabetes and diabetes associated with myocardial infarction while taurine in heart and ceruloplasmin in the serum was elevated. Histopathological changes in the heart tissue showed some focal changes in the case of both diabetes and diabetes associated with myocardial infarction, but the degree of necrosis was much less than in the case of myocardial infarction.  相似文献

The research aims were to test perception of arterial hypertension and myocardial infarction in hypertensive and normotensive men and women as well as to test perception of arterial hypertension and myocardial infarction as predictors of blood pressure control in hypertensives. In the research 470 subjects of 4 general practices from Rijeka, Croatia participated, hypertensive group from the list of hypertensive patients without cardiovascular complications and other major chronic conditions, normotensive group from the list of patients without chronic conditions. Each group had 235 subjects, 128 men and 107 women. Perception of hypertension and myocardial infarction was measured as the result on semantic differential questionnaire. Factor analysis extracted evaluation, potency and activity factor. Blood pressure control was interpreteted on the five degrees scale. Statistical significance was defined under 5% (p < 0.05). Hypertensive subjects perceived hypertension as less negative and more active, while myocardial infarction was perceived as more potent term than by normotensives. Women perceived myocardial infarction as less negative, and less potent term than men. Both groups perceived myocardial infarction as more negative, potent and active term than hypertension. Normotensive women evaluated hypertension as more negative, and perceived myocardial infarction as less potent than other subjects. Well-controlled hypertension was correlated with a lower potency of hypertension and lower activity of myocardial infarction. Both conditions are perceived as more "male" diseases. As perception of hypertension and myocardial infarction is correlated with blood pressure regulation in hypertensives, and hypertension is major risk factor for myocardial infarction, family doctors should put additional effort in changing perception of cardiovascular diseases in their patients, especially in women.  相似文献

A heart chamber undergoes eccentric hypertrophy in response to a chronic elevation of stroke-displacement demand, and it undergoes concentric hypertrophy in response to a chronic elevation of systolic-pressure demand. Both of these adaptations, which occur in various combinations, involve two myocardial plastic properties, "stretch normalization" and "stress normalization". We have developed a model which predicts dimensions and dynamics of the left ventricle as functions of myocardial properties and of the loads to which the chamber is adapted. The model involves: a stress-normalization rule which describes how myocardial volume depends on average systolic pressure, cavity volumes and the responsiveness of growth to stress; a stretch-normalization rule which describes how the cavity volume of standard stretch relates to average end-diastolic and end-systolic volumes; and a pressure-volume-curve equation giving isometric pressures as functions of cavity volume and myocardial volume relative to standard-stretch cavity volume, and elastic properties including contractility. The model shows how the relations among average dimensions, dynamics and loads depend on myocardial properties, particularly contractility and the growth response to stress. These properties are the main determinants of myocardial performance. In addition to the load adaptations mentioned above, the model predicts eccentric hypertrophy incident to reduced contractility, chronic dilation incident to reduced growth response to stress, myocardial stricture incident to excessive growth response to stress, and concentric hypertrophy (similar to high-pressure adaptation) incident to deposition of inert material. It allows some refinements in the evaluation of myocardial performance and in the evaluation of the abnormal properties responsible for abnormal performance.  相似文献

Oxidative stress is mechanistically implicated in the pathogenesis of myocardial injury and the subsequent fibrogenic tissue remodeling. Therapies targeting oxidative stress in the process of myocardial fibrogenesis are still lacking and thus remain as an active research area in myocardial injury management. The current study evaluated the effects of a NADPH oxidase inhibitor, apocynin, on the production of reactive oxygen species and the development of myocardial fibrogenesis in isoproterenol (ISO)-induced myocardial injury mouse model. The results revealed a remarkable effect of apocynin on attenuating the development of myocardial necrotic lesions, inflammation and fibrogenesis. Additionally, the protective effects of apocynin against myocardial injuries were associated with suppressed expression of an array of genes implicated in inflammatory and fibrogenic responses. Our study thus provided for the first time the histopathological and molecular evidence supporting the therapeutic value of apocynin against the development of myocardial injuries, in particular, myocardial fibrogenesis, which will benefit the mechanism-based drug development targeting oxidative stress in preventing and/or treating related myocardial disorders.  相似文献

心肌纤维化是多种心血管疾病,如冠心病、心肌梗死和心力衰竭等的终末期表现和主要致病因素。研究发现,免疫和炎症过程在心肌纤维化的发病机制中起决定性作用。近年来,人们发现肠道微生物在心肌纤维化的发病机制和发展中起着至关重要的作用。肠道菌群的失调可导致微生物的代谢产物转移到血液循环中,如短链脂肪酸、脂多糖和氧化三甲胺等。这些代谢物直接或间接地诱导组织损伤免疫和激活全身炎症反应,进而影响心肌纤维化。如何改变肠道菌群来改善心肌纤维化已成为当前的研究重点,包括饮食干预、使用抗生素、补充益生菌和益生元,以及粪便微生物群移植等。本综述旨在回顾肠道菌群及其代谢产物与心肌纤维化的相互作用,介绍通过干预肠道菌群改善心肌纤维化的研究进展,为心肌纤维化的治疗提供新思路。  相似文献

The aim of this study was to outline the consequences of a hypertonic saline-dextran-40 (HSD) infusion-induced peripheral flow stimulus on the ventricular function in closed-chest, pentobarbital-anesthetized dogs. We hypothesized that HSD-induced elevation in endothelin-1 (ET-1) and nitric oxide (NO) release can have a role in myocardial contractile responses; and that cardiac mast cells (MC) degranulation may be involved in this process. The consequences of disodium cromoglycate (a MC stabilizer) or ETR-p1/fl peptide (an endothelin-A receptor antagonist) treatment were evaluated. A 4 ml/kg iv HSD40 infusion significantly increased cardiac index and myocardial contractility, and resulted in a decreased peripheral resistance. The postinfusion period was characterized by significant plasma NO and ET-1 elevations, these hemodynamic and biochemical changes being accompanied by a decreased myocardial ET-1 content, NO synthase activity and enhanced myocardial MC degranulation. Disodium cromoglycate treatment inhibited the HSD40-induced elevations in myocardial contractility and MC degranulation, and similar hemodynamic changes were noted after treatment with ETR-p1/fl peptide, together with a normalized myocardial myocardial ET-1 content, NO synthesis and a significant reduction in MC degranulation. These results indicate that peripheral NO and ET-1 release modulates the cardiac contractility through myocardial ET-A receptor activation and MC degranulation.  相似文献

Interleukin-33 (IL-33) plays a protective role in myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) injury, but the underlying mechanism was not fully elucidated. The present study was designed to investigate whether IL-33 protects against myocardial I/R injury by regulating both P38 mitogen-activated-protein kinase (P38 MAPK), which is involved in one of the downstream signaling pathways of IL-33, and high mobility group box protein 1 (HMGB1), a late pro-inflammatory cytokine. Myocardial I/R injury increased the level of IL-33 and its induced receptor (sST) in myocardial tissue. Compared with the I/R group, the IL-33 group had significantly lower cardiac injury (lower serum creatine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and cTnI levels and myocardial infarct size), a suppressed inflammatory response in myocardial tissue (lower expression of HMGB1, IL-6, TNF-α and INF-γ) and less myocardial apoptosis (much higher Bcl-2/Bax ratio and lower cleaved caspase-3 expression). Moreover, IL-33 activated the P38 MAPK signaling pathway (up-regulating P-P38 expression) in myocardial tissue, and SB230580 partially attenuated the anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptosis effects of IL-33. These findings indicated that IL-33 protects against myocardial I/R injury by inhibiting inflammatory responses and myocardial apoptosis, which may be associated with the HMGB1 and P38 MAPK signaling pathways.  相似文献

Hemorrhagic shock causes myocardial contractile depression. Although this myocardial disorder is associated with increased expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), the role of TNF-alpha as a myocardial depressant factor in hemorrhagic shock remains to be determined. Moreover, it is unclear which TNF-alpha receptor mediates the myocardial depressive effects of TNF-alpha. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) regulates cellular expression of proinflammatory mediators following lipopolysaccharide stimulation and may be involved in the tissue inflammatory response to injury. The contribution of TLR4 signaling to tissue TNF-alpha response to hemorrhagic shock and TLR4's role in myocardial depression during hemorrhagic shock are presently unknown. We examined the relationship of TNF-alpha production to myocardial depression in a mouse model of nonresuscitated hemorrhagic shock, assessed the influence of TLR4 mutation, resulting in defective signaling, on TNF-alpha production and myocardial depression, and determined the roles of TNF-alpha and TNF-alpha receptors in myocardial depression using a gene knockout (KO) approach. Hemorrhagic shock resulted in increased plasma and myocardial TNF-alpha (4.9- and 4.5-fold, respectively) at 30 min and induced myocardial contractile depression at 4 h. TLR4 mutation abolished the TNF-alpha response and attenuated myocardial depression (left ventricular developed pressure of 43.0 +/- 6.2 mmHg in TLR4 mutant vs. 30.0 +/- 3.6 mmHg in wild type, P < 0.05). TNF-alpha KO also attenuated myocardial depression in hemorrhagic shock, and the p55 receptor KO, but not the p75 receptor KO, mimicked the effect of TNF-alpha KO. The results suggest that TLR4 plays a novel role in signaling to the TNF-alpha response during hemorrhagic shock and that TNF-alpha through the p55 receptor activates a pathway leading to myocardial depression. Thus TLR4 and the p55 TNF-alpha receptor represent therapeutic targets for preservation of cardiac mechanical function during hemorrhagic shock.  相似文献

Background

Systolic compression of a coronary artery by overlying myocardial tissue is termed myocardial bridging. Myocardial bridging usually has a benign prognosis, but some cases resulting in myocardial ischemia, infarction and sudden cardiac death have been reported. We are reporting a case of myocardial bridging which was complicated with acute myocardial infarction associated with inappropriate blood donation.

Case presentation

A 33 year-old-man was admitted to our emergency with acute anteroseptal myocardial infarction after a blood donation. The electrocardiography showed sinus rhythm and was consistent with an acute anteroseptal myocardial infarction. We decided to perform primary percutanous intervention (PCI). Myocardial bridging was observed in the mid segment of the left anterior descending coronary artery on coronary angiogram. PCI was canceled and medical follow up was decided. Blood transfusion was made because he had a deep anemia. A normal hemaglobin level and clinical reperfusion was achieved after ten hours by blood transfusion. At the one year follow up visit, our patient was healthy and had no cardiac complaints.

Conclusions

Myocardial bridging may cause acute myocardial infarction in various clinical conditions. Although the condition in this case caused profound anemia related acute myocardial infarction, its treatment and management was unusual.  相似文献

Mitochondria are important organelles in eukaryotic cells. Normal mitochondrial homeostasis is subject to a strict mitochondrial quality control system, including the strict regulation of mitochondrial production, fission/fusion and mitophagy. The strict and accurate modulation of the mitochondrial quality control system, comprising the mitochondrial fission/fusion, mitophagy and other processes, can ameliorate the myocardial injury of myocardial ischaemia and ischaemia-reperfusion after myocardial infarction, which plays an important role in myocardial protection after myocardial infarction. Further research into the mechanism will help identify new therapeutic targets and drugs for the treatment of myocardial infarction. This article aims to summarize the recent research regarding the mitochondrial quality control system and its molecular mechanism involved in myocardial infarction, as well as the potential therapeutic targets in the future.  相似文献

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is associated with inflammation and apoptosis. Emodin plays an anti-inflammatory role in several inflammatory diseases. Recent studies have demonstrated that emodin protects against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. However, its mechanism underlying its effects remains unknown. In a murine model of AMI, based on ligation of the left coronary artery, administration of emodin reduced myocardial infarct size (MIS) in a dose-dependent manner. Emodin significantly suppressed TNF-alpha expression and NF-kappaB activation in the local myocardial infarction area. Treatment with emodin inhibited myocardial cell apoptosis by inhibiting caspase-3 activation. Therefore, these studies demonstrate that emodin protects against myocardial cell injury via suppression of local inflammation and apoptosis.  相似文献

Cardiac surgery is performed in approximately 770,000 adults and 30,000 children in the United States of America annually. In this review we outline the mechanistic links between post-operative myocardial stunning and the development of myocardial edema. These interrelated processes cause a decline in myocardial performance that account for significant morbidity and mortality after cardiac surgery. Factors leading to myocardial edema include hemodilution, ischemia and reperfusion as well as osmotic gradients arising from pathological change. Several members of the aquaporin family of water transport proteins have been described in the myocardium although their role in the pathogenesis and resolution of cardiac edema is not established. This review examines evidence for the involvement of aquaporins in myocardial water handling during normal and pathological conditions.  相似文献

Myocardial interstitial edema forms as a result of several disease states and clinical interventions. Acute myocardial interstitial edema is associated with compromised systolic and diastolic cardiac function and increased stiffness of the left ventricular chamber. Formation of chronic myocardial interstitial edema results in deposition of interstitial collagen, which causes interstitial fibrosis. To assess the effect of myocardial interstitial edema on the mechanical properties of the left ventricle and the myocardial interstitium, we induced acute and chronic interstitial edema in dogs. Acute myocardial edema was generated by coronary sinus pressure elevation, while chronic myocardial edema was generated by chronic pulmonary artery banding. The pressure-volume relationships of the left ventricular myocardial interstitium and left ventricular chamber for control animals were compared with acutely and chronically edematous animals. Collagen content of nonedematous and chronically edematous animals was also compared. Generating acute myocardial interstitial edema resulted in decreased left ventricular chamber compliance compared with nonedematous animals. With chronic edema, the primary form of collagen changed from type I to III. Left ventricular chamber compliance in animals made chronically edematous was significantly higher than nonedematous animals. The change in primary collagen type secondary to chronic left ventricular myocardial interstitial edema provides direct evidence for structural remodeling. The resulting functional adaptation allows the chronically edematous heart to maintain left ventricular chamber compliance when challenged with acute edema, thus preserving cardiac function over a wide range of interstitial fluid pressures.  相似文献

Endotoxin is one of the major factors causing myocardial depression and death during sepsis in humans. Recently, it was reported that endotoxin may induce cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Also, multiple caspase activation has been implicated in endotoxin-induced apoptosis in several organ systems. In this study, we investigated whether endotoxin would increase myocardial caspase activities and evaluated the effects of in vivo administration (3 mg/kg) of the broad-spectrum caspase inhibitor benzyloxycarbonyl-Val-Ala-Asp-fluoromethylketone(z-VAD.fmk), the caspase-3-like inhibitor benzyloxycarbonyl-Asp-Glu-Val-Asp-chloromethylketone (z-DEVD.cmk), and the caspase-1-like inhibitor acetyl-Tyr-Val-Ala-Asp-chloromethylketone (Ac-YVAD. fmk), on endotoxin-induced myocardial dysfunction and apoptosis. Endotoxin administration (10 mg/kg iv) induced myocardial contractile dysfunction that was associated with caspase activity increases and nuclear apoptosis. Broad-spectrum z-VAD.fmk and z-DEVD.cmk improved endotoxin-induced myocardial dysfunction and reduced caspase activation and nuclear apoptosis when given immediately and 2 h after endotoxin. In contrast, no effects of Ac-YVAD.fmk were observed on myocardial function and caspase-induced apoptosis. Administration of caspase inhibitors 4 h after endotoxin treatment was not able to protect the rat heart from myocardial dysfunction and nuclear apoptosis. These observations provide evidence that in our model, caspase activation plays a role in endotoxin-induced myocardial apoptosis. Caspase inhibition strategy may represent a therapeutic approach to endotoxin-induced myocardial dysfunction.  相似文献

Despite significant advances in myocardial revascularization and reperfusion, coronary artery disease and subsequently myocardial infarction, are the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in the United States. Strategies which improve the myocardial substrate during and following a myocardial infarction-such as the regrowth of functional blood vessels to the ischemic myocardium would be of great clinical importance. This review article attempts to address this important clinical issue through identifying potential signalling mechanisms by various mode of preconditioning that cause angiogenesis.  相似文献

It has been postulated that a coronary vasoconstriction during hypocapnia might be opposed by a compensating coronary vasodilatation due to impaired myocardial oxygen supply. The present study was performed first to examine whether a maximal decline in coronary sinus (CS) oxygen content was reached during hypocapnia. During hypercapnia a myocardial "over perfusion" has been demonstrated. The second purpose of the present study was to examine whether a myocardial "over perfusion" is essential to maintain a sufficient myocardial tissue oxygen supply during hypercapnia. Closed-chest dogs were anesthetized with pentobarbital and hypocapnia was induced by hyperventilation. Nitrogen gas and carbon dioxide could both be added to the inspiratory gas to create arterial hypoxemia (arterial SO2 65%) and hypercapnia, respectively. Arterial hypoxemia during hypocapnia increased myocardial blood flow (MBF) by 50%, while CS SO2 decreased significantly. The decrease in CS SO2 demonstrates a reserve capacity of myocardial oxygen extraction during hypocapnia, thereby ruling out any major coronary vasoconstriction during hypocapnia. Hypercapnia during normoxemia increased MBF, myocardial oxygen delivery, and CS SO2 substantially, but this was not observed when hypercapnia was created during arterial hypoxemia. From the present results we conclude that hypocapnia does not cause any major coronary vasoconstriction, while hypercapnia results in a myocardial "over perfusion," which is a luxury perfusion not essential to maintain sufficient myocardial oxygen supply during hypercapnia.  相似文献

After a 10-minute incubation, both the parathyroid hypertensive factor (PHF) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) reduced myocardial contractility and accelerated myocardial relaxation. Effects of the PTH and PHF on myocardial inotropic characteristics were of opposite directions.  相似文献
