The development of the atrioventricular conduction system in the mouse heart has been studied by light and electron microscopy from the time of the completion of ventricular septation to fetal stage II, 13–16 days postcoitum. At the beginning of this period the already established atrioventricular node (AVN) enlarges rapidly into the dorsal AV cushion from the primitive AV tract, reaching almost its full fetal size when septation is complete. The development of the atrionodal interconnections is a slow and complex process. The dorsal atrial myocardium develops on both sides of the node, establishing a muscular overlay over its proximal aspect, and also incorporating the former AV tract. At this time also, the developing muscular interatrial septum grows downward to establish contact with the node, the sinus venosus, and the myocardium of the right and left atrial walls. The distally proceeding differentiation of the ab initio continuous conduction pathway along the AVN, His bundle, and bundle branches demonstrates a progressive and sequential development of high cellular glycogen content. Progressive isolation of the atrioventricular conduction system leading to (still incomplete) insulation by connective tissue, has been observed. 相似文献

The cells of the atrioventricular (AV) junction in the ferret heart were examined using light microscopy, a wax-model reconstruction and quantitative electron microscopy to determine their organization and characteristics. A series of subdivisions of the specialized tissues of the AV junction was apparent at both the light and electron microscopic levels. A transitional zone was observed interposed between the atrial muscle cells and the AV node. The AV node consisted of a coronary sinus portion, a superficial portion and a deep portion. The AV bundle had a segment above the anulus fibrosus, a segment which penetrated the right fibrous trigone, a non-branching segment below the anulus fibrosus and a branched segment. At the ultrastructural level the AV junctional conduction tissues had fewer irregularly oriented myofibrils than did working atrial myocardial cells. T-tubules, present in atrial muscle cells, were not observed in the modified muscle cells of the AV node and bundle. Conventional intercalated discs also were not observed between the cells of the AV node or the AV bundle. Atrial myocardial cells had the highest percentage of the plasma membrane occupied by desmosomes, fasciae adherentes and gap junctions. The AV bundle cells had the highest percentage of appositional surface membrane and a relatively large fraction of plasma membrane occupied by gap junctions. Cells of the superficial portion of the AV node had the smallest percentage of the plasma membrane composed of gap junctions, desmosomes or fasciae adherentes, as well as the smallest fraction of the cell membrane apposed to adjacent cells. The stereological data indicate that the most useful distinguishing characteristic between atrial muscle cells and conduction cells was that a smaller percentage of the conduction cell sarcoplasm was occupied by mitochondria and myofibrils. The most useful characteristics that could be used to differentiate between the regions of the AV junctional conduction tissues were the amounts and types of surface membrane specializations in the respective cell types. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine whether the known myocardial degeneration in TTP is due to apoptosis. In TTP the heart is often involved, including the cardiac conduction system. Despite many platelet occlusions of small coronary arteries, there is little myocardial necrosis. Why the intermittent clinical episodes begin or end is unknown. Six hearts of patients dying with TTP were examined with routine and immunohistochemical stains. In addition to ventricular and atrial myocardium we examined the cardiac conduction system and coronary chemoreceptor. Numerous small coronary arteries were occluded with platelet thrombi in all these sites, including especially the sinus node, AV node and His bundle. The myocardial degeneration we found was conspicuously devoid of inflammation and the myocytes were relatively intact. These characteristics combined with TUNEL-positivity in the degenerating cells are typical of apoptosis. The focal degeneration in TTP is primarily apoptotic. Because circulating serotonin is carried by platelets and is released during aggregation, and because serotonin can cause a powerful cardiogenic hypertensive chemoreflex, we suggest that such a response may dislodge early platelet aggregations. Lessons from TTP may have special relevance for better understanding of myocardial reperfusion problems associated with angioplasty, thrombolysis and ischemic preconditioning. 相似文献

Initial expression of type I procollagen in chick cardiac mesenchyme is dependent upon myocardial stimulation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Formation of the atrioventricular (AV) mesenchyme is a critical step in early heart development. Endothelial cells are activated and transformed into a mesenchymal population that invades the cell-free myocardial basement membrane. This process can be duplicated in collagen gel culture, where it has been established that myocardium or its secretory products activate the endothelium. The purpose of the present study was to determine when these activated endothelial and/or mesenchymal cells start producing type I collagen in situ. These results were compared to those obtained from a culture model of mesenchyme formation. The production of type I collagen was monitored using a monoclonal antibody (M38) that recognizes the carboxy-terminal propeptide of human type I procollagen. The initial expression of the latter within activated AV endothelial and mesenchymal cells in ovo was 48 hr following activation. Prior to this time, only the myocardium was reactive with M38. AV explants of early hearts on collagen gels revealed staining of activated endothelial and mesenchymal cells with M38 after 48 hr in coculture with myocardial tissue. Explants that were prevented from activating (myocardium removed) never expressed the M38 antigen. Similarly, AV endothelial monolayers grown in the presence of myocardial conditioned medium activated and expressed type I collagen after 48 hr in culture, whereas those grown in standard medium did not. These results establish the initial expression of type I collagen within activated AV endothelium and mesenchyme. In addition, the data suggest that the expression of type I collagen within the AV mesenchyme may be dependent on extrinsic influences that induce the AV endothelium to transform into mesenchyme. 相似文献

Periostin expression by epicardium-derived cells is involved in the development of the atrioventricular valves and fibrous heart skeleton 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Lie-Venema H Eralp I Markwald RR van den Akker NM Wijffels MC Kolditz DP van der Laarse A Schalij MJ Poelmann RE Bogers AJ Gittenberger-de Groot AC 《Differentiation; research in biological diversity》2008,76(7):809-819
Abstract The epicardium is embryologically formed by outgrowth of proepicardial cells over the naked heart tube. Epicardium-derived cells (EPDCs) migrate into the myocardium, contributing to myocardial architecture, valve development, and the coronary vasculature. Defective EPDC formation causes valve malformations, myocardial thinning, and coronary defects. In the atrioventricular (AV) valves and the fibrous heart skeleton isolating atrial from ventricular myocardium, EPDCs colocalize with periostin, a matrix molecule involved in remodeling. We investigated whether proepicardial outgrowth inhibition affected periostin expression and how this related to development of the AV valves and fibrous heart skeleton.
Periostin expression by epicardium and EPDCs was confirmed in vitro in primary cultures of human and quail EPDCs. Disturbing EPDC formation in quail embryos reduced periostin expression in the endocardial cushions and AV junction. Disturbed fibrous tissue development resulted in AV myocardial connections reflected by preexcitation electrocardiographic patterns.
We conclude that EPDCs are local producers of periostin. Disturbance of EPDC formation results in decreased cardiac periostin levels and hampers the development of fibrous tissue in AV junction and the developing AV valves. The resulting cardiac anomalies might link to Wolff–Parkinson White syndrome with persistent AV myocardial connections. 相似文献

Previous histological studies showed that in addition to a sinus node, an atrioventricular (AV) node, an AV bundle, left and right bundle branches, birds also possess a right AV‐Purkinje ring that is located in the atrial sheet of the right muscular AV‐valve along all its base length. The functionality of the AV‐Purkinje ring is unknown. In this work, we studied the topology of pacemaker myocytes in the atrial side of the isolated chicken spontaneously contracting right muscular AV‐valve using the method of microelectrode mapping of action potentials. We show that AV‐cells having the ability to show pacemaking reside in the right muscular AV‐valve. Pacemaker action potentials were exclusively recorded close to the base of the valve along its whole length from dorsal to the ventral attachment to the interventricular septum. These action potentials have much slower rate of depolarization, lower amplitude, and higher diastolic depolarization than action potentials of Purkinje (conducting) cells. We conclude the right AV‐valve has a ring bundle of pacemaker cells (but not Purkinje cells) in the adult chicken heart. J. Morphol. 277:363–369, 2016. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

The development of the atrioventricular node and bundle of His of embryonic chick hearts was studied by electrophysiological and morphological techniques. The dorsal wall of the AV canal and the interatrial septum were explored to determine if they contribute to the formation of the AV node and bundle of His. The resting membrane and action potentials of the interatrial septum cells were systematically analyzed and found to undergo progressive differentiation with development. The earliest identification of the AV node and upper bundle of His group of cells was achieved at 5 1/2-6 days of development by the electrical recording of their corresponding characteristic action potentials, from a circumscribed area located in the lowest and dorsal segment of the interatrial septum. The morphological and anatomical characterization of the cells was made following electrical recording and labelling with charcoal particles. The earlier AV node and bundle of His responses had similar characteristics to those of the adult heart. It is concluded that the AV node and upper bundle of His cells derive from the low interatrial septum. The possibility that AV canal cells contribute to this event was discarded. The functional relationship of the Av node and bundle of His with other cardiac tissues during the early development of the heart is discussed. 相似文献

A well-described population of cardiac neural crest (NC) cells migrates toward the arterial pole of the embryonic heart and differentiates into various cell types, including smooth muscle cells of the pharyngeal arch arteries (but not the coronary arteries), cardiac ganglionic cells, and mesenchymal cells of the aortopulmonary septum. Using a replication-incompetent retrovirus containing the reporter gene LacZ, administered to the migratory neural crest of chicken embryos, we demonstrated another population of cardiac neural crest cells that employs the venous pole as entrance to the heart. On the basis of our present data we cannot exclude the possibility that precursors of these cells might not only originate from the dorsal part of the posterior rhombencephalon, but also from the ventral part. These NC cells migrate to locations surrounding the prospective conduction system as well as to the atrioventricular (AV) cushions. Concerning the prospective conduction system, the tagged neural crest cells can be found in regions where the atrioventricular node area, the retroaortic root bundle, the bundle of His, the left and right bundle branches, and the right atrioventricular ring bundle are positioned. The last area connects the posteriorly located AV node area with the retroaortic root bundle, which receives its neural crest cells through the arterial pole in concert with the cells giving rise to the aortopulmonary septum. The NC cells most probably do not form the conduction system proper, as they enter an apoptotic pathway as determined by concomitant TUNEL detection. It is possible that the NC cells in the heart become anoikic and, as a consequence, fail to differentiate further and merely die. However, because of the perfect timing of the arrival of crest cells, their apoptosis, and a change in electrophysiological behavior of the heart, we postulate that neural crest cells play a role in the last phase of differentiation of the cardiac conduction system. Alternatively, the separation of the central conduction system from the surrounding working myocardium is mediated by apoptotic neural crest cells. As for the presence of NC cells in both the outflow tract and the AV cushions, followed by apoptosis, a function is assigned in the muscularization of both areas, resulting in proper septation of the outflow tract and of the AV region. Failure of normal neural crest development may not only play a role in cardiac outflow tract anomalies but also in inflow tract abnormalities, such as atrioventricular septal defects. 相似文献

The osmium-ferrocyanide method for staining of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) was used for a morphological investigation of the various components of the SR in the atrioventricular node and bundle (AVNB) cells of guinea pig hearts. On the basis of light microscopic observations, the AVNB tissue in guinea pig hearts can be divided into five regions: atrionodal junction, midnode, proximal bundle, distal bundle, and bundle branches. Electron microscopic observations revealed two types of junctional SR (j-SR) saccules in the cells from all the regions of AVNB tissue. One is similar to that seen in the working cardiac cells, i.e., flattened saccules with junctional granules. The second type is dilated and contains electron-dense granular material throughout its lumen. The flattened type is seen more often than the dilated type in atrionodal junctional cells and midnode cells, whereas the dilated type occurs more often in distal bundle cells and bundle branch cells. In most cells from the atrionodal junction and midnode regions, the j-SR saccules are apposed more often to sarcolemmal areas associated with nonspecialized regions of intercellular junctions than to other sarcolemmal areas. This distribution was not found in the distal bundle and bundle branch cells. Free SR tubules around the myofilament bundles are poorly developed in the midnode cells, generally in accord with the extent of development of myofibrils. Z-tubules are found in cells from all regions but are poorly developed in midnode cells. Corbular SR vesicles are found in cells from all the regions of AVNB tissues but are rare in midnode cells. Thus, each of the regions in the AVNB tissue has a different, characteristic distribution of SR components. Because of their possible relationship to the regulation of the intracellular concentrations of calcium, these differences in SR morphology may contribute to the diverse physiological properties of the different regions of the AV node and bundle. 相似文献

Activation of Notch1 signaling in cardiogenic mesoderm induces abnormal heart morphogenesis in mouse
Watanabe Y Kokubo H Miyagawa-Tomita S Endo M Igarashi K Aisaki Ki Kanno J Saga Y 《Development (Cambridge, England)》2006,133(9):1625-1634
Notch signaling is implicated in many developmental processes. In our current study, we have employed a transgenic strategy to investigate the role of Notch signaling during cardiac development in the mouse. Cre recombinase-mediated Notch1 (NICD1) activation in the mesodermal cell lineage leads to abnormal heart morphogenesis, which is characterized by deformities of the ventricles and atrioventricular (AV) canal. The major defects observed include impaired ventricular myocardial differentiation, the ectopic appearance of cell masses in the AV cushion, the right-shifted interventricular septum (IVS) and impaired myocardium of the AV canal. However, the fates of the endocardium and myocardium were not disrupted in NICD1-activated hearts. One of the Notch target genes, Hesr1, was found to be strongly induced in both the ventricle and the AV canal of NICD1-activated hearts. However, a knockout of the Hesr1 gene from NICD-activated hearts rescues only the abnormality of the AV myocardium. We searched for additional possible targets of NICD1 activation by GeneChip analysis and found that Wnt2, Bmp6, jagged 1 and Tnni2 are strongly upregulated in NICD1-activated hearts, and that the activation of these genes was also observed in the absence of Hesr1. Our present study thus indicates that the Notch1 signaling pathway plays a suppressive role both in AV myocardial differentiation and the maturation of the ventricular myocardium. 相似文献

Bone morphogenetic protein-2 can mediate myocardial regulation of atrioventricular cushion mesenchymal cell formation in mice 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Transformation of endocardial endothelial cells into invasive mesenchyme is a critical antecedent of cardiac cushion tissue formation. The message for bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-2 is known to be expressed in myocardial cells in a manner consistent with the segmental pattern of cushion formation [Development 109(1990) 833]. In the present work, we localized BMP-2 protein in atrioventricular (AV) myocardium in mice at embryonic day (ED) 8.5 (12 somite stage) before the onset of AV mesenchymal cell formation at ED 9.5. BMP-2 protein expression was absent from ventricular myocardium throughout the stages examined. After cellularization of the AV cushion at ED 10.5, myocardial BMP-2 protein expression was diminished in AV myocardium, whereas cushion mesenchymal cells started expressing BMP protein. Expression of BMP-2 in cushion mesenchyme persisted during later stages of development, ED 13.5-16, during valuvulogenesis. Intense expression of BMP-2 persisted in the valve tissue in adult mice. Based on the expression pattern, we performed a series of experiments to test the hypothesis that BMP-2 mediates myocardial regulation of cardiac cushion tissue formation in mice. When BMP-2 protein was added to the 16-18 somite stage (ED 9.25) AV endocardial endothelium in culture, cushion mesenchymal cells were formed in the absence of AV myocardium, which invaded into collagen gels and expressed the mesenchymal marker, smooth muscle (SM) alpha-actin; whereas the endothelial marker, PECAM-1, was lost from the invaded cells. In contrast, when noggin, a specific antagonist to BMPs, was applied together with BMP-2 to the culture medium, AV endothelial cells remained as an epithelial monolayer with little expression of SM alpha-actin, and expression of PECAM-1 was retained in the endocardial cells. When noggin was added to AV endothelial cells cocultured with associated myocardium, it blocked endothelial transformation to mesenchyme. AV endothelium treated with BMP-2 expressed elevated levels of TGFbeta-2 in the absence of myocardium, as observed in the endothelium cocultured with myocardium. BMP-2-supported elevation of TGFbeta-2 expression in endocardial cells was abolished by noggin treatment. These data indicated that BMP signaling is required in and BMP-2 is sufficient for myocardial segmental regulation of AV endocardial cushion mesenchymal cell formation in mice. 相似文献

The previous observations of differences between different cardiac regions (ventricular myocardium, atrial myocardium, Purkinje fibre system) with respect to the maturation of the M-line region and the establishment of mature metabolic characteristics, have been extended. It was found that M-line maturation proceeds differently also between different regions of the conduction system. The M-line proteins, myomesin and MM-creatine kinase, were detected earlier, by means of immunohistochemistry, in the AV bundle and bundle branch cells than in the AV node cells. Also, a difference was observed in large foetuses. Striations in the AV node were less evident than in the AV bundle and the bundle branches in sections incubated with antibodies against myomesin as well as against MM-creatine kinase. Using enzyme histochemistry it was observed that the differences in metabolic properties between the AV node, the AV bundle and the bundle branches on the one hand, and the ordinary myocardium on the other, of adult hearts, are not established at the early stages. No clear difference in activity of succinate dehydrogenase was seen between the conduction tissues and the ordinary myocardium in the foetal hearts, while the conduction tissues showed a lower activity in the adult hearts. Furthermore, the pattern of activity of mitochondrial glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase between the conduction tissues and the atrial and ventricular myocardium was quite different in early foetal stages compared with the adult stage. 相似文献

The early chick heart tube consists of myocardium and endothelium separated by a myocardially derived basement membrane (MBM). As development proceeds, the endothelium undergoes a transition into mesenchyme in a regionally specific manner; only the atrioventricular (AV) and outflow tract, but not the ventricular endothelium, is transformed into mesenchyme, the progenitor of heart septa and valves. Recent experiments have shown that an EDTA extract of MBM can initiate AV endothelium to form mesenchyme in an in vitro collagen gel culture system. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of AV region EDTA extracts showed potentially three isoelectric forms of fibronectin (Fn), while extracts from ventricle contained only two forms. The purpose of the present study was to further investigate the significance of these regional differences by testing of specific myocardial regions (AV vs ventricle) for their ability to induce endothelium to form mesenchyme in vitro, and to immunohistochemically determine if a regionally specific distribution of Fn exists in the MBM that can be correlated with previous electrophoretic data. Embryonic heart regions cultured on three-dimensional collagen gels showed that AV endothelium could only form mesenchyme if cocultured with AV myocardium. Coculture with ventricular myocardial explants did not initiate differentiation of AV endothelium. In contrast, ventricular endothelial cells did not form mesenchyme when cocultured with AV or ventricle myocardium. Immunohistochemical localization of Fn revealed three distinct morphological patterns of distribution in the AV-MBM, i.e., an intense lamina densa staining, diffuse staining in fibrils, and as particles. The Fn localized in particles (0.1 to 0.5 micron in diameter) appeared as a gradient of decreasing concentration extending from the myocardium toward the endothelium. In contrast, no particulate Fn staining was observed in the ventricular region. EDTA extraction selectively depleted the particulate form of Fn. Previous work has shown that this extract, which contains several lower Mr proteins in addition to Fn, is biologically active in initiating mesenchyme formation from AV endothelium in vitro. These results show that a regionally specific interaction of the myocardium with the endothelium is required to initiate the formation of prevalvular mesenchyme. This interaction may be mediated by a multicomponent complex involving Fn and other proteins which appear as a regionally distinct particulate only in areas of endothelial differentiation. 相似文献

A method of retrograde perfusion of the myocardium has been developed in dogs. It consists of a double lumen balloon-tipped catheter inserted transvenously into the coronary sinus, with one lumen connected to a roller pump, the other to a helium counterpulsing pump. Oxygenated heparinized blood is obtained from the femoral artery and pumped continuously into the coronary sinus at a pressure of 50-75 mm Hg. The balloon is inflated during diastole, sealing the coronary sinus and promoting retrograde flow, and is deflated during systole, allowing blood drainage into the right atrium and preventing venous congestion. Thirteen anesthetized open-chest dogs were subjected to 15 minutes of proximal LAD artery occlusion and 30 minutes of diastolic coronary sinus perfusion (DCSP). The area of ischemia was mapped by means of platinum electrodes capable of simultaneously measuring myocardial tissue oxygen tension M(p)O(2)) and electrograms. Reduction of M(p)O(2) with simultaneous elevation of the ST segment on the corresponding electrogram was considered an indication of ischemia. Diastolic coronary sinus perfusion improved myocardial oxygen tension in the ischemic myocardium, reduced ST segment elevation, and tended to restore arterial blood pressure. Histologically, there was no intramyocardial hemorrhage. 相似文献

The morphological characteristics of the venous pole and pericardium of the heart were examined in three hagfish species, Myxine glutinosa, Eptatretus stoutii, and Eptatretus cirrhatus. In these species, the atrioventricular (AV) canal is long, funnel‐shaped and contains small amounts of myocardium. The AV valve is formed by two pocket‐like leaflets that lack a papillary system. The atrial wall is formed by interconnected muscle trabeculae and a well‐defined collagenous system. The sinus venosus (SV) shows a collagenous wall and is connected to the left side of the atrium. An abrupt collagen‐muscle boundary marks the SV‐atrium transition. It is hypothesized that the SV is not homologous to that of other vertebrates which could have important implications for understanding heart evolution. In M. glutinosa and E. stoutii, the pericardium is a closed bag that hangs from the tissues dorsal to the heart and encloses both the heart and the ventral aorta. In contrast, the pericardium is continuous with the loose periaortic tissue in E. cirrhatus. In all three species, the pericardium ends at the level of the SV excluding most of the atrium from the pericardial cavity. In M. glutinosa and E. stoutii, connective bridges extend between the base of the aorta and the ventricular wall. In E. cirrhatus, the connections between the periaortic tissue and the ventricle may carry blood vessels that reach the ventricular base. A further difference specific to E. cirrhatus is that the adipose tissue associated with the pericardium contains thyroid follicles. J. Morphol. 277:853–865, 2016. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

The intramural pathways of the venous blood outflow from the cardiac wall have been studied histologically, histochemically and micrometrically in 20 control and 84 experimental dogs with an artificially produced circulatory disturbances, peculiar for congenital heart disease (open arterial canal, coarctation of the aorta and stenosis of the pulmonary trunk). The experimental animals have been observed for 6-12 months. In the venous line of the coronary basin several morphologically differed parts, anatomically and functionally connected between themselves and ensuring blood outflow from the myocardium, are distinguished: coronary sinus, subepicardial veins, paired sinusoid veins, myocardial sinusoids and endocardial cushions. In each of them there are their own adaptive structures, participating in regulation of the venous blood stream. In the cardial sinus, in the subepicardial and paired sinusoid veins--these are valves of various complexity. In the myocardial sinusoids, the regulatory function, together with the valves, are performed by the intimal and muscle cushions, connective tissue and muscle bridges. In the endocardial cushions they are realized by the valves, muscle sphincters, bundles of obliquely and longitudinally oriented leiomyocytes. All the adaptive structures mentioned are also found in the hearts of the control animals. Under modelling various hemodynamic disturbances, the degree of their development increases sharply. The latter ensures the maintenance of an optimal regimen of blood circulation in the myocardium of a functionally loaded heart and prevents development of decompensation in the organ. 相似文献

The aim of the present study was experimental demonstration of the formation of reentry in isolated preparations of the rabbit's right atrium, including sulcus terminalis, interatrial septum and AV node. Tachycardia was evoked by extrasystolic stimulation of the preparation. Reentry was identified by computerized multichannel mapping of excitation wave propagation. A series of sections performed in the area between the caval veins and the coronary sinus confirmed the presence of reentry pathway round the orifices of caval veins and through AV made zone. Local cooling and sections performed in different parts of the AV node showed that not all areas of AV node were involved in the formation of reentry, but only the perinodal (AN) area. These effects on the AN area terminated tachycardia. Linear dependence between the period of tachycardia and delay in the AV nodal zone was found. 相似文献

Coronary sinus pressure (Pcs) elevation shifts the diastolic coronary pressure-flow relation (PFR) of the entire left ventricular myocardium to a higher pressure intercept. This finding suggests that Pcs is one determinant of zero-flow pressure (Pzf) and challenges the existence of a vascular waterfall mechanism in the coronary circulation. To determine whether coronary sinus or tissue pressure is the effective coronary back pressure in different layers of the left ventricular myocardium, the effect of increasing Pcs was studied while left ventricular preload was low. PFRs were determined experimentally by graded constriction of the circumflex coronary artery while measuring flow using a flowmeter. Transmural myocardial blood flow distribution was studied (15-micron radioactive spheres) at steady state, during maximal coronary artery vasodilatation at three points on the linear portion of the circumflex PFR both at low and high diastolic Pcs (7 +/- 3 vs. 22 +/- 5 mmHg; p less than 0.0001) (1 mmHg = 133.322 Pa). In the uninstrumented anterior wall the blood flow measurements were obtained in triplicate at the two Pcs levels. From low to high Pcs, mean aortic (98 +/- 23 mmHg) and left atrial (5 +/- 3 mmHg) pressure, percent diastolic time (49 +/- 7%), percent left ventricular wall thickening (32 +/- 4%), and percent myocardial lactate extraction (15 +/- 12%) were not significantly changed. Increasing Pcs did not alter the slope of the PFR; however, the Pzf increased in the subepicardial layer (p less than 0.0001), whereas in the subendocardial layer Pzf did not change significantly. Similar slopes and Pzf were observed for the PFR of both total myocardial mass and subepicardial region at low and high Pcs. Subendocardial:subepicardial blood flow ratios increased for each set of measurements when Pcs was elevated (p less than 0.0001), owing to a reduction of subepicardial blood flow; however, subendocardial blood flow remained unchanged, while starting in the subepicardium toward midmyocardium blood flow decreased at high Pcs. This pattern was similar for the uninstrumented anterior wall as well as in the posterior wall. Thus as Pcs increases it becomes the effective coronary back pressure with decreasing magnitude from the subepicardium toward the subendocardium of the left ventricle. Assuming that elevating Pcs results in transmural elevation in coronary venous pressure, these findings support the hypothesis of a differential intramyocardial waterfall mechanism with greater subendo- than subepi-cardial tissue pressure. 相似文献
