摘要
1 The aim of this study was to assess the effects of the Na+-H+ exchange inhibitor cariporide on left ventricular (LV) morphology and function as well as inflammation in rabbits with heart failure. 2 Rabbits with myocardial infarction (MI) and sham controls were randomized to receive either standard chow or chow supplemented with cariporide for 9 weeks. LV morphology was determined by echocardiography. LV systolic and diastolic function was assessed under load-dependent and -independent conditions by analysis of LV pressure-volume loops using piezo-electric crystals. 3 Plasma concentrations of C-reactive protein and aldosterone were measured. 4 Rabbits with MI developed LV dilatation that was reduced by cariporide. Systolic and diastolic LV function was impaired in rabbits with MI when compared to sham, as indicated by a decreased dP/dt(max) (MI: 3537+/-718 mmHg s(-1), sham: 5839+/-247 mmHg s(-1), P<0.05), the load-independent preload recruitable stroke work (PRSW)(MI: 22 +/- 7 mmHg, sham: 81 +/- 23 mmHg, P<0.05) and a reduction in the time constant of relaxation tau (tau) (MI: 27+/-1 ms, sham: 17+/-1 ms, P<0.05), and significantly improved by cariporide (dP/dt(max): 4586 +/- 374 mmHg s(-1), PRSW: 67 +/- 18 mmHg, tau: 20 +/- 2 ms; P<0.05 vs MI/control). 5 Induction of MI was associated with an increase in aldosterone and CRP, indicating activation of the neurohormonal and the inflammatory system that were largely reduced by cariporide. 6 Cariporide improves LV morphology and function post MI and suppresses inflammation and neurohormonal activation in congestive heart failure (CHF). Na+-H+ exchange inhibition may represent a new pharmaceutical approach for the treatment of CHF.
