Fueling the hypertrophied heart.
Substrate utilization by heart muscle provides the fuel for both maintenance of structure and function of the myocardium and for ample reserve capacity to meet sudden surges in cardiac energy requirements. Many factors influence the balance of substrate uptake by the myocardium, but in general, utilization of lipids versus carbohydrates correlates to their concentration in the arterial blood. T...
متن کاملFueling the heart.
An invitation from Eduardo Marbán, on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of Circulation Research, provides an opportunity to reflect on my understanding of the most important advance in regulation of cardiac metabolism. By the early 1950s, the major findings were the observation by Locke and Rosenheim in 1907 that glucose is used as a fuel by the isolated perfused heart and the observation by...
متن کاملHeart hormones fueling a fire in fat
Our view of how adipose tissue metabolism is regulated recently experienced a change in focus and breadth, meaning that some of the key controlling factors were not fully in the picture. The catecholamines of the sympathetic nervous system are well-known activators of β-adrenergic receptors in adipocytes to increase lipolysis. They also drive energy expenditure in brown adipose tissue and, impo...
متن کاملMyocardial transcapillary exchange in the hypertrophied heart of the dog.
Myocardial transcapillary exchange was investigated in control hearts and in two types of hypertrophied hearts: exercise hypertrophy and pathological hypertrophy due to tricuspid insufficiency. Using the single-injection indicator diffusion method (6, 28), myocardial extractions (E), capillary clearances (C), and permeability surface area products (PS) of urea, sucrose, and inulin were measured...
متن کامل[Myocardial protection to the hypertrophied heart: the eternal challenge].
The myocardial protection allowed great advance in cardiac surgery, decreasing the mortality and making more feasible complex surgeries. Lately, the patient population elected for cardiac procedures has been changing towards elderly patients with ventricular function depressed and myocardial hypertrophy. The myocardial hypertrophy condition represents a great challenge since the beginning of th...
