Myocardial infarction in rats. Infarct size, myocyte hypertrophy, and capillary growth.
To determine the compensatory reserve capacity of the ventricular myocardium following infarction, the left coronary artery in rats was ligated, and the animals were killed 40 days later. Infarcts affecting an average 23% of the left ventricle were characterized by a 27% hypertrophic growth of the remaining myocardium that produced a complete replacement of the necrotic tissue. In contrast, inf...
متن کاملIncreases Myocardial Infarct Size in Rats
Background Exposure to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) has been epidemiologically linked to death from ischemic heart disease in nonsmokers. In this study, we evaluated the influence of 3 days, 3 weeks, and 6 weeks of ETS exposure on myocardial infarct size in a rat ischemia/reperfusion model. Methods and Results Sprague-Dawley rats exposed to ETS (four Marlboro cigarettes per 15 minutes, 6 h...
متن کاملCircadian variations of infarct size in acute myocardial infarction.
BACKGROUND The circadian clock influences a number of cardiovascular (patho)physiological processes including the incidence of acute myocardial infarction. A circadian variation in infarct size has recently been shown in rodents, but there is no clinical evidence of this finding. OBJECTIVE To determine the impact of time-of-day onset of ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) on in...
متن کاملInfarct Size in Awake Dogs With Acute Myocardial Infarction
Background. Short-term cholesterol feeding has been shown to affect vasomotor tone and increase infarct size in anesthetized rabbits. The purpose of the study was to determine whether acute hypercholesterolemia reduced collateral flow to ischemic myocardium and increased infarct size in the awake dog. Methods and Results. Acute myocardial infarction was produced in awake dogs by a 4-hour left a...
متن کاملMyocardial infarct size and ventricular function in rats.
To define the relationship between infarct size and ventricular performance, we performed hemodynamic studies in rats 21 days after left coronary artery occlusion. Ventricular performance was assessed under ether anesthesia by measurements of baseline hemodynamics and stressed performance as determined by the peak cardiac output and stroke volume obtained during intravenous volume loading and b...
