Tonin in rat heart with experimental hypertrophy.
The present study was undertaken to determine tonin expression and activity in rat heart presenting isoproterenol-induced hypertrophy. Renin, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), and angiotensinogen (AG) expression were also determined. Wistar rats were treated with isoproterenol for 7 days (5 mg x kg(-1) x day(-1) sc). For untreated animals, the levels of tonin-specific activity in the atrium ...
متن کاملLeft ventricular myofilament dysfunction in rat experimental hypertrophy and congestive heart failure.
It is currently unclear whether left ventricular (LV) myofilament function is depressed in experimental LV hypertrophy (LVH) or congestive heart failure (CHF). To address this issue, we studied pressure overload-induced LV hypertrophy (POLVH) and myocardial infarction-elicited congestive heart failure (MICHF) in rats. LV myocytes were isolated from control, POLVH, and MICHF hearts by mechanical...
متن کاملProtocollagen proline hydroxylase activity in rat heart during experimental cardiac hypertrophy.
Cardiac hypertrophy was produced in rats by constricting the abdominal aorta subdiaphragmatically. The weight of the left ventricle was significantly elevated 2 days after aortic constriction and was 19% higher than in shamoperated animals at 11 days. The activity of protocollagen proline hydroxylase (PPH), an enzyme participating in collagen biosynthesis, and the hydroxyproline content of the ...
متن کاملEffects of tonin on the adrenal secretion in the rat.
Tonin infused intravenously at a rate of 12 micron g/kg/min for 2 hours stimulated aldosterone and corticosterone secretion in conscious rats. In pentobarbital-anesthetized rats treated with dexamethasone and morphine, tonin stimulated aldosterone secretion, but corticosterone was unaffected. Tonin did not stimulate steroidogenesis in isolated rat adrenal glomerulosa cells unless substrate, in ...
متن کاملApoptosis in pressure overload-induced heart hypertrophy in the rat.
Pressure overload induces cardiac growth in the rat, which implies the hypertrophy of cardiac muscle cells and proliferation of nonmuscle cells. The cardiac cell loss observed in parallel has generally been attributed to necrosis. Using an in situ assay, we demonstrated a phase of apoptosis or programmed cell death during the first 7 d after pressure overload with a peak at day 4 while cardiac ...
