1, 25 dihydroxyvitamin d3 protects the heart against pressure overload-induced hypertrophy without affecting sirt1 mrna level

چکیده
background and aims: there has been scant information concerning antihypertrophic effects of vitamin d specifically on its cellular and molecular mechanisms. sirtuin 1 (sirt1) is regarded as a key deacetylase enzyme in cardiomyocytes which applies potential cardioprotective effects by functional regulation of different proteins. this study aimed to evaluate the effects of 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin d on the hypertrophic markers and cardiac level of sirt1 mrna in rats following the aortic banding. material and methods: in this study, male wistar rats (170-220g) were used, which were divided into 4 groups: rats subjected to hypertrophy without treatment (h), rats pretreated with 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin d3 (h+vd), rats received propyleneglycol as a vitamin solvent (h+p), and intact animals which were elected as the control group. arterial blood pressure was directly measured by the carotid cannulation. transcription level of target genes was measured by real time polymerase chain reaction technique. results: in h+vd group, systolic blood pressure as well as heart weight-to-body weight ratio decreased significantly compared to the group h (p<0.01). moreover, regarding hypertrophy marker genes in h+vd group, both atrial natriuretic peptide mrna (h+vd:64.8±14% vs. h:127±26% p<0.05) and brain natriuretic peptide mrna (h+vd:25.6±6% vs. h:84.2±12% p<0.01) levels decreased significantly. sirt1 mrna level was increased by 56.8±14% in group h and by 42.6±12% in group h+vd which were significant in comparison to the control group (p<0.01 and p<0.05, respectively). no significant difference was noted between h+vd and h groups. conclusions: the results of the present study revealed that administration of 1, 25- dihydroxyvitamin d decreases myocardial hypertrophy markers in rats following the abdominal aortic banding. the pressure overload-induced hypertrophy accompanies with sirt1 mrna upregulation, though antihypertrophic effects of vitamin didnot participate in sirt1 transcription level.

متن کاملCardiac Hypertrophy Stem Cell Antigen 1 Protects Against Cardiac Hypertrophy and Fibrosis After Pressure Overload
Stem cell antigen (Sca) 1, a glycosyl phosphatidylinositol-anchored protein localized to lipid rafts, is upregulated in the heart during myocardial infarction and renovascular hypertension-induced cardiac hypertrophy. It has been suggested that Sca-1 plays an important role in myocardial infarction. To investigate the role of Sca-1 in cardiac hypertrophy, we performed aortic banding in Sca-1 ca...
متن کاملSanggenon C protects against pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy via the calcineurin/NFAT2 pathway
The effects of Sanggenon C on oxidative stress and inflammation have previously been reported; however, little is currently known regarding the effects of Sanggenon C on cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis. In the present study, aortic banding (AB) was performed on mice to induce cardiac hypertrophy. After 1 week AB surgery, mice were treated daily with 10 or 20 mg/kg Sanggenon C for 3 weeks. Subs...
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 ...
متن کاملAngiotensin‐Converting Enzyme 3 (ACE3) Protects Against Pressure Overload‐Induced Cardiac Hypertrophy
BACKGROUND Angiotensin-converting enzyme 3 (ACE3) is a recently defined homolog of ACE. However, the pathophysiological function of ACE3 is largely unknown. Here, we aim to explore the role of ACE3 in pathological cardiac hypertrophy. METHODS AND RESULTS Neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCMs) with gain and loss of function of ACE3 and mice with global knockout or cardiac-specific overexpression ...
متن کاملStachydrine Protects Against Pressure Overload-Induced Cardiac Hypertrophy by Suppressing Autophagy.
BACKGROUND Autophagy is required for the maintenance of cardiomyocyte homeostasis. However, excessive autophagy plays a maladaptive role in pressure overload-induced heart failure. To identify mechanisms by which Stachydrine inhibits pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy, we determined inhibitory activities against activation of NADPH oxidase, reactive oxygen species(ROS) production and...
