Hyperoxia-induced hypertrophy and ion channel remodeling in left ventricle.
Ventricular arrhythmias account for high mortality in cardiopulmonary patients in intensive care units. Cardiovascular alterations and molecular-level changes in response to the commonly used oxygen treatment remains unknown. In the present study we investigated cardiac hypertrophy and cardiac complications in mice subjected to hyperoxia. Results demonstrate that there is a significant increase...
متن کاملRegional nonuniformity of normal adult human left ventricle.
Regional nonuniformity is a feature of both diseased and normal left ventricles (LV). With the use of magnetic resonance (MR) myocardial tagging, we performed three-dimensional strain analysis on 87 healthy adults in local cardiac and fiber coordinate systems (radial, circumferential, longitudinal, and fiber strains) to characterize normal nonuniformities and to test the validity of wall thicke...
متن کاملUnloading-induced remodeling in the normal and hypertrophic left ventricle.
To date, no study has assessed the degree of similarity between left ventricular (LV) reverse remodeling and atrophic remodeling. Stable LV hypertrophy was induced by creation of an arteriovenous fistula (AVF) in Lewis rats (32 days). LV unloading was induced by heterotopic transplantation of normal (NL-HT) and/or hypertrophic (AVF-HT) hearts (7 days). We compared indexes of remodeling in AVF, ...
متن کاملrelease in catecholamine-induced cardiac hypertrophy
Objective: Catecholamines that accompany acute physiological stress are also involved in mediating the development of hypertrophy and failure. However, the cellular mechanisms involved in catecholamine-induced cardiac hypertrophy, particularly Ca + handling, are largely unknown. We therefore investigated the effects of cardiac hypertrophy, produced by isoprenaline, on INa/Ca and sarcoplasmic re...
متن کاملECG-based detection of left ventricle hypertrophy
Introduction: Left ventricle hypertrophy (LVH) is an important risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. It is characterized by a thickening of the walls of the left ventricle. The transthoracic echocardiogram is a very accurate method for LVH detection. However, the electrocardiogram (ECG) offers an alternative method in diagnosing LVH, besides being less expensive and easier to ...
