Aortic remodeling after transverse aortic constriction in mice is attenuated with AT1 receptor blockade.
OBJECTIVE Although hypertension is the most common risk factor for thoracic aortic diseases, it is not understood how increased pressures on the ascending aorta lead to aortic aneurysms. We investigated the role of angiotensin II type 1 receptor activation in ascending aortic remodeling in response to increased biomechanical forces using a transverse aortic constriction (TAC) mouse model. APP...
متن کاملLV systolic performance improves with development of hypertrophy after transverse aortic constriction in mice.
Transverse aortic constriction (TAC) is an effective technique for inducing left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy in mice. With the use of transthoracic echocardiography and Doppler measurements, we studied the effects of an acute increase in pressure overload on LV contractile performance and peak systolic wall stress index (WSI) at early time points after TAC and the time course of the developmen...

متن کاملTransverse aortic constriction leads to accelerated heart failure in mice lacking PPAR - coactivator 1
Heart failure is accompanied by important defects in metabolism. The transcriptional coactivator peroxisome proliferator-activated receptorcoactivator 1 (PGC-1 ) is a powerful regulator of mitochondrial biology and metabolism. PGC-1 and numerous genes regulated by PGC-1 are repressed in models of cardiac stress, such as that generated by transverse aortic constriction (TAC). This finding has su...
متن کاملCardioprotective Effects of QiShenYiQi Dripping Pills on Transverse Aortic Constriction-Induced Heart Failure in Mice
QiShenYiQi dripping pills (QSYQ), a traditional Chinese medicine, are commonly used to treat coronary heart disease, and QSYQ was recently approved as a complementary treatment for ischemic heart failure in China. However, only few studies reported on whether QSYQ exerts a protective effect on heart failure induced by pressure overload. In this study, we explored the role of QSYQ in a mouse mod...
