- 概要:
- Structural remodeling occurs in diverse heart diseases and affects their clinical courses. We reportedthat amiodarone suppresses both electrical and structural remodeling in a canine persistent atrial fi brillation model.As a mechanism for … amiodarone’s effect on structural remodeling, we suggested its inhibitory effect on matrixmetalloproteinase( MMP) activity. To elucidate it, we investigated the eff ect of amiodarone on MMP activity in a ratmyocardial infarction model created by left coronary artery( LCA) ligation. Adult Sprague-Dawley rats were dividedinto sham-operated (Sham), sham-operated with amiodarone (Sham+AMD), LCA-ligated without amiodarone (MI)and LCA-ligated with amiodarone rats (MI+AMD). Amiodarone (20 mg/kg/day) was administered for 2 weeksbefore and for 4 weeks after operation. The hearts were excised at 4 weeks after operation. MMP-2 activity wasmeasured by gelatin zymography. At 4 weeks after surgery, left ventricular fractional shortening was decreased inMI but not in MI+AMD rats. There was no diff erence in the infarct size between MI and MI+AMD rats (P=NS).As compared with Sham, MMP-2 activity was increased in MI (P<0.01), but not in MI+AMD (P=NS versus Sham;P<0.05 versus MI). MMP-2 activity was not increased in Sham+AMD( P=NS). Thus, amiodarone exerts an inhibitoryeff ect on MMP activity. This may be related to the improvement left ventricular function in MI rats. 続きを見る
