Abstract:
Aim To establish cerebrocardiac syndrome model in rats. Methods Right middle cerebral artery of rat was occluded (MCAO) with nylon thread and Ⅱ lead ECG was monitored continuously within 2 h to record the emerging of arrhythmias. 30 min, 2 h, 24 h after middle cerebral artery occlusion or 6 h reperfusion after 2 h occlusion, left ventricular myocardiums were observed with transmission electron microscope to find the morphological damage and brains were marked with TTC to locate infarction area. Results (14.9?11.4) minutes after MCAO, 71%(60/85)model rats had abnormal ECG changes including 38 %(32/85)premature ventricular contraction, 27 %(23/85)atrial premature beats, 5%(4/85)ventricular tachycardia, 1.2%(1/85)sinus tachycardia. Arrhythmias sustained (29.0?23.2 )minutes. Ventricular myocardial cell injury was obvious: chaotic and broken mitochondria ridges, aggregated chromatin under the nucleus membrane, deposited glycogen granules in the cytoplasma. 30 min, 2h, 24h after MCAO the infarction rates were 8.7%?1.1%,11.4%?2.3% and 13.7%?3.1% respectively. Conclusion A stable cerebrocardiac syndrome model in rat might be induced by means of occluding right middle cerebral artery and the morphological bases of cerebrogenic cardiac arrhythmias are myocardial cell injury caused by cerebral infarction.
