Abstract:
Objective To investigate the changes of ataxia-telangiectasia mutated(ATM)-Akt in the myocardium around the infarcted zones and its intervention by phenylephrine in rats.Methods Myocardial infarction(MI) and sham operation were established in Sprague Dawley male rats by Litwin's method.Three days after operation,surviving rats were divided into MI group(n=8),sham operation group(n=8),MI phenylephrine intervention group [n=8,phenylephrine 0.65 mg/(kg?d),i.p.,for 8 weeks),and sham operation phenylephrine intervention group(n=8,phenylephrine administered as above).Cardiac left ventricular posterior wall end-diastolic thickness(LVPWd),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVDd),fractional shortening(FS) and ejection fraction(EF) were examined by Doppler ultrasonography.Twelve weeks after treatment,the expression of p-ATM substrate protein and p-Akt protein in the myocardium around the infarcted zones were detected by Western blot analysis and immunohistochemical assay respectively.Results In 12 weeks after treatment,LVDd(0.79?0.06) and(0.54?0.06) cm,FS(17.31?2.60)% and(38.58?2.56)%,and EF(67.75?3.54)% and(70.25?4.33)%(P0.05),and was(0.99?0.07) and(0.65?0.04) in MI phenylephrine intervention group and sham operation phenylephrine intervention group respectively(P0.05);and were(98.80?3.17) and(75.88?2.77) in MI phenylephrine intervention group and sham operation phenylephrine interventin group respectively(P
