Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of xanthine oxidase inhibitors allopurinol on collagen remodeling of non-infarcted myocardium after myocardial infarction in rats.Methods Myocardial infarction models were produced by ligation of anterior descending coronary artery.The survivals were randomly divided into 3 groups:sham operation group, MI group and allopurinol group(50 mg/kg).On the 7th, 14th, 21st and 28th day respectively, the collagen content were examined. The type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ collagen volume fraction(CVF) and Ⅰ/Ⅲ ratio in non-infarcted zones(NIZ) were examined with PSR staining, mRNA expressions were detected with RT-PCR, the activities of xanthine oxidase(XO) and O—?2,?OH-scavenging in NIZ were examined by colorimetry.In addition, the expression of XO protein by Western blotting analysis and pathological change in LV were detected on the 28th day.ResultsCompared with sham group,the mRNA expressions, CVF of typeⅠand type Ⅲ collagen in NIZ were increased in MI group.The typeⅠ/Ⅲ ratio in NIZ was increased after decreased.The collagen content and activity of XO were boosted but the activities of O—?2,?OH-scavenging were decreased(P
