Abstract:
AIM To study the experimental therapeutic effects of iptakalim hydrochloride(Ipt) on hypertensive cardiac remodeling in spontaneously hypertensive rats(SHR) and stroke prone spontaneously hypertensive rats(SHRsp). METHODS SHR at the age of 12 week old were treated ig with lisinopril 12 mg?kg -1 ?d -1 or Ipt 3 mg?kg -1 ?d -1 , once a day for 30 days. Age matched Wistar rats were used as normal control. 10 week old SHRsp were treated ig with Ipt 0 25,1 0 and 4 0 mg?kg -1 , once a day for 12 weeks. Age matched Wistar rats were used as normal control. After killing animals, the effects of Ipt on hypertensive cardiac remodeling were investigated. RESULTS During the 4 week experimental period, the systolic blood pressure(SBP) and heart rates(HR) of the untreated SHR were increased progressively. Ipt 3 mg?kg -1 ?d -1 could decrease SBP effectively and inhibit the increasing tendency of HR. Ipt had no effects on hypertensive cardiac remodeling in SHR. Under the same experimental conditions, lisinopril 12 mg?kg -1 ?d -1 could decrease SBP effe-ctively and had no effects on HR. The hypertensive cardiac remodeling could be alleviated by lisinopril. During the 12 week experimental period, the SBP of the untreated SHRsp were increased progressively. Ipt 0 25,1 0 and 4 0 mg?kg -1 could decrease the SBP of SHRsp effectively. Ipt at the doses of 0 25 and 1 0 mg?kg -1 had no effects on heart rates. But in the 4th week after administration of Ipt 4 0 mg?kg -1 , significant decrease in heart rates was observed. Compared with Wistar rats, the weight of left ventricle and septum(LV+S) and the ratio of LV+S to body weight(LV+S/BW) in untreated SHRsp were elevated significantly. Ipt 0 25, 1 0 and 4 0 mg?kg -1 ?d -1 could decrease LV+S and LV+S/BW significantly. CONCLUSION Ipt could decrease SBP of SHR and SHRsp effectively. The effects of Ipt on hypertensive cardiac remodeling were related with the experimental therapeutic period. After having been treated with Ipt for 4 weeks, the hypertensive cardiac remodeling could not be reversed. But after having been treated with Ipt for 12 weeks, the hypertensive cardiac remodeling could be reversed significantly.
