BACKGROUND:Study on mouse models of hyperinsulinemia confirms that hyperinsulinemia can induce the occurrence of myocardial hypertrophy. OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of insulin on proliferation and hypertrophy of cardiomyocytes in neonatal mice in vitro cultured. DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:The in vitro cytology experiment was performed at the Key Laboratory of Anatomy,Histology and Embryology of Xinxiang Medical University from January 2006 to March 2007. MATERIALS:Twenty Wistar neonatal mice aged 1-3 days were used in this study. Insulin was obtained from Sigma,USA. METHODS:Cardiomyocytes of neonatal mice were in vitro harvested,culture and purified by trypsin digestion and differential attachment technique. Cardiomyocytes were incubated in 10-8,10-7,10-6 mol/L insulin for 48 hours. Blank control group was set up. 10-7 mol/L insulin group was used for cell cycle analysis. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Cell diameter,activity and counting were measured under a microscope. The expression of cyclin E in cardiomyocytes was measured using immunocytochemistry. RESULTS:Cardiomyocyte activity in each group was over 90%. Compared with the blank control group,long diameter and short diameter of cardiomyocytes in the 10-8,10-7,10-6 mol/L insulin groups were significantly increased(t=2.781 5,P 0.05) ,but the number of cardiomyocytes in the 10-6 mol/L insulin group significantly decreased(t=1.976 2,P

Objective To compare the differences of atria and atrial myocyte structure in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and sinus rhythm(SR) .To evaluate the influence of AF on cardiac function .Methods 79 patients without heart failure undergoing car-diopulmonary bypass surgery were divided into the AF group (n=39) and the SR group(n=40) .Echocardiography was performed for analysis of left ventricular end diastolic dimension(LVDd) ,left ventricular end-systolic dimension(LVDs) ,left ventricular poste-rior wall(LVPW) ,interventricular septum(IVS) and left atrial diameter(LAD) .Part of left atrial appendages was taken freshly for HE staining in order to observe atrial tissue structure .Results LVDd ,LVDs ,LVPW and IVS of the AF group were lower than that of the SR group .But LAD of the AF group was higher than the SR group .There was statistical significance in IVS and LAD between the two groups(P<0 .05) ,and there were no significant differences in other aspects (P>0 .05) .Compared with the SR group ,the AF group had thinner myocardial atrophy ,more obvious fibrosis ,smaller nucleus and darker HE staining .Conclusion The incidence of AF was mainly in rheumatic heart disease .The development of AF was mostly accompanied with the enlargement of LAD and the change of atrial tissue structure which showed that AF can reduce cardiac function .
