Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Our previous studies reported that an oral low dose of donepezil, an acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor against Alzheimer’s disease, prevented ventricular remodeling and dysfunction after large myocardial infarction in rats without a bradycardiac effect, and that vagal nerve stimulation protected the heart against ischemia-induced ventricular tachyarrhythmias independent of a heart rate-slowing mechanism. This study demonstrated that pretreatment with acetylcholine (ACh), a neurotransmitter of cardiac vagal nerve endings, salvaged in vitro cardiomyocytes from prolonged hypoxia-induced cell death by preserving mitochondrial function and activating cell survival signals including PI3K/Akt/HIF-1α/VEGF and that ACh prevented hypoxia-induced loss of gap-junction channels to maintain cell-to-cell communication and electrical stability. From these results, we conclude that donepezil is a potent anti-heart failure drug.
