| Research Abstract |
Left coronary artery was ligated to induce large anterior myocardial infarction in both wild type and angiotensin type 1A knockout mice, and compared with each sham-operated mice. Four weeks after surgery, left ventricular end-diastolic and end-systolic dimensions were larger in myocardial infarction (WT/MI) than sham-operated wild type mice (WT/C). Cardiac dimensions were also higher, but to a lesser extent in angiotensin type 1A receptor knockout mice with myocardial infarction (KO/MI) than those with sham-operation (KO/C). Aldosterone synthase gene expression and protein levels in noninfarcted myocardium were higher in KO/MI than KO/C, as were in wild type mice. Coadministration of spironolactone prevented ventricular remodeling observed in KO/MI. We, next, attempted to create pressure-overloaded left ventricular hypertrophy induced by transverse aortic constriction (TAC) in these mice to determine if aldosterone production played a role in mediating cardiac remodeling independently

from renin-angiotensin system. Pressure gradient across aorta was approximately 80 mmHg, and there was no difference between WT/TAC and KO/TAC. Left ventricular end-diastolic dimension was larger in WT/TAC than WT/C, although there was no difference between KO/TAC and KO/C. Left ventricular end-systolic dimension was larger in KO/TAC than KO/C, as were in wild type mice. Fractional shortening was lower in KO/TAC than KO/C. Myocardial brain natriuretic peptide mRNA level was higher in KO/TAC than KO/C. Type I collagen mRNA was also higher in KO/TAC than KO/C, although there was no difference in type III collagen level between the two groups. Transforming growth factor-β1 mRNA level was also higher in KO/TAC than KO/C. Spironolactone prevented these morphological and biochemical alterations. These findings suggested that local production of aldosterone played a role in mediating cardiac remodeling in both myocardial infarction and pressure-overload hypertrophy independently from angiotensin signaling.
