Cardiac remodeling following reperfused acute myocardial infarction is linked to the concomitant evolution of vascular function as assessed by cardiovascular magnetic resonance.

ABSTRACT: Left ventricular (LV) remodeling following acute myocardial infarction (MI) is difficult to predict at an individual level although a possible interfering role of vascular function has yet to be considered to date. This study aimed to determine the extent to which this LV remodeling is influenced by the concomitant evolution of vascular function and LV loading conditions, as assessed by phase-contrast Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) of the ascending aorta.CMR was performed in 121 patients, 2-4 days after reperfusion of a first ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and 6 months thereafter. LV remodeling was: (i) assessed by the 6-month increase in end-diastolic volume (EDV) and/or ejection fraction (EF) and (ii) correlated with the indexed aortic stroke volume (mL.m-2), determined by a CMR phase-contrast sequence, along with derived functional vascular parameters (total peripheral vascular resistance (TPVR), total arterial compliance index, effective arterial elastance).At 6 months, most patients were under angiotensin enzyme converting inhibitors (86%) and beta-blockers (84%) and, on average, all functional vascular parameters were improved whereas blood pressure levels were not. An increase in EDV only (EDV+/EF-) was documented in 17% of patients at 6 months, in EF only (EDV-/EF+) in 31%, in both EDV and EF (EDV+/EF+) in 12% and neither EDV nor EF (EDV-/EF-) in 40%. The increase in EF was mainly and independently linked to a concomitant decline in TPVR (6-month change in mmHg.min.m2.L-1, EDV-/EF-: +1?±?8, EDV+/EF-: +3?±?9, EDV-/EF+: -7?±?6, EDV+/EF+: -15?±?20, p?

Project description:PurposeNitric oxide (NO) is constitutively produced and released from the endothelium and several blood cell types by the isoform 3 of the NO synthase (NOS3). We have shown that NO protects against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and that depletion of circulating NOS3 increases within 24 h of ischemia/reperfusion the size of myocardial infarction (MI) in chimeric mice devoid of circulating NOS3. In the current study we hypothesized that circulating NOS3 also affects remodeling of the left ventricle following reperfused MI.MethodsTo analyze the role of circulating NOS3 we transplanted bone marrow of NOS3-/- and wild type (WT) mice into WT mice, producing chimerae expressing NOS3 only in vascular endothelium (BC-/EC+) or in both, blood cells and vascular endothelium (BC+/EC+). Both groups underwent 60 min of coronary occlusion in a closed-chest model of reperfused MI. During the 3 weeks post MI, structural and functional LV remodeling was serially assessed (24 h, 4 d, 1 w, 2 w and 3 w) by echocardiography. At 72 hours post MI, gene expression of several extracellular matrix (ECM) modifying molecules was determined by quantitative RT-PCR analysis. At 3 weeks post MI, hemodynamics were obtained by pressure catheter, scar size and collagen content were quantified post mortem by Gomori's One-step trichrome staining.ResultsThree weeks post MI, LV end-systolic (53.2±5.9 μl; ***p≤0.001; n = 5) and end-diastolic volumes (82.7±5.6 μl; *p<0.05; n = 5) were significantly increased in BC-/EC+, along with decreased LV developed pressure (67.5±1.8 mm Hg; n = 18; ***p≤0.001) and increased scar size/left ventricle (19.5±1.5%; n = 13; **p≤0.01) compared to BC+/EC+ (ESV: 35.6±2.2 μl; EDV: 69.1±2.6 μl n = 8; LVDP: 83.2±3.2 mm Hg; n = 24; scar size/LV13.8±0.7%; n = 16). Myocardial scar of BC-/EC+ was characterized by increased total collagen content (20.2±0.8%; n = 13; ***p≤0.001) compared to BC+/EC+ (15.9±0.5; n = 16), and increased collagen type I and III subtypes.ConclusionCirculating NOS3 ameliorates maladaptive left ventricular remodeling following reperfused myocardial infarction.

Project description:OBJECTIVES:This study sought to determine whether T2 cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) can stage both hemorrhagic and nonhemorrhagic myocardial infarctions (MIs). BACKGROUND:CMR-based staging of MI with or without contrast agents relies on the resolution of T2 elevations in the chronic phase, but whether this approach can be used to stage both hemorrhagic and nonhemorrhagic MIs is unclear. METHODS:Hemorrhagic (n = 15) and nonhemorrhagic (n = 9) MIs were created in dogs. Multiparametric noncontrast mapping (T1, T2, and T2*) and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) were performed at 1.5- and 3.0-T at 5 days (acute) and 8 weeks (chronic) post-MI. CMR relaxation values and LGE intensities of hemorrhagic, peri-hemorrhagic, nonhemorrhagic, and remote territories were measured. Histopathology was performed to elucidate CMR findings. RESULTS:T2 of nonhemorrhagic MIs was significantly elevated in the acute phase relative to remote territories (1.5-T: 39.8 ± 12.8%; 3.0-T: 27.9 ± 16.5%; p < 0.0001 for both) but resolved to remote values by week 8 (1.5-T: -0.0 ± 3.2%; p = 0.678; 3.0-T: -0.5 ± 5.9%; p = 0.601). In hemorrhagic MI, T2 of hemorrhage core was significantly elevated in the acute phase (1.5-T: 17.7 ± 10.0%; 3.0-T: 8.6 ± 8.2%; p < 0.0001 for both) but decreased below remote values by week 8 (1.5-T: -8.2 ± 3.9%; 3.0-T: -5.6 ± 6.0%; p < 0.0001 for both). In contrast, T2 of the periphery of hemorrhage within the MI zone was significantly elevated in the acute phase relative to remote territories (1.5-T: 35.0 ± 16.1%; 3.0-T: 24.2 ± 10.4%; p < 0.0001 for both) and remained elevated at 8 weeks post-MI (1.5-T: 8.6 ± 5.1%; 3.0-T: 6.0 ± 3.3%; p < 0.0001 for both). The observed elevation of T2 in the peri-hemorrhagic zone of MIs and the absence of T2 elevation in nonhemorrhagic MIs were consistent with ongoing or absence of histological evidence of inflammation, respectively. CONCLUSIONS:Hemorrhagic MIs are associated with persisting myocardial inflammation and edema, which can confound staging of hemorrhagic MIs when T2 elevations alone are used to discriminate between acute and chronic MI. Moreover, given the poor prognosis in patients with hemorrhagic MI, CMR evidence for myocardial hemorrhage with persistent edema may evolve as a risk marker in patients after acute MI.
