Although the mineralocorticoid-receptor antagonist spironolactone, in conjunction with renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors, has been shown to reduce mortality in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, its efficacy in managing degenerative MR is uncertain. In this study, we aimed to compare the effectiveness of valsartan (a renin-angiotensin system inhibitor), spironolactone, and combination therapy in mitigating MR-induced myocardial dysfunction. Using a mini-invasive model of degenerative MR, we administered valsartan (31 mg/kg/d), spironolactone (80 mg/kg/d), or a combination of both to rats over a 4-week period. Serial echocardiography and pressure-volume loops were utilized to assess cardiac function and hemodynamics. Rats with degenerative MR treated with valsartan or spironolactone alone did not show significant improvement in myocardial dysfunction. In contrast, combination therapy resulted in significant improvement. Similarly, the pressure-volume relationship was significantly improved in rats treated with the combination therapy compared with that in rats treated with a single therapy. Mechanistically, combination therapy effectively suppressed circulating and cardiac expression of aldosterone- and apoptosis-associated proteins. Overall, combination treatment with valsartan and spironolactone significantly attenuated the degenerative MR-induced myocardial stress and dysfunction, suggesting a potential therapeutic avenue for managing degenerative MR-induced heart failure.","PeriodicalId":15212,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology","volume":" ","pages":"410-417"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141901867","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study objective was to determine if chlorothiazide or metolazone is associated with differences in diuretic efficacy or safety in loop diuretic-resistant patients with AHF and renal dysfunction (eGFR <45 mL/min/1.73 m²). We conducted a multicenter, retrospective cohort study of patients hospitalized with AHF and renal dysfunction who received metolazone or chlorothiazide in addition to intravenous loop diuretics. The primary end point was a comparison of 24-hour urine output (UOP) between the 24 hours before and after thiazide administration. Secondary and safety end points included weight change, requirement for vasopressors or inotropes, electrolyte abnormalities, and changes in renal function. A total of 221 patients were included. The mean daily diuretic doses were chlorothiazide 632 mg and metolazone 7 mg. The mean 24-hour UOP increased more among chlorothiazide-treated (from 1668 mL to 3826 mL) versus metolazone-treated patients (from 1672 mL to 2834 mL) ( P < 0.001) after the addition of the second diuretic. Statistically significant reductions in serum creatinine were observed in the chlorothiazide group following 72 hours of treatment ( P = 0.016). More hypomagnesemia was observed in the chlorothiazide group; no differences in other electrolytes or changes in weight were observed. Overall, chlorothiazide was associated with a greater increase in 24-hour UOP than metolazone without an excess of potassium or serum creatinine derangements. However, weight changes did not differ significantly between groups.

The reduction of Cx43 has been known as a major inducer of arrhythmias after MIR, but the reason for the reduction of Cx43 remains largely unknown. The aim of this study was to find the key mechanism underlying the reduction of Cx43 after MIR and to screen out an herbal extract to attenuate arrhythmia after MIR. The differentially expressed genes in the peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMCs) after MIR were analyzed using the data from several gene expression omnibus data sets, followed by the identification in PBMCs and the serum of patients with myocardial infarction. Tumor necrosis factor superfamily protein 14 (TNFSF14) was increased in PBMCs and the serum of patients, which might be associated with the injury after MIR. The toxic effects of TNFSF14 on cardiomyocytes were investigated in vitro . Valtrate was screened out from several herbal extracts. Its protection against TNFSF14-induced injury was evaluated in cardiomyocytes and animal models with MIR. Recombinant TNFSF14 protein not only suppressed the viability of cardiomyocytes but also decreased Cx43 by stimulating the receptor LTβR. LTβR induces the competitive binding of MAX to MGA rather than the transcriptional factor c-Myc, thereby suppressing c-Myc-mediated transcription of Cx43. Valtrate promoted the N-linked glycosylation modification of LTβR, which reversed TNFSF14-induced reduction of Cx43 and attenuated arrhythmia after MIR. In all, valtrate suppresses TNFSF14-induced reduction of Cx43, thereby attenuating arrhythmia after MIR.","PeriodicalId":15212,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology","volume":" ","pages":"418-433"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141727295","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This population-based, retrospective observational study extracted data from the US Nationwide Inpatient Sample between 2005 and 2018. Adults aged 20 years or older hospitalized for AMI were eligible for inclusion. Propensity score matching was applied to balance the characteristics between the comparison groups (ie, with and without Sjogren syndrome). Associations between Sjogren syndrome and in-hospital outcomes were determined using univariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses. A total of 1,735,142 patients were included. After propensity score matching, 4740 patients remained for subsequent analyses (948 had Sjogren syndrome and 3792 did not). After adjustment, patients with Sjogren syndrome had significantly lower in-hospital mortality (adjusted OR: 0.52, 95% CI, 0.36-0.73, P < 0.001), prolonged length of stay (aOR: 0.83, 95% CI, 0.69-0.995, P = 0.044), cardiogenic shock (aOR: 0.58, 95% CI, 0.40-0.83, P = 0.004), cardiac dysrhythmias (aOR: 0.77, 95% CI, 0.66-0.90, P < 0.001), acute kidney injury (aOR: 0.56, 95% CI, 0.45-0.70, P < 0.001), or respiratory failure (aOR: 0.63, 95% CI, 0.48-0.81, P < 0.001) than those without Sjogren syndrome. The stratified analysis revealed that Sjogren syndrome was associated with decreased odds of in-hospital mortality in patients with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction or ST-elevation myocardial infarction. In conclusion, among patients admitted to US hospitals for AMI, the patients with Sjogren syndrome have a lowered probability of in-hospital mortality, certain morbidities, and prolonged length of stay. Further investigations should be conducted to establish a robust understanding of the associations observed.","PeriodicalId":15212,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology","volume":" ","pages":"394-399"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141723715","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We randomly divided 40 male Dahl salt-sensitive rats into 4 groups: the normal salt (NS) + PVN vehicle group, the NS + PVN HA group, the HS + PVN vehicle group, and the HS + PVN HA group, with 10 rats in each group. The rats in the NS groups were fed a NS diet containing 0.3% NaCl, while the HS groups were fed a HS diet containing 8% NaCl. The mean arterial pressure was calculated after noninvasive measurement using an automatic sphygmomanometer to occlude the tail cuff once a week.

We measured the levels of H 2 S in the PVN and plasma norepinephrine using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. In addition, we assessed the parameters of the MAPK pathway, inflammation, and oxidative stress through western blotting, immunohistochemical analysis, or real-time polymerase chain reaction. In this study, we discovered that decreased levels of endogenous hydrogen sulfide in the PVN contributed to the onset of HS-induced hypertension.

Phosphodiesterases (PDE) regulate cardiac electrical stability and may represent an interesting target. Recently, PDE8 inhibition was proposed as an antiarrhythmic intervention by increasing L-type Ca2+ current (ICa,L) and action potential duration (APD). However, the effect size of PDE8 inhibition on ICa,L and APD seems discrepant and effects on force are unknown. We investigated the impact of PDE8 inhibition on force using PF-04957325 in right atrial appendages, obtained from patients in sinus rhythm (SR) and with persistent AF (peAF) undergoing cardiac surgery. A computational model was employed to predict the effects of PDE8 inhibition on APD in SR and peAF. Results showed no increase in force after exposure to increasing concentrations of the PDE8 inhibitor PF-04957325 in either SR or peAF tissues. Furthermore, PDE8 inhibition did not affect the potency or efficacy of norepinephrine-induced inotropic effects in either group. Arrhythmic events triggered by norepinephrine were observed in both SR and peAF, but their frequency remained unaffected by PF-04957325 treatment. Computational modeling predicted that the reported increase in ICa,L induced by PDE8 inhibition would lead to substantial APD prolongation at all repolarization states, particularly in peAF. Our findings indicate that PDE8 inhibition does not significantly impact force or arrhythmogenicity in human atrial tissue.","PeriodicalId":15212,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology","volume":"42 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142252396","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Of note, two studies in single atrial hiPSC-CM reported prolongation of action potential duration by IKur block indicating that IKur might in fact represent a valuable target for the treatment of human AF. However, the results and interpretation are at odds with the literature on IKur block in human atria and the results of clinical studies. We believe that the discrepancies indicate that experiments in single atrial CM (both adult atrial CM and atrial hiPSC-CM) might be misleading. Under particular experimental conditions, atrial hiPSC-CMs may not closely resemble the electrophysiology of the human atrium.
