Hence, we investigated the feasibility of NICE in experimental cardiovascular set-ups involving healthy and infarcted myocardium in rats. Twenty-five male Wistar rats were examined under volatile anesthesia (2.5% isoflurane) with high-resolution conventional 2-D echocardiography (2DE) and real-time MICE (Sonos 7500 with 15MHz-transducer, Philips Medical Systems, Andover, MA, USA) in short-axis view. Contrast agent (SonoVue, Bracco, Milan, Italy) was infused as a bolus into a sublingual vein. Background-subtracted contrast signal intensity (SI) was measured off-line in six end-systolic segments and fitted to an exponential curve (gamma variate). Derived peak SI was subsequently calculated and compared with wall motion and common functional measured quantities (left ventricular end-diastolic diameter [LVEDD], area shortening [AS]). Recordings were performed before and 14 days after left anterior descending (LAD) ligature. Infarction induced anterior wall motion abnormalities (WMA) in all animals (16 akinetic, 9 hypokinetic), increased LVEDD (9.1 +/- 0.6 vs. 7.9 +/- 0.6 mm, p < 0.001), reduced AS (36.1 +/- 10.0 vs. 59.5 +/- 4.1%, p < 0.001) and reduced anterior segmental SI (0.4 +/- 0.4 dB akinetic / 1.7 +/- 1.7 dB hypokinetic vs. 15.8 +/- 10.9 dB preinfarct, p < 0.001 / p < 0.001). Segmental SI in normokinetic segments remained unchanged. Area at risk (perfusion defect) correlated well with WMA (r = 0.838). These data confirmed high-resolution real-time NICE as a rational tool for assessing myocardial perfusion of Wistar rats. It may therefore be a useful diagnostic tool for ill-vivo cardiovascular research in small animals."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1016/j.ultrasmedbio.2007.06.027"],["dc.identifier.gro","3143391"],["dc.identifier.isi","000252038900007"],["dc.identifier.pmid","17854980"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/899"],["dc.notes.intern","WoS Import 2017-03-10"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","PUB_WoS_Import"],["dc.publisher","Elsevier Science Inc"],["dc.relation.issn","0301-5629"],["dc.title","Real-time myocardial contrast echocardiography for assessing perfusion and function in healthy and infarcted Wistar rats"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

The aim of this study was to identify the limits of transthoracic echocardiography in a commonly used Wistar rat model by assessing intraobserver variability, interobserver variability, and day-to-day variability of examinations implying registrations and measurements. Methods Twenty male adult Wistar rats (body weight 496 52 g) were examined under volatile isoflurane anesthesia (heart rate 302 26 bpm) by transthoracic echocardiography (Sonos 7500; Philips) with a 15 MHz-transducer. For calculation of intraobserver variability, examinations were repeated by the same examiner and for interobserver variability, examinations were performed independently by two investigators. For day-to-day variability, examinations were repeated 14 days later. Left ventricular diameters and areas were analyzed in parasternal short axis and in a modified parasternal long axis. Fractional shortening, area shortening, ejection fraction, stroke volume, and cardiac output were calculated. Results Left ventricular end-diastolic diameter was 8.9 +/- 0.6 mm, fractional shortening 39.0 +/- 5.3%, area shortening 59.6 +/- 6.1%, ejection fraction 83.3 +/- 5.1%, stroke volume 0.24 +/- 0.06 ml, and cardiac output 72.9 +/- 20.6 ml/ min. Intraobserver variability of left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, fractional shortening, area shortening, and ejection fraction was less than 10%, increasing to 19% for stroke volume and cardiac output. Interobserver variability of left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, fractional shortening, area shortening, ejection fraction was less than 13%, increasing to 23% for stroke volume and 25% for cardiac output. Day-to-day variability of left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, area shortening, ejection fraction was less than 11% whereas for stroke volume it was 21% and for cardiac output it was 22%. F-ratio test comparing investigated variabilities did not reveal significant differences.

At present, most cardiac tissue engineering attempts utilize heart cells from embryonic chicken and neonatal rats and scaffold materials.

EHT display functional and morphological properties of differentiated heart muscle and call be constructed in different shape and size from collagen type I, extracellular matrix proteins (Matrigel(R)), and heart cells from neonatal rats and embryonic chicken.

I-1 is downregulated in failing hearts and thus contributes to beta-adrenergic desensitization. It is unclear whether this should be viewed as a predominantly adverse or protective response. We generated transgenic mice with cardiac-specific I-1 overexpression (I-1-TG) and evaluated cardiac function and responses to catecholamines in mice with targeted disruption of the I-1 gene (I-1-KO). Both groups were compared with their wild-type (WT) littermates. I-1-TG developed cardiac hypertrophy and mild dysfunction which was accompanied by a substantial compensatory increase in PP1 abundance and activity, confounding cause-effect relationships. I-1-KO had normal heart structure with mildly reduced sensitivity, but unchanged maximal contractile responses to beta-adrenergic stimulation, both in vitro and in vivo. Notably, I-1-KO were partially protected from lethal catecholamine-induced arrhythmias and from hypertrophy and dilation induced by a 7 day infusion with the beta-adrenergic agonist isoprenaline. Moreover, I-1-KO exhibited a partially preserved acute beta-adrenergic response after chronic isoprenaline, which was completely absent in similarly treated WT. At the molecular level, I-1-KO showed lower steady-state phosphorylation of the cardiac ryanodine receptor/Ca(2+) release channel and the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)-ATPase-regulating protein phospholamban. These alterations may lower the propensity for diastolic Ca(2+) release and Ca(2+) uptake and thus stabilize the SR and account for the protection. Taken together, loss of I-1 attenuates detrimental effects of catecholamines on the heart, suggesting I-1 downregulation in heart failure as a beneficial desensitization mechanism and I-1 inhibition as a potential novel strategy for heart failure treatment."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1093/cvr/cvn208"],["dc.identifier.gro","3143199"],["dc.identifier.isi","000260973500012"],["dc.identifier.pmid","18689792"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/687"],["dc.notes.intern","WoS Import 2017-03-10"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","PUB_WoS_Import"],["dc.publisher","Oxford Univ Press"],["dc.relation.issn","0008-6363"],["dc.title","Phosphatase inhibitor-1-deficient mice are protected from catecholamine-induced arrhythmias and myocardial hypertrophy"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

We hypothesize that survival and functional and electrical integration of grafts may be improved by engineering cardiac tissue constructs in vitro before grafting. Methods and Results Engineered heart tissue (EHT) was reconstituted by mixing cardiac myocytes from neonatal Fischer 344 rats with liquid collagen type I, matrigel, and serum-containing culture medium. EHTs were designed in circular shape (inner/outer diameter: 8/10 mm; thickness: 1 mm) to fit around the circumference of hearts from syngenic rats.

Baseline twitch tension amounted to 0.34±0.03 mN (n=33) and was stimulated by Ca 2+ and isoprenaline to 200±12 and 185±10% of baseline values, respectively. Despite utilization of a syngenic model immunosuppression (mg/kg BW: azathioprine 2, cyclosporine A 5, methylprednisolone 2) was necessary for EHT survival in vivo. Echocardiography conducted 7, 14, and 28 days after implantation demonstrated no change in left ventricular function compared with pre-OP values (n=9). Fourteen days after implantation, EHTs were heavily vascularized and retained a well organized heart muscle structure as indicated by immunolabeling of actinin, connexin 43, and cadherins.
