Effects of Shenmai injection on hemodynamics of isolated heart in rats of myocardial infarction / 国际中医中药杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the effects of Shenmai injection on cardiac hemodynamics of isolated heart in rats of myocardial infarction model. Methods 30 myocardial infarction rat models created by ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery were randomly divided into a model group, a captopril group and a Shenmai group. 24 hours after successfully setup the models, all rat models were executed and their hearts were taken. Langendorff isolated heart perfusion method was adopted, and each group was perfused with 0.05mol/L amount of corresponding medicine, the model group was perfused with KH nutritive medium. left ventricular peak pressure(LVSP)and left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF), left ventricular pressure increase/decrease rate(dp/dtmax±LV)(mmHg/s)and left ventricular end systolic diameter(LVESD)(%)and left ventricular end diastolic diameter(LVEDD)(%) was observed 5 min before the perfusion and 0.5 h, 1 h, 2 h after the perfusion. Results LVSP(9.47%± 0.15%vs. 3.34%± 0.05%),(11.25%± 1.31%vs. 3.79%± 0.04%) and LVEF reducing rate (7.44%± 0.10%vs. 4.94%± 0.04%), (10.24%± 0.31%vs. 5.34%± 0.05%) were elevated, and ±dp/dtmax(5 011 ± 253 mmHg/s vs. 5 827 ± 227 mmHg/s), (4 732 ± 212 mmHg/s vs. 5 837 ± 254 mmHg/s);(3 139 ± 127 mmHg/s vs. 4 722 ± 231 mmHg/s), (2 997 ± 125 mmHg/s vs. 4 793 ± 241 mmHg/s) was reduced in the Shenmai group 1 and 2 hours after the administration, which showed statistical difference compared to the model group (P<0.05). Conclusions Shenmai injection reduce myocardial contractility and intraventricular pressure of isolated heart o myocardial infarction rat models.
