ABSTRACT
AIM:
To investigate the relation between myocardial remodeling and the genesis of serum anti-?_3-adrenoceptor autoantibody,an animal model of heart failure(HF) was established and the biological effects of the autoantibody were observed.METHODS:
(1) Healthy male Wistar rats were subjected to HF by constricting the abdominal aorta.(2) The anti-?_3-adrenoceptor autoantibody in the sera of HF rats was detected by ELISA with the synthetic peptide of the second extracellular loop of the ?_3-adrenoceptor used as the antigen.(3) IgG in the positive sera from HF rats was prepared using a MabTrap Kit(Amersham).(4) The effects of the autoantibody on the contractile response of adult(isolated) cardiomyocytes and on the beating rate of cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were observed.RESULTS:
(1) The positive rate of anti-?_3-adrenoceptor autoantibody of rats increased from 21.05% of pretreatment to 78.95% after heart failure(P
