ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate the roles of oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation in the ventricular remodeling that is induced by tobacco smoke exposure after myocardial infarction.METHODS:
After induced myocardial infarction, rats were allocated into two groups C (control, n=25) and ETS (exposed to tobacco smoke, n=24). After 6 months, survivors were submitted to echocardiogram and biochemical analyses.RESULTS:
Rats in the ETS group showed higher diastolic (C = 1.52 ± 0.4 mm2, ETS = 1.95 ± 0.4 mm2; p=0.032) and systolic (C = 1.03 ± 0.3, ETS = 1.36 ± 0.4 mm2/g; p=0.049) ventricular areas, adjusted for body weight. The fractional area change was smaller in the ETS group (C = 30.3 ± 10.1 %, ETS = 19.2 ± 11.1 %; p=0.024) and E/A ratios were higher in ETS animals (C = 2.3 ± 2.2, ETS = 5.1 ± 2.5; p=0.037). ETS was also associated with a higher water percentage in the lung (C = 4.8 (4.3-4.8), ETS = 5.5 (5.3-5.6); p=0.013) as well as higher cardiac levels of reduced glutathione (C = 20.7 ± 7.6 nmol/mg of protein, ETS = 40.7 ± 12.7 nmol/mg of protein; p=0.037) and oxidized glutathione (C = 0.3 ± 0.1 nmol/g of protein, ETS = 0.9 ± 0.3 nmol/g of protein; p=0.008). No differences were observed in lipid hydroperoxide levels (C = 0.4 ± 0.2 nmol/mg of tissue, ETS = 0.1 ± 0.1 nmol/mg of tissue; p=0.08).CONCLUSION:
In animals exposed to tobacco smoke, oxidative stress is associated with the intensification of ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarction.
