ABSTRACT
[ABSTRACT]AIM:
TodeterminetheeffectsofShensongyangxincapsule(SSYX)ontheventricularelectrical properties, structural remodeling and cardiac function in the rats with diabetes mellitus (DM).METHODS:
Male SD rats (n=45) were randomly divided into control group (n=15), DM group (n=15) and SSYX group (n=15).The rats in DM group and SSYX group were injected with streptozotocin (60 mg/kg, ip), while the rats in control group were given normal saline (1 mL/kg, ip).The blood samples were collected 72 h after treatment for determining the blood glucose lev-els in DM group and SSYX group .The model rats in SSYX group were administered with SSYX (1 g· kg-1 · d-1 , ig) for 6 weeks, while the other rats received normal saline (2 mL· kg-1· d-1, ig).The echocardiography was used to assess the cardiac function , and the lead II electrocardiogram was also recorded in all the animals .The radioimmunoassay and Masson trichrome staining were used to measure the plasma levels of endothelin -1 (ET-1) and the collagen deposition in the ventricles, respectively.A whole Langendorff-perfused heart model was used to conduct the electrophysiologic study .The monophasic action potential ( MAP) and the ventricular effective refractory period ( VERP) were recorded in the left anteri-or free wall ( LAF) , and the burst pacing was used to induce ventricular arrhythmia ( VA) .RESULTS:
Compared with control group, the VERP, action potential duration (APD), QT interval, incidence of VA, degree of myocardial fibrosis and plasma level of ET-1 were increased , while the cardiac function was declined in DM group .Compared with DM group , the VERP, APD, QT interval, incidence of VA, degree of myocardial fibrosis and plasma level of ET-1 were all de-creased, while the cardiac function was improved in SSYX group .CONCLUSION:
SSYX attenuates the electrical and structural remodeling and improves the cardiac function in DM rats .
