Cardiac contractile dysfunction in Lep/Lep obesity is accompanied by NADPH oxidase activation, oxidative modification of sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase and myosin heavy chain isozyme switch

Abstract: Aims/hypothesis: Obesity is an independent risk factor for heart diseases but the underlying mechanism is not clear. This study examined cardiac contraction, oxidative stress, oxidative modification of sarco(endo) plasmic reticulum Ca 2+ -ATPase (SERCA) and the myosin heavy chain (MHC) isoform switch in obese mice. Methods: Mechanical properties were evaluated in ventricular myocytes from C57BL/6J lean and Lep/Lep obese mice (formerly known as ob/ob mice), including peak shortening (PS), time to 50 or 90% PS, … Show more

“…66, 67 The effect of AngII on SERCA pump is, at least partly, mediated through NADPH oxidase and ROS. 68 In multiple experimental models of heart failure, treatment with ACEI or ARB normalizes the intracellular calcium handling, 69-71 possibly contributing to the reduction their antiarrhythmic effects in this condition.…”
