Effects of acute mixed hyperlipidemia on acute myocardial infarction size and its mechanism / 北京大学学报(医学版)

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effect of acute mixed hyperlipidemia on acute myocardial infarct size and the potential mechanism.Methods: Fifty-three Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were divided into three groups: the control group(n=15) was injected with 1.0 mL 0.9% sodium chloride,the low dose group(n=17) and high dose group(n=21) were injected with 0.5 mL and 1.0 mL 10% Triton WR-1339 solution respectively.Acute myocardial infarction was produced 24 hours after the injection.Serum lipid and the activity of lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2(Lp-PLA2) were measured before and 24 hours after the injection.Rats were killed 24 hours after ligation and their hearts were excised to evaluate the myocardial infarct size.Results: Serum total cholesterol(TC) and trig1ycerides(TG) concentrations were(6.92?1.48) mmol/L and(11.76?2.76) mmol/L in the low dose group 24 hours after injection,(11.91?0.87) mmol/L and(33.97?5.85) mmol/L in the high dose group,and both increased significantly compared with the baseline.Also serum low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C) concentration increased(P0.05).Myocardial infarct size was significantly(P
