ABSTRACT
Objective @#To investigate the effect and mechanism of endothelin-1 (ET-1) on atrial fibrosis in Atrial fibrillation (AF) rats .@*Methods @# Fourteen adult male SD rats were randomly divided into normal control ( NC) group and Atrial fibrillation (AF) group . The rat model of Atrial fibrillation was established by inj ecting 0.1 ml/ 100g CaCl2 Ach mixture into the tail vein once a day for one week . The control group was inj ected with the same dose of normal saline . An electrocardiogram of normal or atrial fibrillation was recorded on the first day and the eighth day in each group , and echocardiography was used to monitor atrial size and cardiac function . The fibrosis of atrial was ob served using Masson and HE staining. The expression of endothelin-1 ( ET-1) , collagen-I ( Col-I) , transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β) and the store operated calcium channel (SOCC) protein Orai1 , stromal in teraction molecule 1 (STIM1) in atrial tissue were detected by Western blot. HL-1 cells were cultured and treated with gradient concentration of ET-1 for 24 hours . Western blot was used to ob serve changes in the expression of TGF-β, Orai1 and STIM1 proteins in ET-1 /SOCC/TGF βsignaling pathway of HL-1 cells . Small interfering RNA ( siRNA) transfection method was used to knock down the expression of Orai1 in HL-1 cells , then the cells were treated with appropriate concentrations of ET-1 for 24 hours , and the expression of TGF-β protein in HL-1 cells was detected by Western blot.@*Results @#Compared with the control group , echocardiography showed a significant in crease in left atrial diameter (LAD) of the heart in atrial fibrillation rats (P < 0.05) . The HE and Masson staining results showed significant fibrosis in the myocardial tissue of AF group rats (P < 0.05) , and the Western blot re sults indicated the expression of ET-1 , Orai1 , STIM1 , TGF-β and COL-Ⅰ in the myocardial tissue of AF group significantly increased compared to the NC group (P < 0.05) . After ET 1 treatment of HL-1 cells , the protein ex pression of Orai1 , STIM1 and TGF βincreased (P < 0.05) , while knocking down Orai1 in HL-1 cells , ET-1 treat ment no longer caused the expression of TGF-β a significant upregulation .@*Conclusion @#AF caused by atrial fibril lation results in a significant increase in ET-1 expression in atrial tissue , and ET-1 /SOCC/TGF-β signal pathway promotes atrial fibrillation and fibrosis .
