Abstract:
:RNAs isolated from normal and spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) rat heart tissues were examined by direct hybridization assay using cloned DNA probes containing chicken cardiac myosin light chain and heavy chain specific cDNA sequences. In 7 weeks old SHR heart, the level of mRNA hybridizable to these probes is the same as in normal rat heart. However, at 18 weeks of age, when hypertrophy in SHR is well established as a consequence of age-related increase in blood pressure and cardiac mass, there is an increase in SHR mRNA levels consistent with the increase in the corresponding proteins. Thus, the increase in mRNAs for major myofibrillar proteins and the onset of hypertrophic state in SHR appear to occur simultaneously.
