Abstract:
:To determine whether the attenuation in the growth capacity of myocytes in the overloaded aging heart is associated with an impairment in the activation of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and its receptor (IGF-1R) in the stressed cells, large myocardial infarcts were produced in Fischer 344 rats at 4 and 16 months of age, and the animals were killed 6 hours, 3 days, and 7 days later. After the documentation of cardiac failure, the unaffected myocytes were enzymatically dissociated, and the expression of IGF-1 and IGF-1R was measured at these three time points after surgery. The level of expression of IGF-1R mRNA increased at 3 days and remained elevated at 7 days in both age groups. In addition, an increase in IGF-1R protein in these cells was found, with no apparent difference with age. This phenomenon was coupled with an upregulation of IGF-1 mRNA of comparable magnitude in the younger and older animals. In contrast, the increases in the dimensional properties of myocytes were delayed and of smaller magnitude in the older infarcted rats. Moreover, the expression of atrial natriuretic factor, used as a molecular marker of myocyte cellular hypertrophy, was greater at 3 days in 4-month-old rats and at 7 days in 16-month-old rats. Thus, aging may affect the hypertrophic response of myocytes after infarction but has no impact on the ability of the cells to enhance the expression of IGF-1 and IGF-1R, which may sustain only in part the growth reserve mechanisms of the pathological heart.
