BACKGROUND: Hypertension, the major risk factor for many cardiovascular diseases, is a result of multiple causes along with excessive generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) resulting in imbalance of redox status.
METHODS: In this study, we investigated the therapeutic potential of Adenoviral-Thioredoxin-1 (Adeno-Trx-1) in spontaneous hypertensive rats (SHRs) at a dosage of 1 x 10(9) pfu. The rats were assigned as normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY), SHR, SHR + Adeno-Lac-Z (SHRLac-Z), and SHR + Adeno-Trx-1 (SHRTrx-1). Echo-guided injection of adeno virus was done 48 h before permanent myocardial infarction (MI) by left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) occlusion.
RESULTS: Decreased infarct size (52 +/- 4.1% vs. 67 +/- 6.1%), number of apoptotic cardiomyocytes (161 +/- 14.8 vs. 240 +/- 22.2), left ventricular inner diameter (7 +/- 0.33 vs. 9 +/- 0.46 mm), increased ejection fraction (52 +/- 6.3 vs. 42 +/- 3.3%), and fractional shortening (28 +/- 1.8 vs. 22 +/- 2.04 %) was observed in the SHRTrx-1 compared to SHR. Western Blot and immunohistochemical analysis demonstrated increased expression of Trx-1, HO-1, and Bcl-2 in the SHRTrx-1 compared to SHR. In addition, increased HO-1 activity was also observed in SHRTrx-1 as compared to SHR and SHRLac-Z groups.
CONCLUSION: Our study demonstrates that the cardioprotective effect of Adeno-Trx-1 gene therapy in SHR is Trx-1/HO-1/Bcl-2 mediated and may represent future target to develop therapy against hypertension associated cardiac failure.
