BACKGROUND: Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) can increase thrombogenesis risk, especially in the left atrium (LA). The exact mechanism is still unclear.
OBJECTIVE: We assessed the effects of PAF on endothelial function, and investigated if febuxostat (FX) can attenuate endothelial dysfunction by inhibition of xanthine oxidase (XO).
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Eighteen male New Zealand white rabbits were divided randomly into sham-operated (S), PAF (P) or FX+pacing (FP) groups. Group P and group FP received rapid atrial pacing (RAP). Group FP was administered febuxostat (FX) for 7days before RAP. Post-procedure, blood samples were collected from the LA, right atrium (RA) and peripheral circulation. Tissues from the LA and RA were obtained. Endothelial dysfunction (thrombomodulin [TM], von Willebrand factor [VWF], asymmetric dimethylarginine [ADMA]), and indirect thrombin generation (thrombin-antithrombin complex [TAT], prothrombin fragment 1+2 [F1.2]) and oxidative stress in atrial tissue (xanthine oxidase [XO], superoxide dismutase [SOD], malondialdehyde [MDA]) were measured using an Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Atrial endothelial expression of TM and VWF was measured by histology/western blotting.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Endothelial dysfunction (TM, VWF, ADMA), TAT generation and oxidative stress (XO, SOD, MDA) in group P were more significant compared with that in group S (p<0.05, respectively). In group P, all of these changes occurred to a greater extent in the LA compared with those in the RA or peripheral circulation. In group FP, FX attenuated endothelial dysfunction and reduced TAT levels by inhibition of XO-mediated oxidative stress. PAF can lead to endothelial dysfunction and TAT generation by XO-mediated oxidative stress. The LA is more susceptible to these effects. FX can attenuate these changes by inhibition XO and XO-mediated oxidative stress.
