Abstract

Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is the only heart failure (HF) therapy documented to improve left ventricular function and reduce mortality. The underlying mechanisms are incompletely understood. Although β-adrenergic signaling has been studied extensively, the effect of CRT on cholinergic signaling is unexplored. We hypothesized that remodeling of cholinergic signaling plays an important role in the aberrant calcium signaling and depressed contractile and β-adrenergic responsiveness in dyssynchronous HF that are restored by CRT. Canine tachypaced dyssynchronous HF and CRT models were generated to interrogate responses specific to dyssynchronous versus resynchronized ventricular contraction during hemodynamic decompensation. Echocardiographic, electrocardiographic, and invasive hemodynamic data were collected from normal controls, dyssynchronous HF and CRT models. Left ventricular tissue was used for biochemical analyses and functional measurements (calcium transient, sarcomere shortening) from isolated myocytes (n=42-104 myocytes per model; 6-9 hearts per model). Human left ventricular myocardium was obtained for biochemical analyses from explanted failing (n=18) and nonfailing (n=7) hearts. The M2 subtype of muscarini...Continue Reading
