Abstract
Oxidative stress could be a possible mechanism and a therapeutic target of atrial fibrillation (AF). Xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibition reduces oxidative stress, but the effects of XO inhibitor on AF have not been evaluated. Hence, we assessed the effects of XO inhibitor, allopurinol, on progression of atrial vulnerability in dogs associated with tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy. The dogs were subjected to atrial tachypacing (ATP, 400 bpm) without atrioventricular block for 4 weeks. The dynamics of atrial-tachycardia remodeling were evaluated in allopurinol-treated dogs (ALO, n = 5), placebo-treated controls (CTL, n = 6), and sham-operated dogs (n = 6). In CTL dogs, 4 weeks of ATP significantly increased AF duration (DAF; from 0.2 ± 0.2 seconds to 173 ± 67 seconds, P < 0.05) and decreased atrial effective refractory period (ERP; from 152 ± 9 milliseconds to 80 ± 4 milliseconds at a cycle length of 350 milliseconds, P < 0.01). Allopurinol attenuated the ATP effects on ERP (118 ± 6 milliseconds, P < 0.01) or DAF (0.6 ± 0.3 seconds, P < 0.05). In CTL dogs, ATP-induced rapid ventricular responses decreased left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF; from 58.6 ± 0.1 to 23.5 ± 2.4%, P < 0.01), and increased left atrial diameter (LAD; f...Continue Reading
