Abstract

Background— We investigated the potential contributions of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) on the incidence of acute myocardial rupture and subsequent chronic cardiac dysfunction after myocardial infarction (MI) in TNF knockout (TNF −/− ) mice compared with C57/BL wild-type (WT) mice. Methods and Results— Animals were randomized to left anterior descending ligation or sham operation and killed on days 3, 7, 14, and 28. We monitored cardiac rupture rate, cardiac function, inflammatory response, collagen degradation, and net collagen formation. We found the following: (1) within 1 week after MI, 53.3% (n=120) of WT mice died of cardiac rupture, in contrast to 2.5% (n=80) of TNF −/− mice; (2) inflammatory cell infiltration and cytokine expression were significantly higher in the infarct zone in WT than TNF −/− mice on day 3; (3) matrix metalloproteinase-9 and -2 activity in the infarcted myocardium was significantly higher in WT than in TNF −/− mice on day 3; (4) on day 28 after MI compared with sham, there was a significant decrease in LV developed pressure (74%) and ±dP/dt max (68.3%/65.3%) in WT mice but a less significant decrease in ±dP/dt max (25.8%/28.8%) in TNF −/− mice; (5) cardiac collagen volume fraction was lower in WT than in TNF −/− mice on days 3 and 7 but higher on day 28 compared with TNF −/− mice; and (6) a reduction in myocyte apoptosis in TNF −/− mice occurred on day 28 compared with WT mice. Conclusions— Elevated local TNF-α in the infarcted myocardium contributes to acute myocardial rupture and chronic left ventricle dysfunction by inducing exuberant local inflammatory response, matrix and collagen degradation, increased matrix metalloproteinase activity, and apoptosis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
