    الوصف: Contains fulltext : 295921.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access) ; In the past 2 decades, research on atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease has uncovered inflammation to be a key driver of the pathophysiological process. A pressing need therefore exists to quantitatively and longitudinally probe inflammation, in preclinical models and in cardiovascular disease patients, ideally using non-invasive methods and at multiple levels. Here, we developed and employed in vivo multiparametric imaging approaches to investigate the immune response following myocardial infarction. The myocardial infarction models encompassed either transient or permanent left anterior descending coronary artery occlusion in C57BL/6 and Apoe(-/-)mice. We performed nanotracer-based fluorine magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography (PET) imaging using a CD11b-specific nanobody and a C-C motif chemokine receptor 2-binding probe. We found that immune cell influx in the infarct was more pronounced in the permanent occlusion model. Further, using (18)F-fluorothymidine and (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose PET, we detected increased hematopoietic activity after myocardial infarction, with no difference between the models. Finally, we observed persistent systemic inflammation and exacerbated atherosclerosis in Apoe(-/-) mice, regardless of which infarction model was used. Taken together, we showed the strengths and capabilities of multiparametric imaging in detecting inflammatory activity in cardiovascular disease, which augments the development of clinical readouts. ; 01 juli 2023

    الوصف: The clinical manifestations of LVH worsen with age. Experimental models of aging suggest that this may be mediated, at least in part, by abnormalities in myocardial blood flow (MBF) and intermediary metabolism (i.e. fatty acids). Furthermore, animal models of LVH have shown a reduction in myocardial fatty acid utilization (MFAU). To determine whether abnormalities in MFAU are present in the normal elderly (E) and in patients with hypertension and LVH, measurements of MBF (ml/g/min), myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO2, μmol/g/min), and fasting MFAU (μmol/g/min) were measured at rest using positron emission tomography in 4 patients with hypertension and LVH (age 63 ± 8; 3 male; LV mass index 106 ± 13 g/m2), 6 normal elderly subjects (age 64 ± 4; 4 male), and 3 normal young (Y) subjects (age 24 ± 1; 3 male). All groups had normal exercise stress echocardiograms, fasting lipid and glucose levels, and were nondiabetic and nonsmokers. Levels of MBF, MVO2, and plasma free fatty acids were similar for all groups (p=NS for all). The MFAU (corrected for MVO2) in the normal elderly was lower compared with normal young (3.2 × 10−2 ± 5.3 × 10−3 vs. 4.1 × 10−2 ± 7.1 × 10−3, p=0.03, respectively), and was even lower in the hypertension and LVH patients (2.3 × 10−2 ± 4.2 × 10−3, p=0.04 vs E and p<0.01 vs Y, see figure). These results demonstrate altered metabolic function in normal aging, and these alterations are even more marked in patients of similar age with hypertension and LVH. Thus, the myocardial metabolic response to aging may predispose to the clinical cardiovascular manifestations of LVH.
