摘要

There are fundamental differences between males and females with regard to susceptibility to heart disease. Although numerous animal models of heart failure have demonstrated that premenopausal females are afforded cardioprotection and, therefore, fare better in the face of cardiac disease than their male counterparts, many questions as to how this occurs still exist. Recently, we showed that 1) increased mast cell density is associated with adverse ventricular remodeling and 2) chemically induced mast cell degranulation using compound 48/80 resulted in remarkable changes in matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity, cardiac collagen structure, and cardiac diastolic function in normal male rats. With the known gender differences in cardiac disease in mind, we sought to examine the effects of chemically induced cardiac mast cell degranulation in isolated, blood-perfused hearts of intact female rats, ovariectomized female rats, and ovariectomized female rats treated with 17beta-estradiol. In response to mast cell degranulation, no significant differences in cardiac function, MMP-2 activity, or collagen volume fraction were observed between intact female rats and ovariectomized female rats treated with estrogen. In the ovariectomized female group, a significant rightward shift in the left ventricular pressure-volume relation, accompanied by a marked 133% increase in active MMP-2 values over that in the intact female group, was noted after treatment with compound 48/80 (P < or = 0.05), along with a significant reduction in collagen volume fraction below control (0.46 +/- 0.23 vs. 0.73 +/- 0.13%, P < or = 0.05). These findings indicate that estrogen's cardioprotective role can be partially mediated by its effects on cardiac mast cells, MMPs, and the extracellular matrix.
