摘要

Mast cells contain proteases capable of activating matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). However, given the relatively low density of mast cells in the myocardium (i.e., 1.5-5.3 cells/mm(2)), it is unknown whether these enzymes are present in sufficient quantities in the normal heart to mediate MMP activation. Accordingly, this study sought to determine whether chemically induced degranulation of cardiac mast cells (with compound 48/80) would have an effect in isolated, blood-perfused, functioning rat hearts. Mast cell degranulation produced a 15% increase in histamine levels present in the coronary efflux, a significant increase in myocardial water (i.e., edema) relative to normal values (80.1 +/- 3.4% vs. 77.4 +/- 1.08%, P < or = 0.03), a substantial activation of MMP-2 (126% increase relative to controls, P < or = 0.02), and a marked decrease in myocardial collagen volume fraction (0.46 +/- 0.10% vs. 0.97 +/- 0.33%, P < or = 0.001). Furthermore, although an increase in ventricular stiffness was expecteddue to the extent of edema resulting from mast cell degranulation, modest ventricular dilatation was observed. These findings clearly demonstrate that the number of mast cells present in normal hearts is sufficient to mediate activation of MMPs and produce extracellular matrix degradation, thereby potentially causing subsequent ventricular dilatation.
