ObjectivesWe investigated the effects of a novel ultrapotent poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor, PJ34, on cardiac and endothelial dysfunction in a rat model of chronic heart failure (CHF).BackgroundOveractivation of the nuclear enzyme PARP importantly contributes to the development of cell dysfunction and tissue injury in various pathophysiologic conditions associated with oxidative stress, including myocardial reperfusion injury, heart transplantation, stroke, shock, and diabetes.MethodsChronic heart failure was induced in Wistar rats by chronic ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery. Left ventricular (LV) function and ex vivo vascular contractility and relaxation were measured 10 weeks after the surgery. Nitrotyrosine (NT) formation and PARP activation were detected by immunohistochemistry.ResultsChronic heart failure induced increased NT formation and PARP activation in the myocardium and intramural vasculature, depressed LV performance, and impaired vascular relaxation of aortic rings. PJ34 significantly decreased myocardial PARP activation but not NT formation, and improved both cardiac dysfunction and vascular relaxation.ConclusionsPoly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibition represents a novel approach for the experimental treatment of CHF.
