Аннотация:After myocardial infarction, ventricular geometry and function, as well as energy metabolism, change markedly. In nonischemic heart failure, inhibition of xanthine oxidase (XO) improves mechanoenergetic coupling by improving contractile performance relative to a reduced energetic demand. However, the metabolic and contractile effects of XO inhibitors (XOIs) have not been characterized in failing hearts after infarction. After undergoing permanent coronary ligation, mice received a XOI (allopurinol or oxypurinol) or matching placebo in the daily drinking water. Four weeks later, 1H MRI and 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) were used to quantify in vivo functional and metabolic changes in postinfarction remodeled mouse myocardium and the effects of XOIs on that process. End-systolic (ESV) and end-diastolic volumes (EDV) were increased by more than sixfold after infarction, left ventricle (LV) mass doubled (P ----
