Electrophysiological Remodeling of the Heart Owing to Rate

Although damage to the heart from inflammation and infarction are well-established stimuli that trigger major cardiac remodeling, it has been known since 1954 that a persistent supraventricular tachycardia also can alter cardiac structure and function.1 This clinical observation was exploited 8 years later when it was demonstrated that rapid stimulation of the normal heart could produce reversible congestive heart failure.2 Since then, rapid pacing has been used frequently to create an investigational animal model of heart failure. The effects of prolonged pacing-induced tachycardia, in the range of 250 bpm for 3 or 4 weeks, has been studied in depth in several animal species and has been shown to cause extensive myocardial remodeling. Biventricular enlargement with reduced wall thickness and no increase in muscle mass, reduced cross-sectional myocyte area and increased length, disarray of myofibril alignment and cytoarchitecture, increases in contractile protein degradation, and destruction of the supporting myocardial collagen matrix represent some of the structural changes contributing to reduced ventricular function.3 Diminished responsiveness to β-adrenoceptor stimulation caused by a reduction in β-receptor density and a variety of alterations in the adrenergic signaling processes also occur.4 Replacement fibrosis, loss of cells, and reactive hypertrophy of the remaining cells have been noted recently.5 mRNA levels for specific cytoskeletal proteins increase, along with alterations in cytoskeletal architecture6 and abnormalities in phospholamban.7 In pigs subjected to 3 weeks of a tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy, myocyte action potential showed reduced membrane resting potential, reduced amplitude and upstroke velocity, and prolonged duration at 90% repolarization. Peak L-type Ca2+ current density was reduced because of an absolute reduction in L-type Ca2+ current flow into the myocyte possibly caused by reduced open probability of the channel.8 However, in dogs that had rapid ventricular pacing for 3 to 4 weeks, action …
