Abstract：Objective To explore the effects of renal denervation (RDN) on hypothalamus angiotensinⅡ(AngⅡ) and oxidative stress in myocardial infarction (MI) dogs. Methods Eighteen mongrel dogs were randomly divided into MI group (n=6), RDN group (n=6) and sham operation group (n=6). Myocardial infarction model was made in the former two groups by gelatin sponge embolization of the left anterior descending artery. One week after MI, RDN was given to dogs in RDN group. Levels of AngⅡ, malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and expression of gp91phox protein were detected four weeks after MI. Results Compared with control group, hypothalamus AngⅡ, MDA and expression of gp91phox protein were increased in MI group (P<0.01), but SOD was decreased (P<0.01). There was a negative correlation between AngⅡand SOD activity in MI group (r=-0.849, P < 0.01). There was a positive correlation between AngⅡ and expression of gp91phox protein in MI group (r=0.950, P<0.01). Compared with MI group, hypothalamus AngⅡ, MDA and expression of gp91phox protein were decreased in RDN group (P<0.01), but SOD was increased (P<0.01). Conclusion RDN can de?crease the level of hypothalamus AngⅡand the level of hypothalamus oxidative stress, and improve heart function of MI dogs.
