| Sumario: | Congestive heart failure (CHF) would be associated with mitochondrial abnormalities and increased of reactive species of oxygen (ROS). To clarify these issues we studied the structure, function of the mitochondrial enzyme nitro oxide synthase inducible (iNOS) and lipoperoxidation of membranes, one of their products through the peroxide nitrite ion (ONOO-), in the heart muscle of patients with heart failure congestive (ICC) grade III and IV (according to New York Heart Association). We included 25 patients who underwent cardiovas-cular surgery to biopsies of the heart muscle. They were stratified into a group with CHF (n = 18) and control group (n = 7). In di-chas bi-opsies analyzed the enzymatic activity of mitochondrial complex III spectrophotometrically, which was measured in mM.ubiquinona-1.mg prot, while the mitochondrial morphology was analyzed by the Zeiss electron microscope, the areas were quantified with program Axionvision 4.6. Lipoperoxidation of membranes was measured by the presence of ONOO-by immunohistochemistry against primary an-tibody against 3-nitrotyrosine was used lab kit system biogenic steptobidin biotin peroxidase (SBA) and coloring triamiobencidina (TAB), it is made with semicuantificacion intensity SCORE test. The statistical test used was ANOVA. The heart muscle of patients with CHF showed that the mitochondrial area was reduced by 78% compared with the control (160.37 ?m2 ± 9.87) (936.81 ?m2 ± 78.48) p <0.0001. There was also a 70% reduction in complex III activity compared to control (1.9 10-2 mM ubiq.mim-prot 1.mg ± 12.6) (5.79 10-2mM ubiq.mim prot-1.mg ± 36.6) p <0.001. The presence of ONOO-was significantly increased in patients with CHF (p <0.05). Alterations ultraestructu-tural and functional mitochondria found in patients with CHF and increased ROS are involved in the measures of phy-siopathology CCI and whites should be taken into account for future therapies of this condition. |
