N2 - Effects of an angiotensin II receptor blocker, irbesartan (IRB), on the development of atrial fibrosis and atrial fibrillation (AF) were assessed in a canine model of atrial tachycardia remodeling (ATR) with left ventricular dysfunction, together with its possible association with involvement of p53. Atrial tachypacing (400 bpm for 4 weeks) was used to induce ATR in beagles treated with placebo (ATR-dogs, n = 6) or irbesartan (IRB-dogs, n = 5). Non-paced sham dogs served as control (Control-dogs, n = 4). ATR- and IRB-dogs developed tachycardia-induced left ventricular dysfunction. Atrial effective refractory period (AERP) shortened (83 ± 5 ms, p < 0.05), inter-atrial conduction time prolonged (72 ± 2 ms, p < 0.05), and AF duration increased (29 ± 5 s, p < 0.05 vs. baseline) after 4 weeks in ATR-dogs. ATR-dogs also had a larger area of atrial fibrous tissue (5.2 ± 0.5 %, p < 0.05 vs. Control). All these changes, except for AERP, were attenuated in IRB-dogs (92 ± 3 ms, 56 ± 3 ms, 9 ± 5 s, and 2.5 ± 0.7 %, respectively; p < 0.05 vs. ATR for each). In ATR-dogs, p53 expression in the left atrium decreased by 42 % compared with Control-dogs (p < 0.05); however, it was highly expressed in IRB-dogs (+89 % vs. ATR). Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 expression was enhanced in ATR-dogs (p < 0.05 vs. Control) but reduced in IRB-dogs (p < 0.05 vs. ATR). Irbesartan suppresses atrial fibrosis and AF development in a canine ATR model with left ventricular dysfunction in association with p53.
