摘要


Atrial fibrillation (AF) is frequently associated with increased inflammatory response characterized by infiltration of monocytes/macrophages. The chemokine receptor CXCR-2 is a critical regulator of monocyte mobilization in hypertension and cardiac remodeling, but it is not known whether CXCR-2 is involved in the development of hypertensive AF. AF was induced by infusion of Ang II (angiotensin II; 2000 ng/kg per minute) for 3 weeks in male C57BL/6 wild-type mice, CXCR-2 knockout mice, bone marrow-reconstituted chimeric mice, and mice treated with the CXCR-2 inhibitor SB225002. Microarray analysis revealed that 4 chemokine ligands of CXCR-2 were significantly upregulated in the atria during 3 weeks of Ang II infusion. CXCR-2 expression and the number of CXCR2+ immune cells markedly increased in Ang II-infused atria in a time-dependent manner. Moreover, Ang II-infused wild-type mice had increased blood pressure, AF inducibility, atrial diameter, fibrosis, infiltration of macrophages, and superoxide production compared with saline-treated wild-type mice, whereas these effects were significantly attenuated in CXCR-2 knockout mice and wild-type mice transplanted with CXCR-2-deficient bone marrow cells or treated with SB225002. Moreover, circulating blood CXCL-1 levels and CXCR2+ monocyte counts were higher and associated with AF in human patients (n=31) compared with sinus rhythm controls (n=31). In summary, this study identified a novel role for CXCR-2 in driving monocyte infiltration of the atria, which accelerates atrial remodeling and AF after hypertension. Blocking CXCR-2 activation may serve as a new therapeutic strategy for AF.
