Inflammatory Forms of Cardiomyocyte Cell Death in the Rat Model of Isoprenaline-Induced Takotsubo Syndrome.

ABSTRACT: Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is associated with inflammatory response, therefore the aim of the study was to evaluate the presence and dynamics of inflammatory-associated forms of cell death, necroptosis, and pyroptosis in the female rat model of isoprenaline (ISO)-induced TTS. TTS was induced in female Sprague Dawley rats (n = 36) by ISO 150 mg/kg intraperitoneally. Animals were divided into four groups: TTSO (TTS+ovariectomy; n = 10), TTSP (TTS+sham operation; n = 10), CO (0.9% NaCl+ovariectomy; n = 8), CP (0.9% NaCl+sham operation; n = 8). Histopathological analysis, evaluation of plasma concentration, and myocardial expression of pyroptosis- and necroptosis-associated proteins were performed. TTSO and TTSP groups had higher plasma concentrations of interleukin-1β in comparison with the con
