Proteomics analysis in myocardium of spontaneously hypertensive rats.

ABSTRACT: Hypertension-related left ventricular hypertrophy is recognized as a good predictor of adverse cardiovascular events. However, the underlying mechanism of left ventricular hypertrophy is still not fully understood. This study employed liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry to investigate global changes in protein profile in myocardium of spontaneously hypertensive rat, a classical animal model of essential hypertension. There were 369 differentially expressed proteins in myocardium between spontaneously hypertensive rats and normotensive rats. Xenobiotic catabolic process, cholesterol binding and mitochondrial proton-transporting ATP synthase were found to be the most significantly enriched biological process, molecular function and cellular component terms of Gene Ont
