Roles of renin-angiotension system in cardiac mechanics and myocardial damage at early stage following severe scald in rats
Objective To investigate the changes of RAS and its effects to heart function and myocardial damage at early stage of rat scald. Methods The rats were grouped as control group (normal group and sham scald group
totally n=12) and scalded group (n=30). The rat model of 30% TBSA of full-thickness burns was made in 30 male Wistar rats. Hemodynamics and myocardiac mechanics index (SBP

whereas LVEDP increased significantly 1 h after scald (P0.01)
and peaked 6 h after scald. The levels of cTn-I

and AngⅡ and ACE in myocardium were increased obviously 1 h after scald (P0.01) compared with control group
and peaked 6 h after scald. No obvious changes of myocardiac ACE2 were detected before and after scald. Conclusion The changing tendency of ACE-AngⅡ axis similar to that of hemodynamic index and serum level of cTn-I indicted that ACE-AngⅡ axis of RAS plays an important role in myocardial damage at the early stage after scald. No obvious changes of ACE2 before and after scald may be one of the reasons to activate ACE-AngⅡ axis.
