Myocardial ischemia initiates a chain of pathol. conditions leading to cardiomyocyte death. Therefore, pharmacol. treatment to stop ischemia-induced damage is necessary. Fibrates, have been reported to decrease inflammatory markers and to modulate the renin-angiotensin system (RAS). Our aim was to explore if clofibrate treatment, administered one week after myocardial event, decreases MI-induced cardiac damage. Wistar rats were assigned to: 1. Sham or 2. Coronary artery ligation (MI). Seven days after, rats were subdivided to receive vehicle (V) or clofibrate [100 mg/kg (C)] daily for 7 days. Blood samples and left ventricle were analyzed. RAS components [angiotensin II, angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), and AT1-receptor] decreased in MI-C compared to MI-V, while [Ang-(1-7), bradykinin, ACE-2, and AT2-receptor] raised in response to clofibrate treatment. Oxidative stress markers increased in MI-V rats, a profile reverted in MI-C rats. Nitric oxide (NO) pathway (Akt, eNOS, and NO) exhibits a lower participation in MI-V, but clofibrate raised NO-pathway components and its production MI-induced fibrosis and structural damage was also improved by clofibrate-treatment. In conclusion, clofibrate administration to 7 days MI-rats exerts an antioxidant, pro-vasodilator expression profile, and anti-fibrotic effect suggesting that PPARα activation can be considered a therapeutic target to improve cardiac condition posterior to ischemia.
