LV pressure-volume analysis showed that ventricular pacing reduced LV function to a similar extent after 15 minutes and 6 months of pacing, and local cardiac load regulates local cardiac mass of both myocytes and collagen.Abstract:
Background—Asynchronous electrical activation, induced by ventricular pacing, causes regional differences in workload, which is lower in early- than in late-activated regions. Because the myocardium usually adapts its mass and structure to altered workload, we investigated whether ventricular pacing leads to inhomogeneous hypertrophy and whether such adaptation, if any, affects global left ventricular (LV) pump function. Methods and Results—Eight dogs were paced at physiological heart rate for 6 months (AV sequential, AV interval 25 ms, ventricular electrode at the base of the LV free wall). Five dogs were sham operated and served as controls. Ventricular pacing increased QRS duration from 47.2±10.6 to 113±16.5 ms acutely and to 133.8±25.2 ms after 6 months. Two-dimensional echocardiographic measurements showed that LV cavity and wall volume increased significantly by 27±15% and 15±17%, respectively. The early-activated LV free wall became significantly (17±17%) thinner, whereas the late-activated septum ...read more

TL;DR: Ventricular desynchronization imposed by ventricular pacing even when AV synchrony is preserved increases the risk of HF hospitalization and AF in SND with normal baseline QRSd.

Mapping of regional myocardial strain and work during ventricular pacing: experimental study using magnetic resonance imaging tagging.
TL;DR: Ventricular pacing causes a threefold difference in myofiber work within the left ventricular (LV) wall, which appears large enough to regard local myocardial function as an important determinant for abnormalities in perfusion, metabolism, structure and pump function during asynchronous electrical activation.

TL;DR: Prolonged ventricular dyssynchrony induced by long-term endovenous RVP is associated with deleterious LV remodeling, LV dilatation, LV asymmetrical hypertrophy, and low exercise capacity.

Autocrine release of angiotensin II mediates stretch-induced hypertrophy of cardiac myocytes in vitro
TL;DR: Using an in vitro model of load (stretch)-induced cardiac hypertrophy, it is demonstrated that mechanical stretch causes release of angiotensin II (Ang II) from cardiac myocytes and that Ang II acts as an initial mediator of the stretch-induced hypertrophic response.

Remodeling of the rat right and left ventricles in experimental hypertension.
TL;DR: In experimental arterial hypertension in the rat, myocyte and nonmyocyte compartments of the myocardium are under separate controls: myocyte hypertrophy is most closely related to ventricular loading while circulating AII and AL, acting alone or in concert with other humoral factors, regulate the accumulation of collagen within the right and left ventricles.
