Pathogenesis of Acute Stress Induced (Tako-tsubo) Cardiomyopathy: Energy Shut-Down or Intense Inflammation? (TERRIFIC)
Pathogenesis of Acute Stress Induced (Tako-tsubo) Cardiomyopathy: Energy Shut-Down or Intense Inflammation? The TERRIFIC Study
Study Overview

Conditions
Detailed Description
The investigators aim to study the reciprocal modulation of fatty acids and glucose metabolism in the Tako Tsubo Cardiomyopathy physiology, in both humans and an animal model, and to investigate which metabolic pathway is preferentially adopted by acute Tako Tsubo Cardiomyopathy myocytes during this severe functional shut down with largely preserved variability. The human model will be used to determine the preferential stimulated uptake of glucose/fatty acids under optimal metabolic conditions for each (hyperinsulineamic euglycemic clamp for 18F-Fludeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) and fasting for 14Fluorine-18Fluoro-6-Thia-Heptadecanoic Acid (18F-FTHA cardiac Positron Emission Tomography)). In the rat model the investigators will examine both the metabolic tracer uptake (using micro Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography) as well as the downstream modulation of the two metabolic pathways (transcriptional regulators, mitochondrial respiration, expression of the uncoupling proteins, levels of Adenosine Triphosphate generation and reactive oxygen species production).
The investigators aim to test the hypothesis that inflammation plays a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of this condition by further exploring: 1) In the rat model define time course, extent and subtypes of cellular infiltrate, 2) In the rat model of Tako Tsubo Cardiomyopathy, demonstrate the presence of inflammatory macrophages using in-vivo Ultrasmall Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide-cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and whether this relates to numbers and types of macrophages present as determined by immunohistochemical analysis, 3) In clinical patients, define the time course of specific peripheral blood monocyte subsets and the serum levels of inflammatory cytokines versus matched controls and 4) In clinical patients, establish the compartmentalisation of tissue macrophages in the left ventricle its time course resolution using Ultrasmall Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide-enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance.
The investigators will assess the psycho-emotional factors involved in Tako Tsubo Cardiomyopathy given that in the majority of cases intense emotional trauma is immediately preceding onset.
