    Title: Effects of chloroacetaldehyde in 2-chloroethanol-induced cardiotoxicity

    Abstract: Cardiovascular effects have often been found in 2-chloroethanol (2-CE) intoxicated patients, but the 2-CE elicits cardiovascular toxicity mechanism is not clear. Recently, we have found that Chloroacetaldehyde (CAA) accumulation in 2-CE-intoxicated rats blood and play an important role in 2-CE intoxication. In this study, we used an isolated rat atrium model to examine the cardiotoxicity of 2-CE and CAA. Results indicated that 2-CE did not cause tension arrest in isolated rat right atria, but CAA did. 2-CE caused tension inhibition in the isolated rat left atria. In addition, CAA caused significant tension inhibition and contracture in the isolated rat left atria. Nifedipine, an L-type calcium channel blocker, decreased CAA-induced tension inhibition and contracture. Meanwhile, atrial nNOS and calmodulin (CaM) had significantly greater expression in the 2-CE group and the CAA group than control group. Nifedipine could decrease CAA-induced nNOS and CaM expression. 2-CE-induced cardiovascular toxicity might be due to its metabolite CAA. CAA-induced cardiovascular toxicity might be mediated by calcium channel and nifedipine protected against nNOS-triggered cardiovascular effects.
