clenbuterol and Cardiomegaly

clenbuterol has been researched along with Cardiomegaly in 7 studies

Clenbuterol: A substituted phenylaminoethanol that has beta-2 adrenomimetic properties at very low doses. It is used as a bronchodilator in asthma.
clenbuterol : A substituted aniline that is 2,6-dichloroaniline in which the hydrogen at position 4 has been replaced by a 2-(tert-butylamino)-1-hydroxyethyl group.

Cardiomegaly: Enlargement of the HEART, usually indicated by a cardiothoracic ratio above 0.50. Heart enlargement may involve the right, the left, or both HEART VENTRICLES or HEART ATRIA. Cardiomegaly is a nonspecific symptom seen in patients with chronic systolic heart failure (HEART FAILURE) or several forms of CARDIOMYOPATHIES.

" The beta 2-adrenoceptor agonist clenbuterol was used to investigate its potential to selectively induce skeletal muscle hypertrophy, particularly the latissimus dorsi muscle (LDM), independent of adverse effects on cardiac muscle."7.69Clenbuterol induces hypertrophy of the latissimus dorsi muscle and heart in the rat with molecular and phenotypic changes. ( Boheler, KR; Petrou, M; Wynne, DG; Yacoub, MH, 1995)
" When rats were fed with clenbuterol for 7 days skeletal muscle mass increased by 21% in the tonic soleus and phasic plantaris muscles and a 16% hypertrophy of the heart was also induced."7.68Effects of the cyclo-oxygenase inhibitor, fenbufen, on clenbuterol-induced hypertrophy of cardiac and skeletal muscle of rats. ( Bain, P; Delday, MI; Maltin, CA; McMillan, DN; Noble, BS; Palmer, RM, 1990)
" We have studied the induction of cardiac hypertrophy after treatment with clenbuterol and the role of polyamines in this effect."3.70Polyamine-mediated heart hypertrophy induced by clenbuterol in the mouse. ( Balaña-Fouce, R; Cubría, JC; Ordóñez, C; Ordóñez, D; Reguera, R, 1998)

"Clenbuterol treatment resulted in increased cell size of cardiac myocytes with increased protein accumulation and myofibrillar organisation characteristic of hypertrophic growth."1.36Clenbuterol induces cardiac myocyte hypertrophy via paracrine signalling and fibroblast-derived IGF-1. ( Barton, PJ; Bhavsar, PK; Brand, NJ; Cullen, ME; Felkin, LE; Luther, PK; Yacoub, MH, 2010)
"Clenbuterol treatment induced rapid development of cardiac hypertrophy with increased muscle mass at day 1 and elevated heart rate and QT interval throughout the 28-day period."1.35A gene expression profile of the myocardial response to clenbuterol. ( Barton, PJ; Felkin, LE; Lara-Pezzi, E; Smolenski, RT; Soppa, GK; Terracciano, CM; Yacoub, MH, 2009)
"Appropriate cardiac hypertrophy (CH) is necessary in several clinical settings, such as pulmonary artery banding in the two-stage arterial switch operation for transposition of the great arteries."1.30Pharmacological modulation of pressure-overload cardiac hypertrophy: changes in ventricular function, extracellular matrix, and gene expression. ( Boheler, KR; Petrou, M; Wong, K; Yacoub, MH, 1997)
