In the present study, we examined whether NF{kappa}B activation is required for cardiac hypertrophy in vivo. Cardiac hypertrophy in rats was induced by aortic banding for 1, 3, 5 days and 1-6 weeks and age-matched sham operated rats served as controls. In a separate group of rats, I{kappa}B{alpha} dominant negative mutant (I{kappa}B{alpha}M), a superrepressor of NF{kappa}B activation, or pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate (PDTC), an antioxidant which can inhibit NF{kappa}B activation, was administered to aortic banded rats for 3 weeks. The heart weight/body weight (HW/BW) ratio was significantly increased at 5 days following aortic banding, peaked at 4 weeks, and remained elevated at 6 weeks compared to age-matched sham controls. ANP and BNP mRNA expressions were significantly increased after 1 week of aortic banding, reached a maximum between 2 and 3 weeks, and remained increased at 6 weeks compared to age-matched sham controls. NF{kappa}B activity was significantly increased at 1 day, reached a peak at 3 weeks, and remained elevated at 6 weeks, and IKK{beta} activity was significantly increased at 1 day, peaked at 5 days, then decreased but remained elevated at 6 weeks following aortic banding compared to age-matched sham controls. Inhibiting NF{kappa}B activation in vivo by cardiac transfection of an I{kappa}B{alpha}M or by PDTC treatment significantly attenuated the development of cardiac hypertrophy in vivo with concomitant decrease in NF{kappa}B activity. Our results suggest that NF{kappa}B activation is required for the development of cardiac hypertrophy in vivo and NF{kappa}B could be an important target for inhibiting the development of cardiac hypertrophy in vivo.
