Measurements and Scaling of Vascular Mechanics in Large and Small Mammals Craig J. Hartley, Ph.D. Department of Medicine, Program in CV Sciences Baylor College of Medicine, The Methodist Hospital, and The DeBakey Heart Center, Houston, TX USA

Craig J. Hartley, Ph.D. Professor of Medicine, Program in Cardiovascular Sciences Director, Instrumentation Development Laboratory The DeBakey Heart and Vascular Center Baylor College of Medicine and The Methodist Hospital Houston, Texas Ph.D. Electrical Engineering, Univ. of Washington, 1970 Post Doctoral Fellow, Bioengineering, Rice Univ. 1970-72 Faculty at Baylor College of Medicine 1973 - Present Adjunct Professor of BME at Rice and Univ. of Houston Dissertation: "Ultrasonic properties of artery walls."

About 15 years ago we started using mice in our research, and we wondered if we could adapt what we had developed for use in patients and larger animals for use in mice. “Have a nice day at the lab, dear?” And could we do it noninvasively so our patients don't go home like this.

Genomics Why use mice? or genetic engineering Allows us to study human cardiovascular diseases and conditions such as: cardiac hypertrophy, atherosclerosis, hypertension, aging, and many others. But… How similar are the cardiovascular systems? Why use mice?

Comparison of Heart sizes Dog Rat Mouse

Does the size difference matter? Are mice good models for human diseases? Does the size difference matter? What are the similarities and differences? Mice are much smaller and shorter lived, but Their cardiovascular systems appear similar.

Dawson, “Engineering design of the cardiovascular system of mammals” , Prentice Hall, 1991. How to these theoretically derived relationships compare with reality?

Pulse-wave velocity measurements in mice Probe (((( 20 MHz Doppler 40 mm ECG Sample Volume 12 ms c2 = Eh/dr This shows the method we use to measure pulse-wave velocity noninvasively in mice. Mice are anesthetized and placed supine on a small board containing ECG electrodes connected to a high-fidelity amplifier. Doppler signals are processed by a ZCIH processor as in the last slide or sampled at 125 kHz for subsequent processing by an FFT analyzer as shown here. Doppler signals are acquired first from the aortic arch by placing the probe laterally on the left side of the upper chest and searching for the highest velocity signal with an aortic velocity waveform. A mark is then made under the probe, and a second mark is made 40 mm distal on the abdomen. The probe is then moved to the new site, and another velocity signal is recorded from the abdominal aorta. The pulse transit-time is measured from the FFT display which is updated every 0.1 ms by subtracting the arrival times with respect to the ECG. Pulse-wave velocity is determined by dividing the separation distance (40mm) by the pulse transit-time (12ms here) = 3.3m/s. ((( c = PWV = 40/12 = 3.3 mm/ms PWV is similar in man

Blood velocity, near and far artery wall motion, and net diameter change and velocity are shown from a normal wild-type mouse. The net diameter change is calculated by subtracting far and near wall motion and wall velocity is calculated as the derivative of diameter change.

Aorta Carotid artery Velocity Pressure ECG Pulse transmission and reflection in a compliant tube Why do the velocity waveforms look different?

PWV = c = (Eh/dr)1/2 PWV is a function of stiffness and geometry and is faster in hard vessels and slower in floppy ones. The interaction of the forward and backward waves generate the shape of the measured pressure and flow waves at each site. Because the waves distort and meet at different times, the shape of the measured pressure and flow waves is a function of position. In arteries, the speed is fast enough and ejection takes long enough that reflections start to arrive at the heart before the end of cardiac ejection.

Can we measure coronary blood flow in mice? Body Worlds 3 - Gunther von Hagen

Cast of Coronary Arteries What happens to coronary flow?

Doppler catheters can be used to sense flow in man Doppler catheters can be used to sense flow in man. However, because of compensation, resting flow is often normal even with a severe coronary stenosis. What is limited is maximum flow.

Can we do this in mice? H/B = 3.0 In humans, the physiological significance of coronary artery disease is often assessed by the ratio of peak hyperemic velocity (after administration of a vasodilator) to resting baseline coronary velocity (H/B).

Coronary Blood Flow in Mice? Problems: Coronary arteries are small, ~200mm They are close to many other vessels Everything around them moves It seemed impossible to measure flow .... until we tried.

Conclusions - (Measurements) Blood velocity signals from the heart and most arteries of mice can be obtained noninvasively High-fidelity arterial displacement signals can also be obtained noninvasively at the same time Pulse wave velocity, augmentation index, percent diameter change, and coronary reserve can be determined from velocity and displacement signals and their responses to vasoactive agents

Conclusions - (Scaling) Blood velocity, blood pressure, pulse wave velocity, and percent wall displacement in mice and humans are similar in both magnitude and shape. The arterial time constants are scaled to heart period such that reflections return to the heart at similar times during the cardiac cycle. Waveforms Most of the things we can measure in mice and man are altered by age and disease in similar ways.
