Title: TMAO, a seafood-derived molecule, produces diuresis and reduces mortality in heart failure rats
Abstract: Trimethylamine-oxide (TMAO) is present in seafood which is considered to beneficial for health. Deep-water animals accumulate TMAO to protect such as lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), against hydrostatic stress (HPS). We hypothesized that TMAO exerts beneficial on the circulatory system and protects cardiac LDH exposed to produced by the contracting heart. Male, Sprague-Dawley and (SHHF) rats were treated orally either water (control) or TMAO. In vitro, LDH with or without TMAO exposed to HPS and was evaluated using fluorescence correlation TMAO-treated rats showed higher diuresis and natriuresis, arterial pressure and plasma NT-proBNP. Survival in SHHF-control 66\% vs 100\% in SHHF-TMAO. In vitro, exposure of LDH to HPS with or TMAO did not affect protein structure. In conclusion, TMAO mortality in SHHF, which was associated with diuretic, and hypotensive effects. HPS and TMAO did not affect LDH protein structure.
