FUNDAMENTOS: O polimorfismo e a atividade da enzima conversora da angiotensina (ECA) contribuem, de forma significante, na expressão fenotípica e no prognóstico de pacientes com cardiomiopatia. OBJETIVOS: Determinar o polimorfismo da ECA, realizar a sua dosagem sérica e correlacioná-los com o grau de hipertrofia miocárdica e o índice de massa do ventrículo esquerdo em pacientes com cardiomiopatia hipertrófica (CMH) nas formas familiar e não familiar. CASUÍSTICA E MÉTODO: Foram estudados 136 pacientes consecutivos com CMH (69 da forma familiar e 67 da forma não familiar) com média de idade de 40,53±17,45 anos, sendo 76 do sexo masculino. Os indivíduos foram submetidos ao ecocardiograma para obtenção das medidas do septo interventricular, parede posterior e massa do ventrículo esquerdo e coleta de sangue para determinação do polimorfismo e dosagem sérica da atividade da ECA. RESULTADOS: Quanto ao genótipo do polimorfismo do gene da ECA, encontramos DD 47(35%), ID 71(52%) e II 18 (13%), sendo que do genótipo DD 34% na forma familiar e 36% na forma não familiar. A média da atividade da ECA foi de 56.414±19.236 para os pacientes com CMH na forma familiar e de 55.085±22.634 para a forma não familiar (p = 0,714). A média do índice de massa do ventrículo esquerdo na forma familiar foi 154±63 g/m2 e na forma não familiar foi 174±57 g/m2 (p = 0,008). A média do septo interventricular nas formas familiar e não familiar foi, respectivamente, 19±5 mm e 21±5 mm (p = 0,020). A média da parede posterior do ventrículo esquerdo nas formas familiar e não familiar foi, respectivamente, 10±2 mm e 12±3 mm (p = 0,0001). Não observamos correlação entre o polimorfismo e o grau de hipertrofia miocárdica (p = 0,651). Houve correlação positiva entre a atividade da ECA e o índice de massa do ventrículo esquerdo (p = 0,038). Os pacientes com a forma familiar, pela curva de regressão logística, possuíam o risco de apresentar índice de massa maior ou igual 190 g/m2, somente com o dobro do valor da atividade da ECA, quando comparados aos pacientes com a forma não familiar (p = 0,022). CONCLUSÕES: Não houve diferença estatisticamente significante entre o genótipo do polimorfismo e da atividade da ECA nos pacientes com CMH nas formas familiar e não familiar. Não houve correlação entre o polimorfismo da ECA e o grau de hipertrofia miocárdica. Houve correlação positiva entre a atividade da ECA e o índice de massa do ventrículo esquerdo.

Abstract in English
BACKGROUND: The polymorphism and the activity of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) contributes of significant form in the phenotypic expression and the prognostic of patients with cardiomyopathy. OBJECTIVES: To determine the ACE polymorphism and ACE plasma levels in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in the familial and nonfamilial forms and to correlate it with the degree of myocardium hypertrophy and with the left ventricular mass index. PATIENTS AND METHODS: 136 consecutive patients with HCM (69 of familial and 67 of nonfamilial forms) were studied. The mean age was 40.53±17.45 years, 76 were male. The individuals were submitted to the Echo-Doppler for the measurement of interventricular septum, wall thickness and the left ventricular mass index. The blood samples were taken for extraction of the DNA for the polymerase reaction and measurement of ACE plasma levels. RESULTS: Regarding the genotype of the ACE gene polymorphism, we found DD 47 (35%), ID 71 (52%) and II 18 (13%), being that of genotype DD 34% in the familial and 36% in the nonfamilial forms. The mean of the activity of the ACE was 56.414±19.236 for the patients with HCM in the familial form and 55.085±22.634 in the non familial form (p = 0.714). The mean of the left ventricular mass index in the familial form was 154±63 g/m2 and in the nonfamilial form was 174±57 g/m2 (p = 0.0080). The mean of interventricular septum in the familial and nonfamilial forms was 19±5 mm and 21±5 mm (p = 0.0200), respectively. The mean of the wall thickness in the familial and nonfamilial forms was 10±2 mm and 12±3 mm (p = 0.0001), respectively. We did not observe correlation between the polymorphism and the degree of myocardium hypertrophy (p = 0.651). A positive correlation between the activity of the ACE and the left ventricular mass index (p = 0.038) was observed. In patients with the familial form, using a logistic regression curve, they had the risk to present the left ventricular mass index >= 190 g/m2, only with the double of the value of the activity of the ACE, when compared with the patients in the nonfamilial form (p = 0.022). CONCLUSIONS: There was no difference between the patients with HCM in the familial and nonfamilial forms regarding genotype of the polymorphism and activity of the ACE. There was no correlation between the polymorphism of the ACE with the degree of myocardium hypertrophy. Positive correlation with the activity of the ACE and the left ventricular mass index was observed.
