description Abstract Background Autonomic remodeling, characterized by sympathetic activation and vagal withdrawal, contributes to heart failure (HF) progression. However, the exact mechanism(s) responsible for vagal withdrawal in HF remain(s) unclear, and whether HF causes epicardial autonomic nerve remodeling is unknown. Methods and Results Myocardial infarction (MI) was produced in 14 Sprague–Dawley rats, and 10 sham surgery rats served as the control. MI-HF was confirmed 2 months after the surgery by echocardiography and hemodynamic measurement. Cervical vagal nerve stimulation was delivered to examine the heart rate slowing effect. Whole heart acetylcholinesterase histochemistry was used to examine the epicardial autonomic nerve remodeling at dorsal ventricles (remote from the infarcted area). Compared with the control animals, the same vagal nerve stimulation had less heart rate slowing effect in MI-HF group. Both epicardial nerve bundle length-density (2.56±0.60 μm/mm2 versus 1.68±0.46 μm/mm2 , P =.001) and branching point-density (1.24±0.25 points/mm2 versus 0.66±0.18 points/ mm2 , P
