To observe the effects of rapamycin on the expressions of Rho-kinase and p27 mRNA during vascular intimal proliferation in a porcine model of coronary stenosis induced by interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta).
The proximal segments of LAD and LCX were wrapped with cotton mesh that had absorbed sepharose bead solution with or without IL-1beta. Selective coronary angiography was performed two weeks later and the animals were killed for collecting the samples for histopathology and RT-PCR analyzing of Rho-kinase and p27 mRNA.
The expressions of Rho-kinase and p27 mRNA could be visualized in normal coronary wall. The expression of Rho-kinase mRNA was significantly enhanced and the expression of p27 mRNA was significantly decreased during the process of intimal proliferation induced by IL-1beta. Rapamycin significantly inhibited the intimal proliferation, reduced the infiltration of inflammatory cells, reduced the expression of Rho-kinase mRNA and increased the expression of p27 mRNA.
The expression of Rho-kinase mRNA is upregulated and p27 mRNA downregulated in coronary artery stenosis induced by IL-1beta and these effects could be abolished by cotreatment with rapamycin.
观察雷帕霉素对白细胞介素-1β(IL-1β)诱导的猪冠状动脉狭窄模型血管内膜增殖过程中Rho激酶和p27 mRNA表达的影响。
用吸附有含或不含IL-1β的琼脂糖珠溶液的棉网包裹左前降支(LAD)和左旋支(LCX)的近端节段。两周后进行选择性冠状动脉造影,然后处死动物,收集样本进行组织病理学检查以及Rho激酶和p27 mRNA的逆转录-聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)分析。
在正常冠状动脉壁中可观察到Rho激酶和p27 mRNA的表达。在IL-1β诱导的内膜增殖过程中,Rho激酶mRNA的表达显著增强,而p27 mRNA的表达显著降低。雷帕霉素显著抑制内膜增殖,减少炎性细胞浸润,降低Rho激酶mRNA的表达并增加p27 mRNA的表达。
在IL-1β诱导的冠状动脉狭窄中,Rho激酶mRNA表达上调,p27 mRNA表达下调,而雷帕霉素联合治疗可消除这些影响。
