To investigate the effects of arginine vasopressin (AVP) and its receptor antagonist conivaptan (CON) on the proliferation of cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) and the production of collagen I and III.
CFs were isolated by collagenase II method and purified with differential attachment and detachment methods. The cell viability of CFs after AVP and/or CON administration was assessed by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8). The expressions of COL1A1 and COL3A1 mRNA were detected by RT-PCR, and the protein levels of (collagen type 1, alpha 1, COL1A1) and COL3A1 were assessed by Western blotting.
At 24 h after intervention, 10(-7); mol/L AVP promoted the proliferation of CFs in comparison with that in control group (P<0.01), and 10(-7); mol/L CON inhibited the effect significantly (P<0.01). At 12 h after intervention, 10(-7); mol/L AVP significantly enhanced the expressions of COL1A1 and COL3A1 at both mRNA and protein levels, and 10(-7); mol/L CON inhibited the effect again.
AVP promoted the proliferation of CFs and enhanced the COL1A1 and COL3A1 expressions at both mRNA and protein levels, while CON could restrain the AVP effects partially.
探讨精氨酸加压素(AVP)及其受体拮抗剂考尼伐坦(CON)对心脏成纤维细胞(CFs)增殖及Ⅰ型和Ⅲ型胶原蛋白产生的影响。
采用Ⅱ型胶原酶法分离CFs,并用差速贴壁和去贴壁法进行纯化。通过细胞计数试剂盒-8(CCK-8)评估给予AVP和/或CON后CFs的细胞活力。采用逆转录-聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)检测COL1A1和COL3A1 mRNA的表达,并用蛋白质印迹法评估Ⅰ型胶原蛋白α1(COL1A1)和COL3A1的蛋白水平。
干预24小时后,10⁻⁷ mol/L AVP与对照组相比促进了CFs的增殖(P<0.01),而10⁻⁷ mol/L CON显著抑制了该作用(P<0.01)。干预12小时后,10⁻⁷ mol/L AVP在mRNA和蛋白水平均显著增强了COL1A1和COL3A1的表达,10⁻⁷ mol/L CON再次抑制了该作用。
AVP促进CFs增殖,并在mRNA和蛋白水平增强COL1A1和COL3A1的表达,而CON可部分抑制AVP的作用。
