摘要
通过培养的人主动脉平滑肌细胞(hASMC)及脐静脉内皮细胞(hUVEC),应用3H-TdR参入、Northernblot分析、逆转录多聚酶链反应(RT-PCR)、放射免疫分析(RIA)、和紫外比色法等技术观察了人主动脉中硫酸乙酰肝素蛋白聚糖(HSPG)对hASMC和hUVECDNA合成的作用及对血小板源生长因子(PDGF)、PDGF受体、转化生长因子β(TGF-β)、内皮素-1(ET-1)或碱性成纤维细胞生长因子(bFGF)基因表达和肾素-血管紧张系统(RAS)的影响,结果显示,HSPG明显抑制培养的hASMC基础的DNA合成(cpm值为:10385±3263vs,25541±6421,P<0.01)及外源性PDGF诱导的DNA合成(cpm值为:9878±1947vs.13481±44l0,P<0.05);抑制PDGFA链、TGF-Bp和ET-1mRNA表达,提高PDGFa和β受体mRNA的表达;显著降低hASMC培养液中血管紧张素Ⅱ(AngⅡ)的浓度和血管紧张素转换酶(ACE)的活性,推测HSPG抑制PDGFA链、TGF-β及ET-1mRNA表达,降低ACE活性及AngⅡ浓度是其抑制hASMC增殖的重要机?
H-TdR incorporation,Northern blot analysis,reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR),radioimmunoassay(RIA) and colorimetric techniques were used to elucidate the effects of heparan sulfate proteoglycan(HSPG),extracted from healthy human aorta,on DNA synthesis and the gene expression of platelet-derived growth factor(PDGF),PDGF-receptors,transforming growth factor B(TGF-B),basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF) and endothelin-1(ET-1) and also on renin-angiotensin system(RAS) in cultured human aortic smooth muscle cells(hASMC) and/or umbilical vein endothelial cells(hUVEC).The results showed that HSPG evidently inhibited the basic and PDGF-induced DNA synthesis of cultured hASMC(10385±3263 vs.25541±6421 cpm,P<0.01,and 9878±1947 vs.13481±4410 cpm,P<0.05,respectively);markedly inhibited the gene expression of PDGF A chain,TGF-βand ET-1,but stimulated receptors for PDGF;and significantly decreased the concentrarion of angiotensin Ⅱ and the activity of angiotensin converting enzyme in the media.It is suggested that the inhibitory effects of HSPG on gene expression of PDGFA and TGF-B in hASMC and that of ET-1 in hUVEC,together with the inhibitory effect on RAS might be the important mechanisms by which HSPG inhibits the proliferation of aortic smooth muscle cells. Furthermore,both HSPG and bFGF stimulated the proliferation of hUVEC with the rate of 37% and 95%,respectively.HSPG,together with bFGF.in the same dosage as used separately,showed a synergetic action on hUVEC growth.Although HSPG itself had no effect on the expression of bFGF mRNA,the stimulatory action of it on hUVEC could be neutralized completely by anti-bFGF antibody.This finding suggests that the stimulation of hUVEC by HSPG might proceed through the activation of endogenous bFGF.
