摘要
目的:探讨c-myc基因表达在血管平滑肌细胞增殖信号传导通路中的作用和采用反义c-myc寡脱氧核苷酸抑制血管平滑肌细胞(SMC)增殖的作用。方法:采用针对大鼠c-mycmRNA包括AUG在内的翻译起始区的前5个密码子的嵌合性硫代修饰的反义c-myc寡脱氧核苷酸(AS-ODN),以lipofectin导入SMC后,通过细胞计数和3H-TdR掺入观察其对SMC增殖的抑制作用。结果:c-mycAS-ODN不仅对从静止状态刺激的SMC增殖有抑制作用,而且对处于增殖状态的SMC的增殖也有显著抑制作用,这种抑制作用可因加入正义c-mycODN而减弱甚至消除,而且随着剂量的增加,抑制作用越来越明显。一次性应用c-mycAS-ODN可达到较持久的作用。而正义ODN和错配ODN对SMC增殖无影响。结论:c-mycAS-ODN以剂量依赖和序列特异方式抑制SMC增殖。c-myc基因表达在SMC增殖的信号传导通路中起重要作用。为采用c-mycAS-ODN抑制SMC增殖的反义战略防治再狭窄研究奠定了基础。
AIM:Investigate the role of c- myc gene expression in the signal transduction pathways mediating smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferation and the effect of chimeric phosphorothioate antisense c- myc oligodeoxynucleotide (AS-ODN) on rat aortic SMC proliferation.METHODS:Chimeric phosphorothioate c- myc AS-ODN targeting the 1st 5 codons of translation initiation region of c- myc mRNA was introduced by lipofectin and its inhibitory effect on SMC proliferation was observed by cell count and -TdR incorporation. RESULTS:c- myc AS-ODN markedly suppressed proliferation of not only SMC stimulating from quiescent state but also exponential SMC. The inhibitory effect of c- myc AS-ODN on SMC proliferation was decreased and even abrogated by adding sense c- myc ODN. The larger dose there was, the greater inhibitory effect of c- myc AS-ODN on SMC proliferation there was. A single administration of c- myc AS-ODN had lasting action.Sense c- myc ODN and mismatch c- myc ODN had no significant effect on SMC proliferation compared with control. CONCLUSIONS:c- myc AS-ODN inhibited SMC proliferation in a dose-dependent and sequence-specific manner. This investigation indicates that c- myc gene product is involved in the signal transduction pathways mediating SMC proliferation and provides a basis for future study of the potential role of antisenese strategy using c- myc AS-ODN designed to inhibit SMC proliferation for the prevention of coronary restenosis
