自发性高血压大鼠和Wistar-Kyoto大鼠心血管组织肾上腺髓质素和肾上腺髓质素原N-末端20肽的水平(英文)

Levels of adrenomedullin and proadrenomedullin N-terminal 20 peptide in myocardium and aorta of spontaneously hypertensive rats and Wistar-Kyoto rats

本工作观察了自发性高血压大鼠 (SHRs)和Wistar kyoto (WKY)大鼠心肌和主动脉肾上腺髓质素 (a drenomedullin ,ADM)和肾上腺髓质素原N 末端 2 0肽 (proadrenomedullinNterminal 2 0peptide ,PAMP)的水平。以放射免疫分析方法测定血浆、心肌和主动脉ADM含量。用竞争性定量逆转录多聚酶链式反应 (RT PCR)方法测定心肌和主动脉ProADMmRNA含量。结果发现 ,SHRs心肌和主动脉ProADMmRNA水平分别比WKY大鼠高 66 7%和 73 % (均P <0 0 1)。SHRs血浆、心肌和主动脉ADM ir含量分别较WKY大鼠高 2 9%、76 7%和 79% (均P <0 0 1)。SHRs血浆、心肌和主动脉PAMP ir水平分别较WKY大鼠高 42 5 % (P <0 0 1)、47 2 % (P <0 0 1)和 2 7 3 % (P <0 0 5 )。另外 ,SHRs的ADM和PAMP的比值较WKY大鼠明显增高 (心肌和主动脉分别为 2 0± 0 2 5vs 1 64± 0 3和 2 2± 0 18vs 1 5 6± 0 2 8)。结果提示 ,SHRs心肌和主动脉ProADM基因表达上调 ,ADM和PAMP水平升高 ,但二者升高的比例不一致。

In this study, we observed the levels of adrenomedullin (ADM) and proadrenomedullin N-terminal 20 peptide (PAMP) in myocardium and aorta of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) in comparison with Wistar-kyoto (WKY) rats. Contents of ADM and PAMP were measured by radioimmunoassay (RIA) in plasma, myocardium and aorta. The amount of Pro-ADM mRNA of myocardium and aorta was determined by competitive quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). In SHRs the amounts of Pro-ADM mRNA of myocardium and aorta were 66.7% (P<0.01) and 73% (P<0.01) higher than those in WKY rat, respectively. In SHRs, the levels of ADM in plasma, myocardium and aorta were 29%, 76.7% and 79% (all P<0.01) higher than those in WKY rats, respectively. The level of PAMP in SHRs was increased by 42.5% in plasma (P<0.01), 47.2% in myocardium (P<0.0.1) and 27.3% in aorta (P<0.05) compared to WKY rats, respectively. In addition, the ratio of ADM content to PAMP content in SHRs group was increased compared with that in WKY group (2.0±0.25 vs 1.64±0.3 and 2.2±0.18 vs 1.56±0.28, in myocardium and aorta, respectively, P<0.01). These results suggest that ProADM gene expression is up-regulated and the increase in ADM and PAMP is different in SHRs. The significance of inconsistency of increase in ADM and PAMP in SHRs needs to be further investigated.
