The changes of proto-oncogene c-fos and c-jun mRNA expression in angiotensin Ⅱ (AngⅡ)-induced hypertrophy and effects of sodium tanshinone ⅡA sulfonate (STS) in the primary culture of neonatal rat cardiomyocyte...The changes of proto-oncogene c-fos and c-jun mRNA expression in angiotensin Ⅱ (AngⅡ)-induced hypertrophy and effects of sodium tanshinone ⅡA sulfonate (STS) in the primary culture of neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were investigated. Twelve neonatal clean grade Wistar rats were selected. The cardiomyocytes were isolated, cultured and divided according to different treatments in the medium. The cardiomyocyte size was determined by phase contrast microscope, and the rate of protein synthesis was measured by [3H]-Leucine incorporation. The c-fos and c-jun mRNA expression in cardiomyocytes was detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). It was found after cardiomyocytes were treated with AngⅡ for 30 min, the c-fos and c-jun mRNA expression in cardiomyocytes was increased significantly (P〈0.01). After treatment with AngⅡ for 24 h, the rate of protein synthesis in AngⅡ group was significantly increased as compared with control group (P〈0.01). After treatment with AngⅡ for 7 days, the size of cardiomyocytes in AngⅡ group was increased obviously as compared with control group (P〈0.05). After pretreatment with STS or Valsartan before AngⅡ treatment, both of them could inhibit the above effects of AngⅡ (P〈0.05 or P〈0.01). It was suggested that STS could ameliorate AngⅡ-induced cardiomyocyte hy- pertrophy by inhibiting c-fos and c-jun mRNA expression and reducing protein synthesis rate of cardiomyocytes.展开更多
