Methods: Cell adhesion assay was used to observe the effect of rAdinbitor on the adhesion of 8MMC-7721 cells to fibronectin (FN). Crystal violet staining was performed to detect the influence of rAdinbitor on the adhesion of 8MMC- 7721 cells. MTT assay was employed to detect the inhibitory effects of different concentration of rAdinbitor on the proliferation of 8MMC-7721 cells. The morphologic changes of the control 8MMC-7721 cells and the apoptotic cells induced by 200μg/mL rAdinbitor for 36 h were observed under light microscope after HE staining. Flow cytometry analysis was applied to determine the apoptosis rate of 8MMC-7721 cells. Results: (1) FN promoted the adhesion of human hepatoma cell strain 8MMC-7721 in a dose-dependent manner. (2) rAdinbitor could dose-dependently inhibit the adhesion of SMMC-7721 cells to FN. The higher the concentration was, the stronger the inhibition was. There was significant difference among the groups (P 〈 0.05). (3) rAdinbitor had a strong inhibition on the proliferation of 8MMC-7721 cells and showed a dose-dependent manner (P 〈 0.05). After a 48 h exposure, the IC50 value of rAdinbitor was 177.83 μg/mL. (4) After exposure of 8MMC-7721 cells to 200μg/mL rAdinbitor for 36 h, the early morphologic changes appeared and the apoptosis rate was 20.68%, significantly higher than that of the control group (2.38%, P 〈 0.05). Conclusion: rAdinbitor can dose-dependently inhibit the 8MMC-7721 cells adhesion to FN, and can inhibit the proliferation in dose-dependent manner and promote their apoptosis.展开更多

A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 1(ADAMTS1) is a recently identified extracellular metalloproteinase participating in the development of vascular disease, such as atherosclerosis. In the present study, we found that ADAMTS1 was significantly elevated in blood samples from AAD patients compared with patients with acute myocardial infarction and healthy volunteers. Based on these findings, we established an AAD model by infusing angiotensin II in older mice. AAD was successfully developed in aorta tissues, with an incidence of 42% after 14 days in the angiotensin II group. Macrophage and neutrophil infiltration was observed in the media of the aorta, and ADAMTS1 overexpression was found in the aorta by Western blot and immunohistochemistry. Double immunofluorescence staining showed the expression of ADAMTS1 in macrophages and neutrophils. Consistent with the upregulation of ADAMTS1 in aortic dissection tissues, versican(a proteoglycan substrate of ADAMTS1) was degraded significantly more in these tissues than in control aortic tissues. These data suggest that the increased expression of ADAMTS1 protein in macrophages and neutrophils that infiltrated aortic tissues may promote the progression of AAD by degrading versican.展开更多
