Methods The receptor binding assay (RBA) was adopted to measure the estrogen receptor level in aortic wall, heart and vascular endothelial cells of female rats on a cholesterol - rich diet. A ra-dioimmunoassay was employed to measure the level of serum estradiol. Results The number of ER significantly decreased in hearts, aorta and vascular endothelial cells in the ovariectomized rats and the rats on a cholesterol - rich diet. In contrast, the administration of estrogen somewhat restored the expression of ER. Conclusions For female rats, the level of estrogen affects the expression of ER in cardiovascular system. The number of ER decreases along with the decrease in the level of estrogen. A cholesterol - rich diet also can decrease the expression of ER in cardiovascular system of female rats.展开更多

Methods Radioim-munology was used to measure the serum concentration of endothelin and PGI2, and copper - cadmium reduction was employed to measure the serum content of nitrogen monoxide. Radioligand binding and flowcy-tometry were used to measure the expression of estrogen receptor and vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM - 1) of vascular endothelial cells respectively. Results 1. The serum concentration of nitric oxide and PGI2 decreased when the ovaries of female rats were removed. In ovariectomized rats, given estrogen, the concentration rose ( P < 0. 05), but the plasma concentration of endothelin was adverse to it. 2. The concentration of estrogen receptor of vascular endothelial cells decreased remarkably when the ovaries of female rats were removed. When given estrogen, it increased. 3. The percent of expressed VCAM - 1 increased significantly after interleukin - 1βoperated on the cells, but 17 -βestradiol at 3 × 10-8 - 10-6 mol/l all decreased the percent. Conclusions Estrogen level can influence the secretion of nitrogen monoxide, PGI2 and endothlin of vascular endothelial cells, and also influence the concentration of estrogen receptor of vascular endothelial cells. 17 -β Estradiol at 3 × 10-8 -10-6 M can decrease the elevation of VCAM - 1 of vascular endothelial cells induced by interleukin - 1β.展开更多
