Abstract:
Aim To research the effect of diltiazem on cytokine expression and inflammatory cell activity in rat heart with ischemia/reperfusion.Methods The rats, underwent ischemia reperfusion, were divided into three groups:diltiazem group(D group),ischemia/reperfusion group (I/R group),and sham group (Sgroup).Echocardiogram was detected at 1,2,4 weeks after operation. RT-PCR was used to detect the inflammatory cytokines as IL-1β,TNF-α, IL-6 and anti-inflammatory cytokines as IL-10,TGF-β.Results Compared with I/R group,EF were increased and LVM, IL-β,TNF-α,IL-6 reduced significantly in D group.There was no significant/difference for IL-10 and TGF-β in three groups .Conclusion Diltiazem inhibits IL-1β,TNF-α, IL-6 expressions and inflammatory cell infiltration in rat heart with ischemia reperfusion.
