Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of sarpogrelate, a specific 5-HT2A receptor blocker,on fibrosis past acute rejection of abdominal aortic allotransplantation in rats. MethodsThe rat models of abdominal aortic transplantation were divided into three groups: allograft control group (Wistar→ SD), isograft control group ( SD→ SD) and sarpogrelate-treated group (Wistar→ SD).Sarpogrelate-treated group receivedintragastric administration of sarpogrelate every day. The pathologic and immunohistochemical findings of the transplant aorta were observed at 14th and 60th day after transplantation. ResultsAt 14th day, visible acute rejection could be observed in allograft control group,but not in isograft control group. At 60th day, vascular intimal index of sarpogrelatetreated group was significantly lower than that in allograft control group[( 16. 71 ± 3. 94)% versus (62. 41 ± 6. 54)% ,P<0. 05). The expression of PCNA and α-SMA in sarpogrelate-treated group wasalso significantly lower than that in allograft control group[(7. 37 ± 4. 61)% versus (22. 43 ±3.40)%,(8.21 ± 3. 11)% versus. (23.70 ± 2.78)%, P<0.05, respectively). Conclusion The expression of PCNA and α-SMA of the transplant aorta could be suppressed by sarpogrelate, and sarpogrelate could relieve the fibrosis past acute rejection of aortic allograft.
