Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of astragalosides(AST)on angiogenesis of myocardium in rats after myocardial infarction.Methods Myocardial infarction(MI)was induced by ligation of the proximal left anterior descending coronary artery,30 postoperative rats were randomly divided into three same-size groups,i.e,medical group A(AST 2.5 mg · kg-1 · d-1),medical group B(AST 10mg · kg-1 · d-1)and control group(physiological saline).All of three groups were treated with intraperitoneal injection of 2ml dose for 4 weeks.The pathological changes of the heart tissue were observed by H-E staining and the micro-vascular count(MVC)/micro-vascular density (MVD)were calculated by CD34-staining.Results HE staining showed cardiac fabric disarrangement,granulation tissue generation,and fibroblast proliferation;The change of medical groups was less obvious than the control group; the change of group B with higher dose was less obvious than group A.CD34 staining showed that regeneration of neovascularization at the margin of myocaardium infarction was seen in all of three groups;for the MVC/MVD,medical groups were significantly higher than the control group,while group B is significantly higher than group A (all P ＜0.01).Conclusion AST can improve myocardial ischemia of rats after myocardial infarction.AST can promote angiogenesis in ischemic myocardium of rats,and the effect is positively correlated with AST dose.
