Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of valsartan on the proliferation and migration of rat aortic smooth muscle cells and the expression of p-ERK1/2 ,p-P38 promoted by angiotensinⅡ (AngⅡ ) .Methods VSMCs from the rat thoracic aorta were cultured by attachment-block culture .VSMCs from3-5 passages were used .The proliferation of VSMCs was tested by MTT meth-od .Pipettetip wounding injury was used to access the migration of VSMCs .The expression of ERK1/2 ,p-ERK1/2 ,P38 and p-P38 of VSMCs was detected by Western Blot .Results (1) AngⅡ could significantly promote the proliferation of VSMCs .The prolifer-ation of VSMCs promoted by AngⅡ could be inhibited by Valsartan and PD98059 .Valsartan inhibited the proliferation of VSMCs in a concentration-dependence .SB23015 could significantly promote the proliferation of VSMCs .(2 ) The migration activity of VSMCs in the Ang Ⅱ was increased significantly .Valsartan and PD98059 inhibited Ang Ⅱ-induced migration of rat VSMCs and SB23015 was on the contrary .(3) Valsartan and PD98059 could inhibit AngⅡ-induced VSMCs intracellular p-ERK1/2 protein ex-pression ,and this role was enhanced by SB23015 .Valsartan and SB23015 could inhibit Ang Ⅱ-induced VSMCs intracellular p-P38 protein expression ,and PD98059 had no significant effect .(4)VSMCs had no significant effect on cell proliferation ,migration and p-ERK1/2 ,p-P38 protein expression under valsartan alone .Conclusion (1)Valsartan could inhibit Ang Ⅱ-induced proliferation and migration of VSMCs in a concentration-dependence .(2)The effects that valsartan inhibits the proliferation and migration of Ang Ⅱ-induced VSMCs might be related to its inhibiting Ang Ⅱ-induced p-ERK1/2 protein expression .(3)p-P38 might play a negative reg-ulatory role on the AngⅡ-induced p-ERK1/2 activation .
