Abstract:
This study was aimed to observe the influence of qi-reinforcing and blood-activating(QRBA) herbs onan-giogenesis of the myocardial microvascular, SDF-1 and CXCR4 protein expression as well as mRNA expression in the infarcted myocardium edge area of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) ratmodel. The AMI rat model was estab-lished. The immunohistochemical staining method was used in the detection of vWF protein expression in the myocar-dial tissues. The MVC account was recorded. The SDF-1 factor and its specific receptor factor CXCR4 were detected by the western blot and realtime-PCR technique in the infarcted myocardium edge area of rats from each group. The results showed that in the new generated microvessels which were staining marked by the vWF factor can be seen in infarcted myocardium edge area of rats from the sham-operated group, model group, each medication group. The new generated microvessels in the myocardium of rats in the sham-operated group were not obvious. Small amount of new generated microvessels can be seen in rats from the model group. More new generated microvessels can be seen in rats from each medication group. The comparison between the model group and the sham-operated group showed sta-tistical difference (P<0.05). The comparison between each medication group and the model group showed statistical difference(P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with the sham-operated group, SDF-1, CXCR4 and mRNA expression were obviously increased in the myocardium of rats in the model group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with the model group, SDF-1, CXCR4 protein and mRNA expression were obviously increased in the myocardium of rats from each medication group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). It was concluded that herbs such as Salvia, couplet herbs of Salvia and Astra-galushad stimulation effectonangiogenesis. Mechanism of these drugs in angiogenesismay be through the promotion of SDF-1 and CXCR4 protein as well as mRNA express.
