Abstract:
Objective To observe the effect of panax notoginseng saponins on pulmonary artery pathology in chronic hypoxic pulmonary hypertensionp (HPH) rats models, discuss the role and possible mechanisms of panax notoginseng saponins in prevention of chronic hypoxic pulmonary hypertension.Methods Forty male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into four groups (n =10).Group C: control group;Group H: rats were treated with hypoxia only;Group HC: rats were treated with hypoxia and captopril;and Group HP: rats were treated with hypoxia and panax notoginseng saponins.To observe the effect of panax notoginseng saponins prophylactic treatment in chronic hypoxic pulmonary hypertension rats,after the establishment of the model of hypoxic rat animal pulmonary hypertension models, transthoracic direct pulmonary artery intubation was measured in rat pulmonary arterial systolic pressure and mean pulmonary artery pressure, at the end of separation and cut for pulmonary artery to observe the pathological changes of pulmonary artery, results were recorded and statistically analyzed.Results (1)Transthoracic direct pulmonary artery intubation was measured in rat pulmonary arterial systolic pressure and mean pulmonary artery pressure: pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) and mean pulmonary arterial pressure (MPAP) were significantly higher in Group H than in Group C (P ＜ 0.05), Group HP was no significant difference relative to Group C.(2)Pathological section shew that the primary pathological change of group H is vascular intimal hyperplasia and the proliferation of smooth muscle cells, medial hypertrophy, extracellular matrix increased, thickening of the vessel wall and the vascular stenos.Conclusions Panax notoginseng saponins inhibit the formation of chronic hypoxic pulmonary hypertension and pulmonary vascular remodeling in rats,and have the effect of prevention and treatment of pulmonary hypertension.
