Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of neuropeptide substance P on airway smooth muscle cell contraction amplitude.Methods According to random method, 10 Wistar rats were divided into normal group and asthmatic group.By inhaled OVA to make asthmatic rat model;primary culture ASMC;confocal microscopy were used to observe the morphological changes and measure the length before and after different intervention.The percent of contraction length come from different group ASMC were used for statistical analysis.Results The ASMCs volume in acetylcholine intervented group and substance P intervented group decreased significantly,cell diameters shorten, cytoplasm reduction and cell arranged densely.The ASMCs volume in substance P receptor antagonist intervented group and nimodipine intervented group are about the same size as the ones in normal control group, were spindle-shaped, abundant cytoplasm and arrangement regularly.The contraction length percent of Ach intervened group is the biggest(19.60 ± 3.47) ％, contraction length percent of nimodiping intervented group is the shortest(3.25 ± 1.14)％ ,the contraction length percent in substance Precepter antagonist intervented group is bigger than the one in control group (3.54 ± 1.26) ％, but less than the one in Ach intervented group, asthmatic (14.36 ± 2.37) ％ and substance P intervened group (17.79 ± 3.19) ％.Conclusion Substance P can increase the amplitude of airway smooth muscle cell contraction, but the effect less than Ach;substance P receptor antagonists can inhibit smooth muscle cell contractility, but the effect less than nimodipine.Substance P participates in acute attack of asthma, increases airway reactivity by increasing airway smooth muscle contraction intensity.
