Abstract:
AIM: To investigate the effect of sodium ferulate on phosphorylation of heat shock protein 27(HSP27) in vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMCs) induced by angiotensin Ⅱ(AngⅡ) and platelet derived growth factor-BB(PDGF-BB).METHODS: Cultured VSMCs derived from rat thoracic aorta were used.The activity of HSP27 was evaluated by Western blotting with specific phospho-HSP27 antibody.RESULTS: The phosphorylation of HSP27 in response to AngⅡ and PDGF-BB was suppressed by sodium ferulate in a dose-dependent manner,with maximal inhibition rates of 39.0%(P
