Abstract:
Objective To study the effects of administration of donor apoptotic bone marrow cells via portal vein on the survival time of heart transplantation in rats.Methods Wistar rats were selected as donors and SD rats as recipients, and divided into 4 groups at random. In groups A, B and C, the animals were injected via portal vein with RPMI 1640 0.5 ml 6 as control group, 5?107 donor bone marrow cells and 5?107 apoptotic donor bone marrow cells 6 days before transplantation, respectively , and not subjected to cyclosporin A (CsA). In group D, the animals were injected intra- peritoneally with CsA 5 mg/kg from 3 days before transplantation till 10 days post operation. Bone marrow cells apoptosis was induced by 60 Co? radiation. Heart transplantation models were established in each group. The survival time of donor heart and histological changes were observed. Serum concentrations of IL-10 and TGF-?_1 of recipients and mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) were measured. Results The survival time of heart allografts in the group C ( 14.00 ? 0.95 ) was significantly longer than in group A (P
