Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the expression of chemokine like factor 2 (CKLF2) mRNA in the rat myocardium after myocardial infarction(MI).Methods: In a rat model of MI, the myocardium surrounding the infarcted area was used for RNA preparation at different time points. After RT, competitive polymerase chain reaction amplification was performed to assess the expression of rCKLF2 mRNA. SAS Kruskal Wallis test was used for statistical comparisons. Results: The gene expression of rCKLF2 at mRNA level was significantly increased in the myocardium surrounding the infarcted area 3 days, 1 week, 2 weeks after infarction.Conclusion: It is possible that CKLF2 contributes to the pathophysiological process and needs to be further investigated.
