Abstract:
The effects of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) on proliferation of bovine coronary artery endothelial cells (BCAEC) and smooth muscle cells (BCASMC) were studied in vitro. BCAEC and BCASMC were isolated and cultured and divided into control group, VEGF (50ng/ml) group and HGF (50ng/ml) group. Cells proliferation was measured using MTT method. The results showed that the OD values of control, VEGF, and HGF group in BCAEC cultures were 0.23?0.02, 0.58?0.10, and 0.42?0.12, respectively, and those in BCASMC were 0.31?0.08, 0.45?0.09, and 0.40?0.11, respectively. The proliferation ratios of BCAEC and BCASMC induced by HGF were 152.2%?33.8% and 45.2%?25.3%, respectively, and that by VEGF were 82.6%?18.7% and 29.0%?20.4%, respectively. The results suggested that HGF could promote proliferation and migration of BCAEC and BCASMC, while VEGF could promote proliferation of BCAEC but not BCASMC. The effect of HGF on BCAEC was stronger than that on BCASMC, and the induction strength of HGF was higher than VEGF.
