Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of FGF 2 on the intercellular communication in the cardiac myocytes. Methods The primary neonatal ventricular myocytes of rats were cultured with FGF 2 (0,1,10,100 and 1000ng/ml) for 1 or 4 days. Then the mean fluorescence recovery rate (MFRR, %/min) of these myocytes labeled with carboxyfluocein diacetate after photo bleaching was examined with laser scanning cytopmetry (ACAS Ultima). Results The MFRR levels of the myocytes cultured with FGF 2 (10 and 100ng/ml) groups for 1 day were significantly decreased compared with the control group, while no statistic changes were found among the other groups (FGF 2, 1 and 1000ng/ml) and the control. After FGF 2 exertion on the myocytes for 4 days, the increased cell number, enlarged cellular body and decreased MFRR level were found in the myocytes cultured with FGF 2 (10 and 100ng/ml) groups. And the decreased cell number, disarranged and shrunk cells and significantly increased MFRR level were gotten in the group (FGF 2 1000ng/ml) compared with the control group. Conclusion These results suggested the FGF 2 may have both short and long term effects on the cell cell communication in the cardiac myocytes mediated by gap junction, and be necessary to the cardiac myocyte coordination during the cell growth, differentiation and perhaps apoptosis.
