Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of constant magnetic field on secretion and expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) in human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) induced by angiotensin Ⅱ (AngⅡ). Methods The fourth to sixth passages of in vitro cultured VSMCs from human umbilical artery were used. The cells were divided into six groups, i.e. control group, AngⅡ (1?10 -6mol/L) group, Ang Ⅱ with exposure to 1, 5, 10 or 50 Gs of constant magnetic field groups. Samples were collected 12 hours after intervention. The secretion of VCAM-1 was assayed by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the expression of VCAM-1 was assessed by immunocytochemistry. Results The secretion of VCAM-1 was increased significantly 12 hours after intervention with AngⅡ of 10 -6mol/L (P
