Abstract:
Aim To evaluate the inhibitory effect of panaxynol(PNN) on the proliferation of rat aortic smooth muscle cell(RASMC) and its mechanisms.Methods Cell proliferation was determined using cell count and -TdR incorporation test.Fura-3/AM and confocal were used to measure intracelluar free Ca~(2+) concentration.Expression of mitochondrial transcription factor 1(mtTF1) mRNA was tested by using RT-PR.Results PNN inhibited the RASMC proliferation and DNA synthesis induced by serum and PDGF-BB in a dose-dependent manner.9 ?mol?L~(-1) of PNN inhibited the increase of intracelluar free Ca~(2+) concentration induced by PDGF-BB.PDGF-BB upregulated the expression of mtTF1 mRNA,which could be suppressed by 3,9 ?mol?L~(-1) of PNN significantly.Conclusions PNN can inhibit RASMC proliferation significantly,which might be related to the decrease of intracellular free Ca~(2+) concentration and mtTF1 mRNA expression.
