Abstract:
Objective To study the interference effects of tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) on calcinuerin (CaN), c-fos and the nuclear antigen of proliferating cells in the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) treated by angiotensinⅡ(Ang Ⅱ). Methods A cell proliferating model of VSMCs induced by Ang Ⅱ was established; the effects of TMP on CaN was detected by enzyme reaction phosphorus measurement; the effects of TMP on c-fos gene and PCNA expression were observed by immunocytochemical staining and image analysis technique (A value). Results The rats’ aortic smooth muscle cells were cultured in vitro successfully. CaN activities, cell proliferation activity and the expression levels of c-fos and PCNA increased significantly in VSMCs proliferation induced by Ang Ⅱ (P
