Abstract:
Objective To observe the morphologic change in rats with pulmonary fibrosis induced by bleomycin through antisense-human tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1(hTIMP-1)transfection.Methods Thirty rats were divided into five groups randomly(six rats in each group),namely,hTIMP-1 transfection group,anti-sense hTIMP-1 transfection group,empty retroviral vectors transfection group,pulmonary fibrosis group,and the normal group.On the 1st,3rd,7th,14th,28th,60th,90th day of BLM administration to the hTIMP-1,anti-sense hTIMP-1 and retroviral vectors transfection group,the hTIMP-1 cDNA retroviral vectors containing sense and anti-sense ones and the empty vectors were conducted into the lungs of rats with pulmonary fibrosis,which were sacrificed on the 28th days.The pulmonary fibrosis group was given just BLM for the same period of time.The rats in the normal control groups were sacrificed on the same day.Observe the role of anti-sense hTIMP-1 transfection and the change of hydroxyproline.Results The degree of fibrosis and content of HYP were extenuated by antisense hTIMP-1 transfection on 1st and 3rd day after BLM exposure compared with the same time of fibrosis and transfection by empty retroviral vectors group,morphologically.Conclusion Transfection with antisense-TIMP-1 on the first and third day can suppress the process of pulmonary fibrosis induced by BLM to some extent.
