Abstract:
Objective To observe the vascular collagen remodeling, apoptosis and Bcl-2/Bax of vascular smooth muscle cells in carotid artery on SHR . Methods 12 SHR treated with Irbesartan ,12 SHR without treated Irbesartan ,12 wistar rats were normotensive control group. The vascular volume fraction of Collagen were determined by picrosirius red staining .The expression of the proteins Bcl-2 and Bax were determined by Immunhistochemia,VSMC apoptosis was identified by in situ TDT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling(TUNEL). Results Significant Fibrosis exists in carotid artery of SHR. After 20 week's treating, the vascular volume fraction of Collagen and the ratio of wall/cavity were descended, but weren't parallel. The expression of the protein Bcl-2 and APOI were higher than the subjects of normotensive control, its reduced after treating; The expression of the proteins Bax was similar with control, it increased after treating. Conclusions The results suggest that vascular collagen remodeling exist, its maybe related with apoptosis , the proteins Bcl-2 and Bax of VSMC. The Irbesartan can treat it.
