Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of mycophenolic acid (MPA) on the proliferation of rat pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMVECs) and the effects of MPA on the secretion of endothelin-1 (ET-1) and interleukin-6 (IL-6).Methods PMVECs were cultured by tissue-sticking method.Cells were divided into 5 groups,named as the control group,low-dose MPA group,moderate-dose MPA group,highdose MPA group and super high-dose MPA group,according to the final concentration of MPA (0,0.1,1,10 and 100 μmol/L,respectively).The proliferation of rat PMVECs was detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8).The ET-1 and IL-6 secretion were assessed by radio-immunoassay.One-way analysis of variance was used to detect the differences between the group means.Results The cultured PMVECs of rats in vitro showed fusiform or polygonal in shape,and the expressed factor Ⅷ associated antigen stain was positive.At 24 h,the A values of the 5 groups (from control group to super high-dose MPA group) were 1.15±0.20,1.20±0.13,0.88±0.20,0.62±0.05 and 0.56±0.10,respectively,there was no significant difference in the A values on 450 nm between the control group and the low-dose MPA group (P=0.388),as well as the high-dose MPA group and super high-dose MPA group (P=0.292),but there were significant differences between any other two groups (P＜0.01).At 48 h,the A values of the 5 groups (from control group to super high-dose MPA group)were 2.61±0.21,2.52±0.23,1.99±0.17,0.84±0.16 and 0.65±0.12,respectively,there was no significant difference in the A values on 450 nm between the control group and low-dose MPA group (P=0.094),but there were significant differences in the A values between any other two groups (P＜0.01).At 72 h,the A values of the 5 groups (from control group to super high-dose MPA group) were 2.62±0.24,2.62±0.19,2.37± 0.38,0.79±0.17 and 0.61±0.17,respectively,there was no significant difference in the A values on 450 nm between the control group and low-dose MPA group (P=0.931),but there were significant differences in the A values between any other two groups (P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in the ET-1 concentrations between the control group and low-dose MPA group (P=0.156),and high-dose MPA group and super high-dose MPA group (P=0.262),but there were significant differences in the concentrations between any other two groups (P＜0.01).There were no significant differences in the IL-6 concentrations of the five groups between any of the two groups (P＞0.05).Conclusion MPA can inhibit fetal bovine serum induced rat PMVECs proliferation and the secretion of ET-1 in a dose-dependent manner.
