Abstract:
Objective To investigate roles of Homocysteine induced gene HCY2 in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) Methods HCY2 was delivered into VSMC by replication defective adenovirus DNA fragmentation was investigated by DNA Laddering and cell death ELISA VSMC in sub G1 was detected by using flow cytometry Results DNA from VSMC transfected by HCY2 gene was cleaved into multiple nucleosomes and VSMC in sub G1 region increased after being infected with HCY2 Conclusion HCY2 is able to induce apoptosis in VSMC
