Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of local delivery c-myc antisense oligodexynucleotides on neointimal hyperplasia after angioplasty in rabbits. Methods The celiac arterial endothelium of 75 male Japanese white rabbit (2.5?0.5 kg) were denuded after being fed with cholesterol-supplemented diet to establish the model of atherosclerotic stenosis of celiac arteries. The animals were randomized into the antisense DNA group (Group Ⅰ), sense DNA group (Group Ⅱ), saline control group (Group Ⅲ) and simple angioplasty group (Group Ⅳ). The drugs were injected intramurally using a porous balloon. The local vessels were collected at the 24 th hour and the 4 th week after the procedure for morphological observation. C-myc mRNA level was measured by means of RT-PCR and c-myc protein with immunohistochemical staining. Results RT-PCR showed that c-myc mRNA level in Group Ⅰ was lower than that of Group Ⅱ, Group Ⅲ and Group Ⅳ after the first 24 hours. The ratio of neointimal area (NEA) to medial area (MA) and NEA/MA in Group Ⅰ were significantly less than those of Group Ⅱ, Group Ⅲ and Group Ⅳ. Immunohistochemical staining showed that the percentage of c-myc protein positive cells was less in Group Ⅰ than those of the other groups. Conclusion Transcatheter local delivery of c-myc antisense oligonucleotides reduces neointimal hyperplasia after angioplasty in rabbits.
