Abstract:
Objective To study the effects of Fluvastatin on the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) induced by C-reactive protein (CRP). MethodsThe HUVECs were primary cultured. HUVECs from third to sixth generations were stimulated with different concentrations CRP and at different times. Then the cells were treated with Fluvastatin in different concentration of 10-7,10-6 and 10-5mol/L. The content of ICAM-1 protein was detected with ELISA, the mRNA expression of ICAM-1 was evaluated by RT-PCR. Results In the control group, HUVECs produce ICAM-1 protein and mRNA in low concentrations. In CRP group, the content of ICAM-1 protein was increased significantly (P
