Abstract:
Objective To observe the effect of recombinant adenovirus-mediated the fms-like tyrosine kinast-1 (FLT-1) gene promoter carrying protein C (PC) gene (Ad-FLT-1/PC) on apoptosis and oxidative stress in rat with diabetic nephropathy atherosclerosis. Methods High sugar, high fat diet and streptozotocin by intraperitoneal injection were used to establish diabetic nephropathy atherosclerosis rat model. The rats were randomly divided into Ad-FLT-1/PC group (n=23), Ad-GFP group (n=23) and normal saline group (n=22) and injected with 300 ul Ad-FLT-1/PC, Ad-GFP and normal saline by caudal vein. Another healthy rats (n=23) were control group. At day 1, 3, 7 and 14 after transfection, rats of each group were randomly executed to observe vascular apoptosis and assay the level of SOD and MDA in plasma by the kit method of WST and TBA. Results Vascular cell apoptosis was observed in Ad-FLT-1/PC group, Ad-GFP group and NS group, the apoptosis index showed no statistical difference between three groups at each time point (P>0.05). At day 14 after transfection, Ad-FLT-1/PC group rats had higher concentration of the plasma SOD and lower MDA than Ad - GFP group and NS group. The difference were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions The recombinant adenovirus Ad-FLT-1/PC can effectively regulate oxidative stress but not apoptosis.
