AIM: To observe the effects of valsartan on the cardiac hypertrophy and the expression of PTEN in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). METHODS: Twenty 12-week-old male SHR were randomly divided into 2 groups:SHR positive control group and valsartan treating group ( 30 mg?kg -1?d -1). 10 homogenous Wistar-kyoto (WKY) rats were served as normal control group. Blood pressure and the ratio of left ventricular weight to body weight(LVW/BW)of rats were monitored periodically during the 8-weeks studies. Expression of PTEN in cardiac myocytes was determined by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: Blood pressure and LVW/BW increased in the valsartan group more than those in the SHR control group, and the expression of PTEN in cardiac myocytes in valsartan group increased more than that in the SHR control group, but the indexes were lower than those in the WKY group. CONCLUSION: Valsartan can not only inhibit the progression of cardiac hypertrophy in spontaneously hypertensive rats, but also increase the expression of PTEN. PTEN may play a role in cardiac hypertrophy.

BACKGROUND:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells are considered as commonly used seed cells to construct tissue-engineered for repair of bone and cartilage defects. It is of great significance for cytology and tissue engineering experiments to study the common problems existing in the basic operation and how to avoid these problems in a timely manner. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the common problems existing in the process of operation in order to provide reliable methods about separation, culture and identification of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells for beginners and researchers. These can reduce or avoid some errors and problems during operation. METHODS:Sixteen New Zealand white rabbits were selected as experiment objects, and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were separated from rabbits by iliac puncture, purified and augmented by using density gradient centrifugation combined with adherent culture method. Then cellmorphology was observed by inverted phase contrast microscope, growth curve detected by MTT method and cellphenotype identified by flow cytometry. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:We encountered some problems in the process of separation and culture, when we operated the first five rabbits. After careful y summarizing and analysis of the reasons, the operation was successful y completed on the rest 11 rabbits. Bacteria pol ution and cellaging were not found in the process of cellculture. What is more, the cells at passage 3 appeared with high-expression of CD29, and CD44, but low expression of CD14 and CD34. The cellgrowth curve showed that the proliferation activity of cells at passages 3 and 5 was higher than that at passage 10. Although the technology of separation, culture and identification of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells is mature, the failure wil be happen if we do not pay attention to the details of operation. By strictly carrying out normal operations, we can get high purity of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, which lays a good foundation for celland animal experiments in the future.
