AIM: To study the effect of cocaine on caspase-3 in myocardiac cells of male rats in different age. METHODS: Three-week-old(n=16), six-week-old(n=16) and twelve-week-old (n=16) male Sprague-Dawley rats were all divided into control groups and experiment groups randomly, each group had eight animals, experiment groups were given cocaine hydrochloride (15 mg·kg-1 body weight) subcutaneously daily for four weeks. The ratio of heart weight to body weight (HW/BW, mg/g) were measured. DNA fragmentation of myocardia cells was determined by gel electrophoresis, and caspase-3 activity in myocardia cells was tested by flow cytometry (FCM). RESULTS: In three experiment groups, the DNA isolated from myocardial cells displayed clear ladder pattern. The HW/BW and the caspase-3 activity were increased significantly than those of control groups (P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Cocaine induced apoptosis in rat myocardial cells. The increase in caspase-3 activity may be the one of important pathways related to the induction of apoptosis. 相似文献

AIM:To investigate the effects of fibronectin (FN) on the proliferation and collagen synthesis in cultured rat cardiac fibroblasts (CFb) derived from SHR (CFbSHR) and WKY (CFbWKY). METHODS:CFb derived from 12-week-old spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) and WKY was cultured by outgrowth of tissue block. Cell proliferation of CFb was measured by cell number counting and[3H]-TdR incorporation using 24-well plates pre-coated with 5 μg/cm2 of FN. Collagen synthesis was determined by [3H]-proline incorporation. RESULTS:As compared with control, the cell number of fibroblasts derived from SHR and WKY were significantly increased to 163.75% and 170.42% respectively after 72 h incubation with FN in the presence of 0.4% FCS from a intial cell density of 1×104 cells/mL. DNA synthesis of CFb was markedly promoted by FN. FN induced an increased in [3H]-proline incorporation in both CFbSHR and CFbWKY. CONCLUSION:FN is able to promote cell proliferation and collagen synthesis of CFb derived both from SHR and WKY. 相似文献

AIM: To study the electrophysiological characteristics of ion channels of stem cell derived cardiomyocytes(SCDC) of mouse. METHODS: Embryonic stem cells of D3 line(ES-D3) were cultured on the MEF feeder layer with BRL conditioned medium, and fetal mouse heart cells(FMHC)were cultured in vitro. Then ES-D3 cells were induced to differentiate into many kinds of cells. SCDC were harvested on day 12 after differentiation initiating and identified by electro-microscope and immunocytochemistry. SCDC and FMHC were prepared for the patch-clamp research. Sodium and calcium currents together were elicited and compared between SCDC and FMHC. RESULTS: The current characteristics of sodium and calcium channels of SCDC were very similar to FMHC. CONCLUSION: The functional expression of ion channels occurred during ES-D3 cells differentiation and the electrophysiological characteristics of sodium and calcium channels of SCDC are very similar to FMHC. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the changes of myocardium glycogen content and the relation ship between changes of the myocardial glycogen content and the myocardial function. METHODS: Male Wistar rats were placed in (hypoxia rats) and made to swim in (hypoxia swimming rats) a hypobaxic chamber simulating an altitude of 5 000 m above sea level. The content of myocardium glycogens was determined by colorimetry. RESULTS: The myocardium
glycogen content of rats significantly reduced along with the prolongation of hypoxic exposure and approached to control level in hypoxia swimming rats. The myocardial function of right ventricule was improved significantly compared with control group.CONCLUSION: Moderate exercise (swimming) is beneficial to hypoxic adaptation of rats under the condition of chronic hypoxia. 相似文献

AIM:To investigate the protein expression of cyclin D2 and p16 in proliferation and differentiation of cultured cardiac myocytes.METHODS:One-day-old Sparague-Dawley rats were used. Cardiac myocytes(CM) were collected by a trypsin-dispersal method and cultured. Cell growth line and fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS) were used to investigate the proliferation of CM. Ultra-thin sections were made to observe the ultrastructure of CM under transmission electron microscope. The expression of cyclin D2 and p16 in CM were measured using immunocytochemistry and image analysis.RESULTS:①Results of cell growth line and FACS analysis showed that cultured CM could proliferate in the first 3 cultured days, but the ability decreased quickly, concomitant with differentiation. CM was obseved quiescent in cell cycle three days later. The ultrastructure of CM showed the large amount of myofilaments and mitochondrion. ②The protein expression of cyclin D2 in 3,4,5 day CM group was 0.89 times(P＜0.05),0.80 times (P＜0.05) and 0.56 times (P＜0.01) of that in 1 day group, respectively. The expression of p16 in CM was increased during the culture process, 2,3,4,5 day group were 1.63 times, 1.72 times, 1.99 times and 2.84 times (P＜0.01) of that in 1 day group, respectively.CONCLUSION:Cultured neonatal rat cardiac myocytes could proliferate during the first 3 days after incubation, but the ability of proliferation decreased, from the fourth day, concomitant with differentiation. Cyclin D2 and p16 play the key roles in CM postnatal development. Downregulation of cyclin D2 and upregulation of p16 may induce CM differentiation. 相似文献

AIM:To investigate the changes in intracellular potassium activity(aiK) and membrane potential(Vm) induced by low external sodium infusion (Low [Na]o) and to detect the mechanisms involved and the relationship between aiK and Vm. METHODS:aiK and Vm were measured in infusion with different sodium concentrations using methods of convenient and ion selective microelectrodes in guinea pig ventricular myocardium. RESULTS:Low [Na]o resulted in a decrease in aiK and an increase in Vm in a Na+ concentration-dependent manner.At the same time,contraction and resting potential increased, and action potential duration decreased markedly,but action potential amplitude was not affected. A change of the pH from 7.4 to 7.0 in low [Na]o solution reduced the decrease in aiK, but did not affect the increase in Vm.CONCLUSION:A better linear relationship appeared between the changes in aik and [Na]o or in Vm and [Na]o,while during each low [Na]o the change in both aiK or Vm may reach a new balance level. 相似文献

AIM: To evaluate the different conditions inducing mouse embryonic stem cells (ESC) in vitro to differentiate into cardiomyocytes. METHODS: BRL conditioned medium was used to promote the growth of ESC and maintain them in an undifferentiated state. During the inducing process, retinoic acid (RA), DMSO, activin-A and TGF-β1 were used as inducing reagents, and made up six kinds of differentiating medium. Then a three-step method inducing ESC cultured in hanging drops, in suspension and in plating was used to induce the differentiation of ESC. RESULTS: ESC were induced in vitro to differentiate into cardiomyocytes. Of all groups, the highest differentiating rate was observed in the group induced by activin-A (20 μg/L) and TGF-β1 (2 μg/L). CONCLUSION: The inducing conditions including activin-A (20 μg/L) and TGF-β1 (2 μg/L) is very valuable in inducing ESC differentiation into cardiomyocytes. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the role of heat-shock protein 70(HSP70) in the protection of myocardial cells against ischemic injury.METHODS: Myocardial cells were cultured in vitro. HSP70 was induced by hyperthermia. H2O2-injured myocardial cells were divided into different groups. Flow cytometry, DNA Ladder and biochemistry methods were employed to observe the myocardial cells of different groups.RESULTS: Immunohistochemistry showed hyperthermia induced the up-regulation of HSP70 in myocardial cells. Apoptotic rate, activity analysis of cytochrome C and succinic dehydrogenase in H2O2-injuried and HSP70-protected groups were obviously different. Electron micrograph shomed hyperthermia alliviated myocardial cell injury induced by H2O2. CONCLUSION: HSP70 delays apoptosis and protects against H2O2-induced myocardial cell injury. 相似文献

AIM: To explore a new method of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) inducing bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) to differentiate into cardiomyocytes. METHODS: Bone marrow MSC was cultured with DMEM media (10% fetal calf serum) 4-6 passages, and induced by HGF (10 μg/L) for 30 d. Automatical beating of the differentiated cells was observed daily with transverse microscopy, or under condition of 0.1% isoproterenol or cal-cium-deprived incubation. Specific cardiac myosin in the cells was indentified by immunochemistry. RESULTS: At 14-20 d of differentiation, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells formed clones, in 10%-50% of which spontaneous beating cell-mass had come to continuously exist. Isoproterenol increased the beating rate and calcium-deprived media inhibited the beating. The cells were identified to be cardiomyocytes by expression of cardiac myosin heavy chain. CONCLUSION: HGF may induce bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells into cardiomyocytes with high efficiency, but the differentiating pathway of stem cells remains to be further studied. 相似文献
