摘要
目的探讨二苯乙烯苷(TSG)对动脉粥样硬化(AS)大鼠一氧化氮(NO)含量及主动脉一氧化氮合酶(NOS)表达的影响。方法SD大鼠60只,♂,随机分为6组:①正常对照组;②模型组;③TSG低剂量组;④TSG中剂量组;⑤TSG高剂量组;⑥辛伐他汀阳性对照组。造模12wk后,颈动脉取血,检测血清NO含量。取血后分离主动脉,保存于-70℃,检测主动脉组织中NOS含量,RT-PCR检测大鼠主动脉eNOS和iNOS mRNA表达。实验数据采用STATA8.0软件进行统计分析。结果与模型组相比,辛伐他汀组和TSG各剂量组均能增加血清及主动脉组织NO的含量、主动脉组织NOS的水平、主动脉组织eNOS mRNA的表达及降低主动脉组织iNOS mRNA的表达,并呈剂量依赖性。结论TSG能上调AS大鼠动脉壁eNOS mRNA的表达,抑制AS大鼠动脉壁iNOS mRNA的表达,这可能是TSG抗AS的机制之一。
Aim To investigate the effects of TSG on the content of nitric oxide and the expression of endo-thelium nitric oxide synthase in artery vessels of experimental atherosclerotic rats.Methods Sixty male rats were randomly divided into six groups.GroupⅠ,Normal control;GroupⅡ,Model control;Group Ⅲ,TSG low dose;Group Ⅳ,TSG middle dose;GroupⅤ,TSG high dose;group Ⅵ,Simvastatin.After 12 weeks,blood samples were collected from carotid arteries of rats,and the levels of NO in serum were measured.After that,the aortas were separated from the bodies and placed in-70℃,then the content of nitric oxide synthase was detected,and gene expression of eNOS and iNOSmRNA in artery vessels were respectively measured with RT-PCR method.STATA 8.0 software was adopted in date analysis..Results compared with those of the model group,the level of NO,the activity of NOS and the gene expression of eNOS were increased,and the gene expression of iNOS was reduced by simvastatin and TSG 30,60,120 mg·kg-1·d-1 in the high cholesterol-fed rats,which showed a dose-dependent effect.Conclusion TSG can enhance the expression of eNOS gene and reduce the expression of iNOS gene in aorta vessels of experimental atherosclerotic rats,which may be one of the anti-atherosclerosis mechanisms of TSG.
