摘要
目的:应用血管内皮生长因子(vascular endothelialgrowth factor, VEGF) 基因治疗心肌缺血。方法:雄性Wistar 大鼠20 只,结扎冠状动脉前降支造成心肌梗死模型。心脏多点注射构建的pcD2/VEGF真核表达质粒。应用逆转录聚合酶链反应,VEGF免疫组织化学染色,心肌碱性磷酸酶染色及血管计数等方法检测VEGF 基因在缺血心肌中的表达及生物学作用。结果:转移VEGF基因后在大鼠缺血心肌中有VEGFmRNA 高表达, VEGF 免疫组化染色可见VEGF蛋白表达水平升高。心肌碱性磷酸酶染色显示,转移VEGF基因能够促进缺血心肌新生血管的形成。结论:VEGF基因能够在大鼠缺血心肌中获得表达,并发挥其促进新血管形成的作用。为VEGF 基因治疗心肌缺血奠定基础。
Objective: To investigate the efficacy of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene therapy in the myocardial ischemia. Methods: Twenty wistar rats underwent left thoracotomy followed by the ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery. Constructed pcD 2/VEGF eukaryotic expression plasmid 30 μl (10 g·L -1 ) was directly injected into the ischemic myocardium. RT PCR, immunohistochemistry, alkaline phosphatase staining were used to detect VEGF gene expression and biological effect. Results: High levels of VEGF mRNA and protein expression were detected. There was a significant increase in the number of vessels when compared with control group ( P <0.01). Conclusion: VEGF gene application can transfect the ischemic myocardium and express VEGF protein. The VEGF gene product enhances angiogenesis and increases vessel numbers.
