RÉSUMÉ

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the effects of puerarin on pulmonary Vascular remodeling in rats with pulmonary hypertension induced by chronic hypoxia and hypercapnia.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>Forty male rats (180-220) g of grade two were randomly divided into five groups: normal control group (NC), hypoxia-hypercapnia 1, 2, 3 week groups (LH1, LH2, LH3) and hypoxia-hypercapnia 3-week + puerarin group (LHP3 group, puerarin intraperitoneal injection, 20 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1)). Collagen I, III and their mRNA were observed in pulmonary arterioles by the technique of immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>Light microscopy showed media thickness of pulmonary arterioles was much higher in LH3 group than that of NC group, and, vessel cavity turned more straiter in LH3 group than that of NC group. Howerer, the damage of pulmonary arterioles in LHP3 group was much slighter than that of LH3 group. The levels of plasma ET-1 and lung homogenates Hyr and MDA were much higher in rats of LH3 group than those of NC group (P < 0.01), and lower in LHP3 group than LH3 groups (P < 0.01). The activities of SOD in lung homogenates were significantly lowered in hypoxic and hypercapnic groups compared with control group (P < 0.01), but higher in LHP3 group than that of LH3 group. Plasma NO content of group LH was lower than that of group NC (P < 0.01), it was highter in group LHP3 than that of group LH3 (P < 0.01). Expression of collagen I and collagen I mRNA in pulmonary arterioles were significantly higher in rats of LH groups than those of NC group (P < 0.01), and they were lower in rats of LHP3 group than those of LH3 group (P < 0. 01). Expression of collagen III and collagen III mRNA were not significant difference among three groups.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Puerarin could improve pulmonary vascular remodeling in rats with pulmonary hypertension by inhibiting the deposition of collagen.</p>

RÉSUMÉ

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effects of Compound Salvia injection (CSI) on the number and activity of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs).</p><p><b>METHOD</b>Mononuclear fraction of human umbilical cord blood was obtained by density gradient centrifugation and plated on fibronectin coated culture dishes. Cells were divided in to five groups: group control, group VEGF, group CSI 50, group CSI 10 and group CSI 2 (supplemented with none cytokine, VEGF 10 ng x mL(-1), CSI 50, 10, 2 microg x mL(-1), respectively). After six days in culture, cell clusters were viewed with an inverted microscope, fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) analysis of PE-CD34 and FITC-VE-Cadherin was performed to detect number of EPCs, adhesion assay was performed by replating cells on fibronectin coated dishes, and then counting adherent cells.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>Numbers of EPCs of group VEGF, group CSI 10 and group CSI 2 were significantly increased as compared with those of group control ( P < 0.01, P < 0.05, P < 0.01, respectively), and numbers of EPCs of group CSI 2 were more than those of group CSI 10 and group V (P < 0.01). Compared with group control, number of EPCs of group CSI 50 was significantly decreased (P < 0.01). Compared with group control, numbers of clusters and adhesive EPCs of group CSI 10 and group CSI 2 were significantly increased, while those of group CSI 50 were significantly decreased.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Low concentration CSI can significantly promote EPCs augmentation and enhance its functional activity, while high concentration CSI significantly restrains it.</p>

RÉSUMÉ

Aim To investigate the effects of perindopril, an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor, on mean pulmonary arterial pressure(mPAP) and pulmonary vascular remodeling.Methods Using the normobaric hypoxia-hypercapnia rat model,the changes of plasma angiotensin Ⅱ (Ang Ⅱ), mPAP and ultrastructure of pulmonary arteriolar wall were observed after administration of perindopril.Results The mPAP and AngⅡ were significantly greater and the ultrastructure of the small lung vessels had a more obvious change in the 4 weeks hypoxia-hypercapnia group than those in the control group.It was also found that perindopril decreased AngⅡ, declined mPAP and ameliorated vascular ultrastructure change.But the change of ultrastructure was similar in the 8 weeks hypoxia-hypercapnia group and perindopril treatment group.Conclusion It is suggested that chronic hypoxia-hypercapnia should induce the remodeling of pulmonary arteriolar structure via AngⅡ and that perindopril could ease pulmonary vascular remodeling in early stage.
