方法:以培养的SD大鼠VSMC为模型,采用培养细胞计数、蛋白质定量和细胞周期分析方法及mRNA打点杂交技术,动态观察AVP对VSMC增殖的影响和反义c-myc寡核苷酸的干预效果。
结果:(1)AVP促VSMC数目增加,在48h时与对照组比较,有统计学意义(P<0.05);(2)AVP促VSMC的S期百分率增加,与对照组比较有非常显著性差异(P<0.01);(3) AVP促单个VSMC的蛋白质含量增加,在48h时与对照组比较,差异非常显著(P<0.01);(4)AVP使VSMC的c-myc的mRNA杂交信号比对照组明显地增强;反义c-myc 寡核苷酸与对照组比较,VSMC的c-myc的mRNA杂交信号明显地减弱;(5)反义c-myc寡核苷酸与AVP共同作用组的VSMC数目和细胞S期百分率均小于AVP组和对照组,并均有非常显著性差异(P<0.01);(6)反义c-myc寡核苷酸与AVP共同作用组 VSMC的c-myc癌基因mRNA杂交信号强度明显地高于对照组,而低于AVP组;(7)反义c-myc寡核苷酸和AVP共同作用组的单个VSMC蛋白质含量高于对照组(P<0.01);与AVP组比较无显著性差异(P>0.05)。
结论:AVP促VSMC增殖作用与c-myc癌基因超常表达有关;反义c-myc寡核苷酸特异性抑制VSMC的c-myc癌基因表达,并拮抗AVP的促VSMC增殖作用。但反义c-myc寡核苷酸不能拮抗AVP的促VSMC蛋白质合成作用,说明VSMC的蛋白质合成不依赖于c-myc癌基因的表达。此提示反义c-myc 寡核苷酸不能完全逆转高血压引起的血管重构,说明反义c-myc寡核苷酸在防治高血压病的临床应用中具有局限性。
要点:精氨酸加压素(AVP)会使培养的血管平滑肌细胞数量增加,细胞进入S期的数量增加,细胞c-myc癌基因的mRNA表达增加。由DNA自动合成仪合成的反义c-myc核酸片段5 μmol/L加入AVP 1×10-7mmol/L的培养中,表现细胞数量减少,S期细胞数量减少,细胞c-myc癌基因的mRNA表达减少,但不能拮抗AVP的促VDMC一般蛋白质合成,存在一定的局限性。

ABSTRACT Aim:To investgate the effect of AVP on rat smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) proliferation and observe the interference effect of antisence c-myc oligodeoxynucleotides on AVP action.
Methods:By means of the cell counting method,protein content measurement,cell cycle analysis and mRNA dot blot hybridzation techniques,cultured VSMCs derived from the aorta of Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat were used to dynamically observe the effect of AVP on VSMCs proliferation and interference effect of antisense c-myc oligodeoxynucleotides.
Results:(1) the number of VSMCs induced by AVP was significantly increased in comparision with that of the control at 48h (P<0.05); (2) the percentage of S stage of VSMCs induced by AVP was significantly increased in comparision with that of the control (P<0.01); (3) protein content of single VSMC induced by AVP was significantly increased in comparision with that of the control at 48h (P<0.01); (4) compared with the control,AVP could enhance the level of c-myc mRNA expression,but antisence c-myc could decrease the level of c-myc mRNA expression; (5) the cell number and the percentage of S stage VSMCs incubated with antisense c-myc and AVP together decreased more remarkably than those of the control and AVP group (P<0.01); (6) the level of c-myc mRNA expression of VSMCs incubated with antisense c-myc and AVP was higher than that of the control,but lower than that of AVP group;(7) protein content of single VSMC incubated with antisense c-myc and AVP together was remarkly higher than that of the control (P<0.01),but was not different from that of AVP group (P>0.05).
Conclusion:The effect of AVP-induced VSMCs proliferation and hypertrophy was related to c-myc overexpression,antisense c-myc oligonucleotides specially inhibited c-myc expression and AVP-induced VSMCs proliferation. But antisense c-myc could not inhibit the effect of AVP-induced VSMCs protein synthesis. It suggests that VSMCs protein synthesis was independent of the c-myc oncogene expression and that antisense c-myc could not completely reverse the vascular remodeling of EH. The clinical value of antisense c-myc in preventing and treating EH is limited.

业已证实,血管平滑肌细胞(VSMC)的异常增殖在高血压发病中具有重要意义。精氨酸加压素(AVP)作为一种心血管调节肽,广泛存在于循环和组织中,VSMC中也含有AVP的多肽及其mRNA[1]。文献报道,AVP与高血压发病有关[2];VSMC的增殖与癌基因的异常表达亦有关,其中c-myc在VSMC的增殖中起重要作用[3,4]。本实验在研究 AVP促VSMC增殖的基础上,进一步探讨反义c-myc寡核苷酸(c-myc asON)对AVP诱导VSMC增殖作用的干预效应。
