Abstract
|
[Objective] To investigate the effect of Salvianolic acid B-preconditioned endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) combined withbone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) on angiogenesis in rats with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).[Methods] EPCs and BMSc werecultivated in vitro, purified by density-gradient centrifugation and plastic adherence method and identified by immunofluorescence andimmunocytochemistry (CD34/CD133/CD44).Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) was produced in rats by ligation of the coronary artery.EPCs preconditioned with Salvianolic acid B combined with BMSCs was injected into the five points of heart ischemic area.Four weekslater, we examined rat by ultrasonocardiograph, and the expression of Nkx2.5, GATA-4 by real-time PCR.[Results] The IOD of VEGFand bFGF in EPCs and BMSCs group were 13.179±3.053, 23.634±4.705 respectively.It was increased remarkably comparing with thecontrol group.[Conclusion] The EPCs preconditioned with Salvianolic acid B can improve the vascular microenvironment of BMSCstransplantation. |
