摘要:

文题释义:

血管新生:是在原有毛细血管或微静脉基础上,通过内皮细胞的增殖、分化和迁移,以芽生或非芽生的形式生成新血管的过程。血管新生既参与机体生理情况下的血管生成,同时是伤口愈合和缺血组织修复的重要保障。
Notch信号:是血管正常发育必需的关键信号通路之一,参与组织血管新生过程多个步骤,包括尖端细胞和柄细胞分化、柄细胞增殖、内皮细胞迁移和黏附、血管重塑以及动静脉分化,同时参与间充质干细胞向内皮细胞分化,在缺血性心脑血管相关疾病的发生发展过程中发挥重要作用。

背景:心肌缺血是心肌梗死后心功能受损的主要原因之一,Notch通路参与血管新生过程,但其下游分子Notch受体胞内部分(Notch intracellular domain,NICD)/Hes1在心肌梗死后缺血心肌血管新生中发挥何种作用,研究尚少。
目的:借助Notch γ分泌酶抑制剂RO4929097,探讨NICD/Hes1对心肌梗死后小鼠心功能及缺血心肌血管新生的影响。
方法:按随机数字表法将C57BL/6小鼠分为假手术组、模型组和RO4929097组,每组10只,后2组C57BL/6小鼠通过结扎左前降支冠状动脉建立心肌梗死模型,RO4929097组小鼠术后第2天按10 mg/(kg·d)每天灌胃1次,假手术组和模型组小鼠给予等体积生理盐水,灌胃20 d。第21天超声检测小鼠左室射血分数,马松染色观察心肌梗死面积及病理组织学变化,免疫荧光法检测缺血心肌CD31水平,酶联免疫吸附法检测血清血管内皮生长因子和碱性成纤维细胞生长因子水平,免疫蛋白印迹技术检测心肌组织缺氧诱导因子1α、心肌营养素1及NICD、Hes1蛋白表达量。

结果与结论:①模型组小鼠左室射血分数较假手术组显著降低(P < 0.001),与模型组比较,RO492909组左室射血分数降低更明显(P < 0.05);②马松染色后,模型组及RO492909组小鼠梗死面积较假手术组显著增加(P < 0.001),RO492909组梗死面积较模型组增加明显(P < 0.05);③模型组小鼠心肌CD31平均吸光度值较假手术组升高明显(P < 0.001),RO492909组CD31平均吸光度值较模型组明显降低(P < 0.001);④模型组、RO4929097组小鼠血清血管内皮生长因子水平较假手术组明显升高(P < 0.05),RO492909组血管内皮生长因子较模型组升高明显(P < 0.01);⑤模型组小鼠心肌组织缺氧诱导因子1α、心肌营养素1水平较假手术组明显增加(P < 0.01),RO492909组两者表达量较模型组均降低;与假手术组比较,模型组小鼠NICD蛋白表达明显增加(P < 0.01),RO492909组NICD表达量较模型组降低(P < 0.01);与模型组比较,RO492909组小鼠Hes1水平降低(P < 0.05);⑥结果说明,RO4929097可能通过抑制Notch γ分泌酶活性,降低NICD/Hes1表达,从而减少缺血心肌血管新生,降低心肌梗死小鼠左室射血分数。

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Myocardial ischemia is one of the main causes of cardiac function impairment after myocardial infarction. Notch is involved in the process of angiogenesis, but whether Notch intracellular domain (NICD)/Hes1 is involved in myocardial angiogenesis after myocardial infarction has not been studied.
OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of NICD /Hes1 pathway on cardiac function and angiogenesis in the ischemic myocardium of myocardial infarction mice with the aid of RO4929097, a Notch γ secretase inhibitor.
METHODS: C57BL/6 mice were randomized into sham, model and RO4929097 groups, with 10 mice in each group. Myocardial infarction model was established in the latter two groups by ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery of C57BL/6 mice. Mice in the RO4929097 group were administered RO4929097 by gavage at the dose of 10 mg/(kg·d) on day 2 after surgery, and those in the sham and model groups were given an equal volume of saline by gavage for 20 days. On day 21, mice were examined by ultrasound for left ventricular ejection fraction, Matson staining for myocardial infarct area and pathohistological changes and immunofluorescence for CD31 in ischemic myocardium. Enzyme-linked immunofluorescence was used to detect the levels of serum vascular endothelial growth factor and basic fibroblast growth factor. Western blot assay was used to detect the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α, cardiotrophin 1, NICD and Hes1 in myocardial tissue.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The left ventricular ejection fraction value in the model group was significantly lower than that in the sham group (P < 0.001), while compared with the model group, the left ventricular ejection fraction value was significantly lowered in the RO4929097 group (P < 0.05). Masson staining revealed an significantly increased infarct size in the model group and RO4929097 group compared with the sham group (P < 0.001) as well as an obviously increased infarct size in the RO4929097 group compared with the model group (P < 0.05). The mean absorbance value of CD31 significantly increased in the model group compared with the sham group (P < 0.001) and significantly decreased in the RO4929097 group compared with the model group (P < 0.001). Compared with the sham group, the levels of serum vascular endothelial growth factor and basic fibroblast growth factor significantly increased in the model and RO4929097 groups (P < 0.05); and the levels of these two factors were significantly higher in the RO4929097 group than the model group (P < 0.01). The protein expression levels of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α, cardiotrophin 1 were significantly increased in the model group compared with the sham group (P < 0.01) but decreased in the RO492909 group. The protein expression of NICD significantly increased in the model group compared with the sham group (P < 0.01) but decreased in the RO492909 group compared with the model group (P < 0.01). Compared with the sham group, the level of Hes1 was significantly decreased in the RO492909 group (P < 0.05). To conclude, RO4929097 may decrease NICD/Hes1 expression by inhibiting Notchγ secretase activity, thereby reducing ischemic myocardial revascularization and decreasing left ventricular ejection fraction in mice with myocardial infarction.
