Effect of Fuzheng Huayu Capsule(扶正化瘀胶囊) on the Metabolism of Extracellular Matrix in Rats with Myocardial Fibrosis after Myocardial Infarction
Objective To explore the possible mechanism of Fuzheng Huayu Capsule(扶正化瘀胶囊) in treating myocardial fibrosis after myocardial infarction. Methods Twenty-four rats were randomly divided into model group
Fuzheng Huayu group
captopril group and sham operation group
with 6 rats in each group. Except for the sham operation group
the other groups were treated with left anterior descending coronary artery ligation to prepare myocardial infarction model in rats. After the modeling
the Fuzheng Huayu group was given Fuzheng Huayu Capsule 0. 4 g/(kg·d) by gavage
the captopril group was given captopril 2. 25 mg/(kg·d) by gavage
and both the sham operation and model groups were given equal volume of deionized water by gavage. Each group was treated 1 times a day for8 weeks. Myocardial collagen volume fraction(CVF) was detected by Sirius red staining. The expression of type I collagen
matrix metalloproteinase 2(MMP-2)
matrix metalloproteinase 9(MMP-9)
tissue inhibitor of metallopeptidase 1(TIMP-1)
tissue inhibitor of metallopeptidase 2(TIMP-2) protein and mRNA were separately detected by immunohistochemistry and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR. Results Compared with the sham operation group
the expression of CVF
MMP-2/TIMP-2 and type I collagen
MMP-2
MMP-9
TIMP-1
TIMP-2 protein and mRNA were increased in the model group(P < 0. 05 or P < 0. 01). Compared with the model group
the expression of CVF
MMP-2/TIMP-2 and type I collagen
MMP-2
MMP-9
TIMP-1
TIMP-2 protein and mRNA were decreased in the Fuzheng Huayu group and captopril group(P < 0. 05 or P < 0. 01). Compared with the captopril group
the expression of CVF and TIMP-1 protein was increased and the TIMP-1 mRNA expression was decreased in Fuzheng Huayu group(P < 0. 05 or P < 0. 01). Conclusion Fuzheng Huayu Capsule could improve myocardial fibrosis after myocardial infarction in rats. Its mechanism may be related to the regulation of the expression of MMP-2
MMP-9
TIMP-1
TIMP-2 protein and mRNA and MMP-2/TIMP-2 and MMP-9/TIMP-1.
