ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the function of recombinant human tissue factor pathway inhibitor1(rTFPI-1)in acute myocardial infarction in rabbit. Method Forty New Zealand White rabbits were subjected to coronary artery occlusion for 120 min and followed by reperfusion for 60 min,then they were ranlow dose rTFPI-1 group(n=10/group).The extent of ischemic area and the extent of myocardial infarction area were measured by Evan's blue stain and TTC stain,respectively.The degrees of infarction severity and ischemic severity were expressed as the ratios of the total left ventrieular wall area.The degrees of infarction severity and ischemic severity in different groups were compared by using one-way ANOVA and then followed by LSD procedure.Results The degree of infarction severity in the larger dose rTFPI-1 group was significantly lessened than that in low dose RTFPI-1 group and control group(P0.05).Conclusions Human rTFPI-1 might decrease myocardial infarction severity and save the survival myocardial tissue.
