ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect and its mechanism of Guanxinning tablet on carotid atherosclerotic plaque in a rat model.Methods The rats were randomly divided into control group,model group(to construct carot-id atherosclerosis plaque model),Guanxinning groups with low,medium and high dose of Guanxinning tablet(150,300 and 600 mg/kg),atorvastatin group(2 mg/kg),lithiumchloridemonohydrate(LiCl)(Wnt/β-catenin pathway activator)group(15 mg/kg),and Guanxinning plus LiCl group(600 mg/kg Guanxinning tablets+15 mg/kg LiCl),with 12 rats in each group.The intervention began at the third week and was administered once a day for 8 weeks.Olympus Au2700 automatic biochemical analyzer was used to detect the level of total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),low density lipoprotein(LDL)and high-density lipoprotein(HDL)in rat serum;ELISA was applied to detect the level of monocyte chemotactic protein(MCP-1)and hyper-sensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)in rat se-rum;the level of oxidized low density lipoprotein(ox-LDL)and malondialdehyde(MDA)in rat serum were detected by spectrophotometry;HE staining was applied to find pathological changes in the common carotid artery of rats;Western blot was applied to detect the expression of Wnt3a,matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9)and β-catenin in rat common carotid artery.Results Compared with the control group,the level of TG,TC,LDL,MCP-1,hs-CRP,ox-LDL,protein expression of MDA,MMP-9,Wnt3a,β-catenin and total plaque area/total arterial area ratio in-creased,the HDL level decreased in model group(P<0.05);compared with the model group,the level of TG,TC,LDL,MCP-1,hs-CRP,ox-LDL,MDA,expression of MMP-9,Wnt3a,β-catenin protein and total plaque area/total arterial area ratio in the low,medium,and high dose groups of Guanxinning tablets decreased,the HDL level in-creased.The effect of Guanxinning tablets was dose-dependent,and the change trend of corresponding indicators in the LiCl group was opposite to the above(P<0.05);compared with the high dose group of Guanxinning tablets,the TG,TC,LDL,MCP-1,hs-CRP,ox-LDL,MDA levels,MMP-9,Wnt3a,β-catenin protein expression,and total plaque area/total arterial area ratio in the high dose+LiCl group of Guanxinning tablets increased,the HDL level de-creased(P<0.05).Conclusions Guanxinning tablet can inhibit the formation of atherosclerotic plaque in rats and the mechanismis potentially related to the regulation of Wnt/β-catenin pathway.
