ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effect of placental growth factor (PlGF) on revascularization after acute myocardial infarction.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Myocardial infarction model was established by ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery in Wistar rats. Thirty AMI rats were divided into 3 groups with 10 in each group PlGF, mouse VEGFR-1/Flt-1 antibody, or saline (control group) was injected in the infarcted border zone for each group, respectively. Two weeks later the hemodynamics parameters were measured with a left ventricular needle catheter and a biological signal analysis system; left ventricular remodeling was observed by HE staining; angiogenesis was examined by immunohistochemistry and cardiomyocyte apoptosis rate was detected by TUNEL.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The stroke volume, systolic pressure and left ventricular developed pressure in PlGF group were all higher than those in control group (112±7 vs 65.63±8.50 μl, P<0.01; 131.61±9.26 vs 94.84±8.53 mm Hg, P<0.01 and 175.85±11.36 vs 105.50±15.83 mm Hg, P<0.01; respectively). PlGF animals had less ventricular dilation (left ventricular diameter 8.20±0.14 vs 9.25±0.32 mm, P<0.01) and increased left ventricular wall thickness (1.81±0.10 vs 1.35±0.10 mm, P<0.01) compared to controls. The geometry parameter of anti-VEGFR1 and control animals was almost the same. PlGF animals had increased angiogenesis compared to controls (29.44±5.75 vs 15.88±2.42 endothelial cells/high-powered field, P<0.01); the alpha smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) showed that PlGF animal had a higher density of artery than others (25.14±1.83 vs 19.70±2.52 arteries/mm(2), P<0.01), and the density of artery in anti-VEFGR1 group was less than the controls. The apoptosis rate of cardiomyocytes in PlGF animals was significantly lower than that in controls (9.51%±2.75% vs 37.81%±8.74%, P<0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Regional delivery of PlGF following acute myocardial infarction can improve cardiac function and left ventricular remodeling, enhance angiogenesis and reduce cardiomyocyte apoptosis rate. PlGF may be a potential agent in adjuvant therapy for acute myocardial infarction.</p>
