ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the influence of human C-type natriuretic peptide (hCNP) on proliferation of vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Reconstructed pcDNA3.1 (+)/hCNP was transfected into HUVECs with polyethylenimine and its plasmid expression was examined with RT-PCR, immunohistochemistry and Western blot. MTT method was used to determine the effect of expressed protein on proliferation of HUVECs. pcDNA3.1 (+)/hCNP transfection was used for control.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The proliferation of HUVEC 48 h after pcDNA3.1 (+)/hCNP transfection was (0.301 +/- 0.096), which was obviously higher than that with pcDNA3.1 (+) transfection (0.164 +/- 0.012). Reconstructed pcDNA3.1 (+)/hCNP might be expressed in HUVECs effectively and its protein expression was capable of promoting HUVECs proliferation markedly.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The successive expression of reconstructed pcDNA3.1 (+)/hCNP and the promoting activity of its expressed protein on HUVECs lay the foundation potential therapeutic value of C-type natriuretic peptide.</p>
