ABSTRACT
AIM:
To observe the changes of nuclear factor-?B (NF-?B) activity and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression in hypoxic pulmonary hypertension(HPH).METHODS:
The rat model of HPH was used. The NF-?B activity and iNOS expression in lung tissue were determined by immunohistochemistry(IHC), in situ hybridization (ISH), RT-PCR and Western blot.RESULTS:
ISH showed that iNOS mRNA expression in intraacinar pulmonary arteriole (IAPA) in H28 d group(hypoxic treatment for 28 days) was stronger than that in normal group, H5d group and H14 d group. RT-PCR showed that the iNOS mRNA in H28 group was 2.1 times, 1.9 times and 1.8 times higher than that in normal group, H5d group and H14 d group, respectively. The nucleic anti-NF-?B stain was observed in H28 d group, which was significantly stronger, but the I-?B amount was 2.8 times, 2.7 times and 2.5 times lower than that in normal group, H5d group and H14 d group, respectively.CONCLUSION:
The activity of NF-?B was correlated with the hypoxic pulmonary vessel structural remodeling and iNOS expression.
