中文摘要
冠状动脉的球囊扩张是一个至关重要的
在治疗患有冠状动脉疾病的患者中的模式。
虽然初始成功率超过90%,但再狭窄发生在25至20%的患者中。
50%的患者在手术后数周或数月。 再狭窄是
由于平滑肌细胞(SMC)的激活,
中膜:球囊血管成形术损伤后,
并迁移到脑膜下,从而导致再狭窄。 我们
参与了旨在开发治疗方法的研究,
再狭窄 在这些研究中,我们使用反义
多聚脱氧核苷酸(ODNS)选择性抑制生长因子,
导致SMC增殖。 蛋白质是通过翻译
mRNA。 mRNA传达了一个真实的信息;即。它包含一个

与有义mRNA完全互补的核苷酸称为

使用大鼠主动脉SMC,我们已经测试了针对C-myc的ODNS。 C-myc是一种

使用与c-myc mRNA互补的寡脱氧核苷酸(ODN),
反义寡核苷酸可能是SMC增殖的有效抑制剂,

英文摘要
Balloon dilatation of the coronary arteries is a critically important
modality in treating patients suffering from coronary artery disease.
Although the initial success rate is over 90%, restenosis occurs in 25 to
50% of patients weeks or months following the procedure. Restenosis is
due to activation of smooth muscle cells (SMC) that normally reside in
the media: after they are injured by balloon angioplasty they proliferate
and migrate to the subentema, such that they can lead to restenosis. We
are involved in research aimed at developing therapy to prevent
restenosis. In these studies we are using antisense
olygodeoxynucleotides (ODNS) to selectively inhibit growth factors that
cause SMC proliferation. Proteins are synthesized by translation of
mRNA. The mRNA conveys a real message; ie. it contains the code for a
specific protein. This is called the "sense" message. The sequence of
nucleotides that are the exact compliment of the sense mRNA is called
antisense,--it does not encode a message that can be translated into a
protein. The antisense sequence binds to the sense mRNA, thereby
interfering with translation.
Using rat aortic SMC, we have tested ODNS targeted to C-myc. C-myc is an
immediate early response gene induced by various mitogens, and several
lines of .'evidence derived from experiments using transformed or
hematopoietic cell lines, or transgenic mice, suggest its protein product
plays a role in numerous signaling transduction pathways, including those
modulating cell division. We therefore reasoned that a strategy
employing oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) complementary to c-myc mRNA
(antisense ODNs) might be potent inhibitors of SMC proliferation, and
perhaps of SMC migration. We found that antisense ODNs inhibited, in a
concentration-dependent manner, both SMC proliferation and SMC migration.
These results indicate that the c-myc gene product is involved in the
signal transduction pathways mediating SMC proliferation and migration.
The results also suggest a potential role of antisense strategies
designed to inhibit c-myc expression for the prevention of coronary
restenosis.
