摘要
目的:探讨肝窦内皮细胞(SECs)损伤和表型改变与大鼠肝硬化门脉高压的关系。方法:采用二甲基亚硝胺(DMN)4周12次腹腔注射复制大鼠肝硬化模型,分别于造模后1d、2d、3d、1周、2周、4周、6周、8周作动态观察;肠系膜前静脉分支插管法测门脉压力(Ppv);透射电镜观察肝组织超微结构;免疫组化观察肝窦壁CD44和Ⅷ因子相关抗原(vWF)表达;Northernblot检测肝组织内皮素-1(ET-1)mRNA和内皮型一氧化氮合酶(eNOS)mRNA表达;Westernblot检测肝组织eNOS表达;放射免疫法测定血清透明质酸(HA)和肝组织ET-1含量。结果:DMN造模1d后CD44染色明显弱于正常对照组(P<0.05),SECs窗孔减少,血清HA含量显著高于正常对照组(P<0.05);DMN造模2d后vWF阳性染色明显强于正常对照组(P<0.05);DMN大鼠的Ppv与肝窦壁vWF表达量和血清HA含量呈显著正相关(P<0.05);造模2d和3d时ET-1mRNA表达强于正常对照组,ET-1含量轻度高于正常对照组;造模1d、2d和3d时eNOSmRNA表达强于正常对照组,而eNOS一直呈低水平状态。结论:SECs损伤和表型改变是DMN大鼠肝硬化门脉高压形成的病理基础之一;ET-1和NO产生的平衡失调,使肝内血流阻力增加,在门脉高压形成过程中起重要作用。
AIM: To study the role of injury and phenotype shift of hver sinusoidal endothelial cells in the development of portal hypertension of liver cirrhosis in rats. METHODS: The rat hver cirrhosis model was estabhshed by peritoneal injection of dimethylnitrosamine (DMN) (at a dose of 10 mg·kg^-1, 3 times a week, for 4 weeks). The dynamic changes of liver cirrhosis were observed at different time points ( 1 day, 2 days, 3 days, 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks and 8 weeks). The pressure of por- tal vein (Ppv), the expression of CD44, yon Willebrand factor (vWF), endothelin- 1 (ET- 1) mRNA and endothehal nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) mRNA, the serum hyaluronic acid (HA) content and liver ET- 1 content were measured. RESULTS: Compared with the normal control rats, CD44 positive staining was weak in the 1 day model rats, and the numbers of fenestrae of sinusoidal endothelial cells (SECs) rapidly decreased, but serum HA content rapidly increased ( P 〈 0.05). vWF positive staining in the 2 - day model rats was stronger than that in normal control rats ( P 〈 0.05). There was a positive correlation between the Ppv and the vWF expression, serum HA content in the DMN - induced liver cirrhosis rats ( P 〈 0.05). Compared with the normal control rots, ET- 1 mRNA expression increased in the 2 - day and 3 - day model rats, and ET- 1 content lightly increased, eNOS mRNA expression was stronger in the 1 - day, 2 - day and 3 - day model rats than that in normal control rots, meanwhile eNOS always expressed at a low level. CONCLUSION: The injury and phenotype shift of SECs is a oathological basis in the develolpment of portal hypertension of DMN- induced liver cirrhosis in rats. Imbalance of ET- 1 and NO production increases intrahepatic resistance, which plays an important' role in the development of portal hypertension.
