摘　　要：为了解心肌肥厚时基因表达谱的变化规律,本实验复制了三种大鼠心肌肥厚模型:肾上腹主动脉缩窄(suprarenal abdominal aortic stenosis,SRS)、动静脉瘘(arterial-vein fistula,AVF)和去甲肾上腺素持续静脉输注(jugular vein infusion of norepinephrine,NEi),并应用组织化学方法和超声心动术检测大鼠心脏结构和功能指标,应用cDNA基因芯片技术检测心脏基因表达水平的变化。SRS和NEi引起大鼠向心性心肌肥厚,AvF引起大鼠离心性心肌肥厚,其中NEi大鼠心肌纤维化明显。对不同心肌肥厚模型间大鼠左心室基因表达谱的变化进行两两比较。结果显示,有部分基因在不同模型中表达水平均发生变化,其中多数基因在两种模型中表达水平改变的方向相同,也有少部分基因在两种模型中表达水平改变方向相反。综合比较三种心肌肥厚模型的基因表达谱,各种模型都有特异的基因表达变化,但是有19个基因在三种心肌肥厚模型中表达水平均发生改变。研究结果有可能成为心肌肥厚的标志性基因或治疗靶点,为心肌肥厚发生机制的深入研究提供了新的线索。To get insights into the principles of gene expression changes during cardiac hypertrophy, three rat cardiac hypertrophy models were prepared, i.e., suprarenal abdominal aortic stenosis (SRS), arterial-vein fistula (AVF) and continuous jugular vein infusion of norepinephrine (NEi). The cardiac function and structure were analyzed by echocardiograph as well as histological examination. Total RNA of left ventricles was extracted and gene expression profiles were analyzed by cDNA microarray. SRS and NEi induced concentric cardiac hypertrophy and AVF induced eccentric hypertrophy in rats, among which NEi caused obvious cardiac fibrosis. The changes of gene expression profiles were compared comprehensively across different pathologic cardiac hypertrophy models. While gene expression profiles of different cardiac hypertrophy models compared with pairs, parts of the genes involved were found overlapped, and mostly the gene expression changed in the same direction between two models, but some of them changed in the opposite directions. Expression levels of 19 genes were found changed across all cardiac hypertrophy models, and genes relatively regulated in a specific model was also found when comparison of all the three models was carried out. Novel clues for further study might derive from the results mentioned above, and some genes might be the marker genes of cardiac hypertrophy or the targets of therapy.
