Abstract

배경: AT$_1$수용체의 길항제가 세포 수준에서 심근을 재관류 손사으로부터 보호할수 있다는 것으로 알려져 있지만, 생체내에서의 효과나 그 기전은 아직 명확히 밝혀지지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 백서 심근 허혈 모델을 이용하여, AT$_1$ 수용체의 길항제들 중 하나인 irbesartan이 심근이 재관휴 손상에 미치는 효과를 알아보고, 재관류 손상을 매개하는 한 각지 기전으로서 세포자멸의 기여에 대하여 연구하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: Sprague-Dawley 백서에서 무작용 부형약(10% gum arabic: 1군, 개체수=14관) irbesartan(50mg/kg/day :II 군, 개체수=12)을 각각 3일 동안 24시간마다 경구로 투여하였다. 실험동물의 좌 관상 동맥을 45분간 결찰하였다가, 그 후 2시간 동안 재관류시킨 다음 심장을 적출 하였다. TTC(triphenyltetrazolium chloride) 염색법을 이용하여, 허혈 노출 부위에 대한 심근 경색 부위의 비율을 측정하였다. Agarose gel 전기영동상의 DNa 분절 양상과 TUNEL(TdT-mediated dUCP nick end labeling) 염색을 관찰하여 세포자멸이 일어난 정도를 평가하였다. 세포자멸을 조절하는데 관여하는 것으로 알려진 Bcl-2(B-cell lymphoma 2 gene), Bad 등의 단백과 ERK (extracellular signal-regulated kinase), p-38 등 신호전달체계에 작용하는 MAPKs(mitogen-activated protein kinases)의 발현을 측정하기 위하여 Western blot을 시행하였다. 결과: 허혈 노출부위에 대한 심근 경색부위의 비율은 II군(42$\pm$2.7%)이 I군( 64.1$\pm$4.65)에 비해 유의하게 작았다.(p< 0.05), Agarose gel 전기영동상의 DNA laddering 양상은 I군에서 보다 높게 발현되었다. Bad와 ERK2의 발현은 두 군간에 유의한 차이가 없었다. 결론: AT$_1$수용체 길항제인 irbesartan은 생체에서 심근의 재관류 손상을 줄이는 효과가 있었다. 이 효과는 적어도 부분적으로 나만 심근세포의 세포자멸이 감소한 것에 기인한 것으로 설명할 수 있으며, 이 항-세포 자멸 효과는 Bcl-2의 발현증가와 관련이 있는 것으로 추정되었다.
