Objective:To investigate the effect of Guben Huatan Tongmai Recipe(GHTR) on the proliferation
cell cycle and eyclin D1 activity of vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMCs) in rat in order to find out the mechanism of its action.Methods:In this study
cell culture technique was used in vitro.VSMCs stimulated by platelet derived growth factor BB(PDGF-BB) were treated by GHTR in different concentration for a certain period
then the inhibitory ratio of cell proliferation was measured by MTT
cell cycle distribution and cyclin D1 activity of the cells were observed by Flow-Cytometry respectively.Results:GHTR could obviously inhibit the proliferation of VSMCs stimulated by PDGF-BB
and it could also decrease S phase cells
increase G0/G1 phase cells and down-regulate cyclin D1 activity of VSMCs in concentration-dependent fashion
and the results were significant compared with the normal serum plus PDGF-BB-treated.Conclusion:GHTR could obviously inhibit the proliferation of VSMCs and may prevent atherosclerosis
which mechanism may be realized by regulating cyclin D1 activity of VSMC.
