[Abstract]  

Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) have been cultured for decades to study the role of these cells in cardiovascular disorders. The most common source of VSMCs is the rat aorta. Here we show the adaptation of this method to isolate and culture mouse aortic VSMCs. The advantage of this method is that there are many more transgenic mouse lines available compared to rats. The protocol consists of the isolation of the aorta, the liberation of vascular cells by the action of collagenase, culturing of VSCMs, and analyzing filamentous actin and alpha smooth muscle actin by fluorescence microscopy. VSCMs can be further used to study mechanisms underlying cardiovascular diseases.

[摘要]  [摘要]血管平滑肌细胞(VSMC)已培养了数十年,以研究这些细胞在心血管疾病中的作用。VSMC的最常见来源是大鼠主动脉。在这里,我们展示了此方法对分离和培养小鼠主动脉VSMC的适应性。这种方法的优点是,与大鼠相比,有更多的转基因小鼠系可用。该方案包括主动脉的分离,通过胶原酶的作用释放血管细胞,培养VSCM ,通过荧光显微镜分析丝状肌动蛋白和α平滑肌肌动蛋白。VSCM可进一步用于研究心血管疾病的潜在机制。

[背景]血管壁细胞(壁细胞)在多种疾病的调节中起着至关重要的作用,从高血压(Rodríguez-Vita等,2005a)和动脉粥样硬化(Rodríguez-Vita等,2008)到癌症( Wong等人,2020年),甚至最近还有COVID-19 (He等人,2020年)。毛细血管大部分被周细胞覆盖,而较大的血管在血管壁中含有VSCM。壁细胞通过血管收缩和血管舒张来控制血流。这样,吨哎是在几种药物靶,其降低血压(圣保罗等人,2020) ...
