PG - 145-8 AB - OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1) of aorta wall in acute phase of hypertension in rats with 2 kidney and 1 clip(2K1C). METHOD: The MCP-1 mRNA on aorta wall was detected by in situ hybridization and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR). RESULTS: No MCP-1 was expressed in normal rat, but it was expressed on the aorta wall of rats in 1 week after 2K1C hypertensive model was formed. The expression of MCP-1 increased with the development of hypertension. CONCLUSION: The expression of MCP-1 on aorta wall of 2K1C hypertensive rats increases in the early stage of hypertension, which may play an important role in accelerating atherosclerosis.
