| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Specific expression of Hsp72 (HspA1B) in the near term ductus arteriosus (DA) was confirmed in both rabbit and rat. Expression of Hsp72 and apoptotic cells in newborn rabbit DA media was separated near adventitia and near lumen respectively. Identical expression pattern of HspA1B and c-Fos mRNA in fetal and newborn DA, the adjacent aorta (Ao) and pulmonary artery (PA) was detected. c-FOS plays a regulatory role in growth, differentiation and apoptosis. c-FOS proteins do not dimerize with each other and only bind to DNA as AP-1 transcription factor when bound with c-JUN. However, c-Jun was expressed relatively lower in the DA than the Ao and PA, suggesting existence of different binding partners. Expression of several stress response gene mRNAs related c-Fos was determined in the mature fetal DA with oxygen stimuli.
