Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Purpose of his study clarify the of calcification process in implanted arterial artificial-graft. Artificial arterial graft was implanted to abdominal aorta in 49 mice, and we explanted the implanted grafts from 39 mice at 2 months after implantation. By X-ray analysis, 14 explanted grafts occurred calcification. We divided 2 groups; Group C in 14 grafts with calcification, and Group N is 25 grafts without calcification. By microarray analysis with both groups, we picked up genes which was more than 2 fold in Fold Change analysis. And, by real time PCR was done in these picked up 22 genes, we think 4 genes (collagen X、osx、win3a、ankrd2) were associated with calcification process. We are doing more analysis to clarify the relation of these 4 genes for calcification process after graft-implanting.
