| Research Abstract |
We established the primary culture of the endothelial cells from rabbits. We examined the role of ion channels in the cytoprotective effects. We applied amphotericin B on the endothelial cells which caused cell damage by the enhancement of the membrane permeability and tested different ionic conditions and ion channel blockers. We found that Cl- channel blockers, NPPB and DIDS, inhibited endothelial cell damage caused by amphotericin B. We also found that Cl- replacement by other organic anions suppressed cell-damage by amphotericin B. Cellular damage caused by hydrogen peroxide was also inhibited by Cl- channel blockers or Cl- free conditions. These results suggest that Cl- influx via Cl- channels might cause the endothelial cell damage during the formation of atherosclerosis. To access this question, we applied high NaC1 diet to the atherosclerosis model rabbit (KHC rabbit) for 6 months to check the formation of atherosclerosis. Surprisingly we found. that the formation of atherosclerosis was suppressed by the high NaC1 diet. We are investigating the mechanisms of this effect.
