Research Abstract |
OBJECTIVES: To examine the effects of the anti-angiogenic drug AGM1470 on smooth muscle cell (SMC) migration activity stimulated by endothelial cell (EC-derived mitogen. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Study 1 ; EC's were cultured under pulsatile flow using MCDB151 medium. From the supernatant of these EC dishes we devised two types of conditioned medium; anti-PDGF(+) containing 10 micrograms/ml anti-PDGF antibody, and anti-PDGF(-) containing no antibody. SMC's were cultured using both media. Study 2 ; EC's were cultured under the same conditions using both types of medium; MCDB151 medium containing 10 ng/ml AGM1470, and MCDB151 medium alone. After the AGM1470 concentration had been adjusted to 10 ng/ml, SMC's were cultured using each medium ; AGM-exposed EC and AGM-non-exposed EC. SMC colony spreading distances were measured as an index of mitogenic activity for 4 days. RESULTS: Study 1 ; the anti-PDGF(-) group showed an apparently greater spreading distance than the anti-PDGF(+) group. Study 2 ; the AGM-non-exposed EC group showed a significantly greater spreading distance than the AGM-exposed EC group. However, MTT assay revealed no differences in proliferation between the two groups. CONCLUSION: AGM1470 suppresses the EC production of this PDGF-like mitogen as well as SMC migration activity.
