简介:ObjectivesToinvestigatetheeffectsoftestosteroneenanthate(TE)onserumlipidsandlipoproteinsmetabolismandtheexpressionofandrogenreceptor(AR),estrogenreceptorbeta(ER-β)andplateletderivedgrowthfactorbeta(PDGFR-β)inaorticvascularsmoothmuscletissues(VSMTs).MethodsFortyagedmaleratswererandomlydividedinto4groups,groupA(placebogroup),groupB(2.5mg/kgintramuscularinjectionofTEonceaweek),groupC(5.0mg/kgintramuscularinjectionofTEonceaweek),groupD(10.0mg,/kgintramuscularinjectionofTEonceaweek).Allanimalswerefedfreelyduring16-weektreatmentperiods.TheexpressionofAR,ER-βandPDGFR-βwerestudiedbyWesternbolt.ResultsAverageserumLDL-CwasloweringroupDthanthatingroupA(p<0.01).Comparedwiththeothergroups,averageserumTCwasalsoloweringroupD(p<0.05).ARexpressioninaorticvascularsmoothmuscletissuescouldberegulatedbyTE:99.50±21.74,125.38±28.68and101.98±15.42forTEconcentrationsat2.5mg/kg,5.0mg/kgand10.0mg/kg,respectively,theexpressionofER-βcouldberegulatedbyTE:92.34±18.68,47.72±18.12,82.13±23.50,andtheexpressionofPDGFR-βcouldberegulatedaswellbyTE:219.70±45.59,50.16±9.72,125.36±15.74(DataforAR,ER-βandPDGFR-βproteinbandintensitywereexpressedwithx±s,withcontrolgrouptakenas100).ConclusionsThisstudyindicatesthatandrogenshavesignificanteffectsonserumlipidsandlipoproteinmetabolism.Testosteroneenanthateat5.0mg/kgcanstimulatetheexpressionofAR,butinhibitetheexpressionofPDGFR.Testosteroneenanthateattheconcentrationsof5.0mg/kgand10.0mg/kgcaninhibitetheexpressionofER-β.
