摘要

Copper stimulation of angiogenesis at the organ system level is vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) dependent, but copper stimulation of vascular endothelial cell proliferation in cultures is VEGF independent. The present study was undertaken to use isolated rat aortic rings to understand the seemly controversial observations between in vivo and in vitro studies. The thoracic aorta was isolated from Sprague Dawley rats (8-10 weeks) and sectioned into 1.0-mm thick vascular rings for culturing. Copper sulfide at a final concentration of 5, 25, 50 or 100 micro M was added to the cultures and maintained for 8 days. A copper chelator, tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA) at a final concentration of 25 micro M, was added to some cultures to block the effect of copper. An anti-VEGF antibody was used to determine the role of VEGF in copper promotion of angiogenesis. The data obtained showed that copper at 5 micro M in cultures stimulated the vascular formation; an effect was blocked by TEPA. Copper at concentrations above 50 micro M lost the proangiogenesis effect. However, copper at 5 micro M did not enhance the production of VEGF, and concentrations above 50 micro M significantly increased VEGF production. On the other hand, the treatment with anti-VEGF antibody completely blocked the proangiogenesis effect of 5- micro M copper. This study thus demonstrates that VEGF is essential for angiogenesis but the proangiogenesis effect of copper does not act through enhanced production of VEGF.
