Abstract
1. In the present study, endothelial cells (EC) growth and fibrinolytic activity of WKY/Izm and SHRSP/Izm were investigated in vitro. 2. EC were isolated from the thoracic aortas of WKY and SHRSP at the age of 8-9 weeks. Proliferative activities of EC were analysed with doubling time and DNA synthesis. Fibrinolytic activity was determined by tissue type plasminogen activator (tPA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) activities in cultured medium. 3. SHRSP-EC growth rate was significantly greater than WKY-EC growth rate in doubling time. In the assay for DNA synthesis, 5-bromo-2'-deoxy uridine incorporation rate in SHRSP-EC was significantly increased compared with that in WKY-EC. 4. The tPA activity in cultured medium of WKY-EC was 2-fold greater than that of SHRSP-EC, while PAI-1 activities were nearly equal in them. 5. These physiological distinctions of EC of SHRSP/Izm from that of WKY/Izm with close genetic background could be contributory genetic factors to hypertension-related vascular diseases in SHRSP.
