The PPH model was induced by 12% oxygen for 14 days. In the beginning, intraperitoneal injection of CaSR agonist (GdCl3) and CaSR inhibitor (NPS2390) were performed to mice in PPH+ agonist group and PPH+ inhibitor group respectively daily. After 14 days of modeling, pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) of all four groups were cultured in vitro. Changes of Ca2+ fluorescence intensity in PASMCs of the four groups were detected by laser confocal microscope continuously. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Result \u0000The ratio of pulmonary small vascular wall thickness to the vascular diameter and right ventricle/left ventricular thickness in PPH group were greater than those in the control group [(21.1%±1.8%) vs.(27.0%±0.9%), (0.62±0.22) vs.(0.83±0.45)], the differences were statistically significant (P 0.05). \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Conclusion \u0000CaSR may be involved in the occurrence and development of hypoxic-induced PPH in neonatal mice by affecting the intracellular Ca2+ concentration in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Key words: \u0000Hypertension pulmonary; Anoxia; Receptors, calcium-sensing; Myocytes, smooth muscle; Mice","PeriodicalId":351524,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of Neonatology","volume":"7 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121012233","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
