Objective: To research the effects of fufangdenshen tablets on atherosclerotic plasma protein using proteomic technique and further explore its potential molecular mechanism to cure atherosclerosis.
Method: The plasma of normal, atherosclerosis and cured group were collected, and the albumin in plasma was removed. Proteomic protocol involved of 2-DE, image analysis and spectrometry detection was used to detect regulated plasma protein by fufangdenshen tablets.
Result: 3 decreased expressed and 6 higher protein in atherosclerotic plasma could be recovered by fufangdenshen tablets. The levels of fibrinogen, Granzyme C and immunoglobulin were decreased by fufangdenshen tablets.
Conclusion: The levels of fibrinogen, Granzyme C in atherosclerotic plasma could be decreased by fufangdenshen tablets. The effects of fufangdenshen tablets on atherosclerosis included that: inhibition of adhesion of monocyte, inhibition of proliferation and migration of VSMC, and weakening of inflammation.
