Relationship between cell components in human coronary atherosclerosis plaque and stability of plaque
【Abstract】 AIM: To evaluate the relationship between the plaque stability and the cell components in human coronary atherosclerosis plaque and to investigate the interrelation of cell components. METHODS: One hundred and twentyfive cases of coronary cardiac diseases including acute myocardial infarction, unstable angina and stable angina, who died in recent 12 years and had full data, were selected. The coronary arteries of each case were transversely cut, embedded and stained with HE. After observing and analyzing the morphologic features, parts of the coronary artery segments were selected for immunohistochemical staining of 6 markers against αsmooth muscle actin (SMA), CD20, CD3, CD68, HLADR and mast cell tryptase. RESULTS: More macrophages, T lymphocytes and mast cells were observed infiltrated in unstable plaque and smooth muscle cells were more common in stable plaque. A significant negative correlation was found between the expression of SMA and CD68, CD3, tryptase. CONCLUSION: The decrease in the number of smooth muscle cells and the increase in the number of macrophages, T lymphocytes and mast cells may be the major pathologic mechanism responsible for plaque instability. The infiltration of macrophages, T lymphocytes and mast cells is closely related to the decrease of smooth muscle cells in plaque.

【摘要】 目的: 探讨人冠状动脉粥样硬化斑块内细胞成分与斑块稳定性之间的关系,以及各种细胞成分之间有无必然的联系. 方法: 选取解放军总医院近12年间具有完整资料的急性心肌梗死、不稳定心绞痛和稳定心绞痛尸体解剖病例共125例,对每一例的全部冠状动脉进行取材制片,观察分析形态学指标,并从中挑选一部分蜡块切片行免疫组化染色(包括: SMA, CD3, CD68,CD20, HLADR, mast cell tryptase). 结果: 免疫组化标记不稳定斑块组SMA的表达明显低于稳定斑块组,而CD68, CD3和mast cell tryptase的表达正好相反(P<0.05);SMA的表达与CD68, CD3和mast cell tryptase的表达呈明显负相关关系. 结论: 斑块内平滑肌细胞明显减少,巨噬细胞、T淋巴细胞和肥大细胞显著增高,可能是导致斑块不稳定的主要病理学机制;斑块内平滑肌细胞数量减少与巨噬细胞、T淋巴细胞和肥大细胞浸润密切相关.

0引言
冠状动脉粥样硬化斑块破裂并触发血栓形成是导致急性冠状动脉综合征的重要机制, 斑块是否破裂主要取决于斑块的稳定性,斑块自身的组织结构与斑块的稳定性关系非常密切[1,2]. 由于冠状动脉粥样硬化的动物模型复制不理想以及人体材料来源困难,国内采用人体材料对斑块中的各种细胞成分的数量及功能状态与斑块稳定性关系的研究很少[3],我们收集我院12年来125例冠心病尸检材料,应用免疫组化对斑块内各种细胞成分进行定性和定量研究, 探讨这些细胞与斑块稳定性的关系,以及各种细胞成分相互之间的作用机制.

1.1材料
选取我院199201/200412间临床诊断或(和)病理证实为稳定心绞痛、不稳定心绞痛和急性心肌梗死的尸体解剖病例共125例,其中稳定心绞痛组34例,不稳定心绞痛组22例,急性心肌梗死组69例. 标记抗体有鼠抗人αsmooth muscle actin (SMA), CD20, CD3, CD68, HLADR, mast cell tryptase (tryptase),均购自北京中山公司.
1.2方法
1.2.1取材及染色分离出所有病例之主要冠状动脉(右冠状动脉、左冠状动脉前降支和左旋支),经EDTA脱钙并取材,共取材3748块,其中稳定心绞痛组1095块,不稳定心绞痛组791块,急性心肌梗死组1862块. 常规脱水、包埋、切片并行HE染色,光镜观察区分稳定及不稳定斑块,并在每支有病变的分支挑选1个具有代表性的组织块,共143块(其中不稳定斑块89块)行免疫组织化学染色,采用北京中山公司提供的SP法,操作流程如我科常规免疫组织化学方法,CD68和tryptase两种抗体采用胰蛋白酶和微波联合处理的抗原修复法.
1.2.2图像分析参考文献[4]将斑块最易发生破裂的纤维帽肩部作为图像分析视野,采用MPIAS500病理图文分析系统对SMA标记的切片进行测量,光镜400倍下选取3个视野,测量 1 2 3 下一页
