Abstract


Cone cadres malformations are common complex congenital heart disease (CHD ) , is one of the main cause of death in children . The proximal outflow tract plays a vital role in the development of the cone cadres . Proximal outflow tract septum is the level of semilunar valve and flap outflow tract separated , this interval was initially formed by the crest of the endocardial mesenchymal form of a pad tissue . In the the heart development process , the proximal outflow tract septum stroma myocardial ingredients , this process is called \The process of myocardialization is an important event in the development process of the outflow tract , myocardialization disorder can lead to structural and functional abnormalities of the outflow tract , therefore clarify the outflow tract septum myocardial formation process will help to further reveal the outflow tract abnormalities in the pathogenesis . Participate in or influence myocardial process possible cellular and molecular mechanisms have been proposed , in which the cardiac neural crest cells , apoptosis and transforming growth factor (transforming growth factor, TGF) β2 gradually attracted people's attention . It also found that in recent years connexin 43 ( Conecxin , Cx ) is closely related with the development of the embryonic heart cone cadres . Cx43 deletion and overexpression model showed right ventricular outflow tract abnormalities and obstruction, and cardiac neural crest cells may be involved in its pathogenesis . Therefore , the subject of the use of the Cx43 gene knock in addition to ( knockout , KO ) mouse model to study the role of Cx43 in myocardial process and its possible mechanism ; to further reveal cone ' of Cx43KO mice deformity pathogenesis . The purpose of the first part of normal mouse cardiac outflow tract septum myocardial process studies to explore the heart proximal outflow septum and temporal variations of the myocardial process , as well as cardiac neural crest cells , apoptosis in this process possible role . Materials and Methods adult 2 months of age the C57/BL6 mice mating , the choice of gestational age ( embryonic day , E ) 11.5 days ( day , d ) day after birth in mice for the study . By immunohistochemical method for the determination of striated muscle actin alpha - SCA ( of alpha - Sarcomeric Actin ) , AP -2a ( Activator protein - 2a ) , a marker of neural crest cells , apoptosis - related molecules Active caspase - 3 expression ; using TUNEL ( terminal deoxylnucleotidyl transferase mediated-dUTP nick end labeling) in situ detection of cell apoptosis extent .
