Change in the number of CD117+ stem cells, cytogenetic and cytokinetic parameters under the use of candesartan, candesartan cilexetil and resveratrol in vitro

Abstract

Due to the increase in cardiovascular disease, it is urgent to research new effective and safe drugs and their combinations. Candesartan cilexetil, an angiotensin II receptor antagonist, is a precursor to the active form of candesartan. However, these antiischemic drugs have a cytotoxic effect, affecting the antioxidant system. Therefore, to prevent the cytotoxic effect is the need to use antioxidants. To study the effect of candesartan cilexetil, candesartan and resveratrol antioxidant in various doses and combinations on CD117+ stem cell mobilization, on the number of apoptotic and micronucleated cells and cell cycle parameters in vitro. Bone marrow cells isolated from C57Bl / 6 mice were selected for experiments. After incubation for 2 days with the means in different concentrations and combinations, the biological characteristics of the stem cells were determined. Flow cytometry was used to analyze the number of CD117 + stem cells, the ratio of apoptotic cells, cells with micronuclei and cell cycle parameters when using candesartan cilexetil, candesartan, and resveratrol in vitro. It was found that using candesartan cilexetil with resveratrol and candesartan with resveratrol promotes the formation of CD117 + stem cells from 1.2 times to almost 2 times compared with controls and 1.5 and 2.5 compared with cytostatics. Candesartan cilexetil and candesartan were cytotoxic, while resveratrol reduced the adverse effects of the substances in combination. Combination of candesartan cilexetil with resveratrol; Candesartan with resveratrol significantly increased CD117+ stem cell count and was not cytotoxic.
