indicator Fura-2/AM. It was showed that endothelin and PDGF significantly induced a migration of vascular smooth muscle cells in a dosedependent manner, which was dose-dependently inhibited by pretreatment with 10-10mol/L sodium ferulate . The peak inhibition rate of migration induced by endothelin and PDGF were 85.04% and 81.92% (P 0.01) respectively. endothelin and PDGF provoked the rise of [Ca ]i in vascular smooth muscle cells, which was significantly suppressed by 10mol/L sodium ferulate (P 0.01). It is concluded that migration and rise of [Ca ]i induced by endothelin and PDGF in vascular smooth muscle cells from SHR may be suppressed by ferulate.
