Abstrakt:	Objective: To investigate the effect of recombinant adenovirus-mediated hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (Ad-HIF-1alpha) at different doses on angiogenesis in a rabbit model of hind limb ischemia. Methods: Left hind limb ischemia was induced in 45 Zealand white rabbits by ligation of the left femoral artery. The rabbits were randomly divided into 5 groups (n=9) to receive intramuscular injections of 0.5 ml saline, 2x10(10) PFU empty vector (Ad-null), or different doses of Ad-HIF-1alpha (2x10(9), 2x10(10) or 2x10(11) PFU) immediately after the operation. On the 7th day after the operation, real-time PCR was used to detect the expression of HIF-1alpha mRNA in the skeletal muscles. Immediately and on the 14th and 28th days after the operation, contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEU) was used to observe the blood perfusion of the hind limb. On the 28th day postoperatively, immunohistochemistry for CD31 was performed to evaluate the microvascular density (MVD). Results: Real-time PCR showed that Ad-HIF-1alpha significantly increased the expression of HIF-1alpha mRNA (P<0.01) in a dose-dependent manner as compared with that in the saline and Ad-null groups (P<0.01). CEU revealed greater blood perfusion in the hind limb of rabbits in association with increased dose of Ad-HIF-1alpha (P<0.05 or P<0.01); similar changes in the MVD was observed following Ad-HIF-1alpha injections as shown by immunohistochemistry (P<0.05 or P<0.01). No significant differences were found either in the blood perfusion or MVD between saline and Ad-null groups (P>0.05). Conclusion: Ad-HIF-1alpha can dose-dependently promote the angiogenesis in the ischemic limb of rabbits.
