ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the effect of celecoxib on chronic hypoxia and hypercapnic pulmonary hypertension.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group (A), hypoxic hypercapnic group (B), hypoxic hypercapnia+ celecoxib group (C). The content of TXB2 and 6-keto-PGF1alpha in plasma and lung were detected by the technique of radioimmunology.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>(1) Mean pulmonary arteria pressure(mPAP) was significantly higher in rats of B group than those of A group. mPAP was significantly higher in rats of C group than those of B group. Differences of mPAP were not significant in three groups. (2) The content of TXB2 in plasma and lung and the ratio of TXB2/6-keto-PGF1alpha were significantly higher in rats of B group than those of A group. The ratio of TXB2/6-keto-PGF1alpha was significantly higher and the content of 6-keto-PGF1alpha in plasma and lung was significantly lower in rats of C group than those of B group. (3) Light microscopy showed that WA/TA (vessel wall area/total area) and PAMT (the thickness of medial smooth cell layer) were significantly higher in rats of B group than those of A group. WA/TA and PAMT were significantly higher in rats of C group than those of B group. (4) Electron microscopy showed the thickening of vessel wall and the proliferation of collagen fiber in B group and augmentation of smooth muscle cell and abundance of myofilament in pulmonary arterioles in C group.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Celecoxib can aggravate hypoxic hypercapnia pulmonary hypertension and pulmonary vessel remodeling by increasing the ratio of TXA2/PGI2.</p>
