Bindarit Inhibits Human Coronary Artery Smooth Muscle Cell Proliferation, Migration and Phenotypic Switching
Bindarit, a selective inhibitor of monocyte chemotactic proteins (MCPs) synthesis, reduces neointimal formation in animal models of vascular injury and recently has been shown to inhibit in-stent late loss in a placebo-controlled phase II clinical trial. However, the mechanisms underlying the efficacy of bindarit in controlling neointimal formation/restenosis have not been fully elucidated. The...
متن کاملAngiostatin binds to smooth muscle cells in the coronary artery and inhibits smooth muscle cell proliferation and migration In vitro.
Angiostatin is an inhibitor of angiogenesis that is known to reduce endothelial cell proliferation and consequently prevent the progression of tumor metastases. However, the modest effect of angiostatin on endothelial cell proliferation raises the possibility that angiostatin might exert its effects on other cells. To determine the cellular distribution of angiostatin binding in tissues with ne...
متن کاملTanshinone IIA inhibits AGEs-induced proliferation and migration of cultured vascular smooth muscle cells by suppressing ERK1/2 MAPK signaling
Objective(s): Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) play a key role in the pathogenesis of diabetic vascular disease. Our current study sought to explore the effects of tanshinone IIA on the proliferation and migration of VSMCs induced by advanced glycation end products (AGEs). Materials and Methods: In this study, we examined the effects of tanshinone IIA by cell proliferation assay and cell mi...
متن کاملSmooth Muscle-Alpha Actin Inhibits Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Proliferation and Migration by Inhibiting Rac1 Activity
Smooth muscle alpha-actin (SMA) is a marker for the contractile, non-proliferative phenotype of adult smooth muscle cells (SMCs). Upon arterial injury, expression of SMA and other structural proteins decreases and SMCs acquire a pro-migratory and proliferative phenotype. To what extent SMA regulates migration and proliferation of SMCs is unclear and putative signaling pathways involved remain t...
متن کاملDecorin Mimic Inhibits Vascular Smooth Muscle Proliferation and Migration
Over the past 10 years, the number of percutaneous coronary intervention procedures performed in the United States increased by 33%; however, restenosis, which inhibits complete functional recovery of the vessel wall, complicates this procedure. A wide range of anti-restenotic therapeutics have been developed, although many elicit non-specific effects that compromise vessel healing. Drawing ins...
