The effect of folic acid on the homocysteine metabolism in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).
Mild hyperhomocysteinaemia is associated with increased risk for vascular disease. We studied homocysteine export from human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) by measuring total homocysteine (tHcy) concentrations in the culture medium. Under standard culture conditions tHcy concentrations in the HUVEC culture medium increased by constant amounts after 24, 48 and 72 h [mean = 2.5 (SD +/-...
متن کاملCytoprotective and antioxidant effects of Echium amoenum anthocyanin-rich extract in human endothelial cells (HUVECs)
Objective: Echium amoenum Fisch. & C.A. Mey. is used for the treatment of various diseases in traditional medicine. This plant is a major source of anthocyanins with beneficial cardiovascular properties such as anti-atherosclerotic and antihypertensive effects. In the present study, the protective and antioxidant effects of anthocyanin-rich E. amoenum extract were evaluated on human vascular en...
متن کاملCytoprotective Effects and Mechanisms of Δ-17 Fatty Acid Desaturase in Injured Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVECs)
BACKGROUND The beneficial effect of Δ-17 FAD is poorly understood. The aim of this study was to investigate the protective mechanism of fatty acids against atherosclerotic (AS) damage induced by oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), and to identify the molecular mechanisms involved. MATERIAL AND METHODS The ox-LDL was used to induce lipoto...
متن کاملShear stress effect on endothelial nitric oxide synthase in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells
Background: Low shear stress caused by disturbed or turbulent flow at arterial branch points is known to associate with atherosclerosis. However, shear stress at the venous valve location and its association with deep vein thrombosis are less understood due to the complex and poorly understood bi-directional flow in the valve pocket region. We investigated how venous endothelial cells respond t...
متن کاملAnti-angiogenic Effects of Metformin, an AMPK Activator, on Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells and on Granulation Tissue in Rat
Objective(s)Metformin is well known for activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). AMPK activation inhibits mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) as a key signaling process in cell proliferation. Recent epidemiological studies demonstrate that metformin lowers the risk for several types of cancer in diabetic patients. Concerning the critical role of angiogenesis in the incidence and prog...
