Endothelial cells, endoplasmic reticulum stress and oxysterols
Oxysterols are bioactive lipids that act as regulators of lipid metabolism, inflammation, cell viability and are involved in several diseases, including atherosclerosis. Mounting evidence linked the atherosclerosis to endothelium dysfunction; in fact, the endothelium regulates the vascular system with roles in processes such as hemostasis, cell cholesterol, hormone trafficking, signal transduct...
متن کاملCyclosporine triggers endoplasmic reticulum stress in endothelial cells: a role for endothelial phenotypic changes and death.
Calcineurin inhibitors cyclosporine and tacrolimus are effective immunosuppressants, but both substances have the same intrinsic nephrotoxic potential that adversely affects allograft survival in renal transplant patients and causes end-stage renal disease in other solid organ or bone marrow transplant recipients. Endothelial cells are the first biological interface between drugs and the kidney...
متن کاملAsymmetric dimethylarginine downregulates sarco/endoplasmic reticulum calcium-ATPase 3 and induces endoplasmic reticulum stress in human umbilical vein endothelial cells
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease. Endothelial cell injury and apoptosis may promote atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. The present study investigated the potential mechanisms of asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA)‑induced apoptosis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). It was demonstrated that ADMA decreased B...
متن کاملEndoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Microvascular Endothelial Dysfunction in Diabetes
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia, due to deficiency in insulin or insulin resistance, and represents a major cause of morbidity and mortality in contemporary societies [1,2]. According to the world health organization (WHO), more than 285 million people worldwide suffered from diabetes of which 4 million died in 2010. The prevalence is expected to ...
متن کاملPreconditioning with Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Ameliorates Endothelial Cell Inflammation
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) stress, caused by disturbance in ER homeostasis, has been implicated in several pathological conditions such as ischemic injury, neurodegenerative disorders, metabolic diseases and more recently in inflammatory conditions. Our present study aims at understanding the role of ER stress in endothelial cell (EC) inflammation, a critical event in the pathogenesis of acute ...
