Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Production is Regulated by Gene Polymorphisms
Background: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has a key role in angiogene-sis and in transplantation. The level of VEGF is related to the differences in the DNA sequence of its promoter region. Objectives: In this study, the association between the combination of VEGF –1154 G and –2578 C alleles and VEGF production by LPS-stimulated PBMCs was investigated. In addition; the relationship ...
متن کاملEndothelin 1 transcription is controlled by nuclear factor-kappaB in AGE-stimulated cultured endothelial cells.
Incubation of bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAECs) with erythrocytes from patients with type 2 diabetes induced an increase in endothelin 1 (ET-1) production. The effect of erythrocytes on ET-1 synthesis was dependent on glycemic control. ET-1 levels after incubation with erythrocytes derived from patients with HbA(1c) levels <6% were just half the levels observed after incubation with eryth...
متن کاملProstacyclin production by perturbed bovine aortic endothelial cells in culture.
This study reports that endotoxin (Escherichia coli serotype 026:B6) and 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate stimulate cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells to generate prostacyclin. The prostacyclin concentration of the culture medium was measured indirectly by radioimmunoassay for 6-keto-PGF1 alpha. The amount of prostacyclin generated depended on the concentration of endotoxin or phorbo...
متن کاملFibrinogen-induced endothelin-1 production from endothelial cells.
We previously demonstrated that fibrinogen (Fg) binding to the vascular endothelial intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) leads to microvascular constriction in vivo and in vitro. Although a role of endothelin-1 (ET-1) in this Fg-induced vasoconstriction was suggested, the mechanism of action was not clear. In the current study, we tested the hypothesis that Fg-induced vasoconstriction res...
متن کاملOncostatin M regulates endothelin-1 production in human endothelial cells.
The effect of the macrophage- and T-lymphocyte-derived cytokine oncostatin M (OSM) on endothelin-1 (ET-1) production in cultured human umbilical cord vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) was studied. OSM (2.5-10 ng/ml) stimulated ET-1 production and the expression of preproendothelin-1 mRNA. The stimulatory effect of OSM was reversed by anti-interleukin (IL)-6 IgG (33 μg/ml). IL-6 (10 ng/ml) was show...
