Intimal smooth muscle cells: the context-dependent origin.
The sixth-century BC Chinese military general Sun Tzu underscored the dangers of overconfidence in strategy. A similar view has been shared by other thinkers and applied further to various contexts other than the military. A major goal of the medical sciences is to develop effective, wellrefined therapies. Accomplishing this task requires a comprehensive understanding of the biology of each com...
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 کاملLigustilide inhibits vascular smooth muscle cells proliferation.
Proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are believed to develop atherosclerosis and venous bypass graft disease. Ligustilide is widely used to treat some pathological settings such as atherosclerosis and hypertension. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of ligustilide on VSMCs proliferation. The results show that ligustilide significantly inhibited VSMCs ...
متن کاملThe role of autophagy in advanced glycation end product-induced proliferation and migration in rat vascular smooth muscle cells
Objective(s): To investigate the role of autophagy in advanced glycation end products (AGEs)-induced proliferation and migration in rat vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs).Materials and Methods: After culture, VSMCs were treated with 0, 1, 10, and 100 μg/ml concentrations of AGEs. Autophagy specific protein light chain 3 (LC3)-I/II was determined by western blotting, autophagosomes were observ...
متن کاملL-arginine inhibits smooth muscle cell proliferation of vein graft intimal thickness in hypercholesterolemic rabbits.
OBJECTIVE The effect of the chronic administration of L-arginine on intimal thickness and the kinetics of smooth muscle cell proliferation in autovein grafts in hypercholesterolemic rabbits were examined. METHODS Male rabbits were fed a 1% cholesterol diet (control group) and a 1% cholesterol diet supplemented by 2.25% L-arginine HCl in drinking water (arginine group). Each group underwent re...
