The effect of adrenomedullin and proadrenomedullin N- terminal 20 peptide on angiotensin II induced vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation
Objective(s): The study aimed to investigate the effects of adrenomedullin (ADM) and proadrenomedullin N- terminal 20 peptide (PAMP) on angiotensin II (AngII)-stimulated proliferation in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Materials and Methods: Thoracic aorta was obtained from Wistar rats and VSMCs were isolated from aorta tissues and then cultured. In vitro cultured VSMCs were stimulated w...
متن کاملSIRT1 inhibits angiotensin II-induced vascular smooth muscle cell hypertrophy.
Angiotensin II (Ang II) stimulates vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) hypertrophy as a critical event in the development of vascular diseases such as atherosclerosis. Sirtuin (SIRT) 1, a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide dependent deacetylase, has been demonstrated to exert protective effects in atherosclerosis by promoting endothelium-dependent vascular relaxation and reducing macrophage foam ...
متن کاملAngiotensin II-Induced Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Hypertrophy
The 12-lipoxygenase pathway is a key mediator of angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced effects in the adrenal cortex. We also recently demonstrated that Ang II increases 12and 15-lipoxygenase product levels in vascular smooth muscle cells. However, the relation between lipoxygenase activation and Ang II-induced vascular smooth muscle cell hypertrophy is not known. We studied the effects of Ang II and...
متن کاملRole of Vascular Smooth Muscle PPARγ in Regulating AT1 Receptor Signaling and Angiotensin II-Dependent Hypertension
Peroxisome proliferator activated receptor γ (PPARγ) has been reported to play a protective role in the vasculature; however, the underlying mechanisms involved are not entirely known. We previously showed that vascular smooth muscle-specific overexpression of a dominant negative human PPARγ mutation in mice (S-P467L) leads to enhanced myogenic tone and increased angiotensin-II-dependent vasoco...
متن کاملInvolvement of vascular peroxidase 1 in angiotensin II-induced vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation.
AIMS Vascular peroxidase 1 (VPO1) is a newly identified haem-containing peroxidase that catalyses the oxidation of a variety of substrates by hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)). Considering the well-defined effects of H(2)O(2) on the vascular remodelling during hypertension, and that VPO1 can utilize H(2)O(2) generated from co-expressed NADPH oxidases to catalyse peroxidative reactions, the aims of t...
