Role for p27 in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Migration
Background—Rapamycin is a potent inhibitor of smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferation and migration. Rapamycinmediated inhibition of SMC proliferation is associated with upregulation of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27. Previously, we showed that mixed embryonic fibroblasts obtained from p27(2/2) mice were relatively rapamycin-resistant, suggesting that p27 plays an integral role in mod...
متن کاملA novel role for the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27(Kip1) in angiotensin II-stimulated vascular smooth muscle cell hypertrophy.
Angiotensin II (Ang II) has been shown to stimulate either hypertrophy or hyperplasia. We postulated that the differential response of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) to Ang II is mediated by the cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk) inhibitor p27(Kip1), which is abundant in quiescent cells and drops after serum stimulation. Ang II treatment (100 nM) of quiescent VSMCs led to upregulation of the c...
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 کاملp27(Kip1) is important in modulating pulmonary artery smooth muscle cell proliferation.
Vascular remodeling due to pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cell (PASMC) proliferation is central to the development of pulmonary hypertension. Cell proliferation requires the coordinated interaction of cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases (cdk) to drive cells through the cell cycle. Cdk inhibitors can bind cyclin-cdk complexes and cause G(1) arrest. To determine the importance of the cdk inhib...
متن کاملRapamycin inhibits vascular smooth muscle cell migration.
Abnormal vascular smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferation and migration contribute to the development of restenosis after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty and accelerated arteriopathy after cardiac transplantation. Previously, we reported that the macrolide antibiotic rapamycin, but not the related compound FK506, inhibits both human and rat aortic SMC proliferation in vitro by inh...
