Tanshinone 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 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 کاملOn Antheridial Metabolism in the Fern Species Onoclea sensibilis L.
Dopp (1) demonstrated that the extract from mature prothalli of the fern species Ptcridiwtn1 aquiilinunil (L.) Kuhln hastened the onset of antheridium formation in young prothalli of this species by several days and in the prothalli of Dryopteris filixwwlas (L). Schott by several weeks. Dopp's conclusion that the prothalli of P. aquilinit elaborate a specific antheridium-inducing factor was con...
متن کاملMutation Load in Natural Populations of the Sensitive Fern Onoclea Sensibilis Exposed to Soil Mutagens
This study examined mutations expressed in haploid fern gametophytes derived from spores collected in the wild in order to assay for the presence of mutagenic compounds in natural environments. Gametophytes of the fern Onoclea sensibilis were cultured from spores collected in 14 natural populations around the region of Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Most of the populations grew in soils exposed to s...
متن کاملVinpocetine suppresses pathological vascular remodeling by inhibiting vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation and migration.
Abnormal vascular smooth muscle cell (SMC) activation is associated with various vascular disorders such as atherosclerosis, in-stent restenosis, vein graft disease, and transplantation-associated vasculopathy. Vinpocetine, a derivative of the alkaloid vincamine, has long been used as a cerebral blood flow enhancer for treating cognitive impairment. However, its role in pathological vascular re...
