Adiponectin Attenuates Angiotensin II-Induced Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Remodeling through Nitric Oxide and the RhoA/ROCK Pathway
INTRODUCTION Adiponectin (APN), an adipocytokine, exerts protective effects on cardiac remodeling, while angiotensin II (Ang II) induces hypertension and vascular remodeling. The potential protective role of APN on the vasculature during hypertension has not been fully elucidated yet. Here, we evaluate the molecular mechanisms of the protective role of APN in the physiological response of the v...
متن کاملSmooth Muscle–Selective Inhibition of Nuclear Factor‐κB Attenuates Smooth Muscle Phenotypic Switching and Neointima Formation Following Vascular Injury
BACKGROUND Vascular proliferative diseases such as atherosclerosis are inflammatory disorders involving multiple cell types including macrophages, lymphocytes, endothelial cells, and smooth muscle cells (SMCs). Although activation of the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) pathway in vessels has been shown to be critical for the progression of vascular diseases, the cell-autonomous role of NF-κB within S...
متن کاملMicroRNA-133 controls vascular smooth muscle cell phenotypic switch in vitro and vascular remodeling in vivo.
RATIONALE MicroRNA (miR)-1 and -133 play a crucial role in skeletal and cardiac muscle biology and pathophysiology. However, their expression and regulation in vascular cell physiology and disease is currently unknown. OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to evaluate the role, if any, of miR-1 and miR-133 in vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) phenotypic switch in vitro and in vivo. ME...
متن کاملAngiotensin II-mediated vascular smooth muscle cell growth signaling.
The mechanism by which Ang II stimulates the growth of vascular smooth muscle cells was investigated by measuring the phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases ERK 1 and ERK 2. Ca2+ ionophore was found to have effects practically analogous to Ang II. We found that the signaling pathway involves the activation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) kinase, activation of the adapto...
متن کاملMicroRNA133a: a new variable in vascular smooth muscle cell phenotypic switching.
The human genome is replete with digital information, only 1.2% of which comprises protein-coding sequence. The nonprotein-coding sequence encompasses 1 million regulatory elements controlling gene expression and codes for such genomic processes as recombination, replication, splicing, transposition, and structural integration of the genome with the surrounding nucleoskeleton. Throughout such p...
