Acetylated low-density lipoprotein stimulates human vascular smooth muscle cell calcification by promoting osteoblastic differentiation and inhibiting phagocytosis.
BACKGROUND Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) in atherosclerotic lesions display an osteogenic phenotype, and calcification commonly occurs in association with lipid. We therefore tested the hypothesis that lipid components in atherosclerotic lesions influenced VSMC phenotype and calcification using an in vitro model of calcification. METHODS AND RESULTS In situ hybridization of human ather...
متن کاملDexamethasone enhances In vitro vascular calcification by promoting osteoblastic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells.
Vascular calcification is often associated with atherosclerotic lesions. Moreover, the process of atherosclerotic calcification has several features similar to the mineralization of skeletal tissue. Therefore, we hypothesized that vascular smooth muscle cells might acquire osteoblastic characteristics during the development of atherosclerotic lesions. In the present study, we investigated the e...
متن کاملVinpocetine Attenuates the Osteoblastic Differentiation of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells
Vascular calcification is an active process of osteoblastic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells; however, its definite mechanism remains unknown. Vinpocetine, a derivative of the alkaloid vincamine, has been demonstrated to inhibit the high glucose-induced proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells; however, it remains unknown whether vinpocetine can affect the osteoblastic diffe...
متن کاملApelin Attenuates the Osteoblastic Differentiation of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells
Vascular calcification, which results from a process osteoblastic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), is a major risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Apelin is a recently discovered peptide that is the endogenous ligand for the orphan G-protein-coupled receptor, APJ. Several studies have identified the protective effects of apelin on the cardiovascular sy...
متن کاملPioglitazone attenuates valvular calcification induced by hypercholesterolemia.
OBJECTIVE Development of calcific aortic valve stenosis involves multiple signaling pathways, which may be modulated by peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ). This study tested the hypothesis that pioglitazone (Pio), a ligand for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ, inhibits calcification of the aortic valve in hypercholesteremic mice. METHODS AND RESULTS Low density lipoprot...
