Notch ligand delta-like 4 blockade attenuates atherosclerosis and metabolic disorders.
Atherosclerosis and insulin resistance are major components of the cardiometabolic syndrome, a global health threat associated with a systemic inflammatory state. Notch signaling regulates tissue development and participates in innate and adaptive immunity in adults. The role of Notch signaling in cardiometabolic inflammation, however, remains obscure. We noted that a high-fat, high-cholesterol...
متن کاملDelta-Like Ligand 4-Notch Signaling in Macrophage Activation.
The Notch signaling pathway regulates the development of various cell types and organs, and also contributes to disease mechanisms in adults. Accumulating evidence suggests its role in cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Notch signaling components also control the phenotype of immune cells. Delta-like ligand 4 (Dll4) of the Notch pathway promotes proinflammatory activation of macrophages in ...
متن کاملExpanding role of delta-like 4 mediated notch signaling in cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.
Cardiometabolic disease, a global health threat, has been linked to chronic inflammation, in which activated macrophages play a key role. Macrophages are highly heterogeneous hematopoietic cells found in nearly every tissue in the body. Various stimuli recruit monocytes into the cardiovascular system and metabolic organs, where they differentiate to macrophages, and activate these pro-inflammat...
متن کاملMyeloid DLL4 Does Not Contribute to the Pathogenesis of Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis in Ldlr-/- Mice
Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is characterized by liver steatosis and inflammation. Currently, the underlying mechanisms leading to hepatic inflammation are not fully understood and consequently, therapeutic options are poor. Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and atherosclerosis share the same etiology whereby macrophages play a key role in disease progression. Macrophage function can...
متن کاملNew pathways and mechanisms regulating and responding to Delta-like ligand 4-Notch signalling in tumour angiogenesis.
Notch signalling is a key pathway controlling angiogenesis in normal tissues and tumours. This has become a major focus of development of anticancer therapy, but to develop this appropriately, we need further understanding of the mechanisms of regulation of Dll4 (Delta-like ligand 4), a key endothelial Notch ligand. Dll4 and VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) cross-talk, with VEGF up-reg...
