Lysophosphatidic acid induction of tissue factor expression in aortic smooth muscle cells.
OBJECTIVE Tissue factor (TF), the initiator of the coagulation cascade, is expressed by cells in atherosclerotic lesions. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a component of oxidized lipoproteins and an agent released by activated platelets. The present study investigated whether and how TF expression is regulated by LPA. METHODS AND RESULTS Northern blotting, Western blotting, and TF activity assa...
متن کاملEffect of lysophosphatidic acid on the follicular development and the expression of lysophosphatidic acid receptor genes during in vitro culture of mouse ovary
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) known as a serum-derived growth factor, is involved in several cell physiological functions in the female reproductive system including: oocyte maturation, in vitro fertilization and embryo implantation by its transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors. The aim of the present study was to examine the effect of LPA on in vitro follicular development o...
متن کاملLysophosphatidylcholine regulates synthesis of biglycan and the proteoglycan form of macrophage colony stimulating factor.
OBJECTIVE We have shown that copper-oxidized LDL (Ox-LDL) regulates proteoglycan synthesis by arterial smooth muscle cells. Ox-LDL specifically upregulates biglycan expression while causing elongation of glycosaminoglycan chains on all of the major secreted proteoglycans (biglycan, decorin, and versican), resulting in enhanced lipoprotein-binding interactions. It is not known which component of...
متن کاملTransactivation of Egf Receptor Is an Obligatory Event for Stimulation of Protein Synthesis by G Protein-coupled Receptors in Vascular Smooth Muscle
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) was recently identified as a signal transducer of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). In this study, we have examined the contribution of EGFR transactivation to the growth-promoting effect of GPCRs on vascular smooth muscle cells. Activation of the Gq-coupled angiotensin II receptor or Gi-coupled lysophosphatidic acid receptor resulted in increased ...
متن کاملEGF receptor transactivation is obligatory for protein synthesis stimulation by G protein-coupled receptors.
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) was recently identified as a signal transducer of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). In this study, we have examined the contribution of EGFR transactivation to the growth-promoting effect of GPCRs on vascular smooth muscle cells. Activation of the G(q)-coupled ANG II receptor or G(i)-coupled lysophosphatidic acid receptor resulted in increased tyro...
