Adropin is a novel regulator of endothelial function.
BACKGROUND Adropin is a recently identified protein that has been implicated in the maintenance of energy homeostasis and insulin resistance. Because vascular function and insulin sensitivity are closely related, we hypothesized that adropin may also exert direct effects on the endothelium. METHODS AND RESULTS In vitro cell culture models were partnered with an in vivo murine injury model to ...
متن کاملKLF2 Is a Novel Transcriptional Regulator of Endothelial Proinflammatory Activation
The vascular endothelium is a critical regulator of vascular function. Diverse stimuli such as proinflammatory cytokines and hemodynamic forces modulate endothelial phenotype and thereby impact on the development of vascular disease states. Therefore, identification of the regulatory factors that mediate the effects of these stimuli on endothelial function is of considerable interest. Transcrip...
متن کاملTIMAP is a positive regulator of pulmonary endothelial barrier function.
TGF-beta-inhibited membrane-associated protein, TIMAP, is expressed at high levels in endothelial cells (EC). It is regarded as a member of the MYPT (myosin phosphatase target subunit) family of protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) regulatory subunits; however, its function in EC is not clear. In our pull-down experiments, recombinant TIMAP binds preferentially the beta-isoform of the catalytic subunit ...
متن کاملNetrin-1 is a novel regulator of vascular endothelial function in diabetes
BACKGROUND Netrin-1, a secreted laminin-like protein identified as an axon guidance molecule, has been shown to be of critical importance in the cardiovascular system. Recent studies have revealed pro-angiogenic, anti-apoptotic and anti-inflammatory properties of netrin-1 as well as cardioprotective actions against myocardial injury in diabetic mice. AIM To examine the role of netrin-1 in dia...
متن کاملRegulation and Function of TRPM7 in Human Endothelial Cells: TRPM7 as a Potential Novel Regulator of Endothelial Function
TRPM7, a cation channel of the transient receptor potential channel family, has been identified as a ubiquitous magnesium transporter. We here show that TRPM7 is expressed in endothelial cells isolated from the umbilical vein (HUVEC), widely used as a model of macrovascular endothelium. Quiescence and senescence do not modulate TRPM7 amounts, whereas oxidative stress generated by the addition o...
