Oxidized low-density lipoproteins stimulate extracellular matrix metalloproteinase Inducer (EMMPRIN) release by coronary smooth muscle cells.
OBJECTIVE Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) seem to play a prominent role in atherogenesis. Extracellular MMP inducer (EMMPRIN), a cell surface glycoprotein which stimulates MMP synthesis, has recently been detected in human atheroma. We have investigated the influence of oxidized low-density lipoproteins (oxLDLs) on EMMPRIN expression in human coronary artery smooth muscle cells (HCA-SMCs). M...
متن کاملCD147 (Extracellular Matrix Metalloproteinase Inducer-EMMPRIN) Expression by Human Articular Chondrocytes
Background: Integrins are a family of transmembrane proteins that allow communication between the extracellular matrix and the interior of cells. Chondrocytes, cells of articular cartilage, express integrins and these molecules appear to have a variety of roles including mechanotransduction. Integrins are known to associate with a number of accessory molecules such as CD147 that may act to regu...
متن کاملOxidized low density lipoproteins stimulate phosphoinositide turnover in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells.
Atherogenesis is associated with alterations in the properties of different cell types, including monocytes/macrophages (foam cell formation), platelets (increased aggregation), endothelial cells (injury), and smooth muscle cells (SMCs) (lipid accumulation or foam cell formation). Oxidized low density lipoproteins (ox-LDL) play a key role in this vascular pathology. This study investigated the ...
متن کاملExtracellular Matrix Metalloproteinase Inducer EMMPRIN (CD147) in Cardiovascular Disease
The receptor EMMPRIN is involved in the development and progression of cardiovascular diseases and in the pathogenesis of myocardial infarction. There are several binding partners of EMMPRIN mediating the effects of EMMPRIN in cardiovascular diseases. EMMPRIN interaction with most binding partners leads to disease progression by mediating cytokine or chemokine release, the activation of platele...
