SPOTLIGHT REVIEW MicroRNAs in flow-dependent vascular remodelling
Changes in haemodynamic forces in the vascular system result in an altered expression of miRs, which play important gene-regulatory roles by pairing to the mRNAs of protein-coding genes to fine-tune post-transcriptional repression. The development and structure of blood vessels are highly adapted to haemodynamic forces, such as shear stress, cyclic stretch, and circumferential wall stress, gene...
متن کاملThe role of autophagy in advanced glycation end product-induced proliferation and migration in rat vascular smooth muscle cells
Objective(s): To investigate the role of autophagy in advanced glycation end products (AGEs)-induced proliferation and migration in rat vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs).Materials and Methods: After culture, VSMCs were treated with 0, 1, 10, and 100 μg/ml concentrations of AGEs. Autophagy specific protein light chain 3 (LC3)-I/II was determined by western blotting, autophagosomes were observ...
متن کاملMicroRNA and vascular remodelling in acute vascular injury and pulmonary vascular remodelling.
Vascular remodelling is an integral pathological process central to a number of cardiovascular diseases. The complex interplay between distinct cell populations in the vessel wall following vascular injury leads to inflammation, cellular dysfunction, pro-growth signals in the smooth muscle cell (SMC) compartment, and the acquisition of a synthetic phenotype. Although the signals for vascular re...
متن کاملVascular remodelling in the lung.
In the 1960s, studies on lungs of normal, high altitude dwelling natives demonstrated distinct structural differences in the pulmonary vasculature, compared to native sea level dwellers, accompanied by mild pulmonary hypertension [1]. ARIAS-STELLA and SALDANA [2] reported an increase in medial muscle mass in the distal segments of the pulmonary arterial tree. This was considered not to be due t...
متن کاملInhibition of leptin-induced vascular extracellular matrix remodelling by adiponectin
Vascular extracellular matrix (ECM) remodelling, which is the result of disruption in the balance of ECM synthesis and degradation, induces vessel fibrosis and thereby leads to hypertension. Leptin is known to promote tissue fibrosis, while adiponectin has recently been demonstrated to be anti-fibrogenic in tissue fibrosis. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the leptin-antagonist function of a...
