Triptolide inhibits the progression of atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein E-/- mice.
Atherosclerosis, the major cause of cardiovascular disease, is accompanied by a chronic inflammatory response during the disease. Triptolide (TPL) is an active natural compound that has been demonstrated to possess anti-inflammatory activities in various cell types. However, the effects of TPL on atherosclerosis have not yet been studied. The goal of the present study was to determine the effec...
متن کاملOverexpression of CCN3 Inhibits Inflammation and Progression of Atherosclerosis in Apolipoprotein E-Deficient Mice
BACKGROUND Cysteine-rich 61/connective tissue growth factor/nephroblastoma overexpressed (CCN) 3 has been recently reported to play a role in regulating inflammation of vascular endothelial cells. However, the role of CCN3 in atherosclerosis, which is characterized by vascular inflammation, remains unclear. HYPOTHESIS AND OBJECTIVES Overexpression of CCN3 may relieve the inflammation response...
متن کاملIL-25 Inhibits Atherosclerosis Development in Apolipoprotein E Deficient Mice
OBJECTIVE IL-25 has been implicated in the initiation of type 2 immunity and in the protection against autoimmune inflammatory diseases. Recent studies have identified the novel innate lymphoid type 2 cells (ILC2s) as an IL-25 target cell population. The purpose of this study was to evaluate if IL-25 has any influence on atherosclerosis development in mice. METHODS AND RESULTS Administration ...
متن کاملAspirin-triggered lipoxin A4 inhibits atherosclerosis progression in apolipoprotein E-/- mice.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Atherosclerosis is characterized by a chronic non-resolving inflammation in the arterial wall. Aspirin-triggered lipoxin A4 (ATL) is a potent anti-inflammatory mediator, involved in the resolution of inflammation. However, the therapeutic potential of immune targeting by means of ATL in atherosclerosis has not previously been explored. The aim of the present study was to ...
متن کاملOverexpression of PER2 inhibits the progression of atherosclerosis via the Akt-eNOS signaling in apolipoprotein e-null mice
Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease. The circadian clock gene has a connection with inflammation, including vascular inflammation. However, whether circadian clock gene has a regulatory effect on atherosclerosis is rarely studied. Our aim is to determine whether Period 2 (Per2), a main clock gene, exerts a therapeutical effect on atherosclerosis in Apolipoprotein E-null (ApoE-/-) mice. A...
