چکیده

AIMS CYP1A1 and CYP1B1, members of the cytochrome P450 protein family, are regulated by fluid shear stress. This study describes the effects of duration, magnitude and pattern of shear stress on CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 expressions in human endothelial cells, towards the goal of understanding the role(s) of these genes in pro-atherogenic or anti-atherogenic endothelial cell functions. METHODS AND RESULTS We investigated CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 expressions under different durations, levels, and patterns of shear stress. CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 mRNA, protein, and enzymatic activity were maximally up-regulated at > or =24 h of arterial levels of shear stress (15-25 dynes/cm2). Expression of both genes was significantly attenuated by reversing shear stress when compared with 15 dynes/cm2 steady shear stress. Small interfering RNA knockdown of CYP1A1 resulted in significantly reduced CYP1B1 and thrombospondin-1 expression, genes regulated by the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). Immunostaining of human coronary arteries showed constitutive CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 protein expressions in endothelial cells. Immunostaining of mouse aorta showed nuclear localization of AhR and increased expression of CYP1A1 in the descending thoracic aorta, whereas reduced nuclear localization of AhR and attenuated CYP1A1 expression were observed in the lesser curvature of the aortic arch. CONCLUSION CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 gene and protein expressions vary with time, magnitude, and pattern of shear stress. Increased CYP1A1 gene expression modulates AhR-regulated genes. Based on our in vitro reversing flow data and in vivo immunostained mouse aorta, we suggest that increased expression of both genes reflects an anti-atherogenic endothelial cell phenotype.

Introduction: Human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hADSCs) are easily accessible in the body, and under appropriate conditions, they can be directed toward various phenotypes. Therefore, hADSCs have been considered as a potential cell source for tissue engineering applications. hADSCs are able to differentiate into endothelial cells which covers the interior surface of vessels, in vi...

Requirement of aryl hydrocarbon receptor overexpression for CYP1B1 up-regulation and cell growth in human lung adenocarcinomas.

PURPOSE CYP1B1 and CYP1A1 expression is up-regulated by activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) through binding of ligands such as cigarette smoke components. We examined the association between AhR, CYP1B1, and CYP1A1 expression in noninvasive bronchioloalveolar carcinomas (BAC) and lung adenocarcinomas and investigated the effects of AhR overexpression on cell physiology. EXPERIME...

Spironolactone Inhibits NADPH Oxidase-Mediated Oxidative Stress and Dysregulation of the Endothelial NO Synthase in Human Endothelial Cells

Accumulating evidence indicates that aldosterone plays a critical role in the mediation of oxidative stress and vascular damage. NADPH oxidase has been recognized as a major source of oxidative stress in vasculature. However, the relation between NADPH oxidase in aldosterone-mediated oxidative stress in endothelial cells remains to be ascertained. The present study aimed to investigate the rel...

Aryl hydrocarbon receptor mediates laminar fluid shear stress-induced CYP1A1 activation and cell cycle arrest in vascular endothelial cells.

AIMS We investigated the mechanisms of shear stress (SS)-induced activation of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A1 and cell cycle arrest with regard to the role of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), since AhR mediates the expression of CYP1A1 induced by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and is thought to be involved in the regulation of cell growth and differentiation. METHODS AND RESULTS Human...
