HEMOSTASIS, THROMBOSIS, AND VASCULAR BIOLOGY Green fluorescent protein selectively induces HSP70-mediated up-regulation of COX-2 expression in endothelial cells
Reporter genes, including green fluorescent protein (GFP), have been used to monitor the expression of transgenes introduced into vascular cells by gene transfer vectors. Here, we demonstrate that GFP by itself can selectively induce expression of certain genes in endothelial cells. Elevation of the cytoplasmic concentration of GFP in endothelial cells, specifically, resulted in a robust upregu...
متن کاملHEMOSTASIS, THROMBOSIS, AND VASCULAR BIOLOGY Modulation of angiogenesis by -3 polyunsaturated fatty acids is mediated by cyclooxygenases
The potential role of dietary fats in cancer is attracting considerable interest within the community. Both epidemiologic and experimental findings suggest that omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids ( -3 PUFAs), which are almost absent from typical Western diets, exert protective effects against cancer progression, although the precise mechanism of this suppression remains unknown. One of the pot...
متن کاملRole of protease activated receptor 1 and 2 signaling in hypoxia-induced angiogenesis.
OBJECTIVE Tissue factor (TF) initiates coagulation and indirectly triggers thrombin-dependent protease activated receptor (PAR) signaling. The TF-VIIa complex also directly cleaves PAR2 and promotes angiogenesis in vitro in TF cytoplasmic domain-deleted (TF(deltaCT)) mice. Here we address the effect of PAR1 and PAR2 deficiency on angiogenesis in vivo. METHODS AND RESULTS In hypoxia-driven ang...
متن کاملHEMOSTASIS, THROMBOSIS, AND VASCULAR BIOLOGY Regulation of angiogenesis through a microRNA (miR-130a) that down-regulates antiangiogenic homeobox genes GAX and HOXA5
Angiogenesis is critical to tumor progression. The homeobox gene GAX inhibits angiogenesis in vascular endothelial cells (ECs). We have identified a microRNA (miR-130a) that regulates GAX expression and hypothesized that it plays a major role in modulating GAX activity in ECs. A 280-bp fragment from the GAX 3 -untranslated region (3 -UTR) containing 2 miR-130a targeting sites was observed to be...
متن کاملHEMOSTASIS, THROMBOSIS, AND VASCULAR BIOLOGY Functional analysis of the cytoplasmic domain of the integrin 1 subunit in endothelial cells
Integrin 1 1, the major collagen type IV receptor, is expressed by endothelial cells and plays a role in both physiologic and pathologic angiogenesis. Because the molecular mechanisms whereby this collagen IV receptor mediates endothelial cell functions are poorly understood, truncation and point mutants of the integrin 1 subunit cytoplasmic tail (amino acids 1137-1151) were generated and expre...
