Smooth muscle LDL receptor-related protein-1 inactivation reduces vascular reactivity and promotes injury-induced neointima formation.
OBJECTIVE Defective smooth muscle expression of LDL receptor-related protein-1 (Lrp1) increases atherosclerosis in hypercholesterolemic mice. This study explored the importance of smooth muscle Lrp1 expression under normolipidemic conditions. METHODS AND RESULTS Smooth muscle cells isolated from control (smLrp1(+/+)) and smooth muscle-specific Lrp1 knockout (smLrp1(-/-)) mice were characteriz...
متن کاملS100A9 aggravates bleomycin-induced dermal fibrosis in mice via activation of ERK1/2 MAPK and NF-κB pathways
Objective(s): This study aims to investigate the pathogenicity and possible mechanisms of S100A9 function in mice models of scleroderma. Materials and Methods: The content of S100A9 in the skin tissues of mice with scleroderma was determined. Different concentrations of bleomycin (BLM) and S100A9 were subcutaneously injected into the backs of mice simultaneously, and then pathological changes i...
متن کاملNeprilysin regulates pulmonary artery smooth muscle cell phenotype through a platelet-derived growth factor receptor-dependent mechanism.
Reduced neprilysin (NEP), a cell surface metallopeptidase, which cleaves and inactivates proinflammatory and vasoactive peptides, predisposes the lung vasculature to exaggerated remodeling in response to hypoxia. We hypothesize that loss of NEP in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells results in increased migration and proliferation. Pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells isolated from NEP(-/-) mi...
متن کاملFocal adhesion kinase facilitates platelet-derived growth factor-BB-stimulated ERK2 activation required for chemotaxis migration of vascular smooth muscle cells.
The focal adhesion (FAK) non-receptor protein-tyrosine kinase (PTK) links both extracellular matrix/integrin and growth factor stimulation to intracellular signals promoting cell migration. Here we show that both transient and stable overexpression of the FAK C-terminal domain termed FRNK (FAK-related non-kinase) inhibits serum and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB-induced vascular smoot...
متن کاملLRP1 Regulates Architecture of the Vascular Wall by Controlling PDGFRβ-Dependent Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase Activation
BACKGROUND Low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1) protects against atherosclerosis by regulating the activation of platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta (PDGFRbeta) in vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs). Activated PDGFRbeta undergoes tyrosine phosphorylation and subsequently interacts with various signaling molecules, including phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), wh...
