Increase in prostaglandin E(2) production by interleukin-1beta in arterial smooth muscle cells derived from patients with moyamoya disease.

چکیده
Moyamoya disease is a progressive cerebrovascular occlusive disease that primarily affects children. The cause is unknown. We examined the production of prostanoids and the expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in cultured arterial smooth muscle cells (SMCs) derived from patients with moyamoya disease. Twelve moyamoya and 8 control cell strains were examined. The steady-state levels of prostanoids in the culture medium did not differ between moyamoya and control SMCs. When the cells were stimulated with interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) release into the medium was significantly greater from moyamoya SMCs than from control SMCs, whereas the amounts of prostacyclin and thromboxane B(2) did not differ. IL-1beta-induced PGE(2) production by moyamoya SMCs was completely blocked by the addition of indomethacin or NS-398. IL-1beta significantly stimulated cell migration and DNA synthesis in control SMCs but had an inhibitory effect on moyamoya SMCs. The inhibitory effects on the growth and migration of moyamoya SMCs were caused by excessive secretion of PGE(2) and was reversed with indomethacin treatment. Immunofluorescence studies and Western blot analysis showed greater amounts of COX-2 protein expression in IL-1beta-stimulated moyamoya SMCs. These findings suggest that moyamoya SMCs respond to inflammatory stimuli to produce excess amounts of PGE(2) through the activation of COX-2, which increases vascular permeability and decreases vascular tone. This facilitates the exposure of vessels to blood constituents and promotes the development of intimal thickening in moyamoya disease.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Moyamoya disease is a progressive cerebrovascular occlusive disease affecting primarily children. The etiology remains unknown. We examined the chemotactic and proliferative activities of inflammatory cell products from arterial smooth muscle cells (SMCs) derived from moyamoya patients and compared them with those from control subjects. METHODS We used 12 SMC strains fr...
متن کامل25-hydroxycholesterol increases eicosanoids and alters morphology in cultured pulmonary artery smooth muscle and endothelial cells.
25-hydroxycholesterol (25-OHC) is an oxidized derivative of cholesterol that has been implicated in the early development of arteriosclerosis. Changes in arterial smooth muscle cell (SMC) migration and proliferation have also been linked to the pathophysiology of arteriosclerosis. SMCs undergo "activation" in response to vascular injury by changing phenotypically and by increasing prostaglandin...
متن کاملPeroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma ligands inhibit nitric oxide synthesis in vascular smooth muscle cells.
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) is a key player in glucose metabolism. If PPARgamma ligands modulate nitric oxide (NO) synthesis in the vascular tissue, they may affect the process of plaque formation and postangioplasty restenosis. We investigated the effects of PPARgamma ligands on NO synthesis in vascular smooth muscle cells. Incubation of cultures with interleuk...

Interleukin (IL)-1beta induces cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 expression and prostanoid formation in cultured human airway smooth muscle (HASM) cells. In other cell types, IL-6 family cytokines induce COX-2 or augment IL-1beta-induced COX-2 expression. The purpose of this study was to determine whether IL-6 family cytokines were involved in COX-2 expression in HASM cells. RT-PCR was used to demonstrate...
