In this study, we compared the potencies of diosgenin, a plant-derived sapogenin structurally similar to estrogen and progesterone, on vascular smooth muscle functions ranging from contraction and migration to apoptosis. The effects of diosgenin on vascular smooth muscle cell viability and migration were measured using a primary mouse aortic smooth muscle cell culture. The effects of diosgenin ...

CD44, the principal receptor for hyaluronic acid, is a widely distributed cell surface proteoglycan involved in cellular activation, proliferation, and migration. These processes are also central to the vascular smooth muscle cell's response to arterial wall injury. We evaluated the expression of CD44 and its isoform, CD44-V6, on vascular smooth muscle cells in vitro and in vivo and assessed th...

OBJECTIVE Integrins contribute to vascular morphogenesis through regulation of adhesion and assembly of the extracellular matrix. However, the role of β1-integrin in the mature vascular wall is less clear. APPROACH AND RESULTS We sought to determine the function of β1-integrin in mature smooth muscle cells in vivo using a loss of function approach by crossing a tamoxifen-inducible sm22αCre li...

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...
