The influence of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) on apoptotic cell death and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene expression in cultured bovine retinal pericytes was investigated. When pericytes were incubated with three immunochemically distinct AGEs, which were prepared in vitro by incubating bovine serum albumin with glucose, glyceraldehyde, or glycolaldehyde, apoptotic cell death and DNA ladder formation were significantly induced. The cytopathic effects of glyceraldehyde- or glycolaldehyde-derived AGEs were significantly enhanced in AGE receptor-transfected pericytes. Furthermore, all of these AGEs were found to upregulate the secretory forms of VEGF mRNA levels in retinal pericytes. These results suggest that AGEs disturbed retinal microvascular homeostasis by inducing pericyte apoptosis and VEGF overproduction and thus were involved in the pathogenesis of early phase diabetic retinopathy. 相似文献

Inflammation in vascular (mostly arterial) walls and heart valves triggered by the trans-endothelial influx of LDL particles and the action of subsequently modified (e.g., by oxidation) LDL particles can trigger true bone formation by valvar fibroblasts, by a subpopulation of re-differentiation-competent VSMCs (vascular smooth muscle cells) or by vascular pericytes. Vascular ossification can lead to heart failure and death. Elderly osteoporotic women who need osteogenic drugs to restore their lost skeletal bone are paradoxically prone to vascular ossification-the "calcification paradox." The recent introduction into the clinic of a potently osteogenic parathyroid hormone peptide, Lilly's rhPTH-(1-34)OH (Forteotrade mark), to reverse skeletal bone loss raises the question of whether this and other potently osteogenic PTHs still in clinical trial might also stimulate vascular ossification in such osteoporotic women. Indeed the VSMCs in human and rat atherosclerotic lesions hyperexpress PTHrP and the PTHR1 (or PTH1R) receptor as do maturing osteoblasts. And the evidence indicates that endogenous PTHrP with its NLS (nuclear/nucleolar localization sequence) does stimulate VSMC proliferation (a prime prerequisite for atheroma formation and ossification) via intranuclear targets that inactivate pRb, the inhibitory G1/S checkpoint regulator, by stimulating its hyperphosphorylation. But neither externally added full-length PTHrP nor the NLS-lacking PTHrP-(1-34)OH gets into the VSMC nucleus and instead they inhibit proliferation and calcification by only activating the cell's PTHR1 receptors. No PTH has an NLS and, as expected from the observations on the externally added PTHrPs, hPTH-(1-34)OH inhibits calcification by VSMCs and cannot stimulate vascular ossification in a diabetic mouse model. Encouraging though this may be for osteoporotics with their "calcification paradox," more work is needed to be sure that the skeletally osteogenic PTHs do not promote vascular ossification with its cardiovascular consequences. 相似文献

The thoracic diaphragm is a unique skeletal muscle composed of costal, crural, and central tendon domains. Although commonly described in medical textbooks, newer insights into the diaphragm cell composition are scarce. Here, using reporter mice, combined with gene expression analyses of whole tissues and primary cultures, we compared the diaphragm domains and their myogenic progenitors (i.e., Pax3/7 satellite cells). The outcomes of these analyses underscore the similarities between the myogenic aspects of the costal and crural domains. Expression levels of all myogenic genes examined (except Pax3) were strongly affected in mdx (dystrophin-null) mice and accompanied by an increase in fibrosis- and adiposity-related gene expression. Cell culture studies further indicated the presence of a non-myogenic Pax3-expressing population, potentially related to vascular mural cells. We additionally investigated the diaphragm vasculature. XLacZ4 and Sca1-GFP transgenes allowed a fine definition of the arterial and microvasculature network based on reporter expression in mural cells and capillary endothelium, respectively. We also provide insights into the organization of the diaphragm venous system, especially apparent in the central tendon and exhibiting arcades lined with fat-containing cells. The novel information in this "contemporary atlas" can be further explored in the context of diaphragm pathology and genetic disorders. 相似文献
