Linc00657 promoted pyroptosis in THP-1-derived macrophages and exacerbated atherosclerosis via the miR-106b-5p/TXNIP/NLRP3 axis
This study was designed to investigate the effects and underlying mechanisms of linc00657 in atherogenesis. The results showed that ox-LDL treatment significantly induced pyroptosis in human THP-1-derived macrophages. The secretion levels of LDH and pro-inflammatory factors were markedly enhanced, and the integrity of plasma membranes was disrupted in ox-LDL-treated THP-1-derived macrophages. These effects were significantly compensated after transfection with linc00657 siRNA and became more evident by linc00657 overexpression. Moreover, the effects of linc00657 overexpression on pyroptosis of THP-1-derived macrophages can...

FUS regulates the alternative splicing of cell proliferation genes related to atherosclerosis
Exp Biol Med (Maywood). 2023 Sep 9:15353702231187642. doi: 10.1177/15353702231187642. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTFUS plays a significant role as an RNA-binding protein in several cellular processes, including RNA splicing, DNA repair, and transcriptional regulation. However, the RNA-binding capacity of FUS in atherosclerosis is unclear. We aimed to study the functions of FUS in inflammatory regulation through the role of the splicing factor. We knocked down FUS with siRNA to further study the overall transcriptional level and select alternative splicing (AS) of FUS regulation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (H...

Effect of GRK4 on renal gastrin receptor regulation in hypertension
CONCLUSION: GRK4 participates in the development of hypertension by regulating the phosphorylation of renal CCKBR leading to impaired CCKBR function and water and sodium retention. Knockdown of GRK4 restored the function of CCKBR. The enhanced co-connection between GRK4 and CCKBR may be an important reason for the hyperphosphorylation of GRK4 and CCKBR involved in the pathogenesis of hypertension.PMID:37641972 | DOI:10.1080/10641963.2023.2245580

Updates in Drug Treatment of Severe Hypertriglyceridemia
AbstractPurpose of ReviewTo provide an insight into the new pharmacological options for the treatment of severe hypertriglyceridemia (sHTG).Recent FindingssHTG is difficult to treat. The majority of the traditional pharmacological agents available have limited success in both robustly decreasing triglyceride levels and/or in reducing the incidence of acute pancreatitis (AP), the most severe complication of sHTG. Therapeutic options with novel mechanisms of action have been developed, such as antisense oligonucleotides (ASO) and small interfering RNA (siRNA) targetingAPOC3 andANGPTL3. The review discusses also 2 abandoned d...

Musashi-2 binds with Fbxo6 to induce Rnaset2 ubiquitination and chemokine signaling pathway during vascular smooth muscle cell phenotypic switch in atherosclerosis
CONCLUSION: Our findings demonstrated that MSI2 could bind with Fbxo6 to induce Rnaset2 ubiquitination and the activation of chemokine signaling pathway during VSMC phenotypic switch in AS.PMID:37633478 | DOI:10.1016/j.cellsig.2023.110869

TRIM65 Suppresses oxLDL-induced Endothelial Inflammation by Interaction with VCAM-1 in Atherogenesis
CONCLUSION: Our studies indicate that TRIM65 attenuates the endothelial inflammatory response by targeting VCAM-1 for ubiquitination and provides a potential therapeutic target for the inhibition of endothelial inflammation in AS.PMID:37608612 | DOI:10.2174/0929867331666230822152350

Ferrostatin-1 Blunts Right Ventricular Hypertrophy and Dysfunction in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension by Suppressing the HMOX1/GSH Signaling
AbstractFerroptosis plays a critical role in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH)-induced right ventricular (RV) dysfunction, but key genes remain largely unclear. We here identified HMOX1 as an essential ferroptosis-related differentially expressed gene in PAH by bioinformatic analysis using FerrDb, GSE119754, and GSE3675 datasets, respectively. Notably, there were marked increases in HMOX1 and iron levels in RV of monocrotaline-induced PAH rats with reduced TAPSE levels. More importantly, treatment with ferrostatin-1 effectively attenuated RV hypertrophy, remodeling, myocardial fibrosis, and dysfunction in PAH rats. In ...

Reduction in LDL-C following treatment with inclisiran at 2 months in a single centre lipid clinic cohort
Background and Aims: Inclisiran is a new first in class small interfering RNA (siRNA) lipid lowering drug that has been shown to be effective in reducing low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) in randomised controlled trials. However, real-world data of its use is currently lacking. We aimed to analyse the early effects of this drug in a tertiary centre lipid clinic.

PCSK9 inhibitors preferences and shared decision making
Background and Aims: High risk patients who do not reach LDL-C target currently have three options: 1) addition of PCSK9 monoclonal antibody (mAb), 2) addition of a PCSK9 siRNA, or 3) no additional medication. Shared decision making is considered important in contemporary patient care. The first step is to gain insight in the preferences of patients and healthcare providers, which is the aim of our study.
