Morphine Prevents Ischemia/Reperfusion-Induced Myocardial Mitochondrial Damage by Activating δ-opioid Receptor/EGFR/ROS Pathway
ConclusionsMorphine may prevent I/R-induced myocardial mitochondrial damage by activating EGFR through δ-opioid receptors, in turn increasing RISK and SAFE pathway activity via intracellular ROS. Moreover, morphine may reduce myocardial injury by regulating autophagy but not apoptosis.

Orai1 Inhibitors as Potential Treatments for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
CONCLUSIONS: In human PAH and experimental PH, Orai1 expression and activity are increased. Orai1 inhibition normalizes the PAH-hPASMCs phenotype and attenuates PH in rat models. These results suggest that Orai1 should be considered as a relevant therapeutic target for PAH.PMID:36164973 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCRESAHA.122.321041

Identification of the Transcription Factor ATF3 as a Direct and Indirect Regulator of the LDLR
This study relied on two main resources: (1) genes with impact on atherosclerosis/CAD, and (2) liver-specific transcriptome analyses from human and mouse studies. The transcription factor activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3) was identified as a key regulator of a liver network relevant to atherosclerosis and linked to inflammation and cholesterol metabolism. ATF3 was predicted to be a direct and indirect (via MAF BZIP Transcription Factor F (MAFF)) regulator of low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR). Chromatin immunoprecipitation DNA sequencing (ChIP-seq) data from human liver cells revealed an ATF3 binding motif in t...

Transcription factor EB protects against endoplasmic reticulum stress in human coronary artery endothelial cells
Eur J Pharmacol. 2022 Sep 12:175274. doi: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2022.175274. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOxidative stress and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress promote atherogenesis while transcription factor EB (TFEB) inhibits atherosclerosis. Since reducing oxidative stress with antioxidants have failed to reduce atherosclerosis possibly because of aggravation of ER stress, we studied the effect of TFEB on ER stress in human coronary artery endothelial cells. ER stress was measured using the secreted alkaline phosphatase assay. Expression and phosphorylation of key mediators of unfolded protein response (UPR). TFEB, inosito...

Kv1.3 Channel Is Involved In Ox-LDL-induced Macrophage Inflammation Via ERK/NF- κB signaling pathway
In conclusion, Kv1.3 may be an indispensable membrane protein in ox-LDL-induced RAW264.7 macrophage inflammation in atherosclerosis through the ERK/NF-κB pathway.PMID:36100082 | DOI:10.1016/j.abb.2022.109394

mPR α and PR co-operate in progesterone inhibition of endothelial cell focal adhesion
J Mol Endocrinol. 2022 Sep 1:JME-22-0073. doi: 10.1530/JME-22-0073. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTProgesterone causes vascular smooth muscle cell relaxation through membrane progesterone receptors (mPRs), which are members of the progestin and adipoQ receptor (PAQR) family, and nuclear PRs (nPRs). However, beneficial vascular effects of progesterone in preventing pre-atherosclerosis and the involvement of mPRs and nPRs remain unclear. The results show short- to long-term treatments with 100 nM progesterone (P4) and specific agonists for mPRs, OD 02-0, and nPRs, R5020, inhibited pre-atherosclerotic events in human umbilical...

Study on the Mechanism of circRNA-0024103 Reducing Endothelial Cell Injury by Regulating miR-363/MMP-10
Contrast Media Mol Imaging. 2022 Aug 2;2022:1709325. doi: 10.1155/2022/1709325. eCollection 2022.ABSTRACTCardiovascular diseases could damage the heart and blood vessels, which cause mortality and morbidity. It is of great significance to explore targeted therapeutic approaches for atherosclerosis that is one of the most common vascular lesions and the main pathological basis of cardiovascular disease. However, the function of circRNA-0024103 in cardiovascular diseases is still not clear. Therefore, we aim to observe the effect of circRNA-0024103 modulation of miR-363/MMP-10 axis on biological behaviors such as proliferati...

Role of PCK2 in the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells in neointimal hyperplasia
Int J Biol Sci. 2022 Aug 8;18(13):5154-5167. doi: 10.7150/ijbs.75577. eCollection 2022.ABSTRACTVascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation is a hallmark of neointimal hyperplasia (NIH) in atherosclerosis and restenosis post-balloon angioplasty and stent insertion. Although numerous cytotoxic and cytostatic therapeutics have been developed to reduce NIH, it is improbable that a multifactorial disease can be successfully treated by focusing on a preconceived hypothesis. We, therefore, aimed to identify key molecules involved in NIH via a hypothesis-free approach. We analyzed four datasets (GSE28829, GSE43292, GSE100927,...

Fine-tuning of microglia polarization prevents diabetes-associated cerebral atherosclerosis
In this study, we showed that polarization of microglia, the resident macrophage in the central nervous system, appeared to play a critical role in the pathological progression of cerebral atherosclerosis. Microglia likely underwent an M2c-like polarization in an environment long exposed to high glucose. Experimental suppression of microglia M2c polarization was achieved through transduction of microglia with an adeno-associated virus (serotype AAV-PHP.B) carrying siRNA for interleukin-10 (IL-10) under the control of a microglia-specific TMEM119 promoter, which significantly attenuated diabetes-associated cerebral atherosc...
