Canagliflozin Inhibits Human Endothelial Cell Proliferation and Tube Formation
In conclusion, the present study identified canagliflozin as a potent inhibitor of human EC proliferation. The anti-proliferative action of canagliflozin is observed in ECs isolated from both the venous and arterial circulation, and is partly due to the blockade of cyclin A expression. In addition, this study found that canagliflozin inhibits tube formation in cultured ECs and mouse aortic rings. Notably, these actions are specific for canagliflozin and not seen with other SGLT2 inhibitors. The ability of canagliflozin to exert these pleiotropic effects on EC function may contribute to both the adverse and salutary actions...

KLF11 (Kru üppel-Like Factor 11) Inhibits Arterial Thrombosis via Suppression of Tissue Factor in the Vascular Wall.
Conclusions- Our data demonstrate that KLF11 is a novel transcriptional suppressor of F3 in vascular smooth muscle cells, constituting a potential molecular target for inhibition of arterial thrombosis. PMID: 30602303 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
