Otud6b induces pulmonary arterial hypertension by mediating the Calpain-1/HIF-1α signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT: Pulmonary hypertension (PAH) is a cardiopulmonary disease in which pulmonary artery pressure continues to rise, leading to right heart failure and death. Otud6b is a member of the ubiquitin family and is involved in cell proliferation, apoptosis and inflammation. The aim of this study was to understand the role and mechanism of Otud6b in PAH. C57BL/6 and Calpain-1 knockout (KO) mice were exposed to a PAH model induced by 10% oxygen. Human pulmonary artery endothelial cells (HPACEs) and human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (HPASMCs) were exposed to 3% oxygen to establish an in vitro model. Proteomics was used to determine the role of Otud6b and its relationship to Calpain-1/HIF-1α signaling. The increased expression of Otud6b is associated with the progression of PAH. ROtud6b activate
