Project description:In order to further study the role of circular RNA in the phenotypic transformation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), the differential expression profile of circRNA in the phenotypic transition of VSMCs induced by platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB) was screened using chip technology. Vascular smooth muscle cells from rat thoracic aorta were induced with 20ng/ml PDGF-BB as the experimental group and compared with the control group. After induction for 24 hours, the differentially expressed circRNA was screened by circular RNA chip.

Project description:We applied the transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) for high-throughput profiling of genes changes in the phenotypic switch of VSMCs. Rat primary VSMCs were divided into 3 groups, control, PDGF-BB, PDGF-BB+PTUPB,and mRNA sequence were performed. We found that Cell cycle related genes and cellular senescence related genes were significantly upregulated by PDGF-BB and significantly reversed by PTUPB. Subsequently, we deleted PTTG1 as a key gene for PTUPB to reverse phenotypic switching in VSMCs. Our study provided the transcription changes by RNA-seq in VSMC phenotypic switch, and found that PTUPB played a crucial role in correcting the dysregulation of sEH/COX-2 derived ARA metabolism in VSMC phenotypic switch

Project description:We applied the transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) for high-throughput profiling of genes changes in VSMC dedifferentiation. Rat primary VSMCs were divided into 3 groups, control, PDGF-BB, PDGF-BB+PJ34,and mRNA sequence were performed. We found that PDGF-BB could upregualted the genes involved in cell proliferation and migration, and downregulated the VSMC contractile genes, all of which could be reversed by PARP inhibitor PJ34. Then we knockdowned the co-factor Myocardin in VSMCs, and found the above effects of PJ34 were nearly abolished.Our study first provided the transcription changes by RNA-seq in VSMC dedifferentiation, and demonstrated the key roles of PARP1 and the PARylation process in VSMC phenotypic switch.

Project description:Atherosclerosis is the most important mechanism of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and has become one of the most serious diseases that threaten human health. Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are the main cellular components that constitute the structure of the blood vessel wall. The excessive proliferation and migration are pivotal pathological basis of atherosclerosis, in-stent restenosis, pulmonary hypertension and other vascular proliferative diseases. PDGF-BB is a potent proliferative agent for VSMCs, but the specific mechanism of PDGF-BB signaling pathway involved in biological processes such as proliferation and migration of VSMCs is not elusive.

Project description:Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF-BB) released from the injured intima induces the proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), which is the key mechanism of neointimal hyperplasia. Zinc finger 36 (ZFP36), a widespread RNA-binding protein, is important for pathological processes in many diseases. In this study we investigated the role of ZFP36 in VSMCs proliferation, migration and neointimal hyperplasia in mice. We generated smooth muscle-specific Zfp36 knockout (Zfp36SMKO) mice, and established restenosis mouse models by ligation of left carotid artery in Zfp36SMKO mice. We showed that the expression levels of ZFP36 were significantly decreased in human atherosclerotic coronary arteries and murine injured carotid arteries compared with controls. Compared to control Zfp36fl/fl mice, Zfp36SMKO mice displayed accelerated neointimal hyperplasia. In cultured mouse VSMCs, PDGF-BB (20 ng/mL) significantly downregulated ZFP36 expression through KLF4 binding site in Zfp36 promoter. We revealed that ZFP36 could bind to the mRNA of cell migration-inducing protein (CEMIP) and promoted its degradation in VSMCs, thereby reducing the expression of CEMIP protein. Knockdown of Cemip inhibited VSMCs proliferation and migration induced by Zfp36 knockout, thereby suppressing neointimal hyperplasia in Zfp36SMKO mice. We conclude that vascular smooth muscle ZFP36 has a protective effect against neointimal hyperplasia by reducing CEMIP expression. ZFP36 is downregulated by vascular injury and PDGF-BB treatment, which promotes VSMCs proliferation and migration and neointima formation. The results suggest that targeting ZFP36 may represent a novel therapeutic strategy for preventing or treating neointimal hyperplasia and related cardiovascular diseases.

Project description:To study if the transcriptional content in exosomes derived from unntreated and growth factor treated cultured cardiomyocytes (HL-1) differ and if so, can this difference be explained.This is results for the cells.The exosome reults can be find at GSE40503. 4 control untreated samples, 4 TFG-beta2 cardiomyocyte treated samples and 4 PDGF BB cardiomyocyte were studied., this reults are from the corresponding cells (that released the exosomes), used for data filtering of the exsomedata. The exosome reults can be find at GSE40503.

Project description:Vascular stability and tone are maintained by contractile smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). However, injury-induced growth factors stimulate a contractile-synthetic phenotypic modulation which increases susceptibility to abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). As a regulator of embryonic VSMC differentiation, we hypothesised that Thymosin β4 (Tβ4) may function to maintain healthy vasculature throughout postnatal life. This was supported by the identification of an interaction with Low density lipoprotein receptor related protein 1 (LRP1), an endocytic regulator of PDGF-BB signalling and VSMC proliferation. LRP1 variants have been implicated by genome-wide association studies with risk of AAA and other arterial diseases. T4-null mice displayed aortic VSMC and elastin defects, phenocopying LRP1 mutants, and their compromised vascular integrity predisposed to Angiotensin II-induced aneurysm formation. Aneurysmal vessels were characterised by enhanced VSMC phenotypic modulation and augmented platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptor (PDGFR)β signalling. In vitro, enhanced sensitivity to PDGF-BB, upon loss of Tβ4, associated with dysregulated endocytosis, with increased recycling and reduced lysosomal targeting of LRP1-PDGFRβ. Accordingly, the exacerbated aneurysmal phenotype in T4-null mice was rescued upon treatment with the PDGFRβ antagonist, Imatinib. Our study identifies Tβ4 as a key regulator of LRP1 for maintaining vascular health and provides insights into the mechanisms of growth factor-controlled VSMC phenotypic modulation underlying aortic disease progression.

Project description:Smooth muscle cells were treated with platelet derived growth factor (PDGF-BB) and S100A4 protein to decipher the mechanisms by which they contribute to smooth muscle cell phenotypic transition. We report that PDGF-BB treatment upregulates genes related to growth response or to extracellular matrix component proteases, while S100A4 upregulates pro-inflammatory genes. When used in combination, PDGF-BB and S100A4 show synergistic action by enhancing the upregulation of genes already affected by S100A4 and by inducing the upregulation of genes exclusive for this condition.

Project description:Vascular pericytes, an important cellular component, in the tumor microenvironment, are often associated with tumor vasculatures and their functions in cancer invasion and metastasis are poorly understood. Here we show that PDGF-BB induces pericyte fibroblast transition (designated as PFT), which significantly contributes to tumor invasion and metastasis. Gain- and loss-of-function experiments demonstrate that the PDGF-BB-PDGFRβ signaling promotes PFT in vitro and in in vivo tumors. Genome-wide expression analysis indicates that PDGF-BB-activated pericytes acquire mesenchymal progenitor features. Pharmacological inhibition and genetic deletion of PDGFRβ ablate the PDGF-BB-induced PFT. Genetic tracing of pericytes with two independent mouse strains, i.e., TN-AP-CreERT2:R26R-tdTomato and NG2:R26R-tdTomato, shows that PFT cells gains stromal fibroblast and myofibroblast markers in tumors. Importantly, co-implantation of PFT cells with less-invasive tumor cells in mice markedly promotes tumor dissemination and invasion, leading to an increased number of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and metastasis. Our findings reveal a novel mechanism of vascular pericytes in PDGF-BB-promoted cancer invasion and metastasis by inducing PFT and thus targeting PFT may offer a new treatment option of cancer metastasis. Pericytes were isolated and treated with PDGF-BB or control for 1 or 5 days
