Based on the potential therapeutic benefits of preventing angiogenesis in pathological conditions, many studies have focused on the mechanisms of its initiation as well as control. However, how the extension of vessels is terminated remains obscure. Thus, we investigated the negative regulation mechanism. Approach and Results—We report that increased intracellular calcium can induce dephosphorylation of the endothelial receptor tyrosine kinase Tie2. The calcium-mediated dephosphorylation was found to be dependent on Tie2–calmodulin interaction. The Tyr1113 residue in the C-terminal end loop of the Tie2 kinase domain was mapped and found to be required for this interaction. Moreover, mutation of this residue into Phe impaired both the Tie2-calmodulin interaction and calcium-media...","PeriodicalId":8404,"journal":{"name":"Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, & Vascular Biology","volume":"59 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76127029","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is a critical initiating factor during atherosclerosis. Macrophage catabolism of agLDL (aggregated LDL) occurs using a specialized extracellular, hydrolytic compartment, the lysosomal synapse. Compartment formation by local actin polymerization and delivery of lysosomal contents by exocytosis promotes acidification of the compartment and degradation of agLDL. Internalization of metabolites, such as cholesterol, promotes foam cell formation, a process that drives atherogenesis. Furthermore, there is accumulating evidence for the involvement of TLR4 (Toll-like receptor 4) and its adaptor protein MyD88 (myeloid differentiation primary response 88) in atherosclerosis. Here, we investigated the role of TLR4 in catabolism of agLDL using the lysosomal synapse and foam cell formation. Approach and Results: Using bone marrow-derived macrophages from knockout mice, we find that TLR4 and MyD88 regulate compartment formation, lysosome exocytosis, acidification of the compartment, and foam cell formation. Using siRNA, pharmacological inhibition and knockout bone marrow-derived macrophages, we implicate SYK (spleen tyrosine kinase), PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase), and Akt in agLDL catabolism using the lysosomal synapse. Using bone marrow transplantation of LDL receptor knockout mice with TLR4KO bone marrow, we show that deficiency of TLR4 protects macrophages from lipid accumulation during atherosclerosis. Finally, we demonstrate that macrophages in vivo form an extracellular compartment and exocytose lysosome contents similar to that observed in vitro for degradation of agLDL. CONCLUSIONS We present a mechanism in which interaction of macrophages with agLDL initiates a TLR4 signaling pathway, resulting in formation of the lysosomal synapse, catabolism of agLDL, and lipid accumulation in vitro and in vivo.","PeriodicalId":8404,"journal":{"name":"Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, & Vascular Biology","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82485514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study was to validate the ability of optical coherence tomography (OCT) to detect CCs and to compare the prevalence and distribution of CCs in patients with AMIs and stable angina pectoris. Approach and Results: CC assessment using OCT were compared with histopathology results in 45 coronary samples. We investigated 152 consecutive patients with AMIs and 41 patients with single vessel-diseased stable angina pectoris. Based on the presence of plaque ruptures (PR), AMI patients were divided into 2 groups: those with PR (n=112) and those without PR (n=40). CCs invading fibrous caps were defined as superficial-type CCs. A multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to determine PR predictors. The sensitivity and specificity of OCT for detecting CCs were 68% and 92%, respectively. The prevalence of plaques with CCs was higher in the AMI with PR group (AMI with PR 81%, AMI without PR 48%, stable angina pectoris 39%, P<0.01). A multivariable logistic model showed that superficial-type CCs and thin-cap fibroatheromas were positive predictors for PR. CONCLUSIONS OCT has a high specificity and modest sensitivity for the detection of CCs. The combination of CCs invading fibrous cap and thin-cap fibroatheromas detected by OCT may better identify rupture-prone plaques.","PeriodicalId":8404,"journal":{"name":"Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, & Vascular Biology","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85242200","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Surgical treatment does not prevent skeletal muscle impairment or improve long-term patient outcomes. The present study investigates the protective/regenerative potential and the mechanism of action of adipose stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (ASC-EVs) in a mouse model of hindlimb ischemia. Approach and Results: We demonstrated that ASC-EVs exert a protective effect on muscle damage by acting both on tissue microvessels and muscle cells. The genes involved in muscle regeneration were up-regulated in the ischemic muscles of ASC-EV-treated animals. MyoD expression has also been confirmed in satellite cells. This was followed by a reduction in muscle function impairment in vivo. ASC-EVs drive myoblast proliferation and differentiation in the in vitro ischemia/reoxygenation model. Moreover, ASC-EVs have shown an anti-apoptotic effect both in vitro and in vivo. Transcriptomic analyses have revealed that ASC-EVs carry a variety of pro-angiogenic mRNAs, while proteomic analyses have demonstrated an enrichment of NRG1 (neuregulin 1). A NRG1 blocking antibody used in vivo demonstrated that NRG1 is relevant to ASC-EV-induced muscle protection, vascular growth, and recruitment of inflammatory cells. Finally, bioinformatic analyses on 18 molecules that were commonly detected in ASC-EVs, including mRNAs and proteins, confirmed the enrichment of pathways involved in vascular growth and muscle regeneration/protection.\u0000\u0000\u0000CONCLUSIONS\u0000This study demonstrates that ASC-EVs display pro-angiogenic and skeletal muscle protective properties that are associated with their NRG1/mRNA cargo.

Actually, he had 2 distinguished careers there: one devoted to plasma HDL (high-density lipoprotein) and the other to Lp(a) (lipoprotein(a)). Angelo had come to the United States in 1955 on a Fulbright Scholarship, working with Irvine Page at the Cleveland Clinic and with Walter Hughes at the Brookhaven National Laboratories. It was at this time he began his pioneering work on lipoproteins, developing a delipidation procedure that yielded apolipoproteins in essentially a lipidfree state. This breakthrough opened up the field of apolipoprotein research. He came to the University of Chicago in 1961 to do his American internship in internal medicine—a second internship, having done the first one in Italy, where he had graduated cum laude from Sassari University Medical School in 1949. Angelo then joined the faculty in the Department of Medicine at the University of Chicago, where he remained until his retirement in 2011. For the first 25 years of his research career, his focus was HDL, including the isolation and characterization of the structures of its 2 major apoproteins, A-I and A-II. Using innovative physicochemical methods, Angelo and his colleagues elucidated the role of the apolipoproteins in HDL structure. As a visiting investigator at CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique), Gif-sur Yvette, France, he learned to apply small-angle X-ray scattering to the examination of lipoprotein structure. Along with Dr Vittorio Luzzati, these studies led to a series of important new findings on the structural organization of low-density lipoprotein and HDL. This venture highlighted Angelo’s recognition of the importance of physical chemistry to the full understanding of lipoprotein structure—a view highlighted by his collaboration with Francois Kezdy, who was a close collaborator at the University of Chicago. Angelo was also a principal investigator in the Specialized Center of Research on Atherosclerosis where he studied the lipoproteins, lowdensity lipoprotein, and HDL of nonhuman primates. In the mid 1980s, the focus of Angelo’s laboratory shifted to the second theme of his research, Lp(a). In 1984, the group reported on the heterogeneity of Lp(a) particle size, which they correctly attributed to differently sized apo(a) (apolipoprotein(a)) moieties. In 1987, through a collaboration with Genentech, Inc, Angelo and his colleagues provided the first report of the unexpected similarity between the apo(a) component of Lp(a) and the fibrinolytic proenzyme plasminogen. The partial protein sequence data indicated the presence in apo(a) of domains corresponding to plasminogen kringle IV, kringle V, and protease sequences; the latter domain was shown to be inactive in apo(a). This work led to a publication in Nature in 1989, where Angelo’s group showed that Lp(a) inhibits the binding of plasminogen to vascular cells—an important mechanism for the ","PeriodicalId":8404,"journal":{"name":"Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, & Vascular Biology","volume":"53 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91219211","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Several oxidative pathways and antioxidant enzymes have been implicated; however, their mechanistic contributions during aging remain elusive. We hypothesized that mitochondria are an important source of platelet ROS and that mitochondrial SOD2 (superoxide dismutase) protects against mitochondrial ROS-driven platelet activation and thrombosis during aging. METHODS: We studied littermates of platelet-specific SOD2-knockout (SOD2 fl/fl Pf4Cre, pSOD2-KO) and control (SOD2 fl/fl ) mice at young (4–5 months) or old (18–20 months) ages. We examined agonist-induced platelet activation, platelet-dependent thrombin generation potential, and susceptibility to in vivo thrombosis. RESULTS: Platelet α IIb β 3 activation, aggregation, and adhesion were increased to similar extents in aged mice of both genotypes compared with young mice. In contrast, the age-dependent increases in mitochondrial and total cellular ROS, calcium elevation, and phosphatidylserine exposure were augmented in platelets from pSOD2-KO mice compared with control mice. Aged pSOD2-KO mice showed increased platelet-dependent thrombin generation compared with aged control mice. In vivo, aged pSOD2-KO mice exhibited enhanced susceptibility to carotid artery and pulmonary thrombosis compared to aged control mice. Adoptive transfer of platelets from aged pSOD2-KO but not aged control mice increased thrombotic susceptibility in aged host mice, suggesting a prothrombotic effect of platelet pSOD2 deficiency. Treatment with avasopasem manganese (GC4419), a SOD mimetic, decreased platelet mitochondrial pro-oxidants, cellular ROS levels, and inhibited procoagulant platelet formation and arterial thrombosis in aged mice. CONCLUSIONS: Platelet mitochondrial ROS contributes to age-related thrombosis and endogenous SOD2 protects from platelet-dependent thrombin generation and thrombosis during aging.
