We hypothesized that the antioxidant effects of dexrazoxane would prevent homocysteine-induced endothelial dysfunction in the brachial artery of normal human subjects. Methods and Results—Ten healthy volunteers completed a randomized, double-blind, crossover study. Plasma homocysteine levels and brachial artery endothelium-dependent (flow-mediated dilation [FMD]) and endothelium-independent (sublingual nitroglycerin) responses were measured before and 4 hours after ingestion of l-methionine (100 mg/kg), preceded by intravenous administration of dexrazoxane (500 mg/m2) or placebo over 30 minutes. After placebo, oral methionine increased plasma homocysteine (from 5.1±0.4 &mgr;mol/L at baseline to 14.2±1.3 &mgr;mol/L at 4 hours, P <0.001) and decreased FMD (from 3.8±0.7% at baseline to 1.2±0.5% at 4 hours, P =0.02). Dexrazoxane did not change homocysteine concentrations after methionine administration (14.9±1.1 &mgr;mol/L at 4 hours, P =0.29 versus placebo) but did completely abrogate the homocysteine-induced reduction in FMD (from 3.5±0.5% at baseline to 5.9±1.1% at 4 hours, P <0.01 versus placebo). Endothelium-independent responses to sublingual nitroglycerin did not differ after the administration of placebo and dexrazoxane. Conclusions—Administration of the novel antioxidant agent dexrazoxane prevents homocysteine-induced impairment of vascular endothelial function in the brachial artery of healthy subjects.","PeriodicalId":8418,"journal":{"name":"Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology: Journal of the American Heart Association","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85980661","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}

Methods and Results—The effect of a 6-week treatment with the AT1 receptor antagonist candesartan (16 mg/d) on endothelial function and serum inflammation markers was compared with the effect of treatment with placebo or the calcium channel antagonist felodipine (5 mg/d) in 47 hypercholesterolemic patients (low density lipoprotein cholesterol >160 mg/dL). Endothelial function was assessed by measurement of forearm blood flow (FBF) by venous occlusion plethysmography. FBF during reactive hyperemia was significantly improved by candesartan, whereas felodipine and placebo exerted no effect. Nitroglycerin-induced vasorelaxation and basal FBF were not altered significantly. Blood pressure and cholesterol levels were not affected significantly by any drug. Serum concentrations of 8-isoprostane, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, and soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 were significantly reduced by candesartan treatment but not by placebo or felodipine (ELISA assays). Levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and tumor necrosis factor-&agr; were not altered significantly by any treatment. Conclusions—These data suggest that AT1 receptor antagonism improves endothelial function during hypercholesterolemia and that this applies not only to endothelium-dependent vasodilatation but also to oxidative stress and events involved in monocyte attraction and adhesion. AT1 receptor blockade may potentially represent a novel approach for the prevention of vascular dysfunction associated with hypercholesterolemia that is independent of lipid-lowering and blood pressure–lowering interventions.","PeriodicalId":8418,"journal":{"name":"Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology: Journal of the American Heart Association","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85535181","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}

Secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2), an acute-phase protein, may play a key role in the pathophysiology of this phenomenon. Methods and Results—To investigate the effects of sPLA2 on human-like HDL particles in vivo, we generated transgenic mice overexpressing human apoA-I and human sPLA2 (apoA-I/sPLA2 mice). Compared with apoA-I mice, apoA-I/sPLA2 mice had significantly lower plasma levels of phospholipids, HDL cholesterol, and apoA-I (each P <0.01). HDL from apoA-I/sPLA2 mice was significantly depleted in phospholipids and cholesteryl esters (each P <0.001) but was enriched in protein and triglycerides (each P <0.001). As assessed by gel filtration and nondenaturing gel electrophoresis, sPLA2 overexpression in apoA-I mice resulted in a dramatic shift of the HDL particle size toward smaller particles. Furthermore, virtually all plasma sPLA2 in apoA-I/sPLA2 mice was found in association with the HDL fraction. The acute-phase response was induced in apoA-I/sPLA2 double-transgenic and apoA-I single-transgenic mice by intraperitoneal lipopolysaccharide (LPS) injection. Plasma sPLA2 was significantly increased after LPS injection in apoA-I/sPLA2 mice. Twelve hours after LPS administration, plasma total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, apoA-I, and phospholipids were unchanged in apoA-I transgenic control mice but had decreased significantly in the apoA-I/sPLA2 mice (−57%, −62%, and −54%, −61%, respectively; each P <0.001). Both groups of mice had increased plasma levels of serum amyloid A (SAA) in response to LPS. To test the hypothesis that SAA may be an in vivo activator of sPLA2, we specifically overexpressed SAA in apoA-I/sPLA2 mice by means of liver-directed gene transfer. Despite high plasma levels of SAA, plasma lipid and lipoprotein profiles were not different than those in control mice. Conclusions—These results in a mouse model of human-like HDL indicate that sPLA2 expression significantly influences HDL particle size and composition and demonstrate that an induction of sPLA2 is required for the decrease in plasma HDL cholesterol in response to inflammatory stimuli in mice and that this effect is independent of SAA.","PeriodicalId":8418,"journal":{"name":"Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology: Journal of the American Heart Association","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75942963","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}

Using FGF2 knockout (Fgf2−/−) mice, we tested the hypothesis that FGF2 is required during flow-dependent remodeling of the carotid arteries. Methods and Results—All branches originating from the left common carotid artery (LCCA), except for the left thyroid artery, were ligated to reduce flow in the LCCA and increase flow in the contralateral right common carotid artery (RCCA). Age- and sex-matched control animals did not undergo ligation of the LCCA branches. Morphometric analysis showed that by day 7, vessel diameter was significantly greater in the high-flow RCCA of FGF2 wild-type (Fgf2+/+) and Fgf2−/− mice versus the respective control RCCA, demonstrating outward remodeling. In contrast, vessel diameter was decreased by day 7 in the low-flow LCCA of both genotypes compared with the control LCCA, showing inward remodeling. No differences were observed between Fgf2+/+ and Fgf2−/− mice in either high-flow or low-flow remodeling.

Methods and Results—By autoradiography (125I-[Sar1Ile8]-Ang II with or without AT1R- or AT2R-selective analogues or 125I - CGP 42112), there were striking rostrocaudal differences in (1) AT2R binding at all ages (prominent in AA wall and branches, sparse in TA wall and branches) and (2) a non-AT2R binding site for CGP 42112 (consistently evident in postnatal TA and branches but absent in AA and branches). Furthermore, patterns of AT2R distribution in infradiaphragmatic arteries were developmentally distinct. In fetal AAs, high-density AT2Rs occupied the inner 60% of the medial-endothelial wall.

To test this hypothesis, we sought to characterize the lysine (fibrin)-binding function of isolated apo(a) of variable sizes. Methods and Results—Recombinant apo(a) [r-apo(a)] preparations consisting of 10 to 34 kringles and a monoclonal antibody that neutralizes the lysine-binding function were produced and used in parallel with lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] particles isolated from plasma in fibrin-binding studies. All r-apo(a) preparations displayed similar affinity and specificity for lysine residues on fibrin regardless of size (Kd 3.6±0.3 nmol/L) and inhibited the binding of plasminogen with a similar intensity (IC50 16.8±5.4 nmol/L). In contrast, native Lp(a) particles displayed fibrin affinities that were in inverse relationship with the apo(a) kringle number. Thus, a 15-kringle apo(a) separated from Lp(a) and a 34-kringle r-apo(a) displayed an affinity for fibrin that was higher than that in the corresponding particles (Kd 2.5 versus 10.5 nmol/L and Kd 3.8 versus 541 nmol/L, respectively). However, fibrin-binding specificity of the r-apo(a) preparations and the Lp(a) particles was efficiently neutralized (IC50 0.07 and 4 nmol/L) by a monoclonal antibody directed against the lysine-binding function of kringle IV-10. Conclusions—Our data indicate that fibrin binding is an intrinsic property of apo(a) modulated by the composite structure of the Lp(a) particle.","PeriodicalId":8418,"journal":{"name":"Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology: Journal of the American Heart Association","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88248294","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}
