Atorvastatin's Therapeutic Potential in Atherosclerosis: Inhibiting TGF-β-Induced Proteoglycan Glycosaminoglycan Chain Elongation through ROS-ERK1/2-Smad2L Signaling Pathway Modulation in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells.
Objective: According to the response-to-retention hypothesis, the inception of atherosclerosis is attributed to the deposition and retention of lipoprotein in the arterial intima, facilitated by altered proteoglycans with hyperelongated glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains. Recent studies have elucidated a signaling pathway whereby transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) promotes the expression of genes linked to proteoglycan GAG chain elongation (CHSY1 and CHST11) via reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the downstream phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and Smad2L. Atorvastatin is known to exhibit pleiotropic effects, including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. The purpose of the present research was to ascertain the influence of atorvastatin on TGF-β-stimulated expression of CHSY1 and CHST11 and associated signaling pathways using an in vitro model.
Materials and methods: In this experimental study, vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) were pre-incubated with atorvastatin (0.1-10 μM) prior to being stimulated with TGF-β (2 ng/ml). The experiment aimed to evaluate the phosphorylation levels of Smad2C, Smad2L, ERK1/2, the NOX p47phox subunit, ROS production, and the mRNA expression of CHST11 and CHSY1.
Results: Our research results indicated that atorvastatin inhibited TGF-β-stimulated CHSY1 and CHST11 mRNA expression. Further experiments showed that atorvastatin diminished TGF-β-stimulated ROS production and weakened TGF-β-stimulated phosphorylation of p47phox, ERK1/2, and Smad2L; however, we observed no effect on the TGF-β- Smad2C pathway.
Conclusion: These data suggest that atorvastatin demonstrates anti-atherogenic properties through the modulation of the ROS-ERK1/2-Smad2L signaling pathway. This provides valuable insight into the potential mechanisms by which atorvastatin exerts its pleiotropic effects against atherosclerosis.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
