Abstract
Neoatherosclerosis (NA) within stents has become an important clinical problem after coronary artery stent implantation. In-stent restenosis and in-stent thrombosis are the two major complications following coronary stent placement and seriously affect patient prognosis. As the common pathological basis of these two complications, NA plaques, unlike native atherosclerotic plaques, often grow around residual oxidized lipids and stent struts. The main components are foam cells formed by vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) engulfing oxidized lipids at lipid residue sites. Current research mainly focuses on optical coherence tomography (OCT) and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), but the specific pathogenesis of NA is still unclear. A thorough understanding of the pathogenesis and pathological features of NA provides a theoretical basis for clinical treatment. This article reviews the previous research of our research group and the current situation of domestic and foreign research.

The Effect of High-Salt Diet on Oxidative Stress Production and Vascular Function in Tff3-/-/C57BL/6N Knockout and Wild Type (C57BL/6N) Mice. J Vasc Res 2024:1-11. [PMID: 39074455 DOI: 10.1159/000539614] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2023] [Accepted: 05/25/2024] [Indexed: 07/31/2024] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION It is well documented that high-salt (HS) diet increases systemic and vascular oxidative stress in various animal models and in humans, leading to impairment of vascular reactivity. The present study examined the interaction of genotype and HS diet intake and the potential effects of oxidative stress - antioxidative system balance on the flow-induced dilation (FID) in pressurized carotid arteries of normotensive Tff3-/-/C57BL/6N knockout mice and their wild-type (WT) controls. METHODS Male, ten-week-old transgenic Tff3-/-/C57BL/6N (Tff3-/-) knockout mice and WT/C57BL/6N (WT) (parental strain) healthy mice were divided in LS (0.4% NaCl in rodent chow) and HS (4% NaCl in rodent chow fed for 1 week) groups. Additionally, LS and HS groups were treated with 1 mmol/L 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl (TEMPOL) dissolved in the drinking water. After anesthesia with ketamine chloride (100 mg/kg) and midazolam (5 mg/kg), blood pressure was measured, carotid arteries and aortas were isolated, and blood samples were collected. RESULTS FID was decreased in WT_HS mice and restored by superoxide scavenger TEMPOL in vivo. On the other hand, attenuated FID of Tff3-/- mice was not further affected by HS diet or TEMPOL in vivo treatment. Vascular superoxide/reactive oxygen species levels were increased with HS diet in both strains and restored by TEMPOL. HS upregulated glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPx1) gene expression in WT_HS and Tff3-/-_HS mice, while GPx activity was significantly decreased only in WT_HS group. Systemic (serum) markers of oxidative stress (oxLDL and AOPP) and arterial blood pressure were similar among groups. CONCLUSION HS diet increases vascular oxidative stress and impairs vasodilation in WT mice. Tff3 gene deficiency attenuates vasodilation per se, without further effects of HS intake. This can be attributed to vascular upregulation of antioxidative enzyme GPx1 in Tff3-/-/C57BL/6N mice conferring protection from oxidative stress.

Overexpression of LOX-1 in hepatocytes protects vascular smooth muscle cells from phenotype transformation and wire injury induced carotid neoatherosclerosis through ALOX15. Biochim Biophys Acta Mol Basis Dis 2023; 1869:166805.

Abstract
Neoatherosclerosis (NA), the main pathological basis of late stent failure, is the main limitation of interventional therapy. However, the specific pathogenesis and treatment remain unclear. In vivo, NA model was established by carotid wire injury and high-fat feeding in ApoE-/- mice. Oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1/lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (OLR1/LOX-1), a specific receptor for oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL), was specifically ectopically overexpressed in hepatocytes by portal vein injection of adeno-associated serotype 8 (AAV8)-thyroid binding globulin (TBG)-Olr1 and the protective effect against NA was examined. In vitro, LOX-1 was overexpressed on HHL5 using lentivirus (LV)-OLR1 and the vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs)-HHL5 indirect co-culture system was established to examine its protective effect on VSMCs and the molecular mechanism. Functionally, we found that specific ectopic overexpression of LOX-1 by hepatocytes competitively engulfed and metabolized ox-LDL, alleviating its resulting phenotypic transformation of VSMCs including migration, downregulation of contractile shape markers (smooth muscle α-actin (SMαA) and smooth muscle-22α (SM22α)), and upregulation of proliferative/migratory shape markers (osteopontin (OPN) and Vimentin) as well as foaminess and apoptosis, thereby alleviating NA, which independent of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) lowering treatment (evolocumab, a monoclonal antibody to proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9)). Mechanistically, we found that overexpression of LOX-1 in hepatocytes competitively engulfed and metabolized ox-LDL through upregulation of arachidonate-15-lipoxygenase (ALOX15), which further upregulated scavenger receptor class B type I (SRBI) and ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1). In conclusion, the overexpression of LOX-1 in liver protects VSMCs from phenotypic transformation and wire injury induced carotid neoatherosclerosis through ALOX15.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis (AS) is a vascular disease caused by chronic inflammation and lipids that is the main cause of myocardial infarction, stroke and other cardiovascular diseases. Atherosclerosis is often difficult to detect in its early stages due to the absence of clinically significant vascular stenosis. This is not conducive to early intervention or treatment of the disease. Over the past decade, researchers have developed various imaging methods for the detection and imaging of atherosclerosis. At the same time, more and more biomarkers are being found that can be used as targets for detecting atherosclerosis. Therefore, the development of a variety of imaging methods and a variety of targeted imaging probes is an important project to achieve early assessment and treatment of atherosclerosis. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the optical probes used to detect and target atherosclerosis imaging in recent years, and describes the current challenges and future development directions.

Zhilong Huoxue Tongyu Capsule Alleviated the Pyroptosis of Vascular Endothelial Cells Induced by ox-LDL through miR-30b-5p/NLRP3. EVIDENCE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE 2022; 2022:3981350. [PMID: 35126599 PMCID: PMC8813228 DOI: 10.1155/2022/3981350] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2021] [Revised: 11/22/2021] [Accepted: 11/23/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Background Our previous studies have demonstrated a protective role of Zhilong Huoxue Tongyu capsule in atherosclerosis (AS); however, the molecular mechanisms are unclear. Methods Human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAECs) were induced with oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) to obtain cellular AS models. Then, the medicated serum of Zhilong Huoxue Tongyu capsule was obtained and used for treatment with ox-LDL-induced HCAECs. The cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay. Besides, the binding between miR-30b-5p and NLRP3 was determined by the dual-luciferase reporter gene system assay. Furthermore, ox-LDL-induced HCAECs were transfected with miR-30b-5p mimic or miR-30b-5p inhibitor. The pyroptosis of HCAECs was assessed by flow cytometry, LDH content detection, and qRT-PCR assays. Results 10% medicated serum of Zhilong Huoxue Tongyu capsule was the maximum nontoxic concentration and it was used in subsequent assays. The rate of pyroptosis, LDH content, and the mRNA expression level of pyroptosis-related genes including NLRP3, ASC, Caspase 1, IL-1β, and IL-18 were prominently enhanced after HCAECs were induced by ox-LDL, which were markedly rescued with medicated serum of Zhilong Huoxue Tongyu capsule. In addition, the medicated serum of Zhilong Huoxue Tongyu capsule significantly enhanced the ox-LDL-induced reduction of miR-30b-5p level. NLRP3 could bind to miR-30b-5p and was negatively corrected with miR-30b-5p. Moreover, all the rates of pyroptosis, LDH content, and the mRNA expression levels of pyroptosis-related genes including NLRP3, ASC, Caspase 1, IL-1β, and IL-18 were further observably decreased after ox-LDL-induced HCAECs treated with medicated serum were transfected with miR-30b-5p mimic, while these were significantly rescued with transfection of miR-30b-5p inhibitor. Conclusion Zhilong Huoxue Tongyu capsule alleviated the pyroptosis of vascular endothelial cells induced by ox-LDL through miR-30b-5p/NLRP3.
