C/EBP transcription factors regulate NADPH oxidase in human aortic smooth muscle cells

Abstract: In atherosclerosis, oxidative stress-induced vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) dysfunction is partially mediated by up-regulated NADPH oxidase (Nox); the mechanisms of enzyme regulation are not entirely defined. CCAAT/enhancer-binding proteins (C/EBP) regulate cellular proliferation and differentiation, and the expression of many inflammatory and immune genes. We aimed at elucidating the role of C/EBP in the regulation of Nox in SMCs exposed to pro-inflammatory conditions. Human aortic SMCs were treated with… Show more

“…ROS can also impair telomerase activity, with telomere attrition being a predictive marker for cardiovascular dysfunction, metabolic syndrome and other age- and DOHaD-related pathologies (Hallows, et al 2012). It is therefore possible that an in increase in ROS levels is the initial stimulus that reprograms the ART embryo, which employs transcription factors like NFE2L2, CEBPs (Manea, et al 2014), and p53 to exert acute transcriptional responses and subsequent chromatin remodeling that persists throughout development, leading to different cell type-contextual expression patterns.…”

“…NOX5δ, NOX5ε and Noxζ do not seem to produce appreciable amounts of O 2 − , and their functional significance is unclear. Epigenetic factors, including overexpression of histone deacetylase 2, cause upregulation of the NOX5 gene promotor activity in vascular smooth muscle cells (Manea, Todirita, Raicu, & Manea, ).…”
