PDGF-Induced Migration of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells Is Inhibited by Heme Oxygenase-1 Via VEGFR2 Upregulation and Subsequent Assembly of Inactive VEGFR2/PDGFRβ Heterodimers

Abstract: Primary human aorta-derived VSMC (Lonza, Breda, NL) were cultured on gelatin-coated plates at 37°C/5% CO 2 in SmGM-2 medium Objective-In cardiovascular regulation, heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) activity has been shown to inhibit vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation by promoting cell cycle arrest at the G1/S phase. However, the effect of HO-1 on VSMC migration remains unclear. We aim to elucidate the mechanism by which HO-1 regulates PDGFBB-induced VSMC migration. Methods and Results-Transduction of HO-1 … Show more

“…Our data do not support association with blood vessel density, or small vessel disease. Within experimental systems, the potent tyrosine kinase-linked VEGFR2 has functional effects on migration, differentiation state and functional phenotype of VSMC [7,8,22,36,37,43]. In human aortic VSMC cultures, and in adult mouse retina, VEGFR2 had a potent anti-migratory effect, mediated by VEGFR2-PDGFRβ receptor complexes [8].…”
