The roles of mechanotransduction, vascular wall cells, and blood cells in atheroma induction

Abstract: Background This paper describes and analyzes the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying atherosclerosis development. In particular, the roles of monocytes/macrophages, smooth muscle cells, and vascular endothelium in the formation of stable/unstable atheromatous plaques, and the contributions of some processes to atheroma formation. Methods and results In this study we analyzed endothelium: function, dysfunction, and involvement into atherogenesis; cell proteins mediating mechanotransduction; proatheroge… Show more

“…These results confirm the data obtained from the optical stretcher [Ekpenyong et al., ]. This process, in which a physical force elicits a functional response, is an example of mechanotransduction [Ekpenyong et al., ; Mennens et al., ; Novikova et al., ].…”

“…[107,108] In combination with nanomaterial-based CAs, the utilization of MR imaging allows for the enhanced visualization of atherosclerotic plaques, facilitating their diagnostic assessment by augmenting r 1 longitudinal relaxation and r 2 transverse relaxation. [109][110][111][112][113] For example, Yamakoshi et al developed A) Schematic illustration of the surface hydrolysis-designed AuNPs-zwit-glucose for precise detection of macrophages and targeting infarcted lesions. Reproduced with permission.…”

“…[ 107,108 ] In combination with nanomaterial‐based CAs, the utilization of MR imaging allows for the enhanced visualization of atherosclerotic plaques, facilitating their diagnostic assessment by augmenting r 1 longitudinal relaxation and r 2 transverse relaxation. [ 109–113 ] For example, Yamakoshi et al. developed LDL‐mimetic lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) with apolipoprotein‐mimetic peptide (P) and Gd(III)‐chelate using the amide‐forming potassium acyltrifluoroborate (KAT) ligation reaction.…”

“…Inflammatory cytokines TNF‐α and IL‐1 trigger an increase in vSMC ICAM‐1, IL‐6, and MMPs. For example, the increase of ICAM‐1 can improve the monocyte/macrophage and T‐cell adhesion to cells, converting vSMCs from a contractile phenotype to their synthetic phenotype, and spurring atherosclerotic buildup/plaques (Novikova et al, 2019).…”
