Smooth muscle cells (SMC) from prosthetic vascular grafts constitutively secrete higher levels of platelet-derived growth factor-AA (PDGF-AA) than aortic SMC. Lipid oxidation products accumulate in grafts and may stimulate PDGF production. The effect of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) on PDGF-AA secretion by aortic and graft SMC was compared. SMC isolated from canine thoracic aorta or Dacron thoracoabdominal grafts ( n = 10) were incubated with native LDL or oxLDL (0–400 μg/ml) for 72 h. PDGF-AA in the conditioned medium was measured with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. OxLDL increased PDGF-AA production by graft SMC from 78 ± 2 to 256 ± 16 pg PDGF/μg DNA and aortic SMC from 21 ± 1 to 40 ± 2 pg PDGF/μg DNA. Native LDL had no effect. N-acetylcysteine inhibited oxLDL-induced PDGF increase. Both superoxide and H2O2 stimulated PDGF secretion by graft SMC had little effect on aortic SMC. Our results suggest that PDGF production by graft (synthetic) SMC is more sensitive to stimulation by oxidative stress than aortic (contractile) SMC. Lipid oxidation products that accumulate in prosthetic vascular grafts can cause an oxidative stress, which stimulates PDGF production by graft SMC. PDGF can induce migration of aortic SMC onto the graft, contributing to the development of intimal hyperplasia.

Smooth muscle cells (SMCs) from prosthetic vascular grafts constitutively secrete higher levels of collagen than aortic SMCs. Lipid oxidation products accumulate in grafts, and we postulated that they stimulate SMC production of collagen. The effect of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) on type I collagen secretion by aortic and graft SMCs was compared. SMCs isolated from the canine thoracic aorta or Dacron thoracoabdominal grafts ( n = 10) were incubated with native LDL or oxLDL (0–400 μg cholesterol/ml) for 72 h. Type I collagen in the conditioned medium was measured by ELISA. OxLDL increased collagen production by graft SMCs from 4.1 ± 0.3 to 11.0 ± 0.4 ng/μg DNA and by aortic SMCs from 2.3 ± 0.1 to 3.5 ± 0.2 ng/μg DNA. Native LDL had little effect. LY-83583, a superoxide generator, stimulated a dramatic increase in collagen secretion by graft SMCs and a smaller but significant elevation by aortic SMCs. OxLDL has been shown to increase PDGF production by graft SMCs, and PDGF can stimulate collagen production. Anti-PDGF antibody inhibited the increase in collagen production by graft SMCs that was stimulated by oxLDL, implicating PDGF as one mechanism of oxLDL-induced collagen production. Lipid oxidation products that accumulate in prosthetic vascular grafts can cause an oxidative stress that stimulates PDGF production by graft SMCs that in turn stimulates collagen production, contributing to the progression of intimal hyperplasia.

Formation of filamentous F-actin drives many cellular processes, including phagocytosis and cell spreading. We have recently reported that mouse macrophage 12/15-lipoxygenase (12/15-LO) activity promotes F-actin formation in filopodia during phagocytosis of apoptotic cells. Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (OxLDL) also stimulates robust F-actin formation and spreading of macrophages. However, unlike apoptotic cells, OxLDL did not cause specific translocation of 12/15-LO to the cell membrane, neither in macrophages nor in GFP-15LO–transfected COS-7 cells. Moreover, inhibition of 12/15-LO activity in macrophages by a specific inhibitor or by 12/15-LO gene disruption did not affect OxLDL-induced actin polymerization. Among LDL modifications modeling OxLDL, LDL modified by incubation with 15LO-overexpressing fibroblasts was as active in eliciting F-actin response as was OxLDL. This LDL modification is well known to produce minimally modified LDL (mmLDL), which is bioactive and carries lipid oxidation products similar to those produced by 12/15-LO catalysis. MmLDL activated phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), and PI3K inhibitors abolished mmLDL-induced macrophage spreading. We hypothesize that OxLDL and mmLDL may contribute oxidized lipids to the macrophage cell membrane and thereby mimic intracellular 12/15-LO activity, which leads to uncontrolled actin polymerization and dramatic cytoskeletal changes in macrophages.

Abstract Background Atherosclerosis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disorder. The aim of our study was to explore the role of circular RNA (circRNA) transmembrane 7 superfamily member 3 (circTM7SF3) in AS progression. Methods Experiments were conducted using oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL)-induced THP-1-derived macrophages and differentiated human monocyte-derived macrophages (hMDMs). Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of circTM7SF3, its linear form TM7SF3, microRNA-206 (miR-206) and aspartyl (asparaginyl) β-hydroxylase (ASPH) messenger RNA (mRNA). Cell viability and apoptosis were examined by 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and flow cytometry. Cell inflammation was analyzed by measuring the production of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and interleukin 6 (IL-6) using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits. Cell oxidative stress was assessed through analyzing the levels of oxidative stress markers using their corresponding commercial kits. Dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA-pull down assay were used to confirm the interaction between miR-206 and circTM7SF3 or ASPH. The protein level of ASPH was examined by Western blot assay. Results CircTM7SF3 level was markedly increased in the serum samples of AS patients and ox-LDL-induced THP-1-derived macrophages compared with their matching counterparts. ox-LDL induced-damage in THP-1 cells was partly attenuated by the interference of circTM7SF3. MiR-206 was a downstream molecular target of circTM7SF3. Si-circTM7SF3-mediated effects in ox-LDL-induced THP-1-derived macrophages were partly ameliorated by the addition of anti-miR-206. MiR-206 directly interacted with ASPH mRNA. CircTM7SF3 silencing reduced the expression of ASPH partly through up-regulating miR-206 in THP-1-derived macrophages. ASPH overexpression partly counteracted the effects induced by miR-206 overexpression in ox-LDL-induced THP-1-derived macrophages. Conclusion CircTM7SF3 contributed to ox-LDL-induced injury in AS cell model through up-regulating the expression of ASPH via targeting miR-206.

Increased Activity

Exposure of endothelial cells to oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) leads to diverse cellular effects, including induction of the intracellular antioxidant GSH. It is not known whether lipid-or protein-derived oxidation products cause GSH induction and whether this involves increased activity of the key enzyme in its synthesis, glutamate—cysteine ligase (GCL). Furthermore, the effect of oxLDL exposure on the cell's ability to combat oxidative stress has not been previously examined. In the present study we found that, in bovine aortic endothelial cells, LDL or 1-palmitoyl-2-arachidonyl phosphatidylcholine oxidized by different reactive oxygen and nitrogen species induced GSH synthesis. However, prevention of GSH synthesis during exposure to oxLDL caused extensive cell death. The mediator causing GSH induction was shown to be a polar lipid and resulted in the increased activity of GCL as well as increased protein levels of the regulatory subunit of GCL. Pretreatment with both oxLDL and the polar lipid subfraction of the oxLDL protected cells against the toxicity of 2,3-dimethoxynaphthoquinone (DMNQ), a superoxide- and H2O2-forming compound. The potential of a low level of lipid peroxidation products to initiate cytoprotective pathways are discussed.

Background. Pro- and antiatherogenic properties of oxidised low density lipoprotein (Ox-LDL) are responsible for different chronic diseases including diabetes and cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The constant attack on the body from oxidative stress makes the quantification of various oxidation products necessary. In this study, the oxidative stress causing the structural and chemical changes occurring in the LDL molecule is comprehensively done. Moreover, the prevalence of the autoantibodies against the oxidised LDL is also determined. Methods. Our study made an attempt to see the effect of Ox-LDL as an enhancer of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) coupled with CVD. Primarily, we detected the oxidation of LDL with different concentration of Fenton reaction. The biochemical parameters were assessed for the changes occurring in the LDL molecule. In a clinical set up, 20 sera samples were taken from patients who are healthy, 30 from those with diabetes, 20 from those with CVD, and 30 from diabetes with CVD patients. Results. In biochemical assays there were markedly increased TBARS, carbonyl, and HMF content in Ox-LDL as compared to native LDL. The prevalence of autoantibodies against the T2DM was recorded to be 36%, while for CVD it was recorded to be 29%. However, it was found that 50% of the sera samples showed autoantibodies against oxidized LDL in the sera of T2DM with CVD complications as compared to the native analogue. Conclusion. There is significant change in the LDL molecule as revealed by various physicochemical analysis. The change in the LDL macromolecule as a result of oxidation triggered the development of the autoantibodies against it.

Chronic hypoxia is one of the main causes of pulmonary hypertension (PH) associated with ROS production. Lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor (LOX)-1 is known to be an endothelial receptor of oxidized low-density lipoprotein, which is assumed to play a role in the initiation of ROS generation. We investigated the role of LOX-1 and ROS generation in PH and vascular remodeling in LOX-1 transgenic (TG) mice. We maintained 8- to 10-wk-old male LOX-1 TG mice and wild-type (WT) mice in normoxia (room air) or hypoxia (10% O2 chambers) for 3 wk. Right ventricular (RV) systolic pressure (RVSP) was comparable between the two groups under normoxic conditions; however, chronic hypoxia significantly increased RVSP and RV hypertrophy in LOX-1 TG mice compared with WT mice. Medial wall thickness of the pulmonary arteries was significantly greater in LOX-1 TG mice than in WT mice. Furthermore, hypoxia enhanced ROS production and nitrotyrosine expression in LOX-1 TG mice, supporting the observed pathological changes. Administration of the NADPH oxidase inhibitor apocynin caused a significant reduction in PH and vascular remodeling in LOX-1 TG mice. Our results suggest that LOX-1-ROS generation induces the development and progression of PH.

Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (Ox-LDL) can induce cardiac hypertrophy, but the mechanism is still unclear. Here we elucidate the role of angiotensin II (AngII) receptor (AT1-R) in Ox-LDL-induced cardiomycyte hypertrophy. Inhibition of Ox-LDL receptor LOX-1 and AT1-R rather than AngII abolished Ox-LDL-induced hypertrophic responses. Similar results were obtained from the heart of mice lacking endogenous Ang II and their cardiomyocytes. Ox-LDL but not AngII induced binding of LOX-1 to AT1-R, and the inhibition of LOX-1 or AT1-R rather than AngII abolished the association of these two receptors. Ox-LDL-induced ERKs phosphorylation in LOX-1 and AT1-R-overexpression cells and the binding of both receptors were suppressed by the mutants of LOX-1 (Lys266Ala/Lys267Ala) or AT1-R (Glu257Ala), however, the AT1-R mutant lacking Gq protein-coupling ability only abolished the ERKs phosphorylation. The phosphorylation of ERKs induced by Ox-LDL in LOX-1 and AT1-R-overexpression cells was abrogated by Gq protein inhibitor but not by Jak2, Rac1 and RhoA inhibitors. Therefore, the direct interaction between LOX-1 and AT1-R and the downstream Gq protein activation are important mechanisms for Ox-LDL- but not AngII-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy

Hypothesis: Oxidized low density lipoprotein (Ox-LDL) has properties that profoundly affect cardiovascular function. We hypothesized that Ox-LDL is likely to be formed in the left ventricular blood (LVB) when the heart is subjected to ischemic conditions and the ejection fraction (EF) is low. We speculated whether “stagnation” of LDL in the LV could result in increased formation of Ox-LDL. Objective: We studied whether there is an increased level of Ox-LDL in the LVB as opposed to peripheral blood (PB), and whether its presence correlated with the EF. Also we examined whether a higher level of Ox-LDL negatively correlated with the activity of paraoxonase 1 (PON 1). Methods: Following the Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval, 62 HF patients were enrolled in the study. All patients underwent pre-operative transthoracic echocardiographic assessment of ventricular function. Left ventricular ejection fractions were determined using the Simpsons bi-plane technique. 2ml of LVB and 5ml of PB samples were taken before coronary artery bypass surgery, or a surgery with replacement of mitral, aortic or tricuspid valve. Blood level of Ox-LDL was determined by ELISA (Mercodia), and PON 1 activity was determined by the rate of conversion of its substrate p-nitrophenyl acetate into p-nitrophenol. Results: The result showed significant increase in Ox-LDL in LVB as compared to PB (p=0.032) in HF subjects even when EF was near normal. There was no significant increase in subjects with lower EF. In contrast, Ox-LDL levels increased in the PB of subjects with lower EF and reached those of LVB. We also noticed that there was a statistically significant negative correlation between EF and Ox-LDL levels in both LVB and PB (p < 0.05). The activity of PON1, an antioxidant enzyme that protects LDL from oxidation showed decreased levels both in LV blood as well as in PB with decreased EF. It was observed that there was a statistically significant difference in PON1 levels between LV and PB of subjects having EF>60% (p = 0.03). Conclusions: In conclusion the results suggest that there might be oxidative stress associated with LVB even when the EF is not compromised. In contrast, the increase in PB Ox-LDL with poor EF might suggest that the low blood flow to peripheral tissues and end organs also might contribute to increased oxidative stress. The results also might suggest that persistent oxidative stress could have affected the clearance mechanisms of Ox-LDL.
