microRNA-221 regulates high glucose-induced endothelial dysfunction
Open accessAbstract
Persistent hyperglycemia in diabetes causes endothelial cell dysfunction. Exposure to high levels of glucose, which mimics hyperglycemia, induced expression of microRNA 221 (miR-221) but reduced expression of c-kit, the receptor for stem cell factor in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). In addition, high glucose treatment impaired endothelial cell migration. Incubation with the antisense miR-221 oligonucleotide AMO-221 reduced expression of miR-221 and restored c-kit protein expression in HUVECs treated with high levels of glucose. Furthermore, AMO-221 treatment abolished the inhibitory effect of high glucose exposure on HUVECs transmigration. Thus, under hyperglycemic conditions, miR-221 is induced in HUVECs, which consequently triggers inhibition of c-kit and impairment of HUVECs migration. These findings suggest that manipulation of the miR-221-c-kit pathway may offer a novel strategy for treatment of vascular dysfunction in diabetic patients.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
