Abstract

Restenosis remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality after coronary angioplasty. Injury-induced inflammation, thrombosis, smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferation, and neointimal formation contribute to restenosis. These events are linked to circulating glucose-derived advanced gycation endproducts (AGE), known to promote cell proliferation, lipid glycoxidation and oxidant stress. This study evaluates the association between dietary AGE content and neointimal formation after arterial injury in genetically hypercholesterolemic mice. Male, 12-week-old, apolipoprotein E-deficient (apoE(-/-)) mice were randomly assigned to receive either a high AGE diet (HAD; AGE=15000 U/mg), or a similar diet with ten-fold lower AGE (LAD; AGE=1500 U/mg). These mice underwent femoral artery injury 1 week later, and were maintained on their diets for an additional 4 weeks. At 4 weeks after injury, significant decrease in neointimal formation was noted in LAD-fed mice. Neointimal area, intima/media ratio, and stenotic luminal area (LA) were less pronounced in the LAD group than the HAD group (P<0.05). These quantitative differences were associated with a marked reduction ( approximately 56%) of macrophages in the neointimal lesions, as well as an obvious reduction of SMC content of LAD-fed mice. The reduction of neointimal formation in the LAD mice correlated with a approximately 40% decrease in circulating AGE levels (P<0.0005). Immunohistochemistry also showed a reduced ( approximately 1.5-fold) deposition of AGE in the endothelia, SMC, and macrophages in neointimal lesions of LAD-fed mice. These results represent the first evidence in vivo for a causal relationship between dietary AGE and the vessel wall response to acute injury, suggesting a significant potential for dietary AGE restriction in the prevention of restenosis after angioplasty.

  • Cytokine-induced SOCS1 and SOCS3 prevent tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS proteins by direct interference or ubiquitylation/degradation.

    “Another mechanism involves cytokine-induced suppressor of cytokine signalling 1 and 3, which also prevent tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS proteins, by direct interference, or ubiquitylation and subsequent degradation (130,131) .”

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.
