Nitric oxide triggers enhanced induction of vascular endothelial growth factor expression in cultured keratinocytes (HaCaT) and during cutaneous wound repair

Abstract

Recently, we demonstrated a large induction of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) during cutaneous wound repair. In this study, we investigated the role of nitric oxide (NO) for the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which represents the most important angiogenic factor during the proliferative phase of skin repair. Since keratinocytes are the major source of VEGF production during this process, we used cultured keratinocytes (HaCaT cell line) as an in vitro model to investigate NO action on growth factor‐ and cytokine‐stimulated VEGF expression. Exogenously added NO enhanced transforming growth factor‐β1‐, keratinocyte growth factor‐, interleukin‐1β‐, tumor necrosis factor‐α‐, and interferon‐γ‐induced VEGF mRNA and protein synthesis in keratinocytes. We could demonstrate that high‐level expression of cytokine‐induced VEGF mRNA in keratinocytes is dependent on endogenously produced NO, as inhibition of the coinduced iNOS by N G ‐monomethyl‐L‐arginine (L‐NMMA) markedly decreased cytokine‐triggered VEGF mRNA levels in the cells. We also established an in vivo model in mice to investigate the role of NO during wound healing. During excisional wound repair, mice were treated with L‐N 6 ‐(1‐iminoethyl)lysine (L‐NIL), a selective inhibitor of iNOS enzymatic activity. Compared to control mice, L‐NIL‐treated animals were characterized by markedly reduced VEGF mRNA levels during the inflammatory phase of repair. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated reduced VEGF protein expression and a completely disorganized pattern of VEGF‐expressing keratinocytes within the hyperproliferative epithelium at the wound edge in L‐NIL‐treated mice. We demonstrate that triggering of VEGF expression is a crucial molecular mechanism underlying NO function during wound healing.— Frank, S., Stallmeyer, B., Kämpfer, H., Kolb, N., Pfeilschifter, J.

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.
