Proatherosclerotic Mechanisms Involving Protein Kinase C in Diabetes and Insulin Resistance

Abstract

In diabetes and insulin resistance, activation of protein kinase C (PKC) in vascular cells may be a key link between elevated plasma and tissue concentrations of glucose and nonesterified fatty acids and abnormal vascular cell signaling. Initial studies of PKC activation in diabetes focused on microvascular complications, but increasing evidence supports that PKC plays a role in several mechanisms promoting atherosclerosis. This review explains how PKC is thought to be activated in diabetes and insulin resistance through de novo synthesis of diacylglycerol. Furthermore, the review summarizes studies that implicate PKC in promoting proatherogenic mechanisms or inhibiting antiatherogenic mechanisms, including studies of endothelial dysfunction; gene induction and activation of vascular NAD(P)H oxidase; endothelial nitric oxide synthase expression and function; endothelin-1 expression; growth, migration, and apoptosis of vascular smooth muscle cells; induction of adhesion molecules; and oxidized low-density lipoprotein uptake by monocyte-derived macrophages.

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.
