Abstract —Vascular endothelial cell function responds to

steady laminar shear stress;however,the underlying mech-anisms are not fully elucidated.In the present study,we examined the effect of steady laminar shear stress on vascular endothelial cell autophagy and endothelial cell nitric oxide synthase (eNOS)and endothelin-1(ET-1)expression using an ex vivo perfusion system.Human vascular endothelial cells and common arteries of New Zealand rabbits were pretreated with or without rapamycin or 3-MA for 30min.These were then placed in an ex vivo cell perfusion system or an ex vivo organ perfusion system under static conditions (0dynes/cm 2)or steady laminar shear stress (5or 15dynes/cm 2)for 1h.In both ex vivo perfusion vascular endothelial cells and vascular vessel segment,steady laminar shear stress promoted autophagy and eNOS expression and inhibited https://www.wendangku.net/doc/a34316814.html,pared with steady laminar shear stress treatment alone,the pretreatment of autophagy inducer rapamycin obviously strengthened the expression of eNOS and decreased the expression of ET-1in both the 5and 15dynes/cm 2treatment groups.Moreover,when pretreated with the autophagy inhibitor 3-MA,the eNOS expression was obviously inhibited and the ET-1expression was reversed.These ?ndings demonstrate that autophagy is upregulated under steady laminar shear stress,improving endothelial cell maintenance of vascular tone function.Keywords —Autophagy,Steady laminar shear stress,Endo-thelial cells,Endothelial nitric oxide synthase,Endothelin-1.

INTRODUCTION

Atherosclerosis is the leading cause of death in the developed world and the second cause in the devel-oping world.The endothelium plays a crucial role in controlling vascular tone and homeostasis via the re-lease of vasoactive factors.Endothelium dysfunction is the initiation step in atherosclerotic lesion formation and progression.Vascular endothelium is directly ex-posed to blood ?ow and senses blood ?ow shear stress,the frictional force acting on the endothelial cell sur-face as a result of blood ?ow.Previous studies have shown that vascular endothelium responds not only to shear stress but also to ?ow pattern.6,14,19,28,29Nonla-minar or disturbed blood ?ow results in inhibition of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS)production,vasodilatation,and endothelial cell repair.7,8Laminar shear stress promotes endothelial cell survival and quiescence,alignment with the direction of ?ow,and secretion of vasodilation and anticoagulation sub-stances.10Thus,laminar shear stress is generally con-sidered to play an important role in resistance to atherogenesis.However,the underlying mechanisms are not well understood.Further research on the response of vascular endothelium to laminar shear stress may contribute to prevent atherosclerosis.

Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved process involved in removing misfolded or aggregated proteins,clearing damaged organelles,and eliminating intracel-lular pathogens.Most atherosclerotic plaque cells have autophagic marks,and autophagy dysfunction increases with atherosclerotic plaque progression.

Blocking macrophage autophagy promotes plaque necrosis in advanced atherosclerosis.17Kim et al.13 demonstrated that epigallocatechin gallate assists in prevention of cardiovascular disease by contributing to the regulation of ectopic lipid accumulation in aortic endothelial cells(ECs)via facilitated autophagic?ux. Our previous works showed that increased EC autoph-agy induced by oxidized low density lipoprotein(ox-LDL)antagonized EC apoptosis and partly neutralized the effect of increased EC monolayer permeability mediated by the downregulation of VE-cadherin.26 In the present study,we hypothesized that steady laminar shear stress upregulates vascular endothelial cell autophagy to improve its function.Thus,we investigated the e?ect of steady laminar shear stress on vascular endothelial cell autophagy and the e?ect of autophagy intervention on endothelial cell eNOS and ET-1expression under steady laminar shear stress.We observed that vascular endothelial cell autophagy was upregulated when exposed to steady laminar shear stress and endothelial cell maintenance of vascular tone function was strengthened by promotion of autophagy and attenuated by blocking of autophagy.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

Materials

New Zealand rabbits, 1.9–2.5kg in weight,were purchased from the animal center of the University of South China.Dulbecco’s modi?ed Eagle’s medium (DMEM)containing trypsin,bovine serum albumin (BSA),rapamycin,and3-Methyladenine(3-MA)was obtained from Sigma-Aldrich(St.Louis,MO).Reve-rAid TM First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit was pur-chased from Invitrogen(Carlsbad,USA).Monoclonal rabbit antibodies against p62,beclin1,microtubule-associated protein1light chain3(LC3),eNOS,ET-1, and b-actin were obtained from Santa Cruz Biotech-nology(Santa Cruz,CA).

Fluid Shear Stress Experiments

A human umbilical vascular endothelial cell line (HUVEC)was obtained from the China Center for Type Culture Collection and passages40–80were used in this study.Rabbit bilateral common carotids were dissected free from the surrounding connective tissue and placed in a chamber?lled with DMEM containing10%fetal bovine serum,100l g/mL streptomycin and100U/mL penicillin.HUVECs(3.09105cells/mL)were seeded on a precoated with?bronectin glass slide to grow con?uence.ECs monolayer or vessel segments were connected to a parallel plate?ow chamber system (Figs.1a and1b).The perfusion culture medium con-sisted of serum-free DMEM containing antibiotics (100IU/L penicillin,100mg/L streptomycin).In addi-tion,5%dextran(molecular weight,70,000)was added to the culture medium to confer physiological?uid vis-cosity.Steady laminar?ow was controlled by the?ow rate over the endothelial monolayer.The shear stress (s w)acting on the cultured endothelial cell monolayer was determined by s w=6l Q/bh2,where l is?uid vis-cosity,Q is the?ow rate,b is the chamber width,and h is the?ow path height.25In conditions of steady laminar ?ow,shear stress(s w)acting on vessel endothelium is determined by s w=32l Q/p d3,where l is?uid viscos-ity,Q is?ow rate,and d is vessel diameter.30After pre-treatment with rapamycin or3-MA for30min,cultured vascular endothelial cells and vessel segments were exposures to shear stress of0,5or15dynes/cm2for1h. Then,vessel segments were washed with cold PBS. Subsequently,both of the vessel segment ends were closed and0.1%collagenase was injected.After incu-bated at37°C for15min,the vessel was massaged gently and endothelial cells were collected by centrifu-gation.The animal experimental protocols were ap-proved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee of the University of South China.

Real-Time Quantitative PCR

Total RNA was isolated according to the manufac-turer’s instructions(TRIzol reagent;Invitrogen).Total RNA(2l g)was reverse transcribed using a TaqMan Reverse Transcription Reagents Kit(Applied Biosys-tems).Subsequently,2l g of cDNA was added to the real-time quantitative PCR system(Applied Biosystems) for evaluation of relative mRNA levels of Beclin1,LC3, eNOS,and ET-1,with b-actin as the internal control.The primers were followed as Table1.The relative expression of Beclin1,LC3,eNOS,and ET-1mRNA was deter-mined by normalizing the expression of each gene to b-actin gene following the22DD Ct method.

Western Blot Analysis

Protein expression of beclin1,LC3,p62,eNOS,and ET-1was analyzed by Western blot analysis.Whole protein concentration for loading was estimated by Bradford assay.Proteins were separated by SDS–PAGE and transferred onto PVDF membranes.After blocking with BSA,the membranes were incubated overnight at 4°C with anti-beclin1(1:500diluted),anti-LC3(1:1000 diluted),anti-p62(1:1000diluted),anti-eNOS(1:1000 diluted),anti-ET-1(1:1000diluted),or anti-b-actin (1:500diluted)antibodies.The corresponding peroxi-dase-conjugated secondary antibody was applied for2h and then enhanced chemiluminescence reagents were

used to detect the targeted antigen.The abundance of targeted protein was analyzed using Labwork image analysis software.All experiments were performed at least in triplicate.

Statistical Analysis

The data are presented as mean values ±SEM.The unpaired Student’s t test or ANOVA was used to evaluate the signi?cance of the differences.The p val-ues <0.05were considered to be statistically signi?-cant.RESULTS

Steady Laminar Shear Stress Promotes Cultured

Vascular Endothelial Cell Autophagy In the present study,we tested the hypothesis that steady laminar shear stress induces autophagy in ECs.Autophagosome markers beclin-1and LC3were measured to assess human vascular endothelial cell autophagy in response to steady laminar shear stress.After treatment with steady laminar shear stress,the expression of beclin-1and LC3was signi?cantly increased (p <0.05),particularly in the 15dynes/cm 2treatment group (p <0.01),in the form of upregula-tion of autophagy (Figs.2a–2f).We performed immunoblotting with anti-p62antibody.p62(also

known as SQSTM1)associates with LC3and ubiquitin and is degraded via the autophagic pathway.A de-crease in p62indicates increased autophagic degrada-tion,whereas an increase indicates inhibited autophagic degradation.Under exposure to steady laminar shear stress,protein levels of p62were decreased (p <0.05),particularly in the 15dynes/cm 2treatment group (p <0.01)(Figs.2g and 2h),indicat-ing that steady laminar shear stress increased auto-phagosomal turnover in endothelial cells,promoting the protective effect of autophagic recycling of cyto-plasmic contents.

E?ect of Autophagy on Cultured Vascular Endothelial Cells eNOS Expression Under Steady Laminar Shear

Stress Previous studies suggested that steady laminar shear stress stimulates vascular endothelial cell eNOS expression.1,23Consistent with those results,steady laminar shear stress treatment elicited a signi?cant upregulation of eNOS expression (Figs.3a–3c).Com-pared with steady laminar shear stress treatment alone,the autophagy inducer rapamycin pretreatment elicited an obvious increase in eNOS protein expression.When pretreated with autophagy inhibitor 3-MA,the expression of eNOS expression was obviously inhibited (p <0.01)in both the 5and 15dynes/cm 2treatment groups (Figs.3d–3

i).

E?ect of Autophagy on Cultured Vascular Endothelial Cells ET-1Expression Under Steady Laminar Shear

Stress ET-1is a potent endogenous vasoconstrictor and plays an important role in the progression of athero-sclerosis.4,16Consistent with previous reports,steady laminar shear stress inhibited vascular endothelial cell ET-1expression at both the mRNA (Fig.4a)and protein levels,particularly in the 15dynes/cm 2treat-ment group (Figs.4b and 4c).We then investigated whether autophagy intervention affected vascular endothelial cell https://www.wendangku.net/doc/a34316814.html,pared with steady laminar shear stress treatment alone,autophagy inducer rapamycin pretreatment exhibited a further

inhibition in ET-1protein expression.However,when pretreated with autophagy inhibitor 3-MA,the downregulation of ET-1was reversed in both the 5and 15dynes/cm 2treatment groups (Figs.4d–4i).

Steady Laminar Shear Stress Promotes Autophagy in

Rabbit Aorta Perfused Ex Vivo To ascertain the e?ect of steady laminar shear stress on endothelial cell autophagy,a rabbit common car-otid ex vivo perfused system was used.In agreement with the ex vivo cell perfusion results,steady laminar shear stress upregulated the expression of the vascular cell autophagic marker Beclin 1and LC at both

mRNA (Figs.5a and 5d)and protein levels (Figs.5b,5c,5e,and 5f).

Autophagy A?ects Rabbit Aorta eNOS Expression

Under Steady Laminar Shear Stress Treatment with 15dynes/cm 2increased the levels of both eNOS mRNA (Fig.6a)and protein (Figs.6b and 6c).However,the 5dynes/cm 2treatment upregulated only eNOS protein levels and not the mRNA levels,suggesting that eNOS activation responds to steady laminar shear stress with a different pattern,such that low steady laminar shear stress affects the eNOS pro-tein level,whereas physiological steady laminar shear

stress regulates both mRNA and protein levels.Under steady laminar shear stress,the expression of eNOS was further strengthened by the pretreatment with rapamycin and obviously inhibited by the pretreatment with 3-MA (Figs.6d–6i).

E?ect of Autophagy on Rabbit Aorta ET-1Expression

Under Steady Laminar Shear Stress The e?ect of autophagy on ET-1suppression in-duced by steady laminar shear stress at an organism level was investigated.Administration of steady lami-nar shear stress at either 5or 15dynes/cm 2signi?-cantly suppressed the expression of ET-1,in

in the 15dynes/cm 2group (Figs.7a–7c).When pre-treated with rapamycin or 3-MA,the expression of ET-1was further inhibited by rapamycin and was re-versed by 3-MA both in the 5and 15dynes/cm 2treatment groups (Figs.7d–7i),con?rming that autophagy results in the inhibition of ET-1expression under steady laminar shear stress.

DISCUSSION

Dynamic interaction between shear stress and endothelial cells in?uences not only disease progression but also the clinical outcomes of vascular diseases,

including atherosclerosis and aneurysm.To provide more e?ective prevention approaches and therapeutic interventions for such diseases,the relationship between shear stress and vascular remodeling and adaptation should be explored in greater detail.Autophagy has been demonstrated as one of the most crucial cellular functions in the regulation of cell sur-vival and death,and altered autophagic activity is associated with atherosclerosis.5,22Further,it is well known that steady laminar shear stress counters the resistance of formation and progression.However,it remains to be elucidated whether autophagy is regu-lated by steady laminar shear stress.Further,its role in the bene?t to endothelial cells induced by

laminar shear stress is not fully understood.In the present study,we demonstrated that autophagic activity is upregulated by steady laminar shear stress,contributing to increased expression of eNOS and decreased expression of ET-1.

Autophagy,acting as a pro-survival mechanism that protects cells under stress or poor nutrient conditions,degrades damaged cell components or aged proteins into basic biomolecules and drives a degradation–regeneration cycle.A recent report described ATG5‘‘knockout’’mice exhibiting an advanced atheroscle-rotic lesion.24Statins enhance coronary arterial myo-cyte autophagy to exert their bene?cial effects in atherosclerosis.27We speculated that disruption of vascular endothelial cell autophagy is the main cause of endothelial cell dysfunction.In this study,we observed that the expression of beclin 1and LC3was increased and the levels of p62was decreased after treatment with steady laminar shear stress for 1h,which indicated that steady laminar shear stress pro-motes autophagy.Young et al.31showed that laminar shear stress increased phosphorylation of adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK)and peaked at 1h.Activated AMPK might inhibit mTOR-dependent signaling and is a critic positive regulator of autophagy,11,12,18,20which means that AMPK path-way might play a critic role in steady laminar shear stress induced endothelial cell autophagy.Impaired production of nitric oxide (NO)is a hall-mark of endothelial dysfunction and promotes the development of cardiovascular disease.NO is gener-ated in endothelial cells by https://www.wendangku.net/doc/a34316814.html,Rocca et al.15showed that impaired vascular autophagy with aging plays an important role in impaired vascular tissues endothelium-dependent dilation and inhibition of autophagy increased oxidative stress and reduced NO production.In the present study,steady laminar shear stress upregulated eNOS mRNA and protein expres-sion in cultured endothelial cells and intact arteries.To investigate whether autophagy contributes to the upregulation of eNOS expression under steady laminar shear stress,we pretreated cultured endothelial cells and intact arteries with the autophagy inducer rapa-mycin or the autophagy inhibitor 3-MA.Rapamycin is an inhibitor of the Ser/Thr protein kinase ‘‘mammalian target of rapamycin’’(mTOR)and has been shown to exert both anti-proliferative and protective effects against the development of transplant vasculopathy and in-stent restenosis.3,32A previous study showed that rapamycin increased eNOS levels in low-shear regions,protecting these regions against atherosclero-sis.2In this study,we observed that steady laminar shear stress upregulated the expression of eNOS.When pretreated with autophagy inducer rapamycin,the expression of eNOS was obviously strengthened.However,when pretreated with autophagy

3-MA,the expression of eNOS was obviously inhibited under steady laminar shear stress.These results dem-onstrate that autophagy is involved in the regulation of eNOS expression under steady laminar shear stress,which supports the idea that the associations between autophagy and eNOS expression are mechanistically linked.Autophagy may,therefore,directly in?uence endothelial cell function by improving eNOS expres-sion.

ET-1,another speci?c marker of endothelial dys-function,acts as the natural counterpart of the vasodi-lator NO and is elevated in arteries with atherosclerotic lesions.A previous study showed that transgenic mice with endothelium-speci?c ET-1overexpression exhib-ited endothelial dysfunction,vascular remodeling,oxi-dative stress,and in?ammation.16Blocking ET-1has been proposed as a strategy for the prevention of ath-erosclerosis.21In this study,we observed that steady laminar shear stress inhibited endothelial cells ET-1expression.When pretreated with rapamycin,the expression of ET-1expression was further inhibited.However,when pretreated with 3-MA,the downregu-lation by steady laminar shear stress was reversed in both cultured endothelial cells and intact arteries.Studies showed that enhanced autophagy decreases the generation and accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS),9which may contributes to the downregulation of ET-1induced by steady laminar

stress.

FIGURE 6.Autophagy affects rabbit aorta eNOS expression induced by steady laminar shear stress.Steady laminar shear stress increased expression levels of both rabbit aorta eNOS mRNA (a)and protein (b,c).Rabbit aorta endothelial cells eNOS expression was increased by pretreatment with rapamycin and inhibited by pretreatment with 3-MA in both the 5and 15dynes/cm 2treatment group (d–i).

Autophagy Regulates Endothelial Cell eNOS and ET-1Expression

1985

Several limitations to our study need to be consid-ered.In this study,we only detected the relationship between laminar shear stress and endothelial cells autophagy.In vivo ,endothelial cells were not only exposed to laminar shear stress in ‘‘straight’’regions of vasculature,but also exposed to disturbed shear stress near arterial bifurcations,branch ostia and curvatures.Thus,more studies are required to determine the relationship between shear stress and autophagy and to elucidate the signaling pathways underlying the relationship.

The present study focused on autophagy and its role in vascular endothelial cell eNOS and ET-1expression under steady laminar shear stress.In this context,it appears that autophagy played a protective role in cul-tured vascular endothelial cells and intact arteries under an in vivo perfused system,promoting the expression of eNOS and inhibiting the expression of ET-1.These re-sults may shed light on the mechanisms by which shear stress forces modulate vascular homeostasis and pro-vide a strategy to ?ght against atherosclerosis via improving vascular endothelial cells autophagy.Future directions unraveling mechanisms that autophagy on endothelial cells function regulation is crucial to de?ne autophagy as a unique therapeutic target to ?ght against the development and progression of

atherosclerosis.

帕金森病中的自噬途径与关键药物靶点 欧阳亮, 张岚, 刘博* (四川大学华西医院, 生物治疗国家重点实验室, 生物治疗协同创新中心, 四川成都 610041) 摘要: 帕金森病 (PD) 是一种常见的神经退行性疾病。在过去几十年中, 对PD的发病机制的探索已有了较大的进步, 环境因素和遗传因素都会导致PD的发生, 然而它的具体发病机制仍然未知。最近的研究表明自噬过程或许与PD密切相关, 在许多PD患者和动物模型中都观察到了异常的自噬水平。此外, 一些PD相关蛋白, 如α-synuclein、Parkin和PINK1等都被发现参与自噬的调控, 被认为与PD的发病机制相关。本文综述了几种重要PD相关蛋白在自噬途径中的作用, 同时概述了通过调节自噬过程来治疗PD的潜在策略。 关键词: 自噬; 帕金森病; α-突触核蛋白; 线粒体自噬; 帕金森病治疗 中图分类号: R966 文献标识码:A 文章编号: 0513-4870 (2016) 01-0009-09 Autophagy pathways and key drug targets in Parkinson’s disease OUYANG Liang, ZHANG Lan, LIU Bo* (State Key Laboratory of Biotherapy, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, and Collaborative Innovation Center of Biotherapy, Chengdu 610041, China) Abstract: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder associated with aging. Great progresses have been made toward understanding the pathogenesis over the past decades. It seems that both genetic factors and environmental factors contribute to PD, while the precise pathogenesis still remains unknown. Recently, increasing evidence has suggested that autophagy dysregulation is closely related to PD. Dysregula-tion of the autophagic pathways has been observed in the brains of PD patients or in animal models of PD, and a number of PD-associated proteins, such as α-synuclein, Parkin and PINK1, were found to involve in autophagy, suggesting a link between autophagy and pathogenesis of PD. In this review, we summarized the role of PD-associated proteins in autophagy pathways. In addition, we described the efficacy of autophagy-modulating compounds in PD models and discussed promising strategies for PD therapy.

细胞自噬和肿瘤

细胞自噬和肿瘤 摘要:近年来,细胞自噬与肿瘤的关系是研究热点。研究表明,自噬是肿瘤的双刃剑;自噬调节剂与细胞毒性药物联用在临床应用上具有很大潜力。对于细胞自噬和癌症发生之间关系还需要更加深入的研究,这将会有助于人类更好地认识并最终攻克癌症。本文将针对细胞自噬在肿瘤发生过程的作用、主要的信号调节通路以及其在治疗中的作用进行简单介绍。 关键词:细胞自噬、肿瘤、信号调节通路、治疗 一、细胞自噬和肿瘤的关系 细胞自噬(autophagy)是指真核生物中的一些受损或衰老的蛋白质以及细胞器被双层膜结构的自噬小泡包裹后,送入溶酶体中进行降解并得以循环利用的过程。细胞自噬过程大致分为4个阶段:首先,细胞浆中出现游离前自噬泡,诱导起始与成核;前自噬泡包裹受损或衰老的蛋白质以及细胞器,逐渐发展成为由双层膜结构形成的自噬泡;自噬泡与溶酶体膜融合后,内膜及其包裹的物质进入溶酶体,被其中的酶水解;最后,溶酶体的物质分解为细胞生存所必需的组成成分,底物降解再循环。 肿瘤发生的机制很复杂,主要表现为细胞过度增殖,具有高代谢的特点,对营养和能量的需求很高;另外肿瘤细胞在恶劣的细胞外环境下(如代谢压力、缺氧、缺乏血供、养分及生长因子不足、抗肿瘤治疗等)具有很强的凋亡抵抗能力,逆境生存的能力极强。这些都有赖于肿瘤细胞的自噬活性。 正常生理情况下,细胞自噬能够及时清除细胞中产生的受损或衰老的蛋白质以及细胞器等,有利于细胞保持自稳状态。细胞自噬可以抑制细胞发生癌变,首先,细胞自噬可以清除坏死的细胞器,调整内源性的压力,从而稳定基因组,减少细胞向癌细胞的转变;其次,细胞自噬既可以加强细胞检验点的检查作用,又起到了稳定基因组的作用,从而减少了细胞的癌变。然而肿瘤一旦形成,细胞自噬又会为癌细胞提供更丰富的营养,促进肿瘤生长。不过,目前大多数研究者还是认为,细胞自噬是一种对抗细胞癌变的机制。(见图1)。[1] 图1、细胞自噬在肿瘤发生和发展中的角色 二、检测细胞自噬与细胞癌变的一般方法
