Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) α is widely expressed in the vasculature and has pleiotropic and lipid-lowering independent effects, but its role in the growth and function of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) during vascular pathophysiology is still unclear. Herein, VSMC-specific PPARα-deficient mice ( ) were generated by Cre-LoxP site-specific recombinase technology and VSMCs were isolated from mice aorta. PPARα deficiency attenuated VSMC apoptosis induced by angiotensin (Ang) II and hydrogen peroxide, and increased the migration of Ang II-challenged cells.
过氧化物酶体增殖物激活受体(PPAR)α在脉管系统中广泛表达,具有多效性和降脂独立效应,但其在血管病理生理过程中对血管平滑肌细胞(VSMC)生长和功能的作用仍不清楚。在此,通过Cre-LoxP位点特异性重组酶技术构建了VSMC特异性PPARα缺陷小鼠( ),并从小鼠主动脉中分离出VSMC。PPARα缺陷减弱了血管紧张素(Ang)II和过氧化氢诱导的VSMC凋亡,并增加了Ang II刺激细胞的迁移。
