SOX4 is a novel phenotypic regulator of endothelial cells in atherosclerosis revealed by single-cell analysis

Chak Kwong Cheng et al.

Summary: This study utilized single-cell RNA sequencing to explore the transcriptional landscape and heterogeneity of dysfunctional endothelial cells in atherosclerotic aortae. SOX4 was identified as a novel marker for atherosclerosis and was shown to promote atherogenesis and endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition. Hyperlipidemia-associated cytokines and oscillatory blood flow were found to upregulate SOX4 expression, while the anti-diabetic drug metformin suppressed SOX4 levels in endothelial cells.

Sodium Nitroprusside-Induced Activation of Vascular Smooth Muscle BK Channels Is Mediated by PKG Rather Than by a Direct Interaction with NO

Hristo Gagov et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that nitric oxide (NO) stimulates the activity of vascular smooth muscle potassium channels (BK channels) by activating protein kinase G (PKG), leading to an increase in outward current.

Phloretin ameliorates diabetes-induced endothelial injury through AMPK-dependent anti-EndMT pathway

Wenbo Mao et al.

Summary: In this study, it was found that phloretin could ameliorate endothelial damage caused by diabetes by activating AMPK and inhibiting the TGFβ-Smad2-Snail signaling pathway. It may serve as a potential therapeutic approach for diabetic cardiovascular complications.

Targeting endothelial dysfunction and inflammation

Li Wang et al.

Summary: Vascular endothelium plays a crucial role in maintaining vascular homeostasis and regulating vascular function through the release of vasoactive molecules. Imbalance between relaxing and contracting factors derived from the endothelium leads to endothelial dysfunction, which is a critical contributor in aging and chronic cardiometabolic disorders. Oxidative stress and inflammation are key players in endothelial dysfunction and are considered as potential targets for intervention in patients with cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.

A GLP-1 analog lowers ER stress and enhances protein folding to ameliorate homocysteine-induced endothelial dysfunction

Chak Kwong Cheng et al.

Summary: Exendin-4 attenuates endothelial endoplasmic reticulum stress induced by HHcy, leading to improved endothelial function through reduction of oxidative stress. AMPK-dependent ERO1 alpha upregulation is a key mechanism underlying the protective effects of exendin-4. AMPK activation promotes protein folding machinery in endothelial cells to suppress ER stress.

KLF2 Mediates the Suppressive Effect of Laminar Flow on Vascular Calcification by Inhibiting Endothelial BMP/SMAD1/5 Signaling

Juan Huang et al.

Summary: The study indicates that blood flow plays a crucial role in vascular calcification, with calcification more likely to occur in branched areas. KLF2 inhibits vascular calcification by regulating endothelial BMP/SMAD1/5 signaling pathway.

Inflammatory Mechanisms Contributing to Endothelial Dysfunction

Panagiotis Theofilis et al.

Summary: Maintenance of endothelial cell integrity is crucial for human health, as dysfunction can lead to various diseases. Activated and injured endothelial cells release inflammatory mediators and enter a pro-thrombotic state, ultimately promoting atherosclerosis progression. Various pathways and mechanisms contribute to endothelial dysfunction, highlighting the complexity of this process.

A high methionine and low folate diet alters glucose homeostasis and gut microbiome

Chak Kwong Cheng et al.

Summary: HHcy induced by HMLF diet in mice leads to progressive body weight loss, slight glucose intolerance, and insulin resistance. The altered gut microbiome profile and increased abundance of porphyromonadaceae family of bacteria in HHcy mice provide new insights into the pathogenesis of HHcy-related complications.
